Abstract The Fluid Catalytic Cracking unit (FCC) is a key process that plays an important
technical and economical role in the refining industry. Over the past years, there has been …

Selectively removing the trace amount of ethyne in ethylene is of great significance for the
utilization of ethylene in downstream processing. Selective hydrogenation of ethyne to …

H-Oil gas oils have a higher density and higher nitrogen content, and consequently much
lower reactivity than straight-run vacuum gas oils during fluid catalytic cracking (FCC). The …

Heavy petroleum industries, including the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit, are useful for
producing fuels but they are among some of the biggest contributors to global greenhouse …

The problems of catalyst deactivation and optimization of the mixed feedstock become more
relevant when the residues are involved as a catalytic cracking feedstock. Through …

With an unabated global petrochemical growth, more sustainable production methods for
production of materials and fuels are essential in a decarbonised future. Although Carbon …

The fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process continued to be the major source of olefins
production with minimum CO2 emissions and high energy efficiency. It produces …

Abstract Wax produced during Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) has no sulfur, nitrogen and
aromatic contents and could be an attractive material to produce high quality transportation …

A mechanistic model on catalyst deactivation by coke formation in a continuous stirred tank
reactor (CSTR) has been developed in the paper. Catalyst deactivation by coke formation …

This work presents a steady-state one-dimensional model of the FCC riser considering the
vaporisation of the gas oil feed and subsequent cracking reactions. The evaporation of …
