Abstract:A kinetic model for the catalytic reforming process was developed at the molecular level. The structure-oriented lumping (SOL) method was modified to fit catalytic reforming, and a structural increment was created to distinguish between the xylene isomers; the xylene isomers are important reforming products. To model the governing chemistry, a reaction network involving 140 molecules and 697 reactions was generated in terms of 16 reaction rules. Then, a mathematical model of the naphtha reforming process was d… Show more
