Book Description:
|
While most resources on hydroprocessing concentrate on gas oil and lower boiling products, this book details the chemistry and the process modifications required for hydroprocessing heavy crude oils and residua. It explains how to obtain maximum yields of high-value hydrocarbon products using currently available technologies. With emphasis on selecting effective catalysts for cleaner and more efficient industrial fuel processes, the book covers heterogeneous catalyst preparation,...
More DescriptionWhile most resources on hydroprocessing concentrate on gas oil and lower boiling products, this book details the chemistry and the process modifications required for hydroprocessing heavy crude oils and residua. It explains how to obtain maximum yields of high-value hydrocarbon products using currently available technologies. With emphasis on selecting effective catalysts for cleaner and more efficient industrial fuel processes, the book covers heterogeneous catalyst preparation, catalyst loading, reactor systems, process variables, feedstock type, feedstock composition in operations design. It also provides examples of commercial processes and discusses methods of hydrogen production.
