Secondary cracking reactions are critical challenge in the hydrocracking processes as they
increase light distillates yield at the expense of middle distillates which is detrimental 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 …

An analysis of the reaction pathways developed during the hydrocracking of vacuum gas oil
(VGO) was carried out using kinetic models based on parallel and in-series reaction …

The valorization of post-consumer waste plastic in a refinery is an attractive initiative to avoid
environmental problems caused by the poor plastic waste management. The modification of …

The hydrocracking of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) blended with vacuum gas oil (VGO)
has been studied to assess the effect of H2 pressure on the yield and composition of the …

A new Ni–HY zeolite with lamellar-crystals was prepared as a catalyst for phenanthrene
hydrocracking. It showed significantly improved reactivity and BTX (benzene, toluene and …

Gas drying by adsorption on molecular sieves is one of the first unit operations in natural gas
processing. Nevertheless, the thermal swings during regeneration combined with the …

The purpose of this work was to establish a process model of a vacuum gas oil industrial
hydrocracking. In this model, we divide the lumps by 10 K as the interval, the reaction …

The ability to predict changes in selectivity and quality of products of catalytic hydrocracking
reaction is essential for the performance and economics of the process due to the variation …

The catalytic performance of a hydrocracking bifunctional catalyst and consequently its
activity loss depend on the balance between the metal (M) and acid (A) functions …
