Abstract

The present invention discloses a process for the conversion of phenolics into aromatic hydrocarbons. In more detail, the present invention refers to a process for the selective hydrodeoxygenation of phenolic feeds into aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, alkylbenzenes and others. The selective catalytic hydrodeoxygenation is performed in absence of external supply of molecular hydrogen.
