The study aims to evaluate the removal of sulfur content from Iraqi light naphtha produced in Al-Dora refinery by adsorption desulfurization DS technique using modified activated carbon MAC loaded with nickel Ni and copper Cu as single binary metals. experiments were carried a batch unit various operating parameters; dosage, agitation speed, contact time 300 min at constant initial concentratio...

In this contribution Artificial Neural Network (ANN) modeling of the hydrocracking process is presented. The input–output data for the training and simulation phases of the network were obtained from the Tehran refinery ISOMAX unit. Different network designs were developed and their abilities were compared. Backpropagation, Elman and RBF networks were used for modeling and simulation of the hyd...

Due to the enormous use of oil worldwide, accidental spills occur relatively often, threatening sea ecosystem. A remediation strategy, usually, includes materials macroporous structure, flexibility, and low cost. Furthermore, they need have oleophilic hydrophobic characteristics. All these demands fulfill siloxane matrix foams. The addition a natural zeolite, clinoptilolite, as filler, can impr...

the main objective of this study is the modelling and optimization of an industrial hydrocracker unit (hu) by means of adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (anfis) model. in this case, some data were collected from an industrial hydrocracker plant. inputs of an anfis include flow rate of fresh feed and recycle hydrogen, temperature of reactors, mole percentage of h2 and h2s, feed flow rate and...

Fuel quality is an important indicator for the suitability of alternative fuel utilization in internal combustion (IC) engines. In this paper, light naphtha and fusel oil have been introduced as additives local low octane gasoline to operate a spark ignition (SI) engine. Investigated samples prepared based on volume denoted GN10 (90% 10% naphtha), GF10 oil), GN5F5 gasoline, 5% oil) addition G10...
