Patent number: 9850440Abstract: A process and system for separating bio-gasoline, bio-diesel and bio-fuel oil fractions from a bio-oil, and for producing a renewable gasoline including at least in part the bio-gasoline fraction, is provided. The process comprises separating bio-oil into a bio-gasoline fraction and a heavy fraction based on their boiling points. At least a portion of the bio-gasoline fraction is directly blended with a petroleum-derived gasoline, without any prior hydrotreatment, to thereby provide a renewable gasoline composition.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2015Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: Inaeris Technologies, LLCInventors: Maria Magdalena Ramirez Corredores, Vicente Sanchez Iglesias

Patent number: 9447338Abstract: Renewable fuels are produced in commercial quantities and with enhanced efficiency by integrating a bio-oil production system with a conventional petroleum refinery so that the bio-oil is co-processed with a petroleum-derived stream in the refinery. The techniques used to integrate the bio-oil production system and conventional petroleum refineries are selected based on the quality of the bio-oil and the desired product slate from the refinery.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2014Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: Inaeris Technologies, LLCInventors: Maria Magdalena Ramirez Corredores, Vicente Sanchez Iglesias

Patent number: 8968670Abstract: A process and system for separating and upgrading bio-oil into renewable fuels is provided. The process comprises separating bio-oil into a light fraction and heavy fraction based on their boiling points. The heavy fraction is then subjected to hydrotreatment, while the light fraction is not subjected to hydrotreatment. At least a portion of the un-hydrotreated light fraction and at least a portion of the hydrotreated heavy fraction are blended with petroleum-derived gasoline to thereby provide a renewable gasoline, and at least a portion of the hydrotreated heavy fraction is blended with petroleum-derived diesel to thereby provide a renewable diesel.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2013Date of Patent: March 3, 2015Assignee: KiOR, Inc.Inventors: Maria Magdalena Ramirez Corredores, Vicente Sanchez Iglesias

Patent number: 8853484Abstract: A process and system for separating and upgrading bio-oil into renewable fuels is provided. The process comprises separating bio-oil into a light fraction, an optional intermediate fraction, and heavy fraction based on their boiling points. The light fraction and optional intermediate fraction can be upgraded via hydrotreatment to produce a renewable gasoline and a renewable diesel, which may be combined with their petroleum-derived counterparts. The heavy fraction may be subjected to cracking and further separated into light, intermediate, and heavy fractions in order to increase the yield of renewable gasoline and renewable diesel.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2011Date of Patent: October 7, 2014Assignee: KiOR, Inc.Inventors: Maria Magdalena Ramirez Corredores, Vicente Sanchez Iglesias
