Our Hydrotreating Plant Technologies
Our Hydrotreating Plants are designed to provide high-quality solutions across multiple refining processes. These processes enhance product value, meet stringent environmental standards, and improve fuel performance. Below is a detailed overview of the core technologies:
Base oil Hydrotreating upgrading is a key process in producing high-quality lubricants. Our Hydrotreating Plants upgrade Group 1 base oil to Group 2 base oil, improving its performance and extending the service life of lubricants. This process removes impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen from base oils, increasing their oxidation stability and lubricity.
- Improves Lubrication: The upgraded base oil offers superior low-temperature fluidity and better viscosity index (VI), providing more effective lubrication for automotive, industrial, and high-performance applications.
- Enhances Stability: Increased oxidation stability reduces the breakdown of lubricants at high temperatures, improving the longevity of both the oil and the machinery it lubricates.
- Meets Industry Standards: Upgraded base oil meets the quality standards required for modern lubricants, ensuring high performance and extended oil change intervals.
Our Hydrotreating Plants utilize advanced Hydrodesulfurization (HDS) technology to remove sulfur from diesel and naphtha, ensuring compliance with strict environmental regulations such as Euro 5 standards.
- Efficient Sulfur Removal: The HDS process uses hydrogen and a catalyst to convert sulfur compounds in diesel and naphtha into hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), which is then separated. This results in ultra-low sulfur content, typically below 50 ppm, crucial for reducing harmful emissions.
- Compliance with Euro 5 Standards: The HDS technology enables the production of clean fuels that meet the Euro 5 emission standards, which are required for modern engines and vehicles. This helps reduce sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions and minimize air pollution.
- Enhanced Fuel Quality: By eliminating sulfur, HDS improves the combustion efficiency of diesel and naphtha, resulting in cleaner exhaust emissions and better engine performance. It also reduces the formation of particulate matter, prolonging engine life and reducing maintenance costs.
Isomerization is a catalytic process that converts straight-chain hydrocarbons into branched-chain isomers, significantly improving the octane rating of naphtha. This technology is essential for producing high-quality gasoline and valuable chemical feedstocks.
- Boosts Octane Rating: The process increases the octane number of naphtha, making it an excellent component for high-performance gasoline production.
- Improves Fuel Efficiency: By producing higher-octane fuel, isomerization helps prevent engine knocking and ensures smoother operation.
- Valuable Chemical Feedstocks: The isomerization process also produces valuable hydrocarbons that are used in various chemical applications, including the production of polymers and synthetic fuels.
Aromatization converts paraffins (straight-chain hydrocarbons) into aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, and xylene. This process increases the value of feedstocks by producing high-demand chemicals used in a wide range of industries.
- Produces High-Value Chemicals: Aromatic hydrocarbons are essential raw materials for the production of plastics, synthetic fibers, solvents, and other chemicals.
- Increases Energy Density: Aromatic hydrocarbons have higher energy density compared to paraffins, making them valuable as fuel additives or high-energy fuels.
- Supports Petrochemical Production: Aromatization provides essential feedstocks for the petrochemical industry, enabling the production of a wide array of chemical products.
