Oxy-cracking has been developed recently as an effective technology for converting residual
feedstocks, like petroleum coke (petcoke), into valuable commodity products. This offers a …

The depleting of the available conventional energy supplies together with an industrial shift
towards unconventional resources like heavy oil/bitumen has become more pronounced …

The oil industry faces economic and environmental challenges due to its energy-and water-
intensive processes. Surplus residual feedstocks and the water produced via heavy oil …

Petroleum coke (petcoke) is a challenging fuel in terms of its complexity, high sulphur and
nitrogen content, low volatile content, and undesirable emissions of SOx and NOx when …

Oil sands exploitation in Alberta relies on water-intensive processes that result in large
amounts of oil sand process-affected water (OSPW). Tailings ponds are used to store OSPW …

Petrochemical refineries worldwide experience a common problem: the accumulation of fuel
