Some other methods used to upgrade residual oil are Deasphalting, Coking, Hydrocracking, Residue Hydrotreating, Resid FCC, and Visbreaking.
22.
Botryococcenes are preferred over alkadienes and alkatrienes for hydrocracking as botryococcenes will likely be transformed into a fuel with a higher octane rating.
23.
They catalyze isomerisation, alkylation, and epoxidation, and are used in large scale industrial processes, including hydrocracking and fluid catalytic cracking.
24.
Hydrogen is used for the creation of ammonia for fertilizer via the Haber process, and converting heavy petroleum sources to lighter fractions via hydrocracking.
25.
The ASP did not study Bb oils for their suitability in hydrocracking, as some subsequent studies have done on the " B " race.
26.
FCC units are less common in Europe and Asia because those regions have high demand for diesel and kerosene, which can be satisfied with hydrocracking.
27.
PDVSA's technical unit, Intevep SA Centro de Investigacion y Apoyo Tecnologico, spent 15 years developing the technology for so-called hydrocracking distillation.
28.
Hydrocracking represents an even larger growth area, since rising oil prices encourage oil companies to extract poorer source material, such as tar sands and oil shale.
29.
It is also used as a catalyst for polymerization, hydrocracking, and chlorination reactions; as a mordant; and in the production of other antimony salts.
30.
It can be used as feedstock for hydrocracking in an oil refinery to produce octane ( gasoline, a . k . a . petrol ), and kerosene.
