The hydroisomerization of a paraffinic hydrocarbon feedstock obtained from renewable sources is effectively achieved by passing the feedstock in the presence of hydrogen over a hydroisomerization catalyst comprising a crystalline metal silicate molecular sieve, in which a portion of the crystalline framework contains iron.

A lower olefin by using a zeolite catalyst, a composite catalyst capable of further extending the lifetime of catalytic activity, a method for producing the composite catalyst, a method for producing a lower olefin by using the composite catalyst, and a method for regenerating a composite catalyst in the method for producing a lower olefin are provided. The composite catalyst is a catalyst for producing a lower olefin from a hydrocarbon feedstock. This composite catalyst is constituted of a zeolite being a crystalline aluminosilicate containing gallium and iron or iron and further having a framework with 8- to 12-membered ring, and of silicon dioxide. By using the composite catalyst, a lower olefin can be continuously produced over a long period of time.
