Abstract: Tungstate-containing aluminum oxide is suitable as a catalyst support for hydrodeoxygenation of sunflower oil, ensuring 81-83 wt % yield of liquid products at 380°С, 4.0 MPa, and feed space velocity of 1 h<superscript>-1</superscript>. The catalyst acidity increases with increasing tungsten oxide content, leading to an increase in the content of decarboxylation/decarbonylation products and isoparaffins in the product mixture.
