Sulfur Recovery Unit

Image
  C laus   Sulfur Recovery  Unit (SRU): SRU is widely used to recover sulfur-containing, poisonous acidic gas in the oil refinery engineering  process. The most commonly used process in sulfur recovery practice is the Claus U nit   Process, which is to burn the incoming gas with oxygen, refrigerate the burnt gas, and recovers sulfur from the burnt gas. SRU Sulfur Recovery Unit converts sulfur gas such as H2S into elemental sulfur, so as to convert waste into treasure and protect the environment.   Application of SRU: 1. Separate sulfur from sulfur-containing oil   2. Recover the wasted material efficiently   3. This unit can reach rather high sulfur purity   Advantages of SRU: 1. SRU reduces the pollution of refineries greatly, and it's environmentally friendly.   2. SRU turns H2S into useful material, reduces power consumption, and can bring huge economic benefits.   3.  Harmless processing of H2S which was produced during the...

Semi-regenerative Reforming

  Semi-regenerative Reforming (SRR): With the help of heating, hydrotreating and catalyst, semi-regenerative reforming is a process which is used to convert petroleum refinery naphtha distilled from reforming crude oil  (typically having low octane ratings) into high-octane liquid products called reformates, which are premium blending stocks for high-octane gasoline. Compared with other regenerative reforming types, semi-regenerative reforming has advantages includes low investment, low operating fee…etc. Semi regenerative petroleum reforming    can also be applied in various production scales.   Application of SRR: 1. Widely used in petrochemical industry.   2. In the hydrogenation, heating, high pressure conditions for light gasoline fractions or naphtha can be processed to be re-gasoline.   3. High-octane petrol is produced by using SRR.   4. Large amount of aromatics will also be produced.   Advantages of SRR: 1. PCC's SRR can save cataly...

Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit

  Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit  (FCC): FCC is one of the most important conversions processes used in oil refinery engineering  process. The purpose of FCC unit is to transfer heavy crude oil into light oil. Under the action of heat and oil refinery catalyst , upgrades the heavier, higher-boiling fractions from the crude oil distillation by converting them into lighter and lower boiling, more valuable products like cracking gas, gasoline and diesel oil etc.   Application of FCC: 1. Many products including ethylene, petrol, diesel, Heavy diesel, slurry oil… etc. could be obtained by using FCC refinery unit.   2. PCC's FCC refinery unit has a high catalytic efficiency.   3. One of the main methods of secondary processing of oil, in the role of high temperature and catalyst to make heavy oil cracking reaction, into crack gas, gasoline, and diesel.   Advantages of FCC: 1. The process of blowing air can make the catalyst regeneration, recycling.   2. ...
