Impacts of refining Canadian partially upgraded bitumen: Fluid catalytic cracking
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract In this study, we examine the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) performance of vacuum gas oil (VGO) from partially upgraded bitumen (PUB), a novel refinery feedstock from Canadian bitumen. FCC experiments were conducted in a lab‐scale FCC unit with VGOs from two different PUBs prepared using thermal cracking and solvent deasphalting, along with ...

Crude oil and gasoline prices: an asymmetric relationship? [PDF]
Gasoline is the petroleum product whose price is most visible and, therefore, always under public scrutiny. Many claim there is an asymmetric relationship between gasoline and oil prices - specifically, gasoline price changes follow oil price changes ...

Probing the Evaporation Dynamics of Ethanol/Gasoline Biofuel Blends Using Single Droplet Manipulation Techniques [PDF]
, 2015 Using blends of bio-ethanol and gasoline as automotive fuel leads to a net decrease in the production of harmful emission compared to the use of pure fossil fuel. However, fuel droplet evaporation dynamics change depending on the mixing ratio.

Hydrogen donor‐assisted visbreaking of Canadian oil sands bitumen
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract High‐viscosity Canadian oil sands bitumen requires processing for efficient transportation and refining. Partial upgrading technologies, primarily based on thermal processing, can effectively reduce, or even eliminate, the use of costly diluent, increase bitumen quality and market value, potentially decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and

Competition, regulation, and pricing behavior in the Spanish retail gasoline market [PDF]
The restructuring of the Spanish oil industry produced a highly concentrated oligopoly in the retail gasoline market. In June 1990 the Spanish government introduced a system of ceiling price regulation in order to ensure that "liberalization" was ...

Role of Lewis centres on ethanol dehydrogenation over the Cu‐Cr/γ‐Al2O3 system
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Cu–Cr interactions on alumina enhance Lewis acid site density, boosting selectivity towards ethanol dehydrogenation products. Soft coke formation on copper and Cu–Cr sites drives deactivation, shifting the reaction towards unwanted dehydration products.
