The Al2O3 supported monometallic Co, Ni and Mo and bimetallic CoMo and NiMo catalysts were compared in rapeseed oil hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reaction after in situ sulfidation. The reaction was described by five pseudo-first order rate constants (k (1)-k (5)) for the simplified reaction scheme: triglycerides (Tgs) to octadecane (k (1)); Tgs to oxygenates (Oxs; i.e., sum of fatty acids, fatty alcohols, and esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols) (k (2)); Tgs to heptadecane (k (3)); Oxs to octadecane (k (4)), and Oxs to heptadecane (k (5)). The empirical pseudo-first order rate constant of the hydrocarbons (Hcs) product formation (k (Hc) ) increased in the order Ni/Al2O3 similar to Co/Al2O3 < CoMo/Al2O3 similar to Mo/Al2O3 ae NiMo/Al2O3 showing hence a significant synergy between Ni and Mo. All monometallic catalysts exhibited k (1) and k (3) practically zero and the reaction proceeded essentially through the formation of the oxygenated reaction intermediates (high k (2)). The Co/Al2O3 and Ni/Al2O3 catalyzed selectively hydrodecarboxylation (HDC) of fatty acids (high k (5)). Over Mo/Al2O3, the HDO pathway, however, was nearly the exclusive one (high k(4)). CoMo/Al2O3 and NiMo/Al2O3 catalysts yielded both HDO and HDC products suggesting partial synergy in the relative selectivity HDO/HDC between Co(Ni) and Mo.
