Abstract

The aim of this research was to produce a fuel fraction from catalytic hydrocracking process using Calcinated Sarulla Natural Zeolite (SNZ-Cal) as catalyst and Rubber seed oil as a feed. The methods used were the preparation and calcination of Sarulla Natural Zeolite (SNZ-Cal), catalytic hydrocracking using SNZ-Cal at 400 C, 450 C and 500 C with a variation of catalyst and rubber seed oil comprising of 1:2, 1:4 and 1:6 respecively. Finally, the liquid product was analyzed with Gas Chromatography. The result of this research shows that the optimum liquid product was treated at 400 C (1:2), 450 C (1:6) and 500 C (1:2) were 18.00%, 64.60% and 80.60% respectively. Moreover, the highest selectivity of bio-gasoline occurred at 400 C (1:2), 450 C (1:2) and 500 C (1:6) which were 78.16%, 76.46% and 82.57% consecutively. In essence, each temperature depicted a different amount of bio-gasoline with the highest result at 500 C (1:6).
