Extraction of naphthenic acids from acidic petroleum crude oil utilizing 2-methylimidazole with the aid of CA/AL2O3 and CE/AL2O3 catalysts / Emilysa Izani Mohd Fadzil

Naphthenic Acids (NAs) found in crude oil is the major causes of corrosion problems in oil pipelines, distillation unit, storage, and fascilities. As a result, crude oil with high NA will be marketed at lower price and considered as low quality. In this study, catalytic extraction reaction was done...

As a result, crude oil with high NA will be marketed at lower price and considered as low quality. In this study, catalytic extraction reaction was done in order to lowering the Total Acid Number (TAN) in crude oil to below than one mg KOH/g utilizing 2-methylimidazole with the aid of monometallic Ca/Al2O3 and Ce/Al2O3 catalysts. The catalyst was supported on the alumina beads by Incipient Wetness Impregnation (IWI) methods and calcined at calcination temperature of 700C. Thermogravimetry Analysis-Differential Thermal Analysis (TGA-DTA) was used to determine the suitable calcination temperature for both catalysts.

Ca/Al2O3 catalyst gave a better reduction with 0.08 mg KOH/g of TAN value compared to Ce/Al2O3 catalyst which only reduced to 0.65 mg KOH/g of TAN value.
