Fractionation technology for the petroleum refining industry

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2007
AbstractDistillation Research and Development is moving rapidly with the utilization of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modeling. Previously, a potential fractionation application would first be developed and fabricated. Then many hours of pilot plant testing would be required to finalize the design.

Petroleum refining industry in China

Energy Policy, 2010
The oil refining industry in China has faced rapid growth in oil imports of increasingly sour grades of crude with which to satisfy growing domestic demand for a slate of lighter and cleaner finished products sold at subsidized prices. At the same time, the world petroleum refining industry has been moving from one that serves primarily local and ...

Benzene Exposure in the Petroleum Refining Industry

Applied Industrial Hygiene, 1987
Abstract Benzene exposure data, submitted by nine petroleum refining companies, were studied with the general objective of characterizing the distribution of exposures within work operations and job categories. The data were collected by company hygienists over the period of years between 1978 and 1984.

Survival in the U.S. petroleum refining industry

Journal of Applied Statistics, 2012
Of the 324 petroleum refineries operating in the U.S. in 1982, only 149 were still in the hands of their original owners in 2007. Using duration analysis, this paper explores why refineries change ownership or shut down. Plants are more likely to ‘survive’ with their original owners if they are older or larger, but less likely if the owner is a major ...

Petroleum Refining and Selected Chemical Industries

1957
Several important chemical industries, including petroleum refining, the synthetic rubber industry, the coke chemical industry, and the synthetic ammonia industry, are featured in common by largely unhoused plants and unenclosed units, by tall structures, and by great use of water and other liquids in their operations.

Will Biochemical Catalysis Impact the Petroleum Refining Industry?

Energy & Fuels, 2002
The potential application of biochemical catalysis in the petroleum refining industry is discussed by a prospective analysis of the available data on the microbial and enzymatic modification of oil products. The proposed biotechnological processes can be considered either alternative or complementary to conventional oil refining technologies ...
