  • Conventional jet fuel is produced from crude oil and contains a complex mixture of hydrocarbons that typically have 6 to 18 carbon atoms.

A significant proportion, usually of the order of less than 5% of aromatic hydrocarbons, are polycyclic (i.e. they contain two or more aromatic rings) and generally of the naphthalene type. Such compounds are harmful to health (e.g. carcinogenic) and have poor combustion properties.

Description

Composition renouvelable de carburéacteur à teneur élevée en composés naphténiques Renewable jet fuel composition with high naphthenic content
DOMAINE TECHNIQUE TECHNICAL AREA
La présente invention concerne le domaine des carburéacteurs et en particulier un carburéacteur issu de charges renouvelables à teneur élevée en composés naphténiques. The present invention relates to the field of jet fuels and in particular to jet fuel derived from renewable feedstocks with a high content of naphthenic compounds.
CONTEXTE DE L’INVENTION BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Le carburant conventionnel de type carburéacteur est produit à partir de pétrole brut et contient un mélange complexe d'hydrocarbures qui ont typiquement 6 à 18 atomes de carbone. Ces hydrocarbures comprennent des alcanes linéaires et ramifiés, des cycloalcanes et des hydrocarbures aromatiques. En raison de la charge d’origine pétrolière et des procédés de production, le carburant conventionnel de type carburéacteur, appelé également jet, contient typiquement jusqu'à 25 % en volume d'hydrocarbures aromatiques, plus spécifiquement typiquement de 10% à 25% en volume d'hydrocarbures aromatiques. Une proportion significative, habituellement de l'ordre de moins de 5 % d’hydrocarbures aromatiques, sont polycycliques (c'est-à-dire qu’ils contiennent deux ou plusieurs cycles aromatiques) et généralement de type naphtalènes. De tels composés sont nocifs pour la santé (par exemple cancérigènes) et ont de mauvaises propriétés de combustion. Conventional jet fuel is produced from crude oil and contains a complex mixture of hydrocarbons that typically have 6 to 18 carbon atoms. These hydrocarbons include linear and branched alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons. Due to the petroleum-based feedstock and production processes, conventional jet fuel, also called jet fuel, typically contains up to 25% by volume of aromatic hydrocarbons, more specifically typically 10% to 25% by volume. volume of aromatic hydrocarbons. A significant proportion, usually of the order of less than 5% of aromatic hydrocarbons, are polycyclic (i.e. they contain two or more aromatic rings) and generally of the naphthalene type. Such compounds are harmful to health (e.g. carcinogenic) and have poor combustion properties.
Les contraintes environnementales, économiques et énergétiques ont encouragé la diversification des ressources énergétiques et le développement de nouveaux carburants en particulier dans le domaine de l’aviation. Environmental, economic and energy constraints have encouraged the diversification of energy resources and the development of new fuels, particularly in the field of aviation.
Les carburants renouvelables dérivés de la matière biologique sont une alternative aux combustibles fossiles conventionnels. Les jets conventionnels peuvent être mélangés à des bases paraffiniques issues de charges renouvelables telles que prévues par la norme D7566-21 , permettant ainsi la production de carburants d’aviation alternatifs. Les bases pour carburant d’aviation issues de charges renouvelables pouvant être incorporées à du jet fossile sont : Renewable fuels derived from biological matter are an alternative to conventional fossil fuels. Conventional jets can be mixed with paraffinic bases from renewable feedstocks as provided for by standard D7566-21, thus allowing the production of alternative aviation fuels. The bases for aviation fuel from renewable feedstocks that can be incorporated into fossil fuels are:
- les kérosènes paraffiniques synthétiques [SPK], issus de procédés tels que le procédé Fischer-Tropsch, l’hydrotraitement d’esters et d’acides gras [HEFA- SPK] ou produit par la voie Alcohol-to-jet (transformation d’alcool en kérosène) [ATJ-SPK], - synthetic paraffinic kerosenes [SPK], resulting from processes such as the Fischer-Tropsch process, the hydrotreatment of esters and fatty acids [HEFA-SPK] or produced by the Alcohol-to-jet route (transformation of alcohol into kerosene) [ATJ-SPK],
- les isoparaffines synthétiques produites par hydrotraitement à partir de sucres fermentés [SIP-HFS], les kérosènes aromatiques synthétiques obtenus par alkylation d’aromatiques légers de source non-pétrolière [SPK/A], - synthetic isoparaffins produced by hydrotreatment from fermented sugars [SIP-HFS], synthetic aromatic kerosenes obtained by alkylation of light aromatics from non-petroleum sources [SPK/A],
- les kérosènes de synthèse obtenus à partir de la conversion hydrothermale d’esters d’acide gras et d’acide gras, et - synthetic kerosenes obtained from the hydrothermal conversion of fatty acid esters and fatty acids, and
- les kérosènes paraffiniques synthétiques [SPK] obtenus à partir d’hydrocarbures, d’esters et d’acides gras hydrotraités. - synthetic paraffinic kerosenes [SPK] obtained from hydrocarbons, esters and hydrotreated fatty acids.
