Liquidation of Petroleum Vacuum Residue with Catalytic Aquathermolysis

Vacuum residue aquathermolysis reactions for heavy oil upgrading are performed at different conditions with Molybdenum Naphthenate catalyst and water as hydrogen donor. Conversion, Elemental Analysis and GC-SIMDIS data confirms that yield of reaction is enough to produce liquid product well and the best is at 20g of water.
