In this paper the crude distillation process of the liquid organic product obtained in the catalytic cracking of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis, Jacq) was studied in pilot scale , using the sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and red mud catalysts by varying the percentage of catalyst in 10% m/m and 15% m/m for the raw material used , an operating temperature of 450ºC in order to obtain fractions of biofuels (bio-gasoline, bio-kerosene and bio-oil) similar to fuels derived from being fixed oil. The catalysts were subjected to a dehydration pre-treatment for 2 hours in an oven at 300°C, subsequently the XRD, IR and TG were performed. Regarding raw materials, physical and chemical analysis, aiming to characterize palm oil were performed. The organic liquid products (PLOs) were subjected to unit operations of separation, decanting and simple filtration bench scale should then be performed physical-chemical and compositional analyzes. The temples were distilled in a Vigreux column six (06) stages, and the condensed fractions were collected according to the ranges of the distillation of gasoline (60ºC - 190ºC) , kerosene (190ºC - 235ºC ) and diesel (235°C - 370°C), later to be characterized. There was a better catalyst efficiency for sodium carbonate 15% w/w as reducing the acid value about 1.7 mgKOH/g , and a conversion of 97% by weight of the oil in PLO was noted also, by increasing the amount of catalyst that favors the obtaining of an end product with better quality. The red mud on the other hand, showed yields of up to 64% m/m products with a low acidity of about 62.90 mgKOH/g, comparing this result with literature data. Based on the final results verified the efficiency of catalysts, the catalyst which sodium carbonate gave products with low acidity and good characteristics for use as fuel.

In this work, a biofuels study was carried out by the pilot scale thermo-catalytic cracking process, of the residual fat from the fat boxes of the university restaurant of the Federal University of Pará (RU-UFPA), using activated red mud as a catalyst. The residual fat used in the experiments was treated by sieving, decantation, dehydration and storage, to be introduced into the cracking reactor. The red mud was subjected to a pre-treatment of dehydration in an oven at 100°C for 24 hours, then subjected to a chemical treatment with 0,5M, 1M and 2M hydrochloric acid solution (HCl). Subsequently calcination of this material was carried out at 1000°C for 2 hours, to be applied as a catalyst in the proportions 5%, 10% and 15% m/m. The cracking process was performed at a fixed temperature of 550°C, and the generated PLO was collected by reaction time 10 at 20, 40, 60 and 80 minutes, these were then characterized and subjected to fractional distillation. Distillation was performed on a Vigreux column with 12 stages, and condensed fractions were collected according to the distillation ranges of gasoline (45°C-175°C), kerosene (175°C-235°C), light diesel (235°C-305°C) and heavy diesel (>305°C), to be characterized later. The highest yield (PLO + gas) was from experiment 5 with 90%, prepared with 15% m/m catalyst treated with 1M HCl. Also presenting biofuels with better physical-chemical characteristics such as the acid value of gasoline in point 4 (9,4 mg KOH/g) and composites with the highest of 92.91% of total hydrocarbons for kerosene.
