TL;DR: The current status of research in the design of heterogeneous catalysts based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their application in various processes is discussed in this paper, with particular attention given to reactions pertaining to selective catalysis.
Abstract: The current status of research in the design of heterogeneous catalysts based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their application in various processes is discussed. Particular attention is given to reactions pertaining to selective catalysis. It has been shown that metal-organic frameworks successfully compete with the classical molecular sieves zeolites in this area. However, MOFs are still not able to replace these inorganic systems in the cases when a catalytic reaction requires severe conditions. Their primary fields of application are fine organic synthesis and enantioselective catalysis, since the relevant catalytic processes can be carried out under mild conditions.

TL;DR: In this article, the progress in membrane gas separation technology applied in the oil refining and petrochemical sector is discussed, and the implementation of membrane technology in refineries and in the PETrochemical industry result in Process Intensification (e.g., reduced footprint, better material utilization, reduced energy, reduced utilities and waste).
Abstract: The focus of this paper is on the progresses in membrane gas separation technology applied in the oil refining and petrochemical sector. Industrial applications, research trends on new materials and technical solutions, challenges and possible applications will be discussed. Other membrane operations will be briefly addressed, owing to their increasing number of installed systems in the refinery/petrochemical industry. This paper outlines how implementation of membrane technology in refineries and in the petrochemical industry result in Process Intensification (e.g., reduced footprint, better material utilization, reduced energy, reduced utilities and waste).

TL;DR: Some problems of general ecology as applied to the environmental issues of oil production and transportation at different stages of oil management are surveyed in this paper, where factors responsible for the most adverse environmental impact attributed to oil spills and wastewater discharge, as well as up-to-date techniques of oil spill cleanup, are discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, a review summarizes published data on the synthesis, physicochemical properties, and activity of nanocatalysts for the hydroconversion of heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks.
Abstract: The review summarizes published data on the synthesis, physicochemical properties, and activity of nanocatalysts for the hydroconversion of heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks—atmospheric and vacuum residues. New reaction systems used in the hydroconversion of heavy feedstocks—a slurry reactor and a blacking reactor—are discussed. Particular attention is given to the synthesis of promising nanocatalysts by singlelayer dispersion of powders and thermal or chemical conversion of oil- and water-soluble precursors dispersed in a hydrocarbon medium.

TL;DR: In this article, the reaction of CO2 with H2 on copper and nickel catalysts was studied by means of isotope, non-steady state, and steady-state methods.
Abstract: The mechanism of the reaction of CO2 with H2 on copper and nickel catalysts was studied by means of isotope, non-steady-state, and steady-state methods. Staged schemes of the process were proposed. The slow step of CO formation on the test catalysts is the reaction of the adsorbed carboxylate complex with a hydrogen atom. It was shown that hydrogen adsorption on the copper catalyst is dissociative in character. A formyl complex and hydrogen are involved in the slow step of methane formation on the nickel catalyst. It was found that the methane formation proceeds via a consecutive scheme through CO.
