Plan for success with your clean fuels program
Producing low-sulfur transportation fuels involves more than selecting process options. Here are other vital key issues to consider
Consider integrating refining and petrochemical operations
Converting low-value gas oil streams via hydrocracking yields high-value olefins feedstocks
Noncapital intensive technologies reduce FCC sulfur content – Part 2
Using novel membrane technology, refiners have new solutions to treat gasoline for sulfur and olefins content
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
