Predicting Pyrolysis of a Wide Variety of Petroleum Coke Using an Independent Parallel Reaction Model and a Backpropagation Neural Network.

ABSTRACT: In this work, the pyrolysis behavior and gaseous products of petroleum coke were investigated by nonisothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and thermogravimetry-mass spectrometry (TG-MS). Then, the pyrolysis kinetics of six kinds of petroleum coke (Fushun (FS), Fuyu (FY), Wuhan (WH), Zhenhai (ZH), Qilu (QL), and Shijiazhuang (SJZ)) were determined by an independent parallel reaction (IPR) model, and the kinetic parameters (activation energy and preexponential factor) were obtained. In addition, an efficient backpropagation neural network (BPNN) was developed to predict the thermal data of six kinds of petroleum coke. The BPNN-predicted thermal data were used to calculate the kinetic parameters based on the IPR model, and the results were compared with the ones calculated using experime
