    Abstract: A process for hydrotreating a renewable feedstock with improved carbon monoxide management is disclosed. A mixture of renewable feedstock and hydrocarbon feedstock is treated in a hydrotreating reactor to produce a hydrotreated effluent stream and contacting the hydrotreated effluent stream with a water gas shift catalyst bed to produce a shift reactor effluent stream. The shift reactor effluent stream is passed to a cold separator to recover a cold vapor stream and recycling the cold vapor stream having reduced concentration of carbon monoxide to the hydrotreating zone. The subject matter disclosed provides an improved process and apparatus to reduce the accumulation of CO by converting CO present in the hydrotreated effluent stream to CO2 using the water shift gas reaction.

    Abstract: Processes for pyrolyzing biomass. A catalyst is used to both pyrolyze and deoxygenate the biomass within the pyrolysis zone. A source of carbon monoxide is also passed to the pyrolysis reactor. The source of carbon monoxide may comprise a stream of gas that includes carbon monoxide, or a material capable of generating or being converted in carbon monoxide within the pyrolysis zone. The carbon monoxide may be used as a reactant for a water gas shift reaction or as a reducing agent to remove oxygen from oxygenated hydrocarbons. The catalyst preferably comprises iron (III) oxide.
