Thermodynamic analysis of energy efficiency in catalytic reforming

Robert S. Kapner and Arvo Lannus

Energy, 1980, vol. 5, issue 8, 915-924

Abstract: Energy utilization of catalytic reforming, an important petroleum refining process, is examined using the minimum energy requirements derived from thermodynamic laws. Such an analysis requires that the process be investigated with techniques from the second law of thermodynamics, as opposed to a conve'ntional first law analysis.
