Water Chloride Balance in Naphtha Reforming Units
Catalytic reforming catalysts are bifunctional, with the metal and acid sites assumed to be in some “balance” that enables total and effective utilization of the metal and acid sites. Metal-acid
Key Operating Variables of Naptha Reforming Unit
The major process variables that affect the performance of the catalytic naphtha reforming or platforming unit are reactor pressure, reactor temperature, space velocity, hydrogen to hydrocarbon (H2/HC) molar ratio, feedstock
Responsibilities of a Good HAZOP Team Leader
A HAZOP team facilitator is a key person in conducting a successful and effective hazard and operability (HAZOP) study. A HAZOP team facilitator is responsible for leading and managing the
Guidelines for Nodes Selection in HAZOP Study
A node is a discrete part of the process or system that has a defined function with definite boundaries and is selected for analysis in the HAZOP study. Generally, they
HAZOP Study Procedure
HAZOP Study (Hazard and Operability Study) is a structured and systematic technique for identifying potential hazards and operability problems in a process system. It is widely used in industries like
Hazop Study Terminologies
A HAZOP study is a simple and well-structured methodology for hazard identification in process plants. It is an investigation technique that is designed to inspire imaginative thinking (or brainstorming) by
Stages of Hazard Study of Process Plants
For a new project, the greatest benefit is obtained by carrying out several studies throughout the design process. One such sequence is the Hazard Study (HS) methodology developed by ICI
Slurry Phase Hydrocracking Process
A slurry phase reactor (SPR) is used in petroleum refineries for the hydroprocessing of feeds with very high metal content to obtain lower-boiling products. This technology adopts severe operating conditions
History of Hydroprocessing
Hydrotreating and Hydrocracking are among the oldest catalytic processes used in petroleum refining. They were originally employed by I.G Farben in Germany in 1927 for converting lignite to gasoline and
