Critical considerations for retrofit designing a platformer reactor’s partial bypass piping in a NHT plant
The naphtha hydrotreater/continuous catalyst regeneration (NHT/CCR) platformer produces reformate to be utilized as a blending stock in the gasoline pool (FIG. 1).
Complete hydroconversion of crude oil to light hydrocarbons
One of the prevailing factors of the energy transition toward a low-carbon energy system is that the decarbonization of transport will lead to the contraction of the main markets in which crude oil refining products are sold.
Boil-off gas APC exceeds expectations
The use of advanced process control (APC) technology on LNG liquefaction trains is well accepted with some of the earliest implementations developed in the late 1990s.
Added benefits of control-valve environmental packing
Packing selection used to be a straightforward task that played a small part in a valve specification process that was much more involved.
