Petroleum refining has seen a significant shift in recent years, with companies continuing to expand and revamp existing refineries rather than building new ones. This has led to a renaissance in chemical and process engineering across various industries. The fifth and final volume in the "Petroleum Refining Design and Applications Handbook" series, this book provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of the latest changes in petroleum refining.
In addition to the topics covered in the previous volumes, this groundbreaking new volume delves into various aspects of product blending within refineries, including the use of ternary diagrams and classifications of crude oils. It also covers flash point blending, pour point blending, aniline point blending, smoke point and viscosity blending, cetane and diesel indices. The volume further examines refinery operational costs, cost allocation of actual usage, project and economic evaluation involving cost estimation, cash flow analysis, return on investment, net present values, discounted cash flow rate of return, payback period, inflation and sensitivity analysis, and more.
The book also takes a global perspective, exploring the effects of refining on the economy, carbon tax, carbon footprint, global warming potential, carbon dioxide equivalent, carbon credit, carbon offset, and carbon price. It examines sustainability in petroleum refining and alternative fuels, including biofuels, and the impact of greenhouse gas emissions. It discusses process intensification in biodiesel production, biofuel from green diesel, acid-gas removal, and emerging technologies such as carbon capture and storage.
Overall, this comprehensive handbook is an invaluable resource for engineers, scientists, and students interested in the latest developments in petroleum refining and chemical engineering. It provides a detailed understanding of the industry's challenges and opportunities, enabling professionals to stay ahead of the curve and make informed decisions.
