This useful reference offers in-depth coverage of current techniques for converting heavy oils and residues into more valuable distillates - examining the chemistry of heavy hydrocarbon feeds and their properties important to engineering design, including phase behavior, reaction kinetics, and thermodynamic and transport characteristics.
Discussing the design and operation of conversion processes in terms of the underlying chemical and physical properties of the residual feedstock, Upgrading Petroleum Residues and Heavy Oils describes the latest technologies for upgrading residues, including thermal and catalytic processes operating at high and low pressures ... explains the underlying behavior of complex refining processes ... provides process flowsheets for upgrading residues ... explicates kinetics, operability, hydrodynamics, and environmental impact ... illustrates important calculations with complete examples that show how theory is used in real applications ... and much more.
With a careful selection of bibliographic citations as well as helpful tables and figures, Upgrading Petroleum Residues and Heavy Oils is an incomparable resource for chemical, mechanical, and refining engineers; fuel scientists; petroleum, fuel, analytical, and environmental chemists; and upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and continuing-education students in these disciplines.

Industry Reviews

." . .cover[s] all of the important aspects of upgrading, from the chemical constituents of the feed to the commercially available processes that are practiced today. It does a good job, and it should be useful for. . .chemists in refinery laboratories, process and design engineers, and researchers. . ..There are practical problems at the end of each chapter that are good for either advanced engineering students, new practitioners in this or related fields, or those who want to brush up on the application of important concepts." ---Energy & Fuels "This welcome and informative volume describes the process technologies now available for the conversion of the high-molecular-weight components of residues, heavy oils and bitumens to fuels and petrochemical feedstocks. . .. . . .Any reader requiring an account of residue upgrading need look no further." ---Fuel
