Abstract:During the kinetic modeling of reactions with complex feeds, the proposal of reaction schemes is a crucial step, especially when the number of pathways considered is high, since it influences the estimation of kinetic parameters. In this work, the complexity of the reaction scheme and the methodology followed for the estimation of parameters of the kinetic models for heavy oil upgrading were studied. Experimental data reported in the literature for the aquathermolysis of Xinjiang heavy oil were employed. The o… Show more