A court terme, les carburants renouvelables sont introduits en mélange avec les carburants fossiles, mais il sera rapidement nécessaire d’utiliser des carburants renouvelables purs, sans les mélanger à du jet fossile. Il est donc nécessaire de développer des formulations de carburants renouvelables qui répondent aux spécifications en vigueur et/ou qui soient compatibles avec les avions actuels et futurs In the short term, renewable fuels are introduced mixed with fossil fuels, but it will quickly be necessary to use pure renewable fuels, without mixing them with fossil fuels. It is therefore necessary to develop renewable fuel formulations that meet current specifications and/or are compatible with current and future aircraft.
Actuellement, les bases de carburant d’aviation renouvelables ne peuvent pour la plupart être utilisées seules en raison de leur composition très éloignée des jets fossiles, qui posent notamment des problèmes de compatibilité avec les matériaux des éléments avec lesquels le carburant est en contact. Ceci provient du fait que ces bases sont principalement constituées de paraffines. Elles présentent donc de bonnes propriétés de combustion, mais posent des problèmes d’utilisation dans les avions actuels, notamment des problèmes de compatibilité de matériaux, de faible densité, de faible pouvoir lubrifiant, de température d’auto-inflammation trop basse. Une possibilité pour résoudre ce problème est d’ajouter une base aromatique à la base paraffinique. L’article - Kramer S, Andac G, Heyne J, Ellsworth J, Herzig P and Lewis KC (2022) Perspectives on Fully Synthesized Sustainable Aviation Fuels: Direction and Opportunities. Front. Energy Res. 9:782823. doi: 10.3389/fenrg.2021 .782823 - présente ainsi les voies probables de production de SAF dits 100% drop-in, par mélange de bases paraffiniques et de bases aromatiques. Toutefois, même si les composés aromatiques améliorent la lubrification et la tenue des joints, ils ont un impact négatif sur les émissions en combustion, principalement sur la formation de particules fines et la présence de trainées. Currently, most renewable aviation fuel bases cannot be used alone due to their composition, which is very different from fossil jets, which in particular pose compatibility problems with the materials of the elements with which the fuel is in contact. This comes from the fact that these bases are mainly made up of paraffins. They therefore have good combustion properties, but pose problems of use in current aircraft, in particular problems of material compatibility, low density, low lubricity, too low auto-ignition temperature. One possibility to solve this problem is to add an aromatic base to the paraffinic base. The article - Kramer S, Andac G, Heyne J, Ellsworth J, Herzig P and Lewis KC (2022) Perspectives on Fully Synthesized Sustainable Aviation Fuels: Direction and Opportunities. Forehead. Energy Res. 9:782823. doi: 10.3389/fenrg.2021.782823 - thus presents the probable routes for producing so-called 100% drop-in SAF, by mixing paraffinic bases and aromatic bases. However, even if aromatic compounds improve lubrication and seal performance, they have a negative impact on combustion emissions, mainly on the formation of fine particles and the presence of streaks.

None of these compositions makes it possible to optimize their combustion quality while preserving, or even improving, their properties, such as their compatibility with materials, in particular with seals, their density, their lubricating power, their viscosity and/or their autoignition temperature.

On entend par base paraffinique un carburant synthétique paraffinique produit à partir de matière première d’origine non pétrolière compatible avec la spécification ASTM D7566:21 et contenant au moins 95% en masse de composés paraffiniques. Paraffinic base means a synthetic paraffinic fuel produced from raw material of non-petroleum origin compatible with the ASTM D7566:21 specification and containing at least 95% by mass of paraffinic compounds.
Ledit carburant synthétique paraffinique est avantageusement un kérosène paraffinique synthétique (SPK) renouvelable issu d’un hydrotraitement d’esters et d’acides gras (SPK-HEFA) ou issu d’un procédé Fischer Tropsch (SPK-FT) ou issu d’un procédé de transformation d’alcool en kérosène isoparaffinique (SPK-ATJ). Said synthetic paraffinic fuel is advantageously a renewable synthetic paraffinic kerosene (SPK) resulting from a hydrotreatment of esters and fatty acids (SPK-HEFA) or resulting from a Fischer Tropsch process (SPK-FT) or resulting from a process for converting alcohol into isoparaffinic kerosene (SPK-ATJ).
Le carburant synthétique paraffinique de la présente invention est ainsi un carburant renouvelable obtenu exclusivement à partir de composés d’origine non fossile. The synthetic paraffinic fuel of the present invention is thus a renewable fuel obtained exclusively from compounds of non-fossil origin.
Le carburant synthétique paraffinique renouvelable SPK-HEFA est compatible avec la spécification ASTM D7566:21 Annexe 2. SPK-HEFA Renewable Synthetic Paraffin Fuel is compatible with ASTM D7566:21 Annex 2.
