What are the latest advancements in HPI technologies? This month’s Innovations section details the tools and technologies that are optimizing plant operations.
Oil refinery/petrochemical integration in a CO2-constrained world—Part 2
Petrochemical demand will increase with gross domestic product, while the demand for motor fuels will only show modest growth and may even decline in certain regions, given environmental/legislative pressures and the introduction of battery-powered electric vehicles.

Industry Metrics
U.S. Gulf Coast margins increased, supported by unplanned refinery outages that limited a stronger recovery in run rates and kept product outputs relatively supressed.
Advances in light ends processing units using DWCs
For those who have been in the refining industry for many years, it is obvious that significant changes are occurring.
Optimize product blending using Excel spreadsheets and LINGO software—Part 1
Linear programming (LP) is an optimization modelling technique in which a linear function is maximized or minimized when subjected to various constraints.
