Our work "Continuous-flow hydroprocessing of long-chain fatty acids: reaction pathways and the impact of lignin-derived aromatics towards efficient deoxygenation" is now available in Catalysis Science & Technology (RSC)! 🎉 Authored by Rita Assis dos Santos, Arij Ben Hassine, Pedro José Sanches Filho, M. Joana Neiva Correia, and Pedro S. F. Mendes, this study established oleic acid reaction pathways under realistic continuous-flow conditions and explored how co-feeding guaiacol, a lignin-derived compound, impacts catalyst deactivation, but does not significantly affect the oleic acid-derived fingerprint, demonstrating the robustness of the lipid’s reaction pathways. These findings are a step forward in designing flexible hydroprocessing strategies for sustainable aviation fuel production ✈️🌱 📖
