Production of Gasolines and Monocyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons: From Fossil Raw Materials to Green Processes

Guido Busca
- 05 Jul 2021 - 
TL;DR: The properties and applications of the main monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and the industrial processes for their manufacture from fossil raw materials are summarized and discussed in detail in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of pervaporation and perstraction for the separation of p‑xylene/m‑xylene mixtures using PDMS and CTA membranes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of two related membrane methods, pervaporation and perstraction, for the separation of p xylene/m xylene mixtures using membranes from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and cellulose triacetate (CTA).
Journal ArticleDOI

Transalkylation of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene with toluene over large pore zeolites: Role of pore structure and acidity

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of pore structure and acidity on the catalytic behavior of Beta and Y zeolites with a range of Bronsted and Lewis acid sites on their catalytic behaviour in the transalkylation reaction were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Micellar and sub-micellar liquid chromatography of terephthalic acid contaminants using a C18 column coated with Tween 20.

TL;DR: Due to the stability of the surfactant modified stationary phase, future potential mass spectrometry compatibility was shown through the alternative use of trifluoroacetic acid in the 100% H2O (no Tween) mobile phase but still with UV detection.
Journal ArticleDOI

A consolidated bioprocess design to produce multiple high-value platform chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass and its technoeconomic feasibility

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors presented an experimental optimized condition that maximizes the chemical-free production of HMF and furfurals without lowering the yield of total fermentable sugars from Saccharum bagasse.

Catalytic Naphtha Reforming

TL;DR: In the past twenty years, the demand for high octane motor fuels has resulted in the installation of catalytic naphtha reforming capacity at a much higher rate than was forecasted by some of the predictions.
