PE0902 : Refinery Process Yields Optimization

Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops.

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of refinery process yields and optimization. It covers the crude oil origin, crude oil dehydration, desalting and stabilization; the petroleum refinery processes; the coking and thermal process that include delayed coking, operating variables, process yields, coke characteristics, gas composition, sulfur and nitrogen distribution and visbreaking process; the motor fuel production processes; and the UOP fluid catalytic cracking unit, reactor and generator system, catalyst, feedstock, process chemistry and fractionator system.

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the UOP hydrotreating for naphtha/gasoline production; the UOP hydrocracking/isocracking process for gasoline conversion; the catalytic reforming process, fixed bed factor, process reactions, dehydrogenation and isomerization; the alkylation process; the isomerization as well as supporting operations for blending; the gas processing lube oil blending feedstock and petrochemical feedstock; and the additives production from refinery feedstock covering alcohols, ethers, ether production reaction and ether production process.
