Oil Refinery Units and Their Roles in Crude Oil Processing

Oil refinery units are a collection of specialized and interconnected sections, each of which plays a specific role in converting crude oil into valuable products. Using units such as atmospheric distillation, vacuum distillation, cracking, hydrotreating, reforming, isomerization, and sulfur recovery, an oil refinery converts crude oil into products such as gasoline, diesel, kerosene, jet fuel,…

Review of the Cracking Process in Oil Refining

With the growing global demand for gasoline, diesel, and other light petroleum products, oil refineries must maximize the value obtained from every barrel of crude oil. Since a significant portion of crude oil consists of heavy hydrocarbons, a process known as cracking was developed to convert these heavy molecules into lighter, more valuable products. Today,…
