The depletion of fossil fuels and the negative impacts of their extraction and combustion on
the environment have encouraged scientists and industrial stakeholders to explore the …

The increase in energy demands and problems related to fossil fuels have encouraged the
development of suitable renewable energies as petroleum alternatives. Fast pyrolysis is a …

In this study, the hydrothermal upgrading (HTU) of high sulfur-content heavy oil was
investigated at sub-critical (Sub-CW), near-critical (NCW) and supercritical water (SCW) …

To address the issues of greenhouse gas emissions associated with fossil fuels, vegetable
oilseeds, especially non-food oilseeds, are used as an alternative fuel resource. Vegetable …

An exhaustive review on the application of different metal-based nanoparticles for the
upgrading of heavy oils has been performed. Particular emphasis has been put on those …

For the first time, this work addresses the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of lignocellulosic bio-
oil over a carbon–neutral Mo 2 C/CNF catalyst for the production of liquid biofuels and value …

In this work, the evolution of pyrolytic products of nature rubber (NR) and vulcanized NR
were studied by performing a series of ReaxFF molecular dynamics simulations. The …

Catalysts based on Ni supported on alumina were studied for steam reforming (SR) of a
synthetic bio-oil/bio-glycerol mixture and a real bio-oil. Catalyst tests were carried out in a …

The effect of weight ratio of plywood manufacturing by-product birch sawdust (BS) to water
(1/2–1/8), reaction temperature (200–340° C), initial H 2 pressure (0–10 MPa), residence …

This paper investigated pyrolysis of palm kernel shell in a proposed reactor, which is
characterized by internal recycling of heavy oil between a heavy oil sorption zone and …