Le carburant synthétique paraffinique renouvelable SPK-HEFA peut être produit à partir d'huile(s) d'origine naturelle par un procédé d'hydrogénation et de désoxygénation d'esters d'acides gras et d'acides gras libres et du traitement ultérieur du produit comprenant l'hydrocraquage, ou l'hydroisomérisation, ou l'isomérisation, ou une combinaison de ces étapes, et peut inclure d'autres procédés de raffinage conventionnels. En d'autres termes, le carburant synthétique paraffinique renouvelable SPK-HEFA est produit à partir de l’hydrotraitement d'esters et d'acides gras d’une huile d’origine naturelle. SPK-HEFA renewable synthetic paraffinic fuel can be produced from oil(s) of natural origin by a process of hydrogenation and deoxygenation of fatty acid esters and free fatty acids and subsequent processing of the product comprising hydrocracking, or hydroisomerization, or isomerization, or a combination of these steps, and may include other conventional refining processes. In other words, SPK-HEFA renewable paraffinic synthetic fuel is produced from the hydrotreatment of esters and fatty acids from an oil of natural origin.
Une huile d'origine naturelle est définie comme une huile d'origine biomasse et ne contenant aucune huile minérale. Dans la description « huile(s) d'origine naturelle » désigne indifféremment les huiles, les graisses et leurs mélanges. La ou lesdites huiles d'origine naturelle peuvent contenir une ou plusieurs huiles choisies parmi les huiles végétales, les graisses animales, préférentiellement les huiles hautement saturées non comestibles, les huiles usagées, les sous-produits du raffinage d'huile(s) végétale(s) ou d'huile(s) animale(s) contenant les acides gras libres, les tallols et les huiles produites par des bactéries, des levures, des algues, des procaryotes ou des eucaryotes. Les huiles végétales appropriées sont par exemple l'huile de palme, l'huile de palmiste, l'huile de soja, l'huile de colza (colza ou canola), l'huile de tournesol, l'huile de lin, l'huile de son, l’huile de riz, l'huile de maïs, l'huile d'olive, l'huile de ricin, l’huile de sésame, l’huile de pin, l’huile d'arachide, l’huile de moutarde, l’huile de carinata, l’huile de chanvre, l’huile de noix de coco, l’huile de babasu, l’huile de coton, l’huile de linola, l’huile de jatropha. Les graisses animales comprennent le suif, le saindoux, la graisse (graisse jaune et brune), l'hu ile/la graisse de poisson, la matière grasse, les graisses de lait. An oil of natural origin is defined as an oil of biomass origin and containing no mineral oil. In the description “oil(s) of natural origin” refers indifferently to oils, fats and their mixtures. Said oil(s) of natural origin may contain one or more oils chosen from vegetable oils, animal fats, preferably highly saturated inedible oils, used oils, by-products of the refining of vegetable oil(s) or animal oil(s) containing free fatty acids, tall oils and oils produced by bacteria, yeast, algae, prokaryotes or eukaryotes. Suitable vegetable oils are, for example, palm oil, palm kernel oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil (rapeseed or canola), sunflower oil, linseed oil, bran oil, rice oil, corn oil, olive oil, castor oil, sesame oil, pine oil, peanut oil, mustard oil, carinata oil, hemp oil, coconut oil, babasu oil, cottonseed oil, linola oil, jatropha oil. Animal fats include tallow, lard, grease (yellow and brown fat), fish oil/fat, shortening, milk fat.
Les sous-produits du raffinage des huiles végétales ou animales sont des sous- produits contenant des acides gras libres qui sont éliminés des graisses et huiles brutes par neutralisation ou distillation sous vide ou à la vapeur. Un exemple typique est le PFAD (Palm Fatty Acid Distillate). Les huiles usagées comprennent les huiles de cuisson usagées (huiles alimentaires usagées) et les huiles récupérées à partir des eaux résiduelles, telles que les graisses/huiles de vidange, les huiles de gouttière, les huiles d'égout, par exemple des stations d'épuration des eaux, et les graisses usagées de l'industrie alimentaire. Les tall oil, y compris les tall oil bruts, les tall oil distillés (DTO) et les acides gras de tall oil (TOFA), de préférence le DTO et le TOFA, peuvent également être utilisés dans la présente invention. Le tall oil, ou autrement appelé tallol, est un sous-produit liquide du procédé Kraft de transformation du bois, permettant d'isoler d'une part la pâte de bois utile à l'industrie papetière. Le tall oil est essentiellement obtenu lorsque les conifères sont utilisés dans le procédé Kraft. Après traitement des copeaux de bois avec du sulfure de sodium en solution aqueuse, le tall oil isolé est alcalin. Ce dernier est ensuite acidifié avec de l'acide sulfurique pour produire du tall oil brut. La ou les huiles d'origine naturelle utilisées dans la présente invention comprennent également des huiles produites par des micro-organismes, soit des micro-organismes naturels soit des micro-organismes génétiquement modifiés, tels que des bactéries, des levures, des algues, des procaryotes ou des eucaryotes. En particulier de telles huiles peuvent être récupérées par des méthodes d'extraction mécanique ou chimique bien connues. By-products of vegetable or animal oil refining are by-products containing free fatty acids which are removed from crude fats and oils by neutralization or vacuum or steam distillation. A typical example is PFAD (Palm Fatty Acid Distillate). Waste oils include used cooking oils (waste cooking oils) and oils recovered from waste water, such as grease/drainage oils, gutter oils, sewage oils, e.g. from sewage stations. water purification, and used fats from the food industry. Tall oils, including crude tall oil, distilled tall oil (DTO) and tall oil fatty acids (TOFA), preferably DTO and TOFA, can also be used in the present invention. Tall oil, or otherwise called tall oil, is a liquid by-product of the Kraft wood processing process, making it possible to isolate wood pulp useful for the paper industry. Tall oil is mainly obtained when conifers are used in the Kraft process. After treatment of wood chips with sodium sulfide in aqueous solution, the isolated tall oil is alkaline. The latter is then acidified with sulfuric acid to produce crude tall oil. The oil(s) of natural origin used in the present invention also include oils produced by microorganisms, either natural microorganisms or genetically modified microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts, algae, prokaryotes or eukaryotes. In particular, such oils can be recovered by well-known mechanical or chemical extraction methods.
