Engineering & Design
Using an integrated approach conserves energy andhydrogen
Applying plant-wide pinch analysis for an existing facility often lowers CAPEX for expansions and retrofits
'MIX' concept links refining operations with power and construction industries
An integrated approach enables establishing base-industries complex for medium-sized plants at lower CAPEX
New methodology enhances planning for refined products
A unique analytical tool collectively applies value information from various end-product and intermediate streams and identifies the best profit-making operation
HP Impact: Protect processing catalysts from feedstock contaminants
Effective feedstock filtration can extend service life for catalytic systems and optimize reactor performance
Glycol dehydration
Proper adjustments will reduce initial investments and operating costs
