The vapour extraction (VAPEX) process is a promising technique to extract heavy oil and bitumen while
minimising environmental pollution and capital costs compared to conventional thermal processes. This paper
comprehensively reviews the literature on the vapour extraction process to elucidate why VAPEX is not yet
operational at the field scale. It was found that unfeasibility of the VAPEX process is mainly attributed to
operational issues. A sufficient number of parameters that are associated with these two issues and affect the
VAPEX process are evaluated in this paper. [Received: March 11, 2013; Accepted: October 17, 2013]

Deshidrogenación catalítica de propano: Estrategias avanzadas
para el análisis y diseño de reactores de lecho móvil
Publicada el 22/06/2015
A moving bed reactor (MBR) is one of the most innovative reactors that are commonly used in industry
nowadays. However, the modeling and optimization of the reactor have been rarely performed at conceptual
design stage due to its complexity of design, and it has resulted in increased capital and operating costs of the
overall chemical processes. In this work, advanced strategies were introduced to model an MBR and its
regenerator mathematically, incorporating catalyst deactivation, such as coke formation. Various reactor
designs and operating parameters of the MBR were optimized to increase the overall reactor performance,
such as conversion or selectivity of the main products across the reactor operating period. These optimization
parameters include: (1) reactant flow inside a reactor, (2) various networks of MBRs, (3) temperature of the
feed stream, (4) intermediate heating or cooling duties, (5) residence time of the catalyst or velocity of catalyst
flow, and (6) flow rate of the fresh make-up catalyst. The propane dehydrogenation process was used as a
case study, and the results showed the possibility of significant increase of reactor performance through
optimization of the above parameters. For optimization, the simulated annealing (SA) algorithm was
incorporated into the reactor modeling. This approach can be easily applied to other reaction processes in
industry.

Preparación y caracterización de sílice funcionalizado de ácido
sulfónico y su aplicación para la esterificación de etanol y ácido
maleico
Publicada el 12/06/2015
The surface of commercially available silica gel, 60–200 mesh size, was
modified with sulfonic acid through surface activation, grafting of 3-
Mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, oxidation and acidification of 3-
Mercaptopropylsilica. Sulfonic Acid Functionalization of Silica (SAFS) was
confirmed by Fourier Transform Infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermal
gravimetric analysis. Acid–base titration was used to estimate the cation
exchange capacity of the SAFS. Catalytic activity of SAFS was judged for
the esterification of ethanol with maleic acid. An effect of different process
parameters viz. molar ratio, catalyst loading, speed of agitation and
temperature were studied and optimized by Box Behnken Design (BBD) of
Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Quadratic model developed by
BBD–RSM reasonably satisfied an experimental and predicted values with
correlation coefficient value R2 = 0.9504.

Catalizador de craqueo catalítico para la conversión eficiente de
petróleos pesados y método de preparación del mismo
Publicada el 17/06/2015
The present invention provides a catalytic cracking catalyst for heavy oil and preparation methods thereof. The
catalyst comprises 2 to 50% by weight of a phosphorus-containing ultrastable rare earth Y-type molecular
sieve, 0.5 to 30% by weight of one or more other molecular sieves, 0.5 to 70% by weight of clay, 1.0 to 65% by
weight of high-temperature-resistant inorganic oxides, and 0.01 to 12.5% by weight of a rare earth oxide. The
phosphorus-containing ultra-stable rare earth Y-type molecular sieve uses a NaY molecular sieve as a raw
material. The raw material is subjected to a rare-earth exchange and a dispersing pre-exchange; the molecular
sieve slurry is then filtered, washed with water and subjected to a first calcination to obtain a rare earth sodium
Y molecular sieve which has been subjected to such "first-exchange first-calcination", wherein the steps of rare
earth exchange and dispersing pre-exchange are not restricted in sequence; and then the rare earth sodium Y
molecular sieve which has been subjected to "one-exchange one-calcination" is subjected to "second
exchange and second calcination" including ammonium exchange and a phosphorus modification, wherein the
steps of the ammonium exchange and the phosphorus modification are not restricted in sequence. The steps
of the ammonium exchange and the phosphorus modification can be conducted continuously or non-
continuously, the second calcination is conducted after the ammonium exchange for reducing sodium, the
phosphorus modification can be conducted before or after the second calcination. The catalyst provided by the
invention has the characteristics of high heavy oil conversion capacity, high total liquid yield, and high yield of
light oil.

