    Abstract: This invention relates to a new biofuel alternative to be used in aviation sector, starting from obtention and production routes of renewable sources compounds, that may act as load for aviation kerosene composition. Naphthenic compounds (cycloalkanes) obtained from renewable sources are used as enrichment or addition loads of aviation kerosene. The process is based on hydrogenolysis catalytic reactions, from hydroxycycloalkanes derevatives substrata, like menthol and isopulegol. The catalytic system is constituted of a physical mixture of hydrogenation heterogeneous catalysts, acid heterogeneous catalysts, and hydrogenating metallic catalysts in acid supports. The hydrogenation catalysts used envolve noble metals from groups 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 of periodic table, whose content ranges from 0.01-10%. The heterogeneous catalysts suitable acids are represented by acidic sulfonated polymer resins, protonated zeolites and sulfated zirconia.
