Abstract

Gasoline is considered as a high caloric value fuel with high potential for commercial applications such as transportation, electricity generation and production of chemicals. Currently, the majority of gasoline at industrial scale is supplied from the distillation of crude oil. In the present paper, an experimental study of catalytic pyrolysis of oil sludge was carried out to produce gasoline. The influence of low-temperature operation on the char conversion was also studied. Results showed that the Ni content has also a positive effect on the char conversion; however, the reaction temperature has a higher effect. The effect of heating rate on the char conversion and gasoline yield was also studied, and concluded that the heating rate plays a major role in the char conversion and gasoline production.
