Oil Refining : Platforming Process

INTRODUCTION

Motor gasoline (Mogas) production starts with the distillation of crude oil. One of the products out of that process is a fraction of low octane gasoline, normally referred to as naphtha, typically boiling in the range 100 - 160 0C. Other gasoline fractions are produced as a result of secondary processes like catalytic cracking, isomerisation, alkylation and platforming. Petrol is

Database & System Improvement

INTRODUCTION

Database adalah kumpulan dari item data yang saling berhubungan satu dengan yang lainnya yang diorganisasikan berdasarkan sebuah skema atau struktur tertentu, tersimpan di hardware komputer dan dengan software untuk melakukan manipulasi untuk kegunaan tertentu baik untuk waktu sekarang maupun untuk waktu yang akan datang.

Dalam perkembangannya database telah mengalami beberapa

Comparing DIPA vs MDEA

PERBANDINGAN DIPA dan MDEA DARI ASPEK TEKNIS

Untuk membandingkan efektifitas DIPA dengan MDEA dalam melaksanakan fungsinya sebagai solvent pelarut acid gas terdapat beberapa variabel pembanding penting yang dapat dijadikan bahan pertimbangan yaitu sbb:

a. Potensi Degradasi. DIPA diklasifikasikan sebagai secondary alkanoamine yang dengan mudah dapat bereaksi dengan CO2 menghasilkan senyawa

Amine Solution : MEA , DEA , DGA , MDEA , TEA , DIPA

INTRODUCTION

Pemilihan jenis absorbent (amine solution) dalam hal ini amine tergantung dari tujuan proses dan karakteristik dari tipe absorbent, antara lain selektivity untuk H2S, CO2, COS, pengendalian kandungan air di umpan gas, pengontrolan kandungan air di sirkulasi absorbent, cost, suplai absorbent, thermal stability, dll. Pemilihan absorbent juga ditentukan oleh kondisi operasi seperti

Oil Refining : Hydrotreating Process

INTRODUCTION

The objective of the Hydrotreating prococess is to remove suplur as well as other unwanted compunds, e.g. unsaturated hydrocarbons, nitrogen from refinery process streams. Until the end of World War 2, there was little incentive for the oil industry to pay significant attention to improving product quality by hydrogen treatment. However, soon after the war the production of high

History of Refinery Process

INTRODUCTION

Petroleum refining has evolved continuously in response to changing consumer demand for better and different products. The original requirement was to produce kerosene as a cheaper and better source of light than whale oil. The development of the internal combustion engine led to the production of gasoline and diesel fuels. The evolution of the airplane created a need first for

Introduction to Petroleum Refinery Operations

INTRODUCTION.

A petroleum refinery is a manufacturing operation where crude petroleum, the raw material, is converted into usable finished products. In other words, it is the manufacturing phase of the oil industry. This chapter presents a general introduction to overall refinery operations as a forerunner to the detailed information on specific processes and products which follows, and the

CO2 Removal : DEA , ACT-1, MDEA & Piperazine

CO2 Removal : DEA , ACT-1, MDEA & Piperazine


Carbon Dioxide (CO2) gas must be removed and recovered from ammonia process gas to make it fit for the synthesis reaction and later used for urea production. The removal of CO2 gas in ammonia plant is considered as a key stage in ammonia production. Organic amines (Primary, Secondary & Tertiary) have the ability to perform alone, or in combination
