The crude oil feedstock is separated into valuable petroleum products in the Crude Distillation Unit (CDU). The crude oil distillation column is the key processing equipment that must be operated under
The crude oil desalting process extracts salts from a crude oil hydrocarbon stream by mixing the stream with a small amount of freshwater forming a water-in-oil emulsion. The resulting emulsion
The crude distillation unit (CDU) is the first processing unit in an oil refinery. In CDU main equipment is the crude oil fractional distillation column that separates the crude oil
Catalytic reforming is the chemical process in oil refineries for converting the low-value heavy naphtha fraction of crude oil into high octane reformate, aromatics rich feed-stock and hydrogen. High octane
Catalytic cracking of heavy hydrocarbons in the presence of hydrogen is known as hydrocracking. The hydrocracking process converts heavy, high-boiling petroleum feedstock into lighter products (naphtha, kerosene, diesel, etc.) or
The vacuum distillation unit is designed to process the reduced crude from the atmospheric crude distillation tower bottom in the presence of a vacuum. The Vacuum Distillation Unit separates the
Oil refinery residue upgrading or bottom-of-the-barrel upgrading is the process of conversion of heavy petroleum fractions into high-valued lighter petroleum products. In an oil refinery, the term bottom of the
The Isomerization process in a petroleum refinery is the catalytic process that converts low octane number straight-chain hydrocarbon molecules (C4, C5, C6) into branched-chain hydrocarbons with the same carbon number
The crude distillation unit is the first processing unit in the oil refinery. The crude oil distillation process aims to separate the crude oil into various petroleum fractions according to
