CPP [Catalytic Pyrolysis Process] A Hybrid DCC-steam cracking process, developed by Stone and Webster and piloted in China. 

In industry, heterogeneous catalytic reactions are frequently performed not only at elevated temperatures but also at higher pressure. For EPR spectroscopy of catalysts under such practical conditions, suitable high-pressure/high-temperature reactors are needed, but there are only a few examples of EPR spectroscopy cells meeting these requirements. Moreover, they are more than 20 years old and were developed primarily for non-catalytic pyrolysis processes. Nevertheless, they seem to be suited without notable modifications for heterogeneous catalytic reactions, although no such applications are reported in the recent literature. 

The catalytic pyrolysis process is characterized by the very high liquid fuel yield and the low noncondensable gas and solid residue yields in contrast to thermal pyrolysis. The diesel product from the NanoFuel Diesel process has a cetane number of >56, is completely desulphurized and the chain-end double bonds are saturated in the process. 

This book covers thermal and catalytic pyrolysis processes that produce liquid fuels (or other useful chemicals) from waste plastics. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the main commercial plastics pyrolysis processes, the types of plastics that can be processed, the properties of the respective fuels produced and the key variables influencing the pyrolysis of plastics such as temperature, residence time, pressure and catalyst types. 

Economics ROG streams from FCC units, deep catalytic cracking (DCC) units, catalytic pyrolysis process (CPP) units and coker units are normally used as fuel gas in refineries. However, these streams contain significant amounts of olefins (ethylene and propylene), which can be economically recovered. In fact, many such streams can be recovered with project payout times of less than one year. 

The Catalytic Pyrolysis Process (CPP), also developed by RIPP of SINOPEC, is an extension of DCC which gives an increased ethylene yield while keeping propylene production at a reasonable rate. The key features of this process are as follows ... 

CPP [Catalytic Pyrolysis Process] A general term for processes that convert biomass to useful products by heating in the absence of air. 

Fuel industry is of increasing importance because of the rapidly growing energy needs worldwide. Many processes in fuel industry, e.g. fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) [1], pyrolysis and hydrogenation of heavy oils [2], Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis [3,4], methanol and dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis [5,6], are all carried out in multiphase reactors. The reactors for these processes are very large in scale. Unfortunately, they are complicated in design and their scale-up is very difflcult. Therefore, more and more attention has been paid to this field. The above mentioned chemical reactors, in which we are especially involved like deep catalytic pyrolysis and one-step synthesis of dimethyl ether, are focused on in this paper. 

Chapter 4 deals with several physical and chemical processes featuring various types of active particles to be detected by semiconductor sensors. The most important of them are recombination of atoms and radicals, pyrolysis of simple molecules on hot filaments, photolysis in gaseous phase and in absorbed layer as well as separate stages of several catalytic heterogeneous processes developing on oxides. In this case semiconductor adsorbents play a two-fold role they are acting botii as catalysts and as sensitive elements, i.e. sensors in respect to intermediate active particles appearing on the surface of catalyst in the course of development of catal rtic process.

Alternative pathways, also discussed in part in the various chapters, include (catalytic) pyrolysis, flash or fast processes for wet biomass without pre-drying, hydro-thermal upgrading (HTU), conversion of solid biomass more or less directly into a natural-gas equivalent called substitute natural gas (SNG), or even to hydrogen. 

Following the identification of CNTs [4,3] and the optimized synthesis methods including arc discharge and catalytic pyrolysis, applications were sought for these structures. However, CNTs exhibit characteristic properties, for example, low dispersibility, that limit their processability and thus their applications in composite fabrication. 

Actually, catalytic hydrodenitrogenation is an industrially applicable process for reducing the level of nitrogen content in mineral feed-stocks. For this reason, catalytic pyrolysis was investigated as an alternative process also, in order to minimize the problems of heterogeneity of the products (132). 

The term mixed xylenes describes a mixture containing the three xylene isomers and usually EB. Commercial sources of mixed xylenes include catalytic refonuate. pyrolysis gasoline, toluene disproportionation product, and coke-oven light oil. Ethylbenzene is present in all of these sources except toluene disproportionation product. Catalytic reformate is the product obtained from catalytic reforming processes. 

New spatial forms of carbon - fullerenes, nanotubes, nanowires and nanofibers attract significant interest since the time of their discovery due to their unique physicochemical and mechanical properties [1-3]. There are three basic methods of manufacturing of the carbon nanomaterials (CNM) - laser evaporation, electric arc process, and catalytic pyrolysis of hydrocarbons. However, the multi-stage manufacturing process is a serious disadvantage for all of them. For example, the use of organic solvents (benzol, toluene, etc.) for separation of fullerenes from graphite soot results in delay of the synthesis process and decrease in the final product quantity. Moreover, some environmental problems can arise at this. 

Thus, two processes take place at atime carbonization and partially graphitization of PAN and catalytic pyrolysis of eliminated.
