Abstract: A method of preparing a composition of alcohol esters of linear monocarboxylic acids with 6 to 26 carbon atoms from a vegetable or animal oil, neutral or acid, virgin or recycled, with monoalcohols having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, in the presence of a catalyst of nitrogen-containing metallophosphate type.

Abstract: The method for catalytic conversion of alcohols according to the present invention using a zinc oxide catalyst comprises a thermal pretreatment stage in an inert and/or reducing atmosphere at a temperature of at least 100° C., prior to the reaction stage.

Abstract: A catalyst with a mixed zinc and aluminium oxide base having a spinel structure surstoichiometric in zinc, in which part of the Zn atoms are in the octahedral position, a process for preparation of the same and use of the same in a process for preparation of a compound of linear monocarboxylic acid alcohol esters with 6-26 carbon atoms from a vegetable or animal oil, neutral or acid, virgin or recycled, with monoalcohols of 1-18 carbon atoms allowing an ester that can be used as a motor fuel or a heating fuel and a pure glycerine to be obtained directly in one or more steps,

Abstract: The invention relates to a novel hybrid organic-inorganic material containing an inorganic network of metal centres based on the element gallium, connected to each other by organic bridges, to the preparation and to the use thereof. The invention also relates to an intermediate solid obtained during the synthesis of said hybrid organic-inorganic material.

Abstract: A method of preparing a composition of alcohol esters of linear monocarboxylic acids with 6 to 26 carbon atoms from a vegetable or animal oil, neutral or acid, virgin or recycled, with monoalcohols having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, in the presence of a heterogeneous catalyst based on a hybrid solid with an organic-inorganic mixed matrix, allows to directly produce, in one or more stages, an ester that can be used as fuel and a pure glycerin.

Abstract: A method of preparing a composition of alcohol esters of linear monocarboxylic acids with 6 to 26 carbon atoms from a vegetable or animal oil, neutral or acid, virgin or recycled, with monoalcohols having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, in the presence of a catalyst combining at least a solid solution of ZnxAl2O(3+x) type, wherein x ranges between 0 and 1 (end points excluded), and free ZnO present between 7 and 30 mass %, allows to directly obtain, in one or more stages, an ester that can be used as fuel and a pure glycerin.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a composition of alcohol esters of linear monocarboxylic acids with 6 to 26 carbon atoms from a vegetable or animal oil, neutral or acid, virgin or recycled, with monoalcohols having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, in the presence of a phosphate type catalyst or of an organophosphorous compound of a metal selected from the group made up of zirconium, hafnium and titanium, allows to directly produce, in one or more stages, an ester that can be used as fuel and a pure glycerin.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for desulfurization of a non-oxidized hydrocarbon feedstock, comprising organic sulfur compounds, by adsorption, especially chemisorption of sulfur on a composition in bulk form consisting essentially of 70% by weight of zinc ferrite and optionally iron oxides or zinc oxides. The process is performed in the presence of hydrogen at a temperature of between 200° C. and 450° C.
