Algae are considered as 3rd generation bio fuel for bio-oil production, it has good potential for the bio-oil production as some of the algal species, mainly micro algal species have high growth rate with significantly ...
Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is one of the most important processes for the conversion of gas oil to gasoline. This report is an attempt to model the phenomenon theoretically using commercial computational fluid dynamics ...
Gas-to-liquid (GTL) is one of the new processes that are becoming increasingly important in
petroleum industry. Gas-to-Liquid (GTL) is a chemical conversion process of natural gas or any
other hydrocarbons into synthetic ...
The reactive absorption is the most promising technique for the removal of carbon dioxide from post combustion flue gas. Monaethanaolamine (MEA) solvent is the most commercially used solvent for this process. The performance ...
The aim of this study is to develop a one dimensional heterogeneous two phase model for the adiabatic FCC riser reactor assuming a plug flow for both the solid and gaseous phases. The reaction kinetics of the cracking ...
In this report, we have analyzed the flow of a Newtonian fluid down an incline plane, which is coated with a neo-Hookean solid layer. The linear stability at zero and non-zero Reynolds number has been studied. It is shown ...
Electro-kinetics is the study of relative movement of two different charged phases interacting with each other. When the transportable part of the electric double layer is acted upon by shear forces electro-kinetic phenomena ...
In the present work the ultrasonicator parameters, such as amplitude ratio, recycle ratio and reaction time, have been optimized for transesterification reaction for both edible and non-edible oils. The soybean oil was ...
In the present study the Photo-Fenton process was used as a treatment method to treat synthetic wastewater containing 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The effects of oxidant (H2O2 and Fe2+) dosages, pH and initial 4-nitrophenol ...
Chemical Process Industries usually contains a diverse inventory of hazardous chemicals and complex systems required to perform process operations such as storage, separation, reaction, compression etc. The complex ...
Distillation is one of the most important separation technology adopted in the chemical process
industries. All the petrochemicals units use at least one distillation column for the separation and
purification of the ...
Carbon emission from fossil fuel, estimated by IPCC has thrown considerable challenge for researchers and scientists in the past decade. For obvious reasons, the applications of clean technologies such as chemical looping ...
A number of studies have been carried out for the combustion of coal by different types of model
i.e. shrinking core model, shrinking reactive coal model, random pore model, etc. Some of them
are briefed as follows.
Everson ...
In the present process industries, there is a need to reduce gaseous pollutants of all kinds because of heightening environmental concerns. This increases requirements for clean fuels and less polluting combustion systems. ...
It has been estimated that fossil fuels will be fully exhausted by the end of this century.
Hence alternatives for them have been searched which includes mainly renewable
source of energy such as solar energy, geothermal ...
Light cycle oil (LCO), which is a product of the catalytic cracking of the vacuum gas oil in the FCCU, contains a good percentage of aromatics, monocyclic and polycyclic. These compounds need to be separated from the ...
In the present work, an explicit modelling of gas recovery from dissociation of gas hydrates
by thermal stimulation is done. The dissociation method taken is thermal dissociation. The
main objective of this research is ...
This work reports stability of oil in water macro-emulsions with diesel oil dispersed in a continuous water phase and stabilized either by anionic (Sodium Dodecyl Benzene Sulphonate (SDBS)) or nonionic (Polysorbate80 ...
The linear stability of two-layer plane Couette flow of Newtonian fluids past a soft, deformable neo-Hookean solid with wall slip is studied using a combination of low wavenumber asymptotic analysis and a numerical ...
Copper nanoparticles have drawn the attention of the scientific and the research community due to its excellent catalytic behaviour, electrical conductivity, surface enhanced Raman scattering activity and good compatibility. ...
