Catalytic Pyrolysis of Oilsand Bitumen Over Nanoporous Catalysts
The catalytic cracking of oilsand bitumen was performed over nanoporous materials at atmospheric conditions. The yield of gas increased with application of nanoporous catalysts, with the catalytic conversion to gas highest for Meso-MFI. The cracking activity seemed to correlate with
pore size rather than weak acidity or surface area.
