Abstrakt: Biomass is one of the most important renewable energy resources to produce sustainable liquid fuel. This study presents the process of hydrodeoxygenation/hydrocracking on a model of oxygenated compounds such as fatty acid methyl esters using a bifunctional catalyst that contains a metallic function based on copper and palladium and an acid function type ZMS-5. Hydrocracking of methyl esters on the bifunctional catalyst CuPd/γ-Al2O3–ZSM-5 realized on a fix bed reactor led to obtaining of n-alkanes, iso-alkanes, saturated and aromatic cyclic hydrocarbons with 9 to 18 carbon atoms. The conversion reach 100% value at temperature higher than 350 °C. The yield in n-alkanes varies with a maximum at temperature of 325 °C, meanwhile, the yield in iso-alkanes remains approx. constant. The cyclization and aromatization reactions are favored at temperatures higher than 350 °C. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
