Abstract
Petroleum residue is a byproduct of oil refineries that has not been utilized optimally so that it accumulates in the stockpile tank causing disruption of the processing of petroleum into motor vehicle fuel. The catalytic conversion of the PPSDM oil and gas residue into liquid fuel has been carried out using a heterogeneous acid catalyst over a bath reactor which has produced a convention of 70% with a temperature of 200 oC for 60 minutes with a pressure of 1 atm. The resulting product was analyzed using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectro (GCMS) with components from C1 to C17 Hydrocarbon.
