Kinetics of Bitumen‐Derived Gas Oil Upgrading Using a Commercial NiMo/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> Catalyst
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Hydrotreating (HT) kinetics of Athabasca bitumen‐derived gas oil has been studied between 340 to 420°C using a commercial NiMo/γ‐Al 2 O 3 catalyst. The kinetics analyses included overall conversion of high‐boiling species into low‐boiling products, hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) of total, basic and non‐basic nitrogen compounds and hydrodesulfurization (HDS). Three temperature regimes were marked out for the kinetic analyses: low (340‐370°C), intermediate (370‐400°C) and high (400‐420°C). The mechanism for the conversion of high to low‐boiling species was observed to change from one temperature regime to the other, giving rise to different activation energies. HDS and HDN activation energies increased in the order: high < low < intermediate severity temperature regime.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
