• Important Keys in the Estimation of Parameters During Hydrocracking Kinetic Modelling 

  Felix Lugo Jose Guillermo (2020)

  Due to the large amount of compounds present in heavy crudes and bitumens, kinetic modeling of hydrocracking is generally used lumping models to simplify calculations. One way to ensure that the model regime depends only ...
• Revisiting the importance of appropriate parameter estimation based on sensitivity analysis for developing kinetic models 

  Sámano Vicente; Tirado Kota Aleksis; Felix Lugo Jose Guillermo; Ancheyta Juarez Jorge (2020)

  A methodology for estimating kinetic parameters based on sensitivity analysis is discussed. The method includes three main steps: initialization of parameter values, non-linear parameter estimation, and sensitivity analysis. ...
• Regular solution model to predict the asphaltenes flocculation and sediments formation during hydrocracking of heavy oil 

  Felix Lugo Jose Guillermo; Ancheyta Juarez Jorge (2020)

  Experiments of hydrocracking of heavy crude oil were carried out in a 1.8 L batch reactor with a mineral dispersed catalyst. Sediments content was analyzed at different reaction times (2-5 h) and temperatures (360-400 ?C). ...
• Kinetic study of thermal and catalytic hydrocracking of asphaltene 

  Hai Hung Pham; Ngoc Thuy Nguyen; Kang Seok Go; Sunyoung Park; Nam-sun Nho; Gyoo Tae Kim; Chul Wee Lee; Felix Lugo Jose Guillermo (2020)

  In this study, a five-lump model was proposed for kinetic modeling of asphaltene placed in a batch reactor with a commercial slurry-phase catalyst (Mo-octoate). Asphaltene was separated from vacuum residue using normal ...
• Using separate kinetic models to predict liquid, gas, and coke yields in heavy oil hydrocracking 

  Felix Lugo Jose Guillermo; Ancheyta Juarez Jorge (2019)

  A kinetic model based on distillation curves for predicting the liquid fractions composition (residue, vacuum gas oil, middle distillates, and naphtha) in heavy crude oil hydrocracking was developed, whereby the yield of ...
