Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua

Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua

Many oil refineries employ hydroprocessing for removing sulfur and other impurities from petroleum feedstocks. Capable of handling heavier feedstocks than other refining techniques hydroprocessing enables refineries to produce higher quality products from unconventional — and formerly wasted — sources. Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua illustrates how to obtain maximum yields of high-value products from heavy oils and residue using hydroprocessing technologies. While most resources on hydroprocessing concentrate ongas oil and lower boiling products this book details the chemistry involved and the process modifications required for the hydroprocessing of heavy crude oils and residua. Emphasizing the use of effective catalysts to ensure cleaner and more efficient industrial fuel processes the book presents key principles of heterogeneous catalyst preparation catalyst loading and reactor systems. It explains how to evaluate and account for catalysts reactor type process variables feedstock type and feedstock composition in the design of hydroprocessing operations. The text concludes with examples of commercial processes and discusses methods of hydrogen production. To meet the growing demand for transportation fuels and fuel oil modern oil refineries must find ways to produce high quality fuel products from increasingly heavy feedstocks. Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua contains the fundamental concepts technologies and process modifications refineries need to adapt current hydroprocessing technologies for processing heavier feedstocks.

Coal-Mining Women in Japan Heavy Burdens

Coal-Mining Women in Japan Heavy Burdens

In the years Bbetween the Meiji Restoration in 1868 and the beginning of the war mobilization boom in 1930 collieries in Europe and America embraced new technologies and had long since been excluded women from working underground. In Japan however mining women witnessed no significant changes in working practices over this period. The availability of the cheap and abundant labor of these women allowed the captains of the coal industry in Japan to avoid expensive investments in new machinery and sophisticated mining methods; instead they continued to intensely exploit workers and markets intensively making substantial profits without the burdens of extensive mechanization. This unique book explores the lives of the thousands of women who labored underground in Japan’s coal mines in the years 1868 to 1930. It examines their working lives their family lives their aspirations achievements and disappointments. Drawing heavily on interview material with the miners themselves W. Donald Burton combines translations of their stories with features of Japanese society at the time and coal mining technology. In doing so he presents a complex account of the women’s lives as well as providing a keen insight intoon gender relations and the industrial and labor history of Japan. Coal Mining Women in Japan will be welcomed by students and scholars of Japanese history gender studies and industrial history. | Coal-Mining Women in Japan Heavy Burdens

Introduction to Nuclear Reactions

Introduction to Nuclear Reactions

Until the publication of the first edition of Introduction to Nuclear Reactions in 2004 an introductory reference on nuclear reactions had been unavailable. Now fully updated throughout this second edition continues to provide an authoritative overview of nuclear reactions. It discusses the main formalisms ranging from basic laws to the final formulae used in academic research to calculate measurable quantities. Well known in their fields the authors begin with a basic introduction to elements of scattering theory followed by a study of its applications to specific nuclear reactions. Early chapters give a framework of compound nucleus formation and its decay fusion fission and direct reactions that can be easily understood by the novice. These chapters also serve as prototypes for applications of the underlying physical ideas presented in previous chapters. The largest section of the book comprises the physical models that have been developed to account for the various aspects of nuclear reaction phenomena including reactions in stellar environments cosmic rays and during the big bang. The final chapters survey applications of the eikonal wavefunction and of nuclear transport equations to nuclear reactions at high energies. By combining a thorough theoretical approach with applications to recent experimental data Introduction to Nuclear Reactions helps you understand the results of experimental measurements rather than describe how they are made. A clear treatment of the topics and coherent organization make this information understandable to students and professionals with a solid foundation in physics as well as to those with a more general science and technology background. Features: Analyses in detail different models of the nucleus and discusses their interrelations. Fully updated throughout with new sections and additional discussions on stellar evolution big bang nucleosynthesis neutron stars and relativistic heavy ion collisions. Discusses the latest developments in nuclear reaction theory and experiments and explores both direct reaction theories and heavy ion reactions which are newly important to nuclear physics in reactions with rare nuclear isotopes.
