Books By Edward (IMAF Group, Canada) Furimsky - Author

Edward Furimsky obtained his PhD degree in 1971 at university of Ottawa under the direction of Prof. K.J. Laidler. After two years stay at NRC in Ottawa as a postdoctoral fellow, he joined the research group of Prof. C.H. Amberg at Carleton University in Ottawa to conduct research in heterogeneous catalysis. This included the projects on development of catalysts for hydroprocessing of feeds derived from petroleum, oil shale, coal and biomass. He is the author and/or co-author of some 130 articles published in peer reviewed scientific journals including several authoritative reviews, e.g., Catalyst Deactivation and Regeneration, Hydrogen Activation, Hydrodenitrogenation of Petroleum, Hydrodeoxygenation and others. His book on Catalyst for Upgrading Heavy Petroleum Feeds provides detailed accounts of problems in designing and selecting suitable catalysts for upgrading problematic petroleum feeds. Recently, the 2nd edition of the Handbook of Spent Hydroprocessing Catalysts was published. In addition, he has publ
