Abstract We investigated the conversion of light paraffinic naphtha (C5‐C6) into BTX (benzene, toluene, and xylenes) aromatics using 1.0 wt % Pt‐M/ZSM‐5 (modifier M=1 wt% Zn, 2 wt % of Fe, La, Ga) prepared using wet‐impregnation method. The effects of Pt and modifier on light naphtha conversion, yield and aromatic selectivity (benzene, toluene, xylene, C9+ aromatics) were studied in fixed‐bed flow reactor in atmospheric pressure, at 550 °C, and WHSV 1.0 h −1 . Catalytic efficiency of modified Pt or Pt‐M ZSM‐ ...

Transportation electrification is a valid option for supporting decarbonization efforts but, at the same time, the growing number of electric vehicles will produce new and unpredictable load conditions for the electrical networks. Accurate electric vehicle load forecasting becomes essential to reduce adverse effects of electric vehicle integration into the grid. In this paper, a methodology dedicated to probabilistic electric vehicle load forecasting for different geographic regions is presented. ...

The adoption of electric vehicles (EV) has to be complemented with the right charging infrastructure roll-out. This infrastructure is already in place in many cities throughout the main markets of China, EU and USA. Public policies are both taken at regional and/or at a city level targeting both EV adoption, but also charging infrastructure management. A growing trend is the increasing idle time over the years (time an EV is connected without charging), which directly impacts on the sizing of the ...