Le carburant synthétique paraffinique renouvelable SPK-FT est issu d’un procédé de Fischer-Tropsch et peut être produit à partir de biomasse solide. Il est compatible avec la spécification ASTM D7566:21 Annexe 1 . La conversion thermochimique de la biomasse (gazéification et synthèse Fisher-Tropsch), aussi appelée BtL (Biomass to Liquid), comprend les étapes suivantes : conditionnement de la biomasse (préparation, trituration, torréfaction), gazéification de la biomasse (obtention d’un gaz de synthèse), purification du gaz de synthèse, synthèse Fisher-Tropsch pour transformer le gaz en biocarburant de synthèse. The SPK-FT renewable paraffinic synthetic fuel comes from a Fischer-Tropsch process and can be produced from solid biomass. It is compatible with the ASTM D7566:21 Annex 1 specification. Thermochemical conversion of biomass (gasification and Fisher-Tropsch synthesis), also called BtL (Biomass to Liquid), includes the following steps: conditioning of the biomass (preparation, crushing, roasting), gasification of the biomass (obtaining a synthesis gas), purification of the synthesis gas, Fisher-Tropsch synthesis to transform the gas into synthetic biofuel.
Quel que soit le procédé précité utilisé, le carburant synthétique paraffinique peut avoir été soumis à une étape d’isomérisation et/ou de distillation avant son incorporation dans la composition de l’invention, afin d’éliminer les paraffines linéaires les plus lourdes qui ne permettraient pas de respecter les propriétés à froid du jet, en particulier le point de disparition des cristaux qui doit être inférieur à -47°C pour le Jet A1 . Les composés les plus légers peuvent également être séparés par distillation, afin de respecter, notamment, les propriétés de volatilité et du point éclair du jet A1 . Quel que soit le procédé précité utilisé, le carburant synthétique paraffinique renouvelable peut présenter une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes : Whatever the aforementioned process used, the synthetic paraffin fuel may have been subjected to an isomerization and/or distillation step before its incorporation into the composition of the invention, in order to eliminate the heaviest linear paraffins which do not would not allow the cold properties of the jet to be respected, in particular the disappearance point of the crystals which must be lower than -47°C for Jet A1. The lightest compounds can also be separated by distillation, in order to respect, in particular, the properties of volatility and flash point of jet A1. Regardless of the aforementioned process used, the renewable paraffinic synthetic fuel may have one or more of the following characteristics:
- une teneur en paraffines supérieure à 90% en masse, - a paraffin content greater than 90% by mass,
- une teneur en cycloparaffines inférieure à 10 % en masse, - a cycloparaffin content of less than 10% by mass,
- un point de congélation inférieur à -30°C, de préférence inférieur à -40°C, par exemple inférieur à -47°C, - a freezing point lower than -30°C, preferably lower than -40°C, for example lower than -47°C,
- une densité à 15°C comprise entre 730 et 780kg/m3, - a density at 15°C of between 730 and 780 kg/m 3 ,
- un intervalle de distillation de 145°C à 315°C, - a distillation range of 145°C to 315°C,
- une teneur en isoparaffines de 70 % en masse ou plus. - an isoparaffin content of 70% by mass or more.
Le carburant synthétique paraffinique renouvelable SPK-ATJ correspond entre autre à la spécification ASTM D7566:21 Annexe 5 mais peut également être produit à partir de tout alcool de 1 à 6 atomes de carbone. Le carburant renouvelable SPK-ATJ est obtenu par déshydratation d’alcools pour produire des oléfines, puis par oligomérisation des oléfines pour obtenir des molécules hydrocarbonées insaturées dans la plage de température d’ébullition du SAF. Ces molécules hydrocarbonées insaturées sont ensuite hydrogénées pour produire la base paraffinique. The SPK-ATJ renewable paraffinic synthetic fuel corresponds, among other things, to the ASTM D7566:21 Annex 5 specification but can also be produced from any alcohol of 1 to 6 carbon atoms. SPK-ATJ renewable fuel is obtained by dehydrating alcohols to produce olefins, then oligomerizing the olefins to obtain unsaturated hydrocarbon molecules in the boiling temperature range of SAF. These unsaturated hydrocarbon molecules are then hydrogenated to produce the paraffinic base.
