Correlation of Temperature-Programmed Oxidation with Microscopy for Quantitative Morphological Characterization of Thermal Cokes Produced from Pilot and Commercial Delayed Cokers
Abstract:A wide series of thermal cokes obtained
from commercial delayed
cokers and a pilot coking plant have been investigated by polarized
light microscopy observation, scanning electron microscopy (SEM),
and temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) technology. For discrimination
of the characterization of the coke samples, the anisotropy degrees
of the cokes are found to be considerably different. According to
the series of runs in the pilot plant, the restricted mesophase development
in thermal cokes could be ascribe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
