Common approaches for modeling of catalytic reactors for steady-state and dynamic simulations are also described and analyzed. Aspects such as thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, process variables, process scheme, and reactor design are discussed in detail from both research and commercial points of view. Results of simulation with the developed models are compared with those determined at pilot plant scale as well as commercial practice. Kinetics data used in the reactor model are either taken from the literature or obtained under controlled experiments at the laboratory.  \u003cb\u003ePREFACE.\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Petroleum Refining.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Properties of Petroleum.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Assay of Crude Oils.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Separation Processes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.4 Upgrading of Distillates.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.5 Upgrading of Heavy Feeds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Reactor Modeling in Petroleum Refining Industry.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Description of Reactors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Deviation from an Ideal Flow Pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Kinetic Modeling Approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Reactor Modeling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3.
