1. A process for the conversion of a lignocellulosic starting material into an aqueous phase and a hydrocarbon phase, wherein the lignocellulosic starting material being a whole and non-fractionated lignocellulosic material, an amorphous and unsupported sulfided nickel-molybdenum catalyst, and optionally a co-feed, are mixed and subjected to elevated pressure and a temperature in the interval of 350-450° C. in the presence of hydrogen gas, thereby converting the lignocellulosic starting material to the aqueous phase and the hydrocarbon phase.