Base naphténique selon l’invention Naphthenic base according to the invention
La base naphténique en C8-C16 est produite par hydrogénation d’une base aromatique en C8-C16, la base aromatique étant telle que définie ci-dessous. The C8-C16 naphthenic base is produced by hydrogenation of a C8-C16 aromatic base, the aromatic base being as defined below.
L’hydrogénation de la base aromatique en C8-C16 hydrogène partiellement ou totalement les composés aromatiques. The hydrogenation of the C8-C16 aromatic base partially or completely hydrogenates the aromatic compounds.
L’hydrogénation de la base aromatique en C8-C16 peut être mise en œuvre sur la base aromatique seule ou en mélange avec d’autres composés, en particulier en présence de la base paraffinique selon l’invention. L’hydrogénation de la base aromatique en C8-C16 peut donc être mise en œuvre lorsque la base aromatique est mélangée avec la base paraffinique selon l’invention. The hydrogenation of the C8-C16 aromatic base can be carried out on the aromatic base alone or in mixture with other compounds, in particular in the presence of the paraffinic base according to the invention. The hydrogenation of the C8-C16 aromatic base can therefore be carried out when the aromatic base is mixed with the paraffinic base according to the invention.
L’hydrogénation est par exemple réalisée dans un ou plusieurs réacteurs en lit fixe (descendant ou ascendant) et en phase mixte, la fraction à hydrogéner étant principalement en phase liquide. Hydrogenation is for example carried out in one or more reactors in a fixed bed (descending or ascending) and in mixed phase, the fraction to be hydrogenated being mainly in the liquid phase.
L’hydrogénation est par exemple effectuée à une température comprise entre 50°C et 350°C, notamment entre 100°C et 300°C. Elle est réalisée sous une pression de préférence supérieure à 10 bara et notamment comprise entre 20 bara et 80 bara. The hydrogenation is for example carried out at a temperature between 50°C and 350°C, in particular between 100°C and 300°C. It is carried out under a pressure preferably greater than 10 bara and in particular between 20 bara and 80 bara.
Un flux d’hydrogène est alimenté dans le ou chaque réacteur en mélange avec le courant de base aromatique à hydrogéner. Le rapport du débit volumique du flux d’hydrogène au débit volumique de base aromatique (sans compter le flux recyclé) à hydrogéner est compris avantageusement entre 50 NL/L et 3000NL/L, notamment entre 100 NL/L et 500 NL/L. L’hydrogène peut être ajouté au courant de base aromatique en plusieurs étages le long du lit catalytique. La vitesse spatiale horaire est comprise avantageusement entre 0.5 et 3 et notamment entre 1 et 2 h’1. L’excès d’hydrogène peut être recyclé dans la zone réactionnelle après séparation et compression. A stream of hydrogen is fed into the or each reactor mixed with the aromatic base stream to be hydrogenated. The ratio of the volume flow of the hydrogen flow to the volume flow of aromatic base (not counting the recycled flow) to be hydrogenated is advantageously between 50 NL/L and 3000NL/L, in particular between 100 NL/L and 500 NL/L. Hydrogen can be added to the aromatic base stream in several stages along the catalyst bed. The hourly space speed is advantageously between 0.5 and 3 and in particular between 1 and 2 h'1 . Excess hydrogen can be recycled into the reaction zone after separation and compression.
La réaction est mise en œuvre en présence d’au moins un catalyseur comprenant un ou plusieurs métaux du groupe VIII (typiquement Pt, Pd, Ni) supporté sur un support tel que la silice, l’alumine ou tout mélange de ces deux composés ou du carbone. La réaction peut également être mise en œuvre en présence d’un catalyseur de type sulfure contenant un élément du groupe VIB (Cr, Mo, W) et un élément du groupe VI 11 B (Fe, Ru, Co, Os, Co, Rh, Ir, Pd, Ni, Pt) ou des mélanges de ces deux groupes de métaux. The reaction is carried out in the presence of at least one catalyst comprising one or more group VIII metals (typically Pt, Pd, Ni) supported on a support such as silica, alumina or any mixture of these two compounds or carbon. The reaction can also be carried out in the presence of a sulfide type catalyst containing an element from group VIB (Cr, Mo, W) and an element from group VI 11 B (Fe, Ru, Co, Os, Co, Rh , Ir, Pd, Ni, Pt) or mixtures of these two groups of metals.
L’étape d’hydrogénation est suivie de préférence d’une étape de séparation des composés légers, généralement réalisée par strippage ou distillation. Cette étape de séparation permet de produire une coupe hydrogénée de type C8-C16, conforme pour incorporation dans le carburant aviation. The hydrogenation step is preferably followed by a step for separating the light compounds, generally carried out by stripping or distillation. This separation step makes it possible to produce a hydrogenated cut of type C8-C16, suitable for incorporation into aviation fuel.
