    This book provides much information of interest to anyone working in the petroleum industry or studying catalyst preparation and characterization in industrial or university laboratories. It contains both review articles and papers reporting progress concerning hydrotreating catalysts which together provide an up-to-date picture of this interesting field. The use of modern spectroscopic techniques in catalyst characterization is described and new concepts such as microbial upgrading and the use of crystallography data in catalyst design are presented.

  2. Accelerated Deployment of Nanostructured Hydrotreating Catalysts [electronic resource].

    Washington, D.C. : United States. Dept. of Energy. Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy ; Oak Ridge, Tenn. : distributed by the Office of Scientific and Technical Information, U.S. Dept. of Energy, 2009

    This factsheet describes a research project whose goal is to develop and manufacture a novel hydrotreating nanocatalyst to reduce energy use and improve performance in oil re-refining. A further goal is to demonstrate that a new nanocatalyst can be rapidly designed and developed on a time scale that impacts energy-intensive, high-capital industries with low margins.

  3. Experimental methods for evaluation of hydrotreating catalysts

    Hoboken, NJ : John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2020.

    "Experimental methods for evaluation of hydrotreating catalysts focuses on detailed descriptions of experimental procedures that are used for testing and screening of hydrotreating catalysts, making emphasis on step-by-step methodologies, calculations, treatment of data, and interpretation of results. It describes experimental procedure at different levels of experimentation, such as: glass reactor, batch reactor, small-scale tubular reactor, medium-scale tubular reactor, large-scale tubular reactor, continuous stirred tank reactor, and ebullated-bed reactor, using model compounds, middle distillates and heavy oil. Each chapter includes detailed description of the experimental setup and procedure, analytical methods, calculations, examples of catalyst testing, characterization of catalyst and liquid products, and interpretation of results. Experimental methods for evaluation of hydrotreating catalysts is oriented to be a reference book for researchers, PhD students, post-doctorate students, catalyst manufacturers, professors, to help them carry out proper experiments for catalyst evaluation at different reaction scales, as well as to cover part of the content of a series of courses of different carriers at undergraduate and postgraduate levels"--Presents detailed information and study cases on experiments on hydrotreating catalysts for the petroleum industry Catalytic hydrotreating (HDT) is a process used in the petroleum refining industry for upgrading hydrocarbon streams-removing impurities, eliminating metals, converting asphaltene molecules, and hydrocracking heavy fractions. The major applications of HDT in refinery operations include feed pretreatment for conversion processes, post-hydrotreating distillates, and upgrading heavy crude oils. Designing HDT processes and catalysts for successful commercial application requires experimental studies based on appropriate methodologies. Experimental Methods for Evaluation of Hydrotreating Catalysts provides detailed descriptions of experiments in different reaction scales for studying the hydrotreating of various petroleum distillates. Emphasizing step-by-step methodologies in each level of experimentation, this comprehensive volume presents numerous examples of evaluation methods, operating conditions, reactor and catalyst types, and process configurations. In-depth chapters describe experimental setup and procedure, analytical methods, calculations, testing and characterization of catalyst and liquid products, and interpretation of experiment data and results. The text describes experimental procedure at different levels of experimentation-glass reactor, batch reactor, continuous stirred tank reactor, and multiple scales of tubular reactors-using model compounds, middle distillates and heavy oil. This authoritative volume: Introduces experimental setups used for conducting research studies, such as type of operation, selection of reactor, and analysis of products Features examples focused on the evaluation of different reaction parameters and catalysts with a variety of petroleum feedstocks Provides experimental data collected from different reaction scales Includes experiments for determining mass transfer limitations and deviation from ideality of flow pattern Presents contributions from leading scientists and researchers in the field of petroleum refining Experimental Methods for Evaluation of Hydrotreating Catalysts is an indispensable reference for researchers and professionals working in the area of catalytic hydrotreating, as well as an ideal textbook for courses in fields such as chemical engineering, petrochemical engineering, and biotechnology.
