Methods for producing C10-C30 hydrocarbons from fatty compounds are provided in which at least a portion of the hydrogen required to accomplish the conversion is generated from by-products of the conversion process. Light hydrocarbons, especially propane, produced during the conversion of triglyceride compounds are used to generate hydrogen which is used in the conversion process thereby reducing the need for outside hydrogen sources.

What is claimed is: 1. A process for producing C10-C30 hydrocarbons comprising: (a) contacting i) a fluid comprising at least one fatty material and at least one feed hydrocarbon, and ii) hydrogen with a catalyst in a reaction vessel under conditions sufficient for converting at least a portion of
What is claimed is: 1. A process for producing C10-C30 hydrocarbons comprising: (a) contacting i) a fluid comprising at least one fatty material and at least one feed hydrocarbon, and ii) hydrogen with a catalyst in a reaction vessel under conditions sufficient for converting at least a portion of said at least one fatty material into one or more C10-C30 hydrocarbons and propane; (b) separating at least a portion of said propane from said one or more C10-C30 hydrocarbons; (c) generating hydrogen from said separated portion of propane in step (b); and (d) recycling said generated hydrogen from step (c) to said reaction vessel of step (a), wherein said at least one fatty material is selected from the group consisting of triglycerides, dialycerides, monoalycerides, and free fatty acids, wherein said at least one feed hydrocarbon having a boiling point of between about 80° F. to about 1000° F., and wherein step (c) generates at least about 50% of the hydrogen required by step (a). 2. The process according to claim 1, wherein said hydrogen generation step comprises passing said separated portion of propane through a steam reformer. 3. The process according to claim 2, wherein said hydrogen generation step further comprises passing the product of said steam reformer though a water gas shift reactor. 4. The process according to claim 1, wherein said at least one feed hydrocarbon is present in said fluid at a level of between about 0.1 to about 99.9 weight %. 5. The process according to claim 1, further comprising supplying an amount of make-up hydrogen to the reactor in addition to said generated hydrogen. 6. The process according to claim 5, wherein said amount of make-up hydrogen supplied to the reactor based at least in part on the level of saturation of the at least one fatty material. 7. The process according to claim 1, wherein said catalyst comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of Group VIB and Group VIII metals on a porous support. 8. The process according to claim 7, wherein said catalyst comprises cobalt and molybdenum. 9. The process according to claim 8, wherein said porous support comprises alumina and/or a zeolite. 10. The process according to claim 9, wherein said catalyst comprises cobalt and molybdenum on a zeolite support. 11. The process according to claim 1, wherein said at least one fatty material is selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils, yellow grease, animal fats and mixtures thereof. 12. The process according to claim 1, wherein said fluid comprises between about 0.1 to about 99.9 weight % of said at least one fatty material. 13. The process according to claim 1, wherein said separated portion of C1-C6 hydrocarbons comprises propane. 14. The process according to claim 1, further comprising removing at least one impurity from said generated hydrogen prior to feeding said generated hydrogen to the reactor. 15. The process according to claim 1, wherein said process generates at least about 10 moles of hydrogen for each mole of fatty material converted in step (a). 16. A process for producing C10-C30 hydrocarbons comprising: (a) contacting i) a fluid comprising at least one fatty material and at least one feed hydrocarbon, and ii) hydrogen with a hydrotreating catalyst in a reaction vessel under conditions sufficient for converting at least a portion of said at least one fatty material into one or more C10-C30 hydrocarbons and propane; (b) separating at least a portion of said propane from said C10-C30 hydrocarbons; (c) steam reforming said separated portion of propane thereby generating hydrogen; and (d) recycling said generated hydrogen from step (c) to said reaction vessel of step (a), wherein said at least one fatty material is selected from the group consisting of triglycerides, diglycerides, monoglycerides, and free fatty acids, wherein said at least one feed hydrocarbon having a boiling point of between about 80° F. to about 1000° F., and wherein step (c) generates at least about 50% of the hydrogen required by step (a). 17. The process according to claim 16, step (c) further comprising passing the product of said steam reforming through a water gas shift reactor thereby generating an additional amount of hydrogen. 18. The process according to claim 16, wherein said at least one feed hydrocarbon is present in said fluid at a level of between about 0.1 to about 99.9 weight %. 19. The process according to claim 16, further comprising supplying an amount of make-up hydrogen to the reactor in addition to said generated hydrogen. 20. The process according to claim 19, wherein said amount of make-up hydrogen supplied to the reactor based at least in part on the level of saturation of the at least one fatty material. 21. The process according to claim 16, wherein said catalyst comprises at least one member selected from the group consisting of Group VIB and Group VIII metals on a porous support. 22. The process according to claim 21, wherein said catalyst comprises cobalt and molybdenum. 23. The process according to claim 22, wherein said porous support comprises alumina and/or a zeolite. 24. The process according to claim 23, wherein said catalyst comprises cobalt and molybdenum on a zeolite support. 25. The process according to claim 16, wherein said at least one fatty material is selected from the group consisting of vegetable oils, yellow grease, animal fats, and mixtures thereof. 26. The process according to claim 16, wherein said fluid comprises between about 0.1 to about 99.9 weight % of said at least one fatty material. 27. The process according to claim 16, further comprising removing at least impurity from said generated hydrogen prior to feeding said generated hydrogen to the reactor. 28. The process according to claim 16, wherein said process generates at least about 10 moles of hydrogen for each mole of fatty material converted in step (a).
