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
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,
Amine systems are used to remove CO2/H2S acid gases from process gas streams in the refinery, petrochemical, and natural gas industries. Foaming is defined as the dispersion of gas bubbles
Amine gas treatment also known as Gas sweetening, Amine scrubbing, or acid gas treatment is the process that removes H2S/CO2 and mercaptan compounds from the acid gas streams by absorption
Alkanolamines or amines are chemicals used for the removal of sour gases (H2S/CO2) from the industrial gas streams. Amines used are basic in nature and react with acid gases to
Thermal cracking is the process in which heavy residue hydrocarbons are decomposed into lower molecule higher value hydrocarbon products, under severe thermal conditions in the absence of the catalyst. It
Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) is the conversion process used in a petroleum oil refinery to convert the low-value heavier long-chain hydrocarbon refinery fractions such as heavy vacuum gas oils into
Residual fuel oil is the third most important petroleum product after gasoline and diesel. Mostly, the furnace oils or bunker fuel oil are the by-products of refineries, which are blended
Commercial diesel fuel is a blend of many refinery streams. Blending components of diesel product may come from straight run diesel and kerosene from the crude distillation column, desulfurized diesel
