As refiners consider renewable, low-carbon alternatives, renewable diesel—refined from agricultural products using petroleum refinery processes—is gaining traction.
Over the past five years, the industrial evolution has been propelled by the same technologies that have dramatically changed our private lives.
The hydrocarbon processing industry (HPI) is steadily advancing through the energy transition.
For nearly a decade, capital investments in new petrochemical capacity have skyrocketed. This
Where process fluid must be maintained within a certain operating temperature window, the piping will likely require the application of a thermal maintenance system.
Centrifugal compressors are designed with different suction nozzle orientations and impeller layouts in casing.
A critical objective of engineers who design an automatic protection system is to lower the false trip rate and to lower a key metric called average probability of failure on demand (PFDavg).
Sour water stripping is a common process in petroleum refineries and other processes where hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is present.
Pyrolysis gasoline (pygas) is a by-produced fraction of hydrocarbons generated from a steam cracker.
