dc.description.abstractIn recent years, there has been a surge of interest in transforming biomass into fuel, driven by its potential as the only realistic renewable carbon resource. Several conversion methods have been explored to achieve this, including gasification for producing synthesis gas, fast pyrolysis or hydrothermal liquefaction for obtaining bio-oils, and hydrolysis for generating aqueous sugars. Bio-oils offer environmental benefits due to their lower CO2 emissions, but their direct use as fuels is hindered by limitations such as thermal instability, high viscosity and acidity, and low calorific value. Consequently, advancements in treatment methods are necessary before bio-oils can be used as direct fuels. This review focuses on the catalytic hydrotreatment of bio-oils, which has been shown to be an effective approach for the removal of heteroatoms at moderate temperatures (between 300 and 450 °C) but at high pressures (up to 20 MPa). Oxygenated compounds are transformed into H2O, and N and S are transformed into NH3 and H2S, respectively. The analysis examines how process temperature, residence time, hydrogen pressure, solvent selection, and type of catalyst influence the properties of the improved bio-oil. Mo/W sulfide-supported catalysts have been traditionally used as active phases in hydrotreatment processes, as the presence of S limits catalyst deactivation, while the presence of Ni or Co as promoters enhances hydrogenation reactions. New research trends are exploring alternative catalyst formulations, such as metal phosphides, carbides, nitrides, and mesoporous materials as supports with controlled acid-basic properties.en
