A Novel Approach to Delay Thermal and Autoxidative Fouling Caused by Aromatics in Heavy oil and Petrochemicals Using Tetrahydrofurfuryl Alcohol
DownloadSpring 2023
Tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA) is a widely used solvent. It is a preferred solvent since it is derived from biomass. Multiple patents have reported that adding THFA during heavy oil processing improves the efficiency of the process and increases the yield. One patent for instance reported that...

Addressing Diameter Non-uniformity in the Melt Spinning of Asphaltenes-Derived Carbon Fibres
DownloadSpring 2023
Asphaltenes offer a cheap alternative to the predominant precursor currently used in the manufacture of carbon fibres. Melt spinning is typically employed for transforming asphaltenes into a fibrous form but faces two challenges: inconsistent or poor spinnability and a large diameter variation in...
