Petroleum
cokes with different chemical structures and oxygen-containing
functional groups were obtained from two kinds of naphthenic- and
paraffin-base crude oils by simulating an in situ combustion (ISC)
process with the same reaction atmosphere and different reaction temperatures.
13
C wide-cavity solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (
13
C NMR) spectroscopy was used to identify and investigate
the oxygen-containing functional groups of petroleum cokes obtained
under different compositions and reaction temperatures. This study
demonstrated that with the increase of coking temperature, the content
of alkyl side chain and active oxygen-containing functional groups
in naphthenic-base crude coke decreased obviously, while the content
of aromatic carbon increased. The
13
C NMR analysis of the
two kinds of petroleum cokes obtained at 500 °C further revealed
that the paraffin-base petroleum coke retained a high content of oxygen-
and nitrogen-rich functional groups, while the naphthenic-base petroleum
coke had a lower amount of carbonyl groups and oxygen-containing functional
groups.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
