DESCRIPTION:
Paul Robinson said Excellent Book. This book is excellent. Its only weakness is its age, so the chapters on selecting pilot plant reactors is out of date.

Scientific productivity includes two books, several book chapters and a dozen of reviews on various aspects of hydroprocessing catalysis, petroleum refining and utilization of refinery residues. The studies on upgrading petroleum feeds included hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodeoxygenation, catalyst deactivation and regeneration. Some 130 articles appeared in the referred scientific journals. Furimsky has some forty years of research in the conversion of petroleum, coal and natural gas to various commercial products. The environmental and safety aspects as well as utilization options for spent refinery catalysts were part of the research as well. About the Author Dr.
Attention is paid to deactivation with the aim to extent catalyst life during the operation. Properties of the catalysts are discussed in terms of their suitability for upgrading heavy feeds. Besides diverse chemical composition, special attention is devoted to pore size and pore volume distribution of the catalysts. Strategies for regeneration, utilization and disposal of spent hydroprocesing catalysts were evaluated. - Comprehensive and most recent information on hydroprocessing catalysts for upgrading heavy petroleum feeds.- Compares conventional, modified and novel catalysts for upgrading a wide range of heavy petroleum feeds.- Comparison of conventional with non-conventional hydroprocessing, the latter involving soluble/dispersed catalysts and biocatalysts. Separate chapter was added to distinguish upgrading capabilities of the residues catalytic cracking processes from tho
