Adsorptive desluphursation of diesel fuel on unprocessed amarula (sclerocarya birrea) wastes or synthesized activated carbons from biomass wastes

Kabi, Tsepiso Regina (2020-10)

Diesel fuel has been found to contain highly concentrated organo-sulphur compounds which have bad impact economically, environmentally, and health-wise. Adsorptive desulphurization (ADS) is one of the promising processes ...
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis fixed bed reactor intensification

Shen, Jianqi (2021-12)

A 2D pseudo-homogeneous fixed bed reactor model was developed using ANSYS Fluent, based on an actual bench-scale Fischer-Tropsch reactor. The single-tube reactor had a diameter of 0.05m, which is representative of the ...
Reduced graphene oxide supported cobalt catalysts for hydroformylation and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Chang, Jianli (2021-12)

Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) supported cobalt based catalysts with or without rhodium promotion, Rh-Co/RGO (RCG) and Co/RGO (CG), were successfully synthesized and evaluated in both Fischer Tropsch synthesis (FTS) and ...
The role of cobalt species in Fischer Tropsch synthesis: effects of support characteristics and reducing conditions

Shiba, Nothando Cynthia (2021-07-20)

The industry’s great interest is to intensify the cobalt-based Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) process by increasing the per-pass conversion and the production of long chain hydrocarbons. To achieve this goal, it is ...
