Editorial Comment: IRPC Process: A sincere thanks to all
Last month, <i>Hydrocarbon Processing</i> hosted the International Refining and Petrochemical Conference (IRPC).
Why EPC firms are accelerating digitalization
Even before the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic emerged, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firms were already under considerable stress.
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.
A critical analysis of CO2 capture technologies
The use of fossil fuels as a source of energy continues to add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, causing detrimental effects to the environment.
Ethylbenzene plant debottleneck with a high-activity transalkylation catalyst
Modern commercial ethylbenzene (EB) plants use liquid-phase alkylation processes with zeolite catalysts to achieve high product yields.
Achieve zero execution errors through procedure clarity
It is well-documented that many unplanned manufacturing events could have been prevented if procedures were executed properly.
Key instrumentation technologies to tackle the toughest measurement challenges
Just as some people seek out extreme sports, process manufacturing has its extreme applications, and engineers who design for these environments must find ways to safely contain and monitor all manner of dangerous reactions and products.
Digital: Safety, simplicity and productivity provide the value needed in plant operations
In today’s manufacturing environment, process automation professionals must choose from a multitude of widgets and innovations to help their plants run more smoothly.
Editorial Comment: Optimization: Advancing the industry’s evolution and benefits to the masses
Optimization—the action of making the best or most effective use of a situation or resource—is not a term that the hydrocarbon processing industry (HPI) takes lightly: it is a way of life.
