The desulfurization of the actual heavy crude oil is one of the most important processes in petroleum industries due to the low quality of those types of oil and containing large amounts of sulfur compounds, high viscosity and density. In the present…
During biodegradation of petroleum products which are the main sources of aromatic compounds, optimization is the major strategy that enhances the performance of the participating organisms. This research aimed at optimizing diesel degrading…
The most of introduced schemes for the co-production of natural gas liquids (NGL) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) are designed as integrated configurations from the base. Furthermore, due to the high complexity of these structures single-objective…
Many engineering and manufacturing processes such as heat storage systems, nuclear power plants, and heat exchangers operate at high temperatures. The temperature gradient in these systems is significantly large so that the transport properties of…
The separation of glycerol from biodiesel in accordance with ASTM standards is critical. Conventional separation technology has not proven to be effective. Membrane technology is a viable and environmental friendly method of separating impurities…
