Selective Hydrocracking of Waste Polyolefins toward Gasoline-Range Liquid Fuels via Tandem Catalysis over a Cerium-Promoted Pt/HY Catalyst

Upcycling of waste plastics into value-added chemicals and fuels represents a promising orientation toward a more sustainable chemical industry. We present a selective process for hydrocracking waste polyolefins into a spectrum of branched gasoline-range C_5-12 hydrocarbons, utilizing a cerium-promoted Pt/HY as a metal-acid...

Distribution Network Reconfiguration Considering the Impacts of Local Renewable Generation and External Power Grid

The distribution network (DN) reconfiguration is a well-known optimal power flow (OPF) problem. However, with the transition of DN from 'passive' to 'active', new technical challenges arise in DN reconfiguration. This article addresses two key issues in this regard. Firstly, the integration of local renewable generation (LRG) introduces...
