What are the Types of Catalysts Used in Fuel Production?
Several types of catalysts are employed in fuel production, including:
Zeolites: Microporous, aluminosilicate minerals commonly used as catalysts in the cracking process. Metal Catalysts: Platinum, palladium, and nickel are often used in reforming and hydrogenation processes. Acid Catalysts: Sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid are used in alkylation processes.
