Abstract
Abstract
The skin effect causes about 86% of the energy to be concentrated in the narrow surface layer during the induction heating process, which leads to the uneven temperature distribution during the treatment of flowing liquid by induction heating technology. The concentration of heat caused by the skin effect can be avoided by dispersing the induced heating metal structure in the treated fluid, but in most cases, this will lead to a decrease in heating efficiency. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to compare and design the susceptor structures that can avoid the heating concentration problem caused by the skin effect and have higher efficiency. Hence, in this research four kinds of susceptor structures that are the metal sphere, sheet metal, static mixer, and metal pipe were studied. The results show that the combination of metal sphere susceptor and sheet metal susceptor can result in higher heating efficiency than the metal sphere susceptor alone. Ferromagnetic stainless steel with lower relative permeability is more suitable for making sheet metal susceptor than paramagnetic stainless steel. Adding internal components to the metal pipe susceptor will not change its heating efficiency. The heating efficiency of metal sphere type susceptor, sheet metal susceptor, and static mixer susceptor can be up to 58%, 64%, and 67%, respectively. When 430 metal pipe heater is used, the highest heating efficiency can be obtained, and the highest heating efficiency is 80%.

Hydrogenation and Dehydrogenation of Tetralin and Naphthalene to Explore Heavy Oil Upgrading Using NiMo/Al2O3 and CoMo/Al2O3 Catalysts Heated with Steel Balls via Induction. Catalysts 2020.

Abstract
This paper reports the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of tetralin and naphthalene as model reactions that mimic polyaromatic compounds found in heavy oil. The focus is to explore complex heavy oil upgrading using NiMo/Al2O3 and CoMo/Al2O3 catalysts heated inductively with 3 mm steel balls. The application is to augment and create uniform temperature in the vicinity of the CAtalytic upgrading PRocess In-situ (CAPRI) combined with the Toe-to-Heel Air Injection (THAI) process. The effect of temperature in the range of 210–380 °C and flowrate of 1–3 mL/min were studied at catalyst/steel balls 70% (v/v), pressure 18 bar, and gas flowrate 200 mL/min (H2 or N2). The fixed bed kinetics data were described with a first-order rate equation and an assumed plug flow model. It was found that Ni metal showed higher hydrogenation/dehydrogenation functionality than Co. As the reaction temperature increased from 210 to 300 °C, naphthalene hydrogenation increased, while further temperature increases to 380 °C caused a decrease. The apparent activation energy achieved for naphthalene hydrogenation was 16.3 kJ/mol. The rate of naphthalene hydrogenation was faster than tetralin with the rate constant in the ratio of 1:2.5 (tetralin/naphthalene). It was demonstrated that an inductively heated mixed catalytic bed had a smaller temperature gradient between the catalyst and the surrounding fluid than the conventional heated one. This favored endothermic tetralin dehydrogenation rather than exothermic naphthalene hydrogenation. It was also found that tetralin dehydrogenation produced six times more coke and caused more catalyst pore plugging than naphthalene hydrogenation. Hence, hydrogen addition enhanced the desorption of products from the catalyst surface and reduced coke formation.

Abstract
AbstractThe Toe-to-Heel Air Injection (THAI) combined with a catalytic add-on (CAPRI, CATalytic upgrading PRocess In-situ) have been a subject of investigation since 2002. The major challenges have been catalyst deactivation due to coke deposition and low temperatures (~ 300 °C) of the mobilised hot oil flowing over the catalyst packing around the horizontal well. Tetralin has been used to suppress coke formation and also improve upgraded oil quality due to its hydrogen-donor capability. Herein, inductive heating (IH) incorporated to the horizontal production well is investigated as one means to resolve the temperature shortfall. The effect of reaction temperature on tetralin dehydrogenation and hydrogen evolution over NiMo/Al2O3 catalyst at 250–350 °C, catalyst-to-steel ball ratio (70% v/v), 18 bar and 0.75 h−1 was investigated. As temperature increased from 250 to 350 °C, tetralin conversion increased from 40 to 88% while liberated hydrogen increased from 0.36 to 0.88 mol based on 0.61 mol of tetralin used. The evolved hydrogen in situ hydrogenated unreacted tetralin to trans and cis-decalins with the selectivity of cis-decalin slightly more at 250 °C while at 300–350 °C trans-decalin showed superior selectivity. With IH the catalyst bed temperature was closer to the desired temperature (300 °C) with a mean of 299.2 °C while conventional heating is 294.3 °C. This thermal advantage and the nonthermal effect from electromagnetic field under IH improved catalytic activity and reaction rate, though coke formation increased.
