Inherently safer design
Implementation challenges faced by new and existing facilities
Refinery hydrogen management – the big picture
Hydrogen network operating decisions affect the bottom line every day, but most refineries do not apply the tools that could dramatically increase profitability
Protect desulfurization catalyst with prefiltration systems
Suspended solids in refinery feeds foul critical desulfurization catalysts and heat exchange equipment and rob refiners of potential profits
The ultimate 'clean' fuel – Gas-to-liquid products
New reforming technology enables converting stranded natural gas into low-sulfur syngas
Consider onsite gas supply to meet processing needs
By outsourcing industrial gas sources, refiners can focus resources – capital and manpower – on upgrading crude oil into higher-value products
Noncapital intensive technologies reduce FCC sulfur content – Part 1
Innovative solutions such as catalysts and membranes can be used to navigate the 'roadmap' for clean fuels agenda
Consider a risk-based inspection program to improve safety and availability
Within the framework of a process safety management program, this method helps to minimize maintenance costs and reduce plant risk level
