Prospect of Controlled Autoxidation to Produce High‐Value Products from the Low‐Value Petroleum Fractions
Muhammad N. Siddiquee
Abstract:Substantial amounts of low‐value light petroleum fractions and low‐value heavy petroleum fractions, such as light naphtha, HVGO, and vacuum residue, are generated during the upgrading and refining of conventional and unconventional petroleum resources. The oil industry emphasizes economic diversification, aiming to produce high‐value products from these low petroleum fractions through cost‐effective and sustainable methods. Controlled autoxidation (oxidation with air) has the potential to produce industrially … Show more
