Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To meet changing market demands that have stringent emission standards and to ensure proper performance in refinery units, evaluation of novel catalyst designs and results from material characterization and testing of catalysts are of crucial importance for refiners as well as for catalyst manufacturers. This book highlights recent developments in the application of refinery catalysts in selected units such as fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydrogen production for hydroprocessing units, hydrotreating, hydrocracking, and sustainable processing of biomass into biofuels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the twentieth century the technology employed by the petroleum refining industry has been advancing rapidly, yet it has generally escaped study. Whatever the explanation for its scholarly neglect, the advances that have been secured over the century have enabled the producers of petroleum products to meet the ever-increasing demands for their products throughout the world. No other manufactured goods are so universally and so cheaply available. This book concentrates on the technical changes that have been secured in the second half of this century, using as its basis the main petroleum refining process, Fluid Catalytic Cracking. Both technological and economic aspects are examined over the sixty years of the process's history; and, in a novel attempt, related the one to the other: an accomplishment that reveals more about the technology and the economics rather than either engineering or economic analysis would separately. Technology and economics are connected in the real world: in this study they are connected in their exposition. As in conventional economic history, technological improvements are summarized and their sources and consequences determined. In addition, the long-term pattern of costs and profits is displayed; and regular measurements are taken throughout, so that experience can be seen as the continuous unfolding of industrial progress.

Book excerpt: These proceedings reflect the important role of catalysis in petroleum refining and the effects of factors such as environmental legislation on the industry. They also show the emergence of significant scientific expertise in the Middle East - the cradle of the oil industry. Participants from all over the world took part in the meeting and the book contains a well-balanced selection of articles from both academia and industry. Current trends in the oil industry focused attention mainly on heavy end hydrotreating, but other processes also gained their share of attention. An invaluable feature of the meeting was the two panel discussions where participants took the opportunity to obtain advance on many real and immediate problems.

Book excerpt: This 140-page Report, the product of first-hand interviews and extensive research, provides executives, R&D managers, and investors with an in-depth analysis of the enormous global catalyst marketplace. Currently, more than 90% of the chemicals produced today are dependent on catalysts for manufacture. Readers are given an insider's view of the most recent developments at key R&D facilities in three market segments: heterogeneous, homogeneous, and biocatalysts which combine for over $3 trillion in goods and services yearly. Full contact information is provided enabling readers to pursue partnering and technology transfer discussions. Our experts predict new challenges ahead for catalyst producers, including more stringent environmental regulations for sulfur in fuels and mergers of mega-companies, like ExxonMobil and BP-Amoco-Arco. With this new Technical Insights Report, you have the expert guidance needed for navigating through this industry and identifying lucrative markets, promising technologies, and specific business opportunities.

Book excerpt: Refiners' efforts to conform to increasingly stringent laws and a preference for fuels derived from renewable sources have mandated changes in fluid cracking catalyst technology. Advances in Fluid Catalytic Cracking: Testing, Characterization, and Environmental Regulations explores recent advances and innovations in this important component of petroleum refining technology and evaluates how the industry has been changed by environmental regulations worldwide. Measurement, testing, and improvement Modern spectroscopic techniques continue to be essential to the understanding of catalyst performance and feedstock properties. The book contains a detailed review of the use of adsorption microcalorimetry to measure acidity, acid site density, and the strength of the strongest acid sites in heterogenous catalysts. It also discusses the use of 1H-NMR to characterize the properties of a FCCU feedstock. In addition, the book dedicates several chapters to pilot plant testing of catalysts and nontraditional feedstocks, maximizing and improving LCO (heating oil) production and quality, and improving FCCU operations. Complying with the EPA The EPA has identified the petroleum refining industry as a targeted enforcement area for the Clean Air Act (CAA) passed in 1970 and the CAA Amendments of 1990. The final chapters of the book examine the evolution of the EPA's attempts to encourage the refining industry to enter into voluntary consent decrees to comply with the CAA and the 1990 amendments. The book describes consent decree negotiations as well as FCC emissions (SOx, NOx, CO, PM) reduction technologies through consent decree implementations. Containing contributions from a panel of worldwide experts, the book demonstrates how the global shift toward environmentalism has engineered significant changes in the petroleum refining industry at a critical level.
