Hydrogen
Pressure swing adsorption vessels fatigue analysis
The hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>) plant in a refinery produces high-purity (99.9+ vol%) H<sub>2</sub> products using a licensed pressure swing adsorption (PSA) purification process to fulfill the H<sub>2</sub> makeup needs of refinery hydroprocessing facilities.
Evaluate options for decarbonizing petroleum refineries
The energy transition requires rebuilding the energy supply infrastructure for a lower-carbon economy and renewable energy generation for industry and transportation that run more on electricity and hydrogen and less on fossil fuels and provide a circular path for consumer plastics. The growth in global oil demand is predicted to end within 10 yr, but it is still too early to foresee a rapid decline in that demand.
