Kinetic Modeling of Thermal Hydrocracking of a Paraffinic Feedstock, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Khorasheh, Farhad (Supervisor) ; Badakhshan, Amir (Supervisor)
Abstract
Hydrocracking is a hydrogen addition process that permits refineries to convert heavier, less expensive crudes, into highly-valued transportation fuels such as gasoline, kerosene and diesel. Development of an accurate kinetic model for hydrocracking reactions is crucial to correctly predict the detailed product distribution under different operating conditions for a range of feedstocks as well as for reactor design, process optimization and catalyst selection. In this thesis a mechanistic kinetic model was developed for thermal hydrocracking of a paraffinic feedstock. This model was based on a molecular approach that was able to capture the fundamental chemistry of hydrocracking process. To...
