Zusammenfassung:Methods and apparatuses for processing a renewable feedstock are provided herein. In an embodiment, a method for processing a renewable feedstock includes deoxygenating a stream of the renewable feedstock at a first pressure to form a stream of paraffins. The pressure of the stream of paraffins is reduced to a second pressure which is at least about 345 kPa less than the first pressure. Further, normal paraffins in the stream of paraffins are converted to form a stream of converted paraffins.
