G. The refinery of the future / James G. Speight 1st ed. London : Gulf Professional Publishing, 2011 ix, 395 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. Includes bibliographical references and index Feedstocks -- Refining processes -- Refining chemistry -- Distillation -- Thermal cracking -- Catalytic cracking -- Deasphalting and dewaxing processes -- Hydrotreating and desulfurization -- Hydrocracking -- Refinery of the future -- Glossary -- Index As feedstocks to refineries change, there must be an accompanying change in refinery technology. This means a movement from conventional means of refining heavy feedstocks using (typically) coking technologies to more innovative processes that will coax the last drips of liquid fuels from the feedstock. This book presents the evolution of refinery processes during the last century and as well as the means by which refinery processes will evolve during the next three-to-five decades. Chapters contain material relevant to (1) comparisons of current feedstocks with heavy oil and bio-feedstocks; (2) evolution of refineries since the 1950s, (3) properties and refinability of heavy oil and bio-feedstocks, (4) thermal processes vs. hydroprocesses, and (5) evolution of products to match the environmental market. Process innovations that have influenced refinery processing over the past three decades are presented, as well as the relevant patents that have the potential for incorporation into future refineries.-- back cover Petroleum refineries Petroleum refineries Technological innovations Feedstock Renewable energy sources Biodiesel fuels 0 0 0 0 10000 10000 2019-09-04 485.78 0 TP690 .S64 2011 0000060616 2019-09-04 00:00:00 1 485.78 2019-09-04 OPEN VIRTUA40 57886 57892 VTLSSORT0080*0200*0201*0400*0900*1000*2450*2500*2600*3000*5040*5050*5200*6500*6501*6502*6503*6504*9991
