Publisher's Synopsis
The symposium on "Hydrotreatment and Hydrocracking of Oil Fractions" aims to provide a global perspective and an inspection of the state-of-the-art of these processes. New American, European and Japanese environmental regulations call for advanced hydrotreatment processes for HDS and HDN for the removal of S- and Ni-components from oil fractions. These will alter the product slate of the oil refineries and the hydrocarbon composition of these products. Hydrocracking will play an important part in this shift. This text presents the findings of the sysmposium.
