Abstract
The three different power-law kinetic models proposed by Trejo et al. (2007) for the hydrocracking of asphaltenes are discriminated under periodic operation. In the present work, the analysis of a plug flow reactor for these three models can be shown to have identical conversion of asphaltenes under conventional steady state operation. The behavior of the models under the periodic operation in the feed concentration cycling in asphaltenes and/or hydrogen concentration is evaluated for the average conversion of asphaltenes. The effect of different feed concentration cycling modes is also evaluated.
