Abstract

A method for producing hydrocarbons from glycerol. The method includes packing a catalyst comprising a noble metal and a support material into a reactor, introducing a reactant mixture containing glycerol into the reactor such that the reactant mixture containing methane is in close contact with the reactant mixture, and heating the reactant mixture containing glycerol to a temperature for a contact time.
