Thermal and Catalytic Processes in Petroleum Refining
Review
The book is essentially the application of reaction and reactor engineering to petroleum refining and steam *****ing along with descriptions of current technology. As a result it is a great reference for chemical engineers working in the petroleum refining and petrochemical industries or for those teaching reactor engineering who would like to include examples from petroleum refining.

…Recommend[ed] … a useful resource for chemists who wish to improve their knowledge of some of the 'real world' issues that must be addressed in hydrocarbon conversion.

Book Description
This text examines the thermal and catalytic processes involved in the refining of petroleum including visbreaking, coking, pyrolysis, catalytic *****ing, oligomerization, alkylation, hydrofining, hydroisomerization, hydro*****ing, and catalytic reforming. It analyses the thermodynamics, reaction mechanisms, and kinetics of each process, as well as the effects of operating conditions and reactor design on process performance and product quality. This is a valuable resource for chemists who wish to improve their knowledge of some of the real world issues that must be addressed in hydrocarbon conversion. Topics include processes on metallic catalysts, processes using bifunctional catalysts, and catalytic reforming.
