The effect of decalin as hydrogen-donor on the catalytic and non-catalytic hydrothermal
upgrading of heavy crude oil was studied. The donating (dehydrogenation) capacity and …

The tetralin hydrocracking process into benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX) was
investigated over metal-modified (Ga, Nb, Ni, NiMo, Sn, W, Zr or H 3 [P (W 3 O 10) 4])/ZSM-5 …

Decreasing the conventional sources of oil reservoirs attracts researchers' attention to the
tertiary recovery of oil reservoirs, such as in-situ catalytic upgrading. In this contribution, the …

The objective of this research is to develop catalysts for residue hydrocracking that can
enhance the yield of the middle distillates. The support compositions were tailored to …

Deep hydrogenation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is a feasible strategy to acquire
high-performance aviation fuels, in which the key is to design highly active hydrogenation …

Catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) is an efficient method for improving the quality of
pyrolysis oil (Py-oil or bio-oil). In this study, hydrotreatment of pine pyrolysis oils with NiMo/γ …

In-situ combustion alone may not provide sufficient heating for downhole, catalytic
upgrading of heavy oil in the Toe-to-Heel Air Injection (THAI) process. In this study, a new …

The utilization of non-precious nickel-based catalyst in increasing ammonia dissociation for
CO x-free hydrogen production was investigated. Typically, Co, La and basic metal oxides …

Ni 60 Co 40 nanoparticles supported on γ-Al 2 O 3 capable of simultaneously catalysing the
steam reforming reaction of methane and supplying in-situ the heat necessary to activate the …

Ni–Mo supported on γ-Al2O3 catalysts were synthesized to test its catalytic activity towards
sucrose to 1, 2-propanediol (1, 2-PDO) conversion. The catalyst system was characterized …