Hidrocraqueo de gasóleos con rendimiento aumentado de
destilado
Publicada el 03/06/2015
Methods are provided for improving the yield of distillate products from
hydroprocessing of gas oil feedstocks, such as vacuum gas oils. It has
been unexpectedly found that stripping of gases or fractionation to
separate out a distillate fraction during initial hydrotreatment of a feed can
provide a substantial increase in distillate yield at a desired amount of
feedstock conversion. The improvement in yield of distillate products can
allow a desired level of conversion to be performed on a feedstock for
generating lubricating base oil products while reducing or minimizing the
amount of naphtha (or lower) boiling range products. Alternatively, the
improvement in yield of distillate products can correspond to an improved
yield during a single pass through a reaction system, so that distillate yield
is increased even though a lubricant boiling range product is not
generated.

A system for desalting crude oil includes delivering a stream of salty crude
oil and wash water into a mixing valve, mixing the stream of salty crude oil
and wash water through the mixing valve to create a mixed stream of
desalted crude oil and salty wash water, delivering the mixed stream of
desalted crude oil and salty wash water to a static mixer, and mixing the
mixed stream of crude oil and wash water in the static mixer. Within the
static mixer, the mixed stream is mixed in a coalescing regime to coalesce
smaller droplets of water into larger droplets of water. The mixed stream is
then directed to a desalter where the salty wash water is separated from
the desalted crude oil.

Gas natural desafía el protagonismo del petróleo como
combustible para transporte
Publicada el 03/06/2015
The use of natural gas as a transportation fuel, particularly for trucks and ships, could displace more than 1.5
million b/d of oil demand by 2030, according to a recent study by business information provider IHS.
The study, “LNG in Transportation: Challenging Oil’s Grip,” says that a combination of drivers—environmental,
technological, and commercial—will drive greater adoption of gas in transport, with the highest level of adoption
seen in high-fuel consuming applications such as trucks and ships. The study was couducted between
September 2014 and March 2015.

Bombeo de petróleo crudo mediante impulsor centrífugo con
diferentes ángulos de paleta y rugosidad de la superficie
Publicada el 08/06/2015
Centrifugal pumps are extensively used in the oil and gas industries and
the pump performance drops with higher viscosity and higher surface
roughness of the pump impeller, and the impeller design parameters have
significant effect on the pump performance. Through the present research,
crude oil pumping behavior has been predicted, analyzed and compared
with other fluids. A 3D flow simulation using Reynolds-averaged
Navier–Stokes (RANS) equation was performed by considering different
blade angles and impeller surface roughness to pump crude oil, kerosene,
gasoline, saline-water and water. Standard k- two-equation turbulence
model was used for the turbulent closure of steady incompressible flow.
The investigation shows that the blade angles have significant influence on
the head, input power and efficiency of the impeller for different liquids.
Higher head and power, and lower hydraulic efficiency were observed with
higher surface roughness values.

Membranas de zeolita para producción de hidrógeno a partir de
gas natural: Estado del arte
Publicada el 31/05/2015
Currently, hydrogen is produced industrially by processes requiring high energy consumption, especially by
cracking fossil fuels and by splitting water. In recent years, research has been devoted to the use of membrane
catalytic reactors in order to achieve higher hydrogen yield. Zeolite membranes have been shown to be very
promising as they are stable to contaminants (such as H2S) and do not have the disadvantages that palladium
and silica membranes exhibit. The aim of this work is to summarize the state of the art of hydrogen selective
zeolite membranes that can be applied for hydrogen separation after syngas production from reforming
streams. In addition, zeolite membrane applications in membrane reactors for hydrogen production are
discussed.

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using a reactive force field (ReaxFF) method for a Green River oil shale
model demonstrate that the thermal decomposition of the oil shale molecule is initiated with the cleavage of the
oxygen bridge (C–O bond), and the first product is formaldehyde (CH2O). The simulation results show that the
C–O bond is weaker than the other bonds, agreeing with its smaller bond dissociation energy (BDE). The ring-
opening position of the aliphatic ring is usually determined by the stability of free radicals formed in this
process. For aromatic hydrocarbons, the long-chain substituents are found to be easier to leave and the
cleavage of C–C bonds leads to a series of chain reactions and the formation of small fragments, such as
ethylene and propylene.

