Oil and Gas Refining
Oil refining generally refers to the oil refining, originally by distillation of oil to separate the use of internal combustion engines in kerosene, gasoline, diesel and other fuel oil, by-product LPG and residual oil; heavier components than fuel oil, and through heating, catalytic cracking and other processes chemical conversion into fuel oil, some of these fuel oil to use hydrogenation and other processes for refining. The heavy vacuum residua are deasphalted to produce deasphalted oil and petroleum asphalt by solvent deasphalting process, or the heavy oil is cracked to fuel oil by delayed coking process, and petroleum coke is by-product. Through solvent refining, Solvent Dewaxing and supplementary hydrogenation, the Lube Oil Refinery produces all kinds of special industrial oils, such as engine oil, mechanical oil, transformer oil, hydraulic oil and so on. In recent years, the hydrogenation process has been used more and more in the production of fuel oil and lubricating oil. In addition, hydrocracking process is also used in refineries that produce feedstock for petrochemical industry.
