Optimization of basic catalyst with ammoniated polyethylene glycol for the removal of naphthenic acid from petroleum crude oil by Box-Behnken design

Naphthenic acid (NA) removal from petroleum crude oil was investigated and optimized through the utilization of a formulated basic chemical and a basic catalyst. The response surface method (RSM) by Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed for this purpose. Ammoniated polyethylene glycol (NH3-PEG) and...
