Solvent Deasphalting is an extraction process used in petroleum refining to remove the asphaltenes from the refinery residues to prepare a suitable feedstock for catalytic conversion unit and lube base
A Visbreaking (means viscosity breaking) unit is a processing unit in a petroleum refinery that reduces the viscosity of a refinery residue and produces more valuable petroleum products. The Visbreaking
The term Merox is an abbriviation of ” Mercaptan Oxidation”. It is a specialized catalytic chemical process created by UOP (Universal Oil Products) applied for the chemical treatment of petroleum distillates to
The process of transferring a substance from one solvent to another due to differences in solubility or distribution coefficient between the two immiscible (or slightly soluble) solvents is known as
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
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
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 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
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
