Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Adsorption Kinetics of Methane Reformer Off-Gases on Aluminum Based Metal-Organic Framework(Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Angı, Deniz; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher FehimeSolvothermal synthesis of aluminum based metal-organic frameworks (MIL-53(Al)s) were conducted by considering the effects of crystallization and activation temperatures, and the solvent at purification step. Adsorption kinetics of Steam Methane Reformer off gas components at 34, 70 and 100 °C temperatures was measured by using ZLC method. Henry constant decreases as diffusion coefficient of the gases increases with increasing temperature; It was determined that the CO gas has the highest activation energy. Adsorption kinetics of gases were controlled with electrostatic interaction. © 2020 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLCArticle Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 14Effect of Pretreatment on the Performance of Metal-Contaminated Fluid Catalytic Cracking (fcc) Catalysts(Elsevier Ltd., 2004) Bayraktar, Oğuz; Kugler, Edwin L.Effects of both hydrogen and methane pretreatment on the performance of metal-contaminated equilibrium fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts from a refinery were investigated. Both hydrogen and methane pretreatment at 700°C were proven to be advantageous since the yields of hydrogen and coke from sour imported gas oil (SIHGO) cracking decrease while light cycle oil (LCO) and gasoline yields increase. The catalysts pretreated with hydrogen have shown slightly better improvement than the catalysts pretreated with methane. The decrease in the yields of hydrogen and coke was attributed to decrease in the dehydrogenation activity of vanadium oxides, which are present at high concentrations on the equilibrium FCC catalysts. This decrease in dehydrogenation activity after the pretreatment was also confirmed by low hydrogen-to-methane ratio. It was found that reduced vanadium has lower dehydrogenation activity since it produces less coke and hydrogen compared to oxidized vanadium. Hydrogen transfer reactions were evaluated by measuring C4 paraffin-to-C4 olefin ratios. Hydrogen transfer reactions decreased with increasing metal concentration. Both hydrogen and methane pretreatment caused the hydrogen transfer reactions to increase. Improved hydrogen transfer reactions caused an increase in the gasoline range products.
