Steam Reforming Process for Hydrogen Production
Steam reforming is a method for producing hydrogen gas by the reaction of hydrocarbon in the presence of steam and catalyst. Natural gas, refinery gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and
Hydrofluoric Acid Alkylation Process
The acid alkylation process that converts low molecular weight streams into alkylate, high octane, and gasoline blending components in the presence of strong Hydroflouric Acid is called a Hydrofluoric Acid
Properties of Kerosene
Kerosene, also called paraffin or paraffin oil, is a flammable pale-yellow or colourless petroleum product with a characteristic odour, intermediate in volatility between gasoline and diesel oil. It is produced
Sulfur Recovery Unit in Petroleum Oil Refinery
The Sulfur Recovery Unit (SRU) in a Petroleum Refinery is designed to remove H2S from sour gases originating in the various refinery processes and convert them to industrial-grade molten sulfur.
Alkylation Process In Petroleum Refinery
Alkylation is a chemical process in a petroleum oil refinery in which a high-quality gasoline component (alkylate) is produced by the reaction of low-value light hydrocarbons of the LPG range
Types and Configurations of Petroleum Oil Refineries
An oil refinery or petroleum refinery is an industrial plant that transforms crude oil into useful petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, kerosene, liquefied petroleum gas, jet
Working and Importance of Windsocks
A windsock is a narrow, conical, or tapered cloth tube, open at both ends and looks like a giant sock. Its larger end is a fixed ring pivoted to swing
Bitumen Production Processes in Petroleum Refinery
Bitumen or Asphalt is a black viscous mixture of hydrocarbons obtained naturally or as a residue from petroleum distillation of crude oil. Petroleum Bitumen or Asphalt is a sticky, semi-solid, viscous petroleum,
Reducing Steam Consumption in Process Industries
