BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

With the petroleum exploitation of oil year by year, oil reserves are gradually declining. According to the statistics of BP Statistical Review of World Energy in 2018, petroleum can only be produced in 50.2 years at the current oil exploitation speed. Petroleum is not only an important energy substance, but also the most important basic raw material of chemical products, among which gasoline, diesel oil, kerosene and other products produced by petroleum are important energy substances, and ethylene, propylene and aromatic hydrocarbons are important chemical raw materials. Fossil energy based on petroleum is non-renewable, so it is of great practical significance to use renewable raw materials to produce chemical products such as gasoline, diesel oil, ethylene and propylene. In addition, if a country is subject to economic sanctions or military blockade, it is of great strategic significance to use bio-oil for catalytic cracking.


Bio-oil is a kind of renewable energy with a wide range of sources, which comes from photosynthesis of plants directly or indirectly.
