Silicon speciation has recently gained interest in the oil and gas industry due to the impact of silicon species on hydrotreatment (HDT) catalysts. The determination of the chemical structure of silicon compounds appears as essential to limit silicon poisoning as to improve the lifetime of catalysts. To achieve a representative speciation of silicon in petroleum products, fresh samples of PDMS degradation...
Silicon species are becoming emergent contaminants in the oil and gas industry due to their severe poisoning effect on the hydrotreatment (HDT) catalysts. Using an experimental pilot plant, fresh and representative samples of PDMS degradation under thermal cracking of hydrocarbons were produced. To follow the evolution of silicon species, the gas fraction was immediately analyzed by GC/TOFMS after...
In the oil and gas industry, silicon coming from antifoaming agents, is recognized to be an emergent contaminant for hydrotreatment catalyst due to its negative effect on their performance. Using a pilot plant, representative samples of the thermal degradation of antifoaming agent such as polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) were produced under evaluated thermal cracking of hydrocarbons with the presence...
