A method comprising the steps a) providing a starting material for thermal cracking, comprising at 1-100% by weight of the total weight of the thermal cracking feedstock, a renewable wax isomeric composition, the renewable wax isomeric composition at least 60% by weight of the total weight of the renewable isomeric paraffin composition comprises paraffins, the paraffins being 10-95% by weight isoparaffins, and the ratio of the% by weight amount of isoparaffins with more than three branches to the total weight .-% - amount of isoparaffins is less than 0.15, and from 0-99% by weight of the total weight of the thermal cracking feedstock of fossil naphtha, the sum of the% by weight amounts of the renewable isomeric wax composition and the fossil naphtha is at least 90% by weight of the total weight of the thermal cracking feedstock; and b) thermal cracking of the thermal cracking feedstock provided in step a) to form a cracked product comprising a mixture of hydrocarbons. |
