Hydrocarbons gaseous

Sources of gaseous hydrocarbons are the natural gas wells and chemical manufacturing processes. Major constituents of natural gas is primarily composed of methane (over 90%) and smaller compositions of other gases like ethane, propane, butane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen.

Appreciable quantities are also obtained as a by-product in the manufacture of hydrogen from naphtha-gaseous hydrocarbons. In this process the gaseous hydrocarbon and superheated steam under a pressure of about 10 atmospheres and at a temperature of 1000 K are passed over a nickel-chromium catalyst. Carbon monoxide and hydrogen are produced ... 

Carbon Blacks. Carbon blacks are occasionally used as components in mixes to make various types of carbon products. Carbon blacks are generally prepared by deposition from the vapor phase using petroleum distillate or gaseous hydrocarbon feedstocks (see Carbon, carbon black). 

The flame ionization detector is capable of measuring only gaseous hydrocarbons, in other words, hydrocarbons that have a low boiling point. Emission gases can, however, also contain hydrocarbons in liquid form at ambient temperature and pressure. Therefore, analyzers based on flame ionization detection are generally equipped with heating elements to keep rhe sampling line and the detector at about 200 °C. 

Reaction of the heated metal with gaseous hydrocarbon. 

The terms oil production and gas production refer to rates of extraction of liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon materials from natural underground deposits. Reserves and resources, on the other hand, refer to amounts of oil and gas that are present in the deposits, the difference between reserves and resources being whether or not the amounts can be economically recovered under current conditions. Supply refers to the amount of a product that becomes available for... 

Petroleum engineers are traditionally involved in activities known in the oil industry as the front end of the petroleum fuel cycle (petroleum is either liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons derived from natural deposits—reservoirs—in the earth). These front end activities are namely exploration (locating and proving out the new geological provinces with petroleum reservoirs that may be exploited in the future), and development (the systematic drilling, well completion, and production of economically producible reservoirs). Once the raw petroleum fluids (e.g., crude oil and natural gas) have been produced from the earth, the back end of the fuel cycle takes the produced raw petroleum fluids and refines the.se fluids into useful products. 

The petroleum industry is a highly complex primary industry. Its function in society is to provide a reliable supply of liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon fuels and lubricants (and well as other related products) for both industrial and private customers. The industry is composed of two basic business elements 1 ) producing companies (often called operating companies) and 2) service companies. 

Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons having the general formula CnH2n+2- The simplest alkane, methane (CH4), is the principal constituent of natural gas. Methane, ethane, propane, and butane are gaseous hydrocarbons at ambient temperatures and atmospheric pressure. They are usually found associated with crude oils in a dissolved state. 

Natural gas (or raw gas) is gas as produced from a reservoir. It is a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons and may also contain varying amounts of other gases (N2, CO2, H2S, He, Ar, etc.). In many places natural gas is associated with the formation of oil, in other places it is related to the coalification of organic material. 

From literature sources, find the critical temperatures for the gaseous hydrocarbons methane, ethane, propane, and butane. Explain the trends observed. 

Heats of combustion of gaseous hydrocarbons containing double bonds ... 

C05-0072. Gaseous hydrocarbons, which contain only carbon and hydrogen, are good fuels because they bum in air to generate large amounts of heat. A sample of hydrocarbon with m— 1.65 g exerts a pressure of 1.50 atm in a 945-mL bulb at 21.5 °C. Determine the molar mass and chemical formula of this hydrocarbon. 

Caustic washing. Here, caustic solution 5-15% strength is reacted with liquid gasoline or gaseous hydrocarbons. This interacts with H2S and lower molecular-weight mercaptans and they are thus removed. 

The evolution in the composition of the residual organic matter is studied by OSA in the coke zone and in all the zone ahead of the combustion front. Whatever the oil, in each sand sample, the amount of gaseous hydrocarbons (SO) is low because all the light hydrocarbons have been stripped by the gas flow. 

Less hydrogen consumption may be required for the production of high quality products because less gaseous hydrocarbon byproducts are produced. 

The residue from a large scale atmospheric pressure distillation of trimethyl phosphate exploded violently. This was attributed to rapid decomposition of the ester, catalysed by the acidic degradation products, with evolution of gaseous hydrocarbons. It is recommended that only small batches of alkyl phosphates should be vacuum distilled and in presence of magnesium oxide to neutralise any acid by-products, and to suppress the acid catalysed reaction. 

Violent explosions occur when fluorine directly contacts liquid hydrocarbons, even at —210 with anthracene or turpentine, or solid methane at — 190°C with liquid fluorine. Many lubricants ignite in fluorine [1,2]. Contact and reaction under carefully controlled conditions with catalysis can now be effected smoothly [3], Gaseous hydrocarbons (town gas, methane) ignite in contact with fluorine, and mixtures with unsaturated hydrocarbons (ethylene, acetylene) may explode on exposure to sunlight. Each bubble of fluorine passed through benzene causes ignition, but a rapid stream may lead to explosion [4],... 

A mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons, principally methane, which issues from the earth in certain areas, particularly near petroleum wells. Natural gas was the main source of carbon black until some 50 years ago when it was found more economic to use the gas for heating and produce carbon black from petroleum residues by the more efficient furnace process. 

Within experimental error, the gaseous hydrocarbon could be ethane (C2H6) with MW of 30.1 g/mol. 

What about measurements of enthalpies of combustion of condensed phase species 49 and 50 and accompanying enthalpies of vaporization Enthalpies of formation of the gaseous hydrocarbons can be directly obtained from these studies as well. There are two recent studies that provide us with useful information. The first42 results in the values of 104.6 0.6 and 104.8 0.6 kJmol-1 respectively. The second accompanies the earlier cited cyclic bisallene (and polycyclic monoolefin) study, in which the authors20... 

It is well known that such quantities as the standard free energy, enthalpy and entropy display a remarkable tendency to be additive functions of independent contributions of part-structures of the molecule. This property, on which the mathematical simplicity of many extrathermodynamic relationships is largely based, is well illustrated, for example, by the enthalpies of formation at 298°K of several homologous series of gaseous hydrocarbons Y(CH2)mH, which are expressed by the relation (28) (Stull et al., 1969). In...
