Present Status of Petroleum Refining Industry
石油精製工業は戦後消費地精製主義によつて急速に発展し西欧各国, 米国東海岸に大製油所が建設され, わが国では製油能力は消費量を凌駕している。新製油法としては流動接触分解法および接触改質法が目立ち, 高オクタン価ガンリンの生産に不可欠のものとなつている。プラットフォーミングなどで副生する水素は中東軽油のごとく硫黄分の高いものを水素処理するのに有利で西欧では既に実施されている。諸外国では重油の消費割合が少いので, FCC法, Vis breaking法, Delayed coking法, Fluid coking法などで重油の軽質化を行つている。肩本の場合では処理原油の大部分は直溜ガソリンのオクタン価の低い中東原油であるから, 將来オクタン価競爭などで, 80オクタン以上を標準にするとなれば ...
