What are petroleum refining processes?

Petroleum refining processes are the chemical engineering processes and other facilities used in petroleum refineries (also referred to as oil refineries) to transform crude oil into useful products such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), gasoline or petrol, kerosene, jet fuel, diesel oil and fuel oils.

How to increase petrochemical yield of refinery operations?

We see three ways for players to increase the petrochemical yield of refinery operations: change individual process units, change the mix of process units, or build more direct crude-to-chemicals plants. The individual process unit that receives the most attention is the fluid catalytic cracker (FCC), the longtime workhorse of refining.

What is visbreaking & how does it affect refinery profitability?

Visbreaking achieves some conversion, but its primary purpose is to reduce the viscosity of heating oils and fuel oils, making them suitable for furnaces and improving their flow in tubes and pipes. As much as anything else, VR conversion determines refinery profitability. Options are shown in Fig. 8.12.

What are oil refinery process units?

Oil refinery process units: upgrading processes for top-of-the-barrel cuts¡ªVGO and lighter¡ªwhich boiling below about 1050 ¡ãF (556 ¡ãC). Please refer to the key for stream descriptions. Almost all units produce some kind of offgas; offgas processing is described above.
