Page/Page column 12, (2013/04/25)
The invention relates to a process for preparing jet fuel or jet fuel precursors which comprises the treatment of a charge derived from biomass, the said charge comprising at least one compound chosen from terpenes of formula [CH2=C(CH3)CH=CH2]n, in which n is an integer of from 2 to 12, the carbon chain of which is linear, cyclic or branched, or cyclic or branched terpenes as defined previously, which have been chemically modified by oxidation and/or rearrangement of the carbon backbone, the said process comprising a cycloaddition step (i) followed by a cracking and hydrogenation step (ii).
