2. 1. Alkylation and Hydrodearomatization over Zeolite cCatalysts

   Author : Jun-Jun Yuan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acid catalysts; ZSM-5 catalysts; ethylbenzene; toluene; temperature; diesel fuel; hydrodearomatization; benzene; acidic protons; activity and selectivity; aqueous ethanol; Pt Y zeolite; gasoline; pressure; GC; diethylbenzene; Hydrocracking; SiO2 Al2O3 ratio; alkylation of aromatics; Brønsted acids;

   Abstract : The alkylation of aromatic compounds is widely used in the large-scale synthesis of petrochemicals, and a great variety of fine chemicals and intermediates. Acid catalysts used for alkylation of aromatic hydrocarbons are Brønsted acids containing acidic protons. READ MORE

4. 2. Hydroconversion of model Fischer‑Tropsch wax over noble metal/silica-alumina catalysts

   Author : Francesco Regali; Magali Boutonnet; J.W. Niemantsverdriet; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydroconversion; Fischer-Tropsch wax; n-hexadecane; bifunctional hydrocracking; hydrogenolysis; silica-alumina; platinum; palladium;

   Abstract : Synthetic fuels produced using the Fischer-Tropsch technology will play an important role in the future of the transportation sector. The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) allows converting synthesis gas (CO + H2) into fuels of outstanding quality. The synthesis gas can be obtained from different carbon sources: natural gas, coal and biomass. READ MORE

5. 3. Slurry Hydrotreatment of Biomass Materials over Metal Sulfide-based Supported and Unsupported Catalysts

   Author : You Wayne Cheah; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrotreatment; Kraft lignin; Transition metals; Slurry hydrocracking; Propylguaiacol; Advanced biofuels; MoS2; Reaction network; Pyrolysis oil; Unsupported TMS;

   Abstract : The scarcity of fossil feedstocks and the deterioration of the current global climate condition have prompted the search for reliable alternatives for fossil fuel replacement. Biomass feedstocks are abundant, carbon-rich, and renewable bioresources that can be used to produce renewable bio-oils that can fill the gap left by fossil-derived oils. READ MORE

6. 4. Energy savings for petroleum processing : Using mathematical models, optimal control and diagnostics

   Author : Esin Iplik; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; Ioanna Aslanidou; Mehmet Mercangöz; Mälardalens universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : Petroleum products are widely used as an energy supply, and the total production capacity of petroleum refineries is quite high. In this thesis, an energy intensive refinery process, hydroprocessing, is selected and evaluated in terms of its energy loss contributors. Digital solutions are discussed and demonstrated to reduce losses. READ MORE

7. 5. Kraft lignin valorization by hydrotreatment over Mo-based sulfided catalysts

   Author : Muhammad Abdus Salam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Char; Bio-oil; Kraft Lignin; Hydrodeoxygenation; Y-zeolite; Metal sulfide; Depolymerization; Acidity;

   Abstract : The production of green fuels and chemicals from bio-based feedstock can suppress the dependency on fossil resources and help mitigate global climate challenges. Kraft lignin is a thermochemically modified natural lignin obtained from the pulping process as a byproduct. READ MORE
