Oil refinery or Petroleum refinery is an industrial process plant where crude oil is transformed and refined into more useful products such  as naphtha, gasoline, diesel fuel, asphalt base, heating oil, kerosene, LPG, jet fuel and fuel oil. This course will let you go through the crude properties and its characterisation. Second half part of the course will discuss the different refinery processes. Although there is a lot to study about this particular field, but we will cover topics according to our GATE syllabus and you will surely get some insight about this vast field.

Test Preparation

Basic idea behind learning chemical technology subject has been discussed with petroleum refinery in particular.

Course Outline

Properties of crude oil is discussed with the components present at molecular level such as paraffins, olefins, naphthenes and aromarics.

Overview of Refinery Processes

Overall process flow diagram of refinery operations has been discussed.

Refinery Processes

Characterisation of the feed and products from a refinery is very essential to check the quality that can be supplied in the market.

Refinery Feed and Product Characterisation-Part 1

Sulphur contents, nitrogen content, carbon residue, metal content of crude have been discussed.

Refinery Feed and Product Characterisation-Part 2

Octane and cetane rating are very important to be used for gasoline and diesel fuel.

Octane Number and Cetane Number

Flash point, fire point, cloud point & pour point have been discussed thoroughly.

Flash and Fire Point & Cloud and Pour Point

Crude pretreatment is the most important step of all to improve the crude quality and reduce the impurities.

Crude Oil Pretreatment (Desalting)

The lesson discusses the most important unit of a petroleum refinery and the atmospheric & the vacuum distillation unit have been shown.

Crude Distillation Unit: ADU & CDU

Cracking is a simple process at which hydrocarbons are decomposed at elevated temperatures to form materials of lower molecular weight. Thermal cracking is discussed in this lesson.

Thermal Cracking

Coil or conventional visbreaking and soaker visbreaking have been discussed.

Soaker and Coil Visbreaking

Coking operation has been discussed with it's importance and different types in which it is carried out.

Coking

Brief idea of catalytic cracking and fluidized catalytic cracking in particular is done.

Fluidized Catalytic Cracking: Part 1

Fluidized Catalytic cracking process has been discussed thoroughly.

Fluidized Catalytic Cracking: Part 2

Catalytic reforming can convert low octane rating naphtha into high octane reformate.

Catalytic Reforming

Hydroconversions are very important aspect of a refinery. Of these, hydrotreating has been discussed herewith.

Hydrotreating

Hydrocracking has been used as an essential unit in a Petroleum Refinery for removing Sulphur compounds.

Hydrocracking

Isomerization is an excellent option for increasing the octane rating.

Isomerization Process

Olefins are reacted with isomers for the production of alkylates which are a bit more complex and hence have higher octane rating.

HF Alkylation Process

Steam reforming has been an integral part of all refineries for manufacturing of hydrogen which can be further used for so many hydroprocessings.

Steam Reforming of Methane

Polymerisation process can manufacture more of the olefins rich products that can increase the octane rating further more.

Polymerisation Process

Basically holds latest trends in petroleum. It includes topics like coal bed methane, shale gas, oil shale, gas hydrates and heave crude oil and classifications of rocks.

Petroleum Engineering for GATE

This is the part 2 of chemical technology course which includes Petrochemical Industry. The petrochemical industry is concerned with the production and trade of petrochemicals. It directly interfaces with the petroleum industry, especially the downstream sector. So many petrochemicals will be discussed in this course pertaining to the GATE syllabus. So let's enjoy this part 2.

Chemical Technology Part 2: Petrochemical Industry

This course discusses the chemistry and composition of crude oil and the selection of its refining processes. The characteristics, constituents and classification of crude oil is also given. Crude oil distillation is the first unit in the refinery and carried out in two stages- atmospheric and vacuum. All such refining units have been discussed here. This course is very important for all Chemical Engineers and for those who want to get a place in an oil and gas company.
