Catalyst deactivation is a complex phenomenon and identifying an appropriate deactivation model is a key effort in the catalytic industry and plays a significant role in catalyst design …
In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed and compared with a rigorous mathematical model (RMM) to estimate the performance of an industrial heavy …
In the current work, the operating conditions for the Fischer–Tropsch process were optimized using experimental testing, kinetic modelling, simulation, and optimization. The experiments …
In this paper, the focus is on upgrading the value of naphtha compounds represented by n- heptane (n-C7H16) with zero octane number using a commercial zeolite catalyst consisting …
The operation of reforming catalysts in a fixed bed reactor undergoes a high level of interaction between the operating parameters and the reaction mechanism. Understanding …
The liquid‐phase hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde over a Pt/SiO2 catalyst was investigated experimentally and theoretically. The experiments were conducted in a 300 …
Soil pollution from waste crude oil in emergency pits is a major problem at petroleum industry sites. In this work, extra-heavy waste crude oil was recovered from emergency pits …
There is increasing interest in kinetic models of catalytic refining processes, because of their importance in developing and improving these processes. In fact, the models can be used to …
