Abstract

Disclosed is a method for producing a quality lubricant base oil (meeting the standard of Group III or higher) comprising: decarbonylating mixed fatty acids derived from oils and fats of biological origin to produce mixed olefins; oligomerizing the mixed olefins to produce an olefinic lubricant base oil; and performing hydrogenation to remove olefins from the olefinic lubricant base oil.
