“…Vegetable oils tend to break at higher temperatures and it is necessary to study the cracking in presence (catalytic cracking) and absence (pyrolysis) of catalyst. Ma et al 49 also investigated the thermal cracking vs catalytic cracking using waste cooking oil and the results were similar to our observations. The pyrolysis of oil showed steady increase in % conversion but with the increase in yield of gaseous products.…”

Recycling of waste material and production of biofuels are the thrust areas to modern technology. The basic idea behind this work is to regenerate waste silver from X-ray films and to employ them in biofuel production from jatropha oil. Stable silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared using Quercus infectoria (oak gall) and raw Camellia sinensis (tea) extracts. The synthesized materials were characterized by XRD, UV-visible spectra, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, and Fe-SEM technique. The temperature of the reactions, weight hourly space velocity, and time of reaction decide the yield of biofuel, and the parameters were optimized over Ag NP catalyst. Apart from yield of biofuel, the proportion of gasoline fraction (C5-C9) was also peer monitored. A maximum of 90% conversion of jatropha oil was converted into 85% biofuel with 76% selectivity toward gasoline over Ag NPs. Flash point, fire point, calorific value, cloud point, specific gravity, and viscosity of the gasoline were evaluated and correlated with ASTM D6751 standards.

“…Thermal cracking, hydro treatment, and catalytic cracking are the conventional methods of upgrading biooil (Ma et al, 2018). Petroleum range hydrocarbons can be produced by the secondary processing of bio-oils through the use of various catalysts like metals, metal carbonates, and oxides, and aluminosilicates (Isa and Ganda, 2018).…”

Renewable energy production has attracted great attention due to public concerns about the depletion of fossil fuels and the growing emphasis on zero carbon emissions. Two main drivers have pushed renewable energy production to the top of the global agenda: climate change and energy security. Biomass is considered to be the only sustainable source of organic carbon on earth and the perfect equivalent to petroleum for the production of bioenergy, biofuels and fine chemicals with net zero carbon emission in a biorefinery. This review focuses on the potential of producing energy from different biomasses and describes technologies such as direct combustion, microwave technology, hydrothermal liquefaction, and fast pyrolysis to convert biomass into bioenergy. Herein, innovative scalable concepts are provided to perform microwave pyrolysis on a larger scale. Current research is mainly focused on the use of catalysts to enhance the process. Various parameters affect the biomass pyrolysis process, properties, and yields of products. These generally include the biomass source, biomass pretreatment (physical, chemical, and biological), the catalyst, the reaction atmosphere, temperature, the heating rate, and the pressure and vapor residence time. The study also shows how various types of reactors affect the bio-oil yield in the presence of a catalyst.

“…Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) technology has been (and is still) one of the most important conversion processes in petroleum refinery for converting heavy fractions to more valuable fuels, such as gasoline, diesel, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), olefinic gases, and some other products [1][2][3]. Due to the high flexibility of operation for different types of feedstocks, such as biomass-derived feedstocks, FCC technology has been long-lasting, and witnessed several stages of developments and revolutions for catalyst, feedstock, process technology, and reactor design [4][5][6]. In other words, the wider diversity of feedstocks, fluctuation of product market, and environmental emissions control have continuously proposed a number of challenges for fresh FCC catalysts, reaction conditions, and even production distribution [7][8][9][10].…”

The issues of feedstocks, product markets, and environmental emissions have continuously proposed a number of challenges for industrial evaluation of fresh fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst before its application in commercial units. In this work, a convenient method was proposed by comparing with the existing commercial equilibrium catalyst. A series of laboratory experiments for steam treatments and microactivity tests were established to collect reliable data, and the standalone catalyst or co-catalysts were assessed to show the evaluation process and the predicted unit performance. The results had deviation, but a consistent yield distribution than that of a commercial equilibrium catalyst. These evaluations and predictions would provide us with not only the view of hydrothermal stability and yield distribution at the unit level, but also the economic potential for fresh catalyst based on the existing industrial catalyst, which will provide refiners with industrial basis for further decisions.
