Production of middle distillates through olefin oligomerization using ZSM‐5 as a catalyst

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The global transportation sector relies heavily on gasoline (C5–C12) and diesel (C11–C24), which together account for approximately 60% of its energy needs. Driven by rapid industrialization and urbanization, diesel consumption is outpacing gasoline, with projections estimating global demand by 2035 at 27 million barrels per day for gasoline ...

Novel adsorption-based upgradation of end-of-life polypropylene pyrolysis oil using carbonised rice husk

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X
Plastic waste management is a global issue, with end-of-life polypropylene (EoL PP) having significant contribution. Polypropylene degradation forms undesirable compounds in pyrolysis oil, reducing its quality and limiting its fuel usability.

Sustainable Hydrogen Production by Glycerol and Monosaccharides Catalytic Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) in Homogeneous Phase

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...

The Impact of a Higher Fuel Levy on the Western Cape [PDF]

open access: yes
The Western Cape Provincial Government's proposal to introduce a provincial fuel levy within a band of 10 and 50 cents per litre raises concerns on the impact this may have on the economy, especially at a time of high international oil prices. This study

An assessment of stress and production rate of sucker rod heat pipes in oil well pumping system

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The sucker rod pumping system is the preferred oil extraction technique. The concept about equipping the hollow vacuum space in solid sucker rods with heat pipe has been scrutinized in terms of stress and oil production evaluation. Abstract The implementation of the heat pipe concept in sucker rods for oil pumping systems negates the requirement for an

Effect of Hydrotreating Severity on Jet Fuel Thermal Oxidation Stability of Olefinic Synthetic Kerosene

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The extent of hydrotreating that is required for olefinic kerosene to pass the jet fuel thermal oxidative stability test was investigated. Fouling species are destroyed after mild hydrotreating, and no further benefit is derived from more severe hydrotreating.

Effect of nitrogenous bases on the thermal stability of jet fuels [PDF]

open access: yes
Fuels from naphthenic petroleums were evaluated, and it was found that they had more N bases than those paraffinic ones (0.00024 and 0.000009% N, respectively).