Selon une variante, l’hydrogénation de la base aromatique est totale. Cela signifie que les composés aromatiques contenus dans la base aromatique sont hydrogénés à plus de 99%. According to one variant, the hydrogenation of the aromatic base is complete. This means that the aromatic compounds contained in the aromatic base are more than 99% hydrogenated.
Selon une autre variante, l’hydrogénation de la base aromatique est partielle. De préférence, entre 10% et 99%, de préférence entre 10% et 90% en masse des composés aromatiques contenus dans la base aromatique à hydrogéner, de préférence entre 30% en masse et 80% en masse des composés aromatiques contenus dans la base aromatique à hydrogéner, sont hydrogénés en composés naphténiques. L’hydrogénation partielle peut être obtenue en choisissant les conditions opératoires pour n’hydrogéner qu’une fraction des composés aromatiques, ou bien en ne soumettant à l’étape d’hydrogénation qu’une fraction de la base aromatique, la fraction non hydrogénée est alors mélangée à la fraction totalement hydrogénée. According to another variant, the hydrogenation of the aromatic base is partial. Preferably, between 10% and 99%, preferably between 10% and 90% by mass of the aromatic compounds contained in the aromatic base to be hydrogenated, preferably between 30% by mass and 80% by mass of the aromatic compounds contained in the base aromatic to be hydrogenated, are hydrogenated to naphthenic compounds. Partial hydrogenation can be obtained by choosing the operating conditions to hydrogenate only a fraction of the aromatic compounds, or by subjecting only a fraction of the aromatic base to the hydrogenation step, the non-hydrogenated fraction is then mixed with the fraction totally hydrogenated.
Selon cette variante, la base naphténique comprend un mélange de composés aromatiques et de composés naphténiques. According to this variant, the naphthenic base comprises a mixture of aromatic compounds and naphthenic compounds.
Selon cette variante, la base naphténique comprend de préférence au moins 60% en masse de composés naphténiques, de préférence de 70% à 95% en masse de composés naphténiques, préférentiellement de 75% à 95% en masse de composés naphténiques.

La base aromatique en C8-C16 est utilisée pour préparer la base naphténique selon l’invention.

The C8-C16 aromatic base is used to prepare the naphthenic base according to the invention. In certain embodiments, the aromatic base is also added as such in the composition according to the invention, in order to adjust the content of aromatic compounds in the composition to the required specifications.

Etape i) : production d’un biocarburant Step i): production of a biofuel
La production du biocarburant selon l’étape i) peut être mise en oeuvre par conversion d’au moins un bioalcool en C1 -C6, dans un procédé catalytique. Le procédé catalytique peut être réalisé sur un lit d'aluminosilicate, de préférence de type zéolithe. The production of the biofuel according to step i) can be carried out by conversion of at least one C1 -C6 bioalcohol, in a catalytic process. The catalytic process can be carried out on a bed of aluminosilicate, preferably of the zeolite type.

- Du méthanol obtenu à partir de biomasse : - Methanol obtained from biomass:
La biomasse peut notamment comprendre les combustibles ligneux provenant de forêts et de terres boisées naturelles (par exemple, la sciure de bois), les résidus agricoles (par exemple, les balles de riz, le fumier de paille), les cultures énergétiques qui sont cultivées exclusivement pour la production d'énergie (par exemple, le maïs et le palmier à huile), les déchets urbains (par exemple, les déchets de bois, riz, fumier de paille), les cultures énergétiques qui sont cultivées exclusivement pour la production d'énergie (par exemple, le maïs et le palmier à huile), les déchets urbains (par exemple, les déchets solides municipaux et les eaux usées) et le combustible de biomasse dérivé de déchets (par exemple, les granulés de bois). Le méthanol d’origine renouvelable peut notamment être obtenu par conversion d’un gaz synthétique riche en CO/H2, ce gaz synthétique étant issu de la biomasse. La biomasse peut par exemple être gazéifiée pour produire un gaz synthétique (ou « syngas » en anglais) riche en CO/H2, ce gaz synthétique étant ensuite converti en méthanol en présence d’un catalyseur. Un procédé de ce type est par exemple décrit dans le document WO2018134853A1. Un gaz synthétique convenant à une conversion ultérieure en méthanol peut encore être obtenu par oxydation partielle en présence de dioxygène d’un biogaz contenant du méthane et du CO2, ce biogaz résultant par exemple de la digestion anaérobie de biomasse en présence d’un ou plusieurs microorganismes. Un procédé de ce type est par exemple décrit dans le document W02019060988A1. Biomass may include wood fuels from natural forests and woodlands (e.g. sawdust), agricultural residues (e.g. rice husks, straw manure), energy crops that are grown exclusively for energy production (e.g. corn and oil palm), urban waste (e.g. wood waste, rice, straw manure), energy crops that are grown exclusively for the production of energy (e.g. corn and oil palm), urban waste (e.g. municipal solid waste and sewage) and waste-derived biomass fuel (e.g. wood pellets). Methanol of renewable origin can in particular be obtained by conversion of a synthetic gas rich in CO/H2, this synthetic gas coming from biomass. Biomass can for example be gasified to produce a synthetic gas (or “syngas” in English) rich in CO/H2, this synthetic gas then being converted into methanol in the presence of a catalyst. A method of this type is for example described in document WO2018134853A1. A synthetic gas suitable for subsequent conversion into methanol can also be obtained by partial oxidation in the presence of dioxygen of a biogas containing methane and CO2, this biogas resulting for example from the anaerobic digestion of biomass in the presence of one or more microorganisms. A process of this type is for example described in document W02019060988A1.
