Effect of temperature variation to product distribution, rate and deactivation of catalyst of tetrahydrifuran hydrodeoxygenation have been conducted using Pt/gAl 2 O 3 with aluminum enrichmen. Reaction was conducted by flow system. Product of reaction were analyzed as propane (C 3 ) and buthene derivate (C 4 ). At 350ºC, reaction product and rate constant were optimum. At higher temperature, product distribution was shift from C 4 to C 3 . Lowering pore size catalyst, surface area and acidity of catalyst were responsible to catalyst deactivation. Deactivation process was follow exponential regression.
