  2. Skyblock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyblock

    Skyblock is a minigame in the sandbox video game Minecraft. [1] The original minigame consists of a small island floating in the air, on which a player must survive on, [2] although the gameplay and rules may vary. [3] It was originally created by a user going by the name Noobcrew in 2011, and subsequently published to minecraftforum. [4]

  3. Fluid catalytic cracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_catalytic_cracking

    A typical fluid catalytic cracking unit in a petroleum refinery. Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is the conversion process used in petroleum refineries to convert the high-boiling point, high-molecular weight hydrocarbon fractions of petroleum (crude oils) into gasoline, alkene gases, and other petroleum products.

  4. Catalytic reforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_reforming

    However, independently of the crude oil used in the refinery, all catalysts require a maximum final boiling point of the naphtha feedstock of 180 °C. Normally, the catalyst can be regenerated perhaps 3 or 4 times before it must be returned to the manufacturer for reclamation of the valuable platinum and/or rhenium content.

  5. Hydrodesulfurization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrodesulfurization

    Hydrodesulfurization or hydrodesulphurisation (Commonwealth English; see spelling differences) (HDS), also called hydrotreatment or hydrotreating, is a catalytic chemical process widely used to remove sulfur (S) from natural gas and from refined petroleum products, such as gasoline or petrol, jet fuel, kerosene, diesel fuel, and fuel oils.

  6. Cracking (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cracking_(chemistry)

    The "spent" catalyst then flows into a fluidized-bed regenerator where air (or in some cases air plus oxygen) is used to burn off the coke to restore catalyst activity and also provide the necessary heat for the next reaction cycle, cracking being an endothermic reaction. The "regenerated" catalyst then flows to the base of the riser, repeating ...

  7. Equilibrium catalyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_catalyst

    Equilibrium Catalyst refers to the deactivated or spent catalyst after use in a chemical reaction. The main player in oil refining processes such as fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydroprocessing , hydrocracking is the catalyst or zeolitic material, that breaks down complex and long-chain hydrocarbons into simple, useful hydrocarbons.

  8. Gas to liquids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_to_liquids

    Gas to liquids (GTL) is a refinery process to convert natural gas or other gaseous hydrocarbons into longer-chain hydrocarbons, such as gasoline or diesel fuel. Methane -rich gases are converted into liquid synthetic fuels .

  9. Biorefinery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biorefinery

    The Alpena biorefinery plant in the USA. A biorefinery is a refinery that converts biomass to energy and other beneficial byproducts (such as chemicals). The International Energy Agency Bioenergy Task 42 defined biorefining as "the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of bio-based products (food, feed, chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (biofuels, power and/or heat)".
