the kinetics of catalyst deactivation and coke formation during dehydrogenation of propane over supported pt–based catalysts and, in particular, the effect of alkali metal promoters on catalyst activity and stability were studied. the analysis of propane conversion data showed that there is an optimum level of alkali metal promoter loading for both catalyst activity and stability.a model based ...

PURPOSE Despite the presence or absence of artificial sweeteners in cola drinks, both regular and diet soft drinks still contain phosphoric and citric acid, which contributes to the total acidic challenge potential on enamel. The purpose of this study was to assess the plaque pH, in vivo, after a substrate challenge of diet and regular soft drinks. METHODS Seventeen subjects were recruited fo...

Syrian petroleum coke, produced by a delayed coking unit, is characterized by a high percentage of fines which tends to reduce its commercial value. Blending coke fines using appropriate binders, such as bitumen and polyacrylic acid, can lead, however, to an improved coke that is similar in structure, appearance and other properties to better-quality coke lumps. In this work, samples of Syrian ...

The coke combustion rate in the iron ore sintering process is one of most important factors affecting quality and productivity sintering. purpose this study was to investigate presence hematite simulate actual conditions a sinter machine. experimental samples were prepared by mixing powder with powder. Experiments carried out under an air or N2 atmospheres at 1073, 1173 1273 K. From results rea...

Various traditional and industrial coke making techniques were discussed based on their limitations and production capacities, and the criteria such as the quality and size of coke production, amount of coke crumb, amount of investment, amount of operational costs, labor force and mechanization. In this work, the rankings of various traditional and industrial coke making techniques were carried...

Production of iron through BF route is still a dominant route and coke is a major raw material and energy source for the blast furnaces. The process of coal carbonization in slot ovens is one of the major sources of atmospheric pollution in an Integrated Steel Plant. Coke making process involves coal preparation, carbonization and coke handling operations. To meet the demand of Blast Furnaces o...

The calcined petroleum cokes are used in production of aluminum anode-grade, graphite electrode, needle-grade, titanium dioxide pigments. Petroleum coke (green and calcined) is produced by the high pressure thermal decomposition of heavy petroleum process streams and residues. Green coke undergoes additional thermal processing to produce calcined coke. Various properties of calcined cokes from ...

The objective of this work was to analyze the activity of petroleum coke and of activated carbons prepared from this material in the ozonation of aromatic contaminants of low biodegradability. 1,3,6-Naphthalenetrisulphonic acid (NTS) was selected as model compound for the study. The presence of the original coke during 1,3,6-naphthalenetrisulphonic acid ozonation produced a slight increase in t...

In this paper, an integrated coke dry quenching combined gasification system using coke oven gas and steam to quench the incandescent coke is proposed. The distinct advantages of the system include energy conservation, pollution reduction, coke quality improvement and full use of resources. Based on the minimization of the Gibbs free energy, the flow rate and composition of the syngas are predi...
