Hydrogen
Convert the heaviest fraction of the barrel into valuable products
A proprietary slurry technology<sup>a</sup> represents an innovation in residue conversion and unconventional oil upgrading, and marks a step change in the treatment of the heavy end of the barrel.
Optimization: Filtration for processes inside refineries
Proper filtration is one of the most important functions performed inside refineries.
Heavy crude oil processing design and reliability
Revamping refineries to process heavier crude slates goes well beyond the requirements to meet equipment performance dictated by a shift in the quantity of lighter product yields to heavier products.
Optimize a refinery H2 network using spreadsheet tools
One of the major goals in every refining complex is to minimize the utilization of its hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>) generation units by maximizing the H<sub>2</sub> recovery from residual streams.
Guangxi Petrochemical revamps hydrogen unit with Honeywell UOP technology
DES PLAINES, Ill. — Honeywell announced that CNPC Guangxi Petrochemical Company has successfully converted its existing pressure swing adsorption (PSA) unit to Honeywell UOP Polybed PSA technology, enabling it to produce high-purity hydrogen.
Improve H2O measurement in catalytic reformer H2 recycle streams
Catalytic reformer units convert naphtha into high-octane aromatic compounds called reformates, which are used in gasoline blending and formulation. UOP developed the catalytic reforming process and brought the first unit into operation in 1949.
