Abstract:The combined hydrogenation and catalytic cracking (HCC) process is reported to be able to convert inferior light cycle oil (LCO) into high-quality gasoline efficiently. However, when the LCO rich in tricyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (TAHs) is used as feedstock, a high hydrogenation severity is required to saturate the aromatic rings and abundant gaseous hydrocarbons are generated during the following catalytic cracking process, thereby reducing the gasoline yield and its quality. In this work, the LCO was distil… 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.
