“…Searching coupling reaction pathways: For example, alcohol dehydrogenation (such as butane-1,4-diol and 2-phenylethanol) towards the corresponding products and H 2 generation [75][76][77][78] may be coupled with the 5-HMF selective hydrogenation, allowing in situ generation of H 2 and efficient production of 2,5-DMF.…”

This review article describes the most recent studies carried out in the catalytic conversion of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural (5‐HMF) in 2,5‐dimethylfurane (2,5‐DMF). In this way, the most novel catalytic materials are presented and their main results during 2,5‐DMF production through catalytic hydrogen transfer (CHT) by hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis reactions and through hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reaction as commonly routes employed. Additionally, the optimized reaction conditions applying for each catalyst are discussed. Some future perspectives on the use of CHT and HDO processes in the 2,5‐DMF production from 5‐HMF as platform molecule in order to suggest new applications of pathways in the heterogeneous catalysis field are presented.

“…Over the years, several ranges of process simulators have been deployed in several industrial, research, and teaching functions across the globe [12][13][14][15][16]. Some research functions have cut across its deployment in equipment design and analysis, energy integration, process optimization for production yield improvement, design of new processes, and a lot more in biofuels, petroleum re ning, petrochemical processing, energy generation, etc.…”

“…This was because commercial process simulators are largely publicized for their capability and much more accepted due to their long-term quality outputs. Some of these process simulators include Aspen HYSYS [17,18], ChemCAD [13,19], SuperPro Designer [20,21], UniSim [22,23], and many others. However, most of these commercial process simulators are extremely expensive for training institutions and research institutes in low-income developing nations due to poor government funding of research and education programs in such countries.…”

Process simulators remain integral to training engineers across industries, encompassing nuclear, petrochemical, biochemical, and chemical sectors. Their role in teaching various chemical engineering disciplines, including design, integration, thermodynamics, safety, and separation processes, is invaluable. While most simulators are commercial, known for user-friendliness and global confidence, their high costs limit accessibility for low-income schools. In contrast, freeware simulators, though less recognized, present a cost-effective alternative. This study compares the predictive capabilities of commercial and freeware simulators, demonstrating the reliability of open-source options. The recommendation emerges to instruct process engineers using affordable freeware simulators, particularly in economically challenged regions where research funding is scarce.

Catalytic reforming is a key technology in the petroleum refining and petrochemical industry. In recent years, countercurrent continuous reforming has put forward and practiced the new concept of matching the activity of the catalyst with the difficulty of the reaction. Based on the equation-oriented method, the steady-state model for the reactor-regenerator section of countercurrent continuous reforming was established, including the reactor module, the regenerator module, the compressor model, the heat exchanger model, the heating furnace model, and the oil property model. The inlet and outlet of each module are connected according to the actual technological process, and the model conforms to the requirement of real-time optimization (RTO). The sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm is used for calculation in this study. The model is calibrated to make the calculated value more consistent with the actual value. The model simulation showed the trend of the reforming reaction and the difference between countercurrent reforming and cocurrent reforming. Finally, the process model was optimized for different goals such as the yield of aromatics, the yield of high-octane gasoline, and the yield of C7 + aromatics. These results indicate that the established model can simulate the actual industrial process, which can meet the requirements of RTO, and obtain considerable profits for different optimization objectives.