Nano nickel sulfide catalysts (NSCs) were successfully prepared for residue slurry-phase hydrocracking, which
were synthesized by precipitation reaction in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) or mixed-surfactant
(CTAB and Tween-80)/1-butanol/toluene/water reverse microemulsion in the presence of NiCl2 as the nickel
resource and (NH4)2S as the sulfiding reagent. The prepared catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction
(XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Experimental data revealed that both the kind and content
of surfactants play a significant role in the morphology and size of NSCs. The particle size and crystallinity of
NSC increased by thermal sulfiding at 300 °C in Karamay vacuum gas oil (KLVGO). Optical micrographs
showed that NSCs could be well-dispersed in Karamay atmospheric residue (KLAR) without obvious
aggregation. On the basis of the lower yields of gas, atmospheric residue (AR), and coke, the NSCs showed
higher catalytic activity than a conventional water/oil-soluble Ni catalyst. NSCs had excellent coke suppression
performance (coke yield is less than 0.65 wt %), and the produced coke mainly dispersed in liquid products.
With the decrease of NSC particle size, the coke suppression performance enhanced and the size of toluene-
insoluble fraction in liquid products (TI-LP) decreased.

In this study, the pure Ag nanoporous foams, with open cell pore volume
fractions 55 to 70 pct and pore sizes 100 to 400 nm, have been prepared
by chemical dealloying. The Ag nanoporous foams possess favorable
modulus (~0.7 GPa) and strength (~14 MPa), much higher than most of
the polymers or ceramic foams. It is found that the Ag nanoporous foams
are appropriate candidates for the catalytic and electrode applications.
However, they do not exhibit efficient anti-bacterial effect, unless much
smaller bacteria with cell sizes of 100 nm or less in the neighborhood are
encountered.

It was established that increase in the size of the iron nanoparticles in Fe/CNT nanocomposites from 4 to 8 nm
leads to increase of their activity and selectivity with respect to methane in the hydrogenolysis of ethylene. The
activity and selectivity of the nanocomposites are significantly higher than those of macrocrystalline iron, and
this may be due to differences in the thermal conductivity of the bulk iron and the carbon nanotubes.

A comprehensive study of the physical mechanisms of fluid production from a well intersected by a narrow
elliptically shaped vertical fracture with finite fracture conductivity is carried out using a newly obtained
analytical solution. The flow pattern, flux density distribution along the fracture surface, and fluid production rate
are analyzed systematically with respect to finite fracture conductivity. The simplicity of the new analytical
solution reveals many physical insights not attainable from existing analytical or numerical solutions. It is shown
that the nearly singular pressure gradient developed at the fracture tip induces the reservoir flow to converge to
and focus at the tip region, promoting flux density along the entire fracture surface and enhancing the
production rate. It is established that the flow in the reservoir is a superposition of two basic flows, a confocal
elliptical flow responsible for the fluid production, and a redistributive nonproducing flow induced by a finite
fracture conductivity that draws fluids out of the fracture from the part near the tip and redeposits them back to
the part of the fracture close to the wellbore. An explicit analytical formula for the fluid production rate is also
derived that exhibits a simple dependency on the dimensionless fracture conductivity.

A method for significant increase in gas oil yield and energy efficiency in
crude oil distillation is provided. The present invention relates to a method
of separating the components of crude oil. This method utilizes the
innovative and novel application of lighter fraction of crude through its
superheating and its injection in the stripping section consisting of bottom
to flash zone of main distillation column. Method also illustrates the
innovative utilization of water in crude distillation unit to eliminate the
bottom striping steam and for significant energy saving.

Drillers in the Eagle Ford Shale use among the most water in the country
to drill for oil and gas, according to a study from the U.S. Geological
Survey released Tuesday.
Using data collected from IHS Energy on more than 81,000 wells across
the U.S., USGS researchers said they created the first map providing a
comprehensive look at the rate of water usage across the nation’s major
shale plays.

The Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday released a long-awaited, exhaustive study on hydraulic
fracturing’s effects on drinking water.
In a nutshell: It has none.
The EPA’s draft report states that while the “mechanisms” of hydraulic fracturing have the “potential” to impact
drinking water resources, the number of identified cases were small in relation to the total number of wells
completed through hydraulic fracturing.

US refining emissions dropped substantially in the last 2 decades as petroleum product production increased,
research commissioned by the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers found.
The study by Sage Environmental Consulting of US Environmental Protection Agency data revealed a
significant reduction in both criteria air pollutant (CAP) emissions and hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions
from 1990 to 2013, AFPM said Apr. 23 as it released the findings.