- Du méthanol obtenu à partir de dioxyde de carbone : Plusieurs voies de transformation existent. On peut citer par exemple la conversion catalytique de dioxyde de carbone en méthanol en présence d’hydrogène. Une autre voie consiste à convertir le dioxyde de carbone en monoxyde de carbone par électroconversion ou par réaction du gaz à l’eau inverse en présence d’hydrogène. Le monoxyde de carbone est alors converti par conversion catalytique en méthanol, en présence d’hydrogène. L’hydrogène utilisé pour les différentes opérations décrites précédemment est obtenu notamment par reformage du méthane à la vapeur, par réaction du gaz à l’eau, ou est produit par électrolyse à partir d’énergies renouvelables tel que l’énergie solaire, le vent, la géothermie, les vagues ou les courants. - Methanol obtained from carbon dioxide: Several transformation routes exist. For example, we can cite the catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide into methanol in the presence of hydrogen. Another route is to convert carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide by electroconversion or by reverse gas-water reaction in the presence of hydrogen. Carbon monoxide is then converted by catalytic conversion into methanol, in the presence of hydrogen. The hydrogen used for the various operations described above is obtained in particular by steam reforming of methane, by reaction of gas with water, or is produced by electrolysis from renewable energies such as solar energy, wind , geothermal energy, waves or currents.
- Du bioéthanol produit à partir de la fermentation éthanolique par l’action fermentaire de micro-organismes, de levures et/ou de bactéries d’au moins une matière première d’origine végétale : - Bioethanol produced from ethanolic fermentation by the fermentative action of micro-organisms, yeasts and/or bacteria of at least one raw material of plant origin:
Le bioéthanol peut être avantageusement être obtenu par : Bioethanol can advantageously be obtained by:
- fermentation anaérobie d’un substrat riche en sucres issu de biomasse, ou - anaerobic fermentation of a substrate rich in sugars derived from biomass, or
- fermentation anaérobie d’un gaz comprenant du CO, lequel peut être issu de biomasse ou non. - anaerobic fermentation of a gas comprising CO, which may or may not come from biomass.
Pour la fermentation anaérobie d’un substrat riche en sucres, les sucres sont composés des chaines de 6 ou 5 carbones, comme le glucose, le saccharose (dimère de glucose et de fructose), le xylose et l’arabinose. For the anaerobic fermentation of a substrate rich in sugars, the sugars are composed of chains of 6 or 5 carbons, such as glucose, sucrose (dimer of glucose and fructose), xylose and arabinose.
Ce substrat peut par exemple comprendre, ou provenir directement des plantes agroalimentaires, de la canne à sucre, de la betterave sucrière, du sorgho sucrier, ou par dépolymérisation de l’amidon du maïs, du blé, de l’orge, du seigle, du sorgho, du triticale, de la pomme de terre, de la patate douce, du manioc, et/ou de la cellulose et de l’hémicellulose de la biomasse lignocellulosique. This substrate can for example include, or come directly from agri-food plants, sugar cane, sugar beet, sugar sorghum, or by depolymerization of starch from corn, wheat, barley, rye, sorghum, triticale, potato, sweet potato, cassava, and/or cellulose and hemicellulose of lignocellulosic biomass.
Le substrat riche en sucres peut aussi être issu de biomasse lignocellullosique par un traitement comprenant (i) une étape de séparation de la lignine, de la cellulose et de l’hémicellulose contenus dans la biomasse lignocellullosique, suivie (ii) d’une étape de conversion de la cellulose et/ou de l’hémicellulose en sucres. L’obtention de ce type de substrat à partir de biomasse lignocellulosique est bien connue de l’homme du métier. Le substrat riche en sucres est ensuite soumis à la fermentation, par exemple en utilisant des microorganismes. The sugar-rich substrate can also be derived from lignocellullosic biomass by a treatment comprising (i) a step of separating the lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose contained in the lignocellullosic biomass, followed (ii) by a step of conversion of cellulose and/or hemicellulose into sugars. Obtaining this type of substrate from lignocellulosic biomass is well known to those skilled in the art. The sugar-rich substrate is then subjected to fermentation, for example using microorganisms.
