Utilization of bottom-of-the-barrel petroleum products like heavy fuel oils (HFO) derived from
vacuum residue oils (VRO) is essential for the sustainable use of crude oil. The high sulfur …

Hydrogen is a clean energy because of its high energy density and pollution-free
combustion. The main ways of hydrogen generation are from coal and methane, as well as …

Heavy fuel oil (HFO) has been used as fuel to propel marine engines for over half a century.
HFO combustion results in the release of particulate matter like smoke, cenospheres, and …

Tar formation and CO 2 emission represent the strongest barrier for use of gasification
technology for biomass conversion, whereas sufficing for both is only possible with …

Thermo-chemical conversion of oil sludge (OS) is a promising technological alternative for
management petroleum waste from crude oil refinery. In this study, an energetic and …

A modelling and simulation study of catalytic steam reforming of methane is presented in this
paper. A two-dimensional pseudo-heterogeneous model is developed to simulate a …

Large-scale production of hydrogen (H2) calls for the development of technology that abates
