During the upgrading of heavy petroleum, asphaltene is the most problematic impurity since it is the main cause of catalyst deactivation and sediments formation. Exploring many aspects related to asphaltenes composition and conversion, this book highlights the changes that these heavy and complex molecules undergo during catalytic hydroprocessing.