De l’éthanol peut également être produit par fermentation anaérobie d’un gaz comprenant du CO. Le substrat est alors un substrat gazeux (un gaz) contenant du CO. Ce substrat gazeux peut être un sous-produit d'un procédé industriel, comme la fabrication de produits en métal ferreux, notamment les aciéries, la fabrication de produits non ferreux, les procédés de raffinage du pétrole, la gazéification du charbon et/ou de la biomasse ou biochar, la production d'énergie électrique, la production de noir de carbone, la production d'ammoniac, la production de méthanol, la fabrication de coke, le craquage catalytique (en particulier lors de la régénération du catalyseur le monoxyde de carbone est produite) et le reformage du méthane. Ethanol can also be produced by anaerobic fermentation of a gas comprising CO. The substrate is then a gaseous substrate (a gas) containing CO. This gaseous substrate may be a by-product of an industrial process, such as the manufacturing of ferrous metal products, including steel mills, the manufacturing of non-ferrous products, petroleum refining processes, gasification of coal and/or biomass or biochar, production of electrical energy, production of carbon black, production of ammonia, production of methanol, manufacturing of coke, catalytic cracking (particularly when catalyst regeneration carbon monoxide is produced) and methane reforming.
Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, le substrat gazeux peut provenir de la gazéification de la biomasse, comme les sous-produits de la biomasse obtenus au cours de l'extraction et du traitement de produits alimentaires. Le processus de gazéification implique une combustion partielle de la biomasse dans un apport restreint d'air ou d'oxygène. Le gaz résultant comprend généralement principalement du CO et du H2, avec des volumes minimes de CO2, de méthane, d'éthylène et d'éthane. La teneur en CO du substrat gazeux est typiquement de 15% à 100% en volume, de 15% à 95% en volume, de 40% à 95% en volume, de 40% à 60% en volume, et de 45% à 55% en volume ou est dans tout intervalle défini par deux de ces limites. In other embodiments, the gaseous substrate may come from the gasification of biomass, such as biomass byproducts obtained during the extraction and processing of food products. The gasification process involves partial combustion of biomass in a restricted supply of air or oxygen. The resulting gas typically comprises primarily CO and H2, with minor volumes of CO2, methane, ethylene and ethane. The CO content of the gaseous substrate is typically 15% to 100% by volume, 15% to 95% by volume, 40% to 95% by volume, 40% to 60% by volume, and 45% to 95% by volume. 55% by volume or is in any interval defined by two of these limits.
Tout microorganisme capable de fermenter un substrat gazeux comprenant du CO pour produire de l'éthanol peuvent être utilisé. Any microorganism capable of fermenting a gaseous substrate comprising CO to produce ethanol can be used.

La biomasse peut par exemple être gazéifiée pour produire un gaz de synthèse (ou « syngas » en anglais) riche en CO/H2, ce gaz synthétique étant ensuite converti en méthanol en présence d’un catalyseur. Un procédé de ce type est par exemple décrit dans le document WO2012003901 . Biomass can for example be gasified to produce a synthesis gas (or “syngas” in English) rich in CO/H 2 , this synthetic gas then being converted into methanol in the presence of a catalyst. A process of this type is for example described in the document WO2012003901.

C2 comprend 61% en volume d’HEFA conforme à la base paraffinique a) selon l’invention et 39% en volume de la base naphténique b). C2 comprises 61% by volume of HEFA conforming to the paraffinic base a) according to the invention and 39% by volume of the naphthenic base b).
La composition de la base naphténique b) est présentée dans le tableau 1 suivant, et a été déterminée par une méthode GC2D. The composition of naphthenic base b) is presented in the following Table 1, and was determined by a GC2D method.

L’ajout de la base naphténique b) à une base paraffinique a) permet donc d’obtenir des compositions présentant des propriétés améliorées. En particulier, l’ajout de de la base naphténique b) améliore de manière surprenante la viscosité à - 40°C de la base paraffinique, ainsi que sa lubrifiance (BOCLE). Ceci montre qu’il est possible de remplacer au moins une partie de la base aromatique, fréquemment utilisée en combinaison avec les bases paraffiniques, par une base naphténique, et ainsi réduire la formation de particules fines et la présence de trainées. The addition of naphthenic base b) to a paraffinic base a) therefore makes it possible to obtain compositions with improved properties. In particular, the addition of naphthenic base b) surprisingly improves the viscosity at - 40°C of the paraffinic base, as well as its lubricity (BOCLE). This shows that it is possible to replace at least part of the aromatic base, frequently used in combination with paraffinic bases, by a naphthenic base, and thus reduce the formation of fine particles and the presence of streaks.

La base naphténique b’) d’origine fossile comprend des composés ayant un nombre de carbone moyen plus élevé que la base naphténique b) selon l’invention utilisée dans l’exemple 1 . La composition C3* présente une viscosité trop élevée, et n’est pas conforme à la norme ASTM D7566. The naphthenic base b') of fossil origin comprises compounds having a higher average carbon number than the naphthenic base b) according to the invention used in example 1. The C3* composition has too high a viscosity and does not comply with the ASTM D7566 standard.
