10 Claims

1. A method to produce an aviation mixture, the method comprising:

receiving a renewable stream rich in comprising aromatic compounds of a renewable source, wherein the renewable stream comprises aromatic compounds and is obtained by converting vegetable oils, animal fats and/or fatty acid esters in a fluid catalytic cracking unit;

receiving a stream of fossil kerosene;

mixing the stream of fossil kerosene and the renewable stream to produce a mixed load;

homogenizing and feeding the mixed load into a reactor in a presence of hydrogen and NiMo sulfide catalyst supported on alumina, at a pressure of 40 to 45 bar, at a temperature between 300 and 330° C., and a space velocity of 3.5 to 4.0 to thereby produce the aviation mixture, the aviation mixture comprising at least 8% aromatics.
