Capital-free techniques such as catalyst and additive programs are viable options when meeting clean fuel specifications
Without doubt, transportation fuels are becoming
"cleaner." Globally, governments mandate lower sulfur
concentrations for gasoline. Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC)
catalysts have demonstrated promising results and have
reduced the sulfur content of product streams. However, new
less capital-intensive methods such as FCC additives are
available and have been successful in adsorbing complex
sulfur-containing molecules from product streams.
Clean fuels - a global mandate. Worldwide,
governments now regulate the composition and quality of
transportation fuels, in particular gasoline, to reduce
automobile exhaust emissions. As
