Summary: It was found that treating MCM-22 zeolite with NaOH significantly enhanced its catalytic activity in the oligomerization of 1-decene. Increasing the NaOH treatment time resulted in higher conversion rate and dimer selectivity. After being treated with a 0.1 mol/L NaOH solution for 7 hours, the conversion increased from 68% to 76% and dimer selectivity increased from 49% to 61%. The NaOH-treated MCM-22 zeolite showed improved catalytic performance even after regeneration by roasting at 550 degrees C.

Summary: A promising production route for high-quality lubricant base stock involves oligomerizing high molecular-weight olefins in a high energy efficiency system. The study on oligomerization of 1-decene over a HY zeolite catalyst in a microwave-assisted system showed that higher reaction temperatures resulted in increased formation of dimers and trimers. Kinetic models were formulated for the dimerization and trimerization reactions, with apparent activation energies of 70.8 ± 0.8 and 83.6 ± 0.9 kJ/mol, respectively.

Summary: The active catalysts and product distribution of the BF3/n-C4H9OH-catalyzed 1-decene oligomerization reaction were investigated using molecular simulation. The results showed that (BF3)(2)center dot n-C4H9OH had higher catalytic activity compared to BF3 center dot n- C4H9OH, which was the most active substance in the catalyst system. The calculation results of reaction energy barriers and heats of reaction revealed the product distribution, with trimer, tetramer, pentamer, and dimer being the main oligomerization products. These results were consistent with the experimental findings.

Summary: This study investigates the oligomerization of pentene and hexene mixtures using an acidic mesoporous Al-SBA-15 catalyst. The results show that the catalyst exhibits high selectivity to jet-fuel range products (>98%) at low-to-moderate conversions (<50%). Higher conversions result in lower selectivities. It is also found that adjusting the conversion is the primary way to control the selectivity of the catalyst.

Summary: Torrefaction and hydrothermal carbonization are low-temperature thermochemical procedures that convert biomass into biocoal, which is a carbon-neutral alternative to fossil coal. Biocoals have hydrophobic properties, increased energy density, and similar calorific value to brown coals compared to untreated biomass. The formation mechanisms of biocoal differ between the two processes due to the presence of a large amount of water in hydrothermal carbonization. This review focuses on papers discussing specific features of low-temperature heat treatment of biomass and the conversion trends of biomass structural components (cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin) during torrefaction and hydrothermal carbonization.

Summary: The study investigates the hydrogenation of CO2 using catalysts supported on biochar. Bimetallic iron-cobalt catalysts were found to have better catalytic performance compared to monometallic iron and cobalt catalysts. The optimal performance was achieved with an iron to cobalt ratio of 3:1. The composition and genesis of the active phase in the bimetallic catalyst were identified, and a CO2 hydrogenation mechanism was proposed for the iron-dominated bimetallic catalyst. The use of biochar as a support was found to promote the formation of an active phase favorable for CO2 hydrogenation.

Summary: This study demonstrates the relationship between mercaptan content in straight-run jet fuel and the operation conditions of column C-1 in the primary oil refining plant. Increasing the temperature at the bottom of column C-1 leads to the decomposition of unstable sulfur compounds, resulting in the removal of mercaptans and hydrogen sulfide with the gasoline fraction in column C-1. This reduces the mercaptan content in straight-run kerosene. A comparison of mercaptan contents in narrow oil fractions and straight-run jet fuel reveals that the latter has higher mercaptan content, which can originate from both the oil itself and the decomposition of unstable sulfur compounds, primarily disulfides.

Summary: The study investigates the potential use of lower alkyl ethers of glycerol as components for low-melting technical fluids. The aqueous solutions of glycerol ethers were found to have a wide temperature range of usability (-114 to 150 degrees C) and exhibited higher efficiency in low-temperature applications compared to glycerol- or propylene glycol-based fluids due to their lower viscosities and favorable environmental properties.
