Sulfur oxide additives are typically based on hydrotalcite or magnesium aluminate spinel-type structures. Magnesium alumina is the pickup agent present in the most effective SOx additives on the market; therefore, to optimize SOx reduction, it is critical to maximize the amount of the critical magnesium component in the fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCU) in an efficient and cost-effective way.
Refining is the process of separating crude oil into different hydrocarbon groups through distillation.
From September 25–26, Hydrocarbon Processing will bring its International Refining and Petrochemical Conference (IRPC) back to the US.
As the world’s population increases and living standards continue to improve, the demand for energy and chemicals is stronger than ever before.
Hydrocarbon Processing, the downstream processing sector’s leading technical publication, has announced the finalists for its second annual awards.
Hydrocarbon Processing’s Construction Boxscore Database is tracking more than 1,600 projects around the world, representing more than $1.8 T in capital expenditures.
