Development of heavy metal passivators in residue fluid catalytic cracking process (2022)
Journal Article
Salahshour, P., Yavari, M., Güleç, F., Karaca, H., Tarighi, S., & Habibzadeh, S. (2022). Development of heavy metal passivators in residue fluid catalytic cracking process. Journal of Composites and Compounds, 4(13), 186-194. https://doi.org/10.52547/jcc.4.4.3

The advancement of residual fluid catalytic cracking (RFCC) is significantly influenced by the development of heavy metals passivation technology. Resids often include larger concentrations of heavy metals (Ni, V, and Fe) than gas oils, primarily in...

Data-Driven Machine Learning Approach for Predicting the Higher Heating Value of Different Biomass Classes (2022)
Journal Article
Afolabi, I. C., Epelle, E. I., Gunes, B., Güleç, F., & Okolie, J. A. (2022). Data-Driven Machine Learning Approach for Predicting the Higher Heating Value of Different Biomass Classes. Clean Technologies, 4(4), 1227-1241. https://doi.org/10.3390/cleantechnol4040075

Higher heating values (HHV) is a very useful parameter for assessing the design and large-scale operation of biomass-driven energy systems. HHV is conventionally measured experimentally with an adiabatic oxygen bomb calorimeter. This procedure is oft...
