Sulfur compounds represent one of the most common impurities present in the crude oil.
Sulfur in liquid fuel oil leads directly to the emission of SO2 and sulfate particulate matter …

The diminishing quality of oil feedstocks coupled with increasingly more stringent
environmental regulations limiting the content of sulfur in transportation fuels have given rise …

Green diesel or straight chain hydrocarbons are produced by the hydrodeoxygenation of bio-
based feedstocks such as vegetable oils and bio-oils. Usage of green diesel for commercial …

SBA-15 is an interesting mesoporous silica material having highly ordered nanopores and a
large surface area, which is widely employed as catalyst supports, absorbents, drug delivery …

Bio-liquids upgrading via catalytic hydrotreating represents an alternative route to produce
liquid hydrocarbon fuels. In this paper, the upgrading of an olive oil production-derived by …

A series of CoMo catalysts supported on SBA-15 were prepared with
ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and citric acid (CA) as chelating agents. The …

In the present work, NiMo catalysts supported on SBA-15 were prepared using citric acid
(CA) during the synthesis. The objective of this work was to realize a comparative study of …

The synergistic atomic ratio, N i N i+ M o, of the NiMo/γ-Al 2 O 3 reduced catalysts was
investigated for the transformation of natural triglycerides into green diesel. A series of …

Ultra-deep desulfurization technologies are critical for cleaner oils and consequent better air
quality. Earlier efforts in this field focused on specific catalysts and their catalytic efficiencies …

The catalytic activity of iron-loaded SBA-15 (Fe/SBA-15) for ozonation of dimethyl phthalate
(DMP) in aqueous solution was investigated. SBA-15 was synthesized by a hydrothermal …
