Thermal and Catalytic Processes in Petroleum Refining - Raseev, Serge

Examines the thermal and catalytic processes involved in petroleum refining, including visbreaking, coking, pyrolysis, catalytic cracking, oligomerization, alkylation, hydrofining, hydroisomerization, hydrocracking, and catalytic reforming. This text analyses the thermodynamics, reaction mechanisms, and kinetics of each process.
