Modeling and Simulation of Catalytic Reactors for Petroleum Refining describes the main conversion processes used in the petroleum refining industry: catalytic hydrotreating, catalytic reforming, and fluid catalytic cracking. It explains and analyzes approaches for modeling of catalytic reactors for steady-state and dynamic simulations and discusses aspects such as thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, process variables, process scheme, and reactor design. It uses laboratory and commercial data to validate models developed. This is an essential reference for chemical and process engineers, computational chemists and modelers, catalysis researchers, and professionals in the petroleum industry.
