crude oil on differences in their boiling points. -
Light End Recovery
Separates gas components from naphtha, which is distilled in the atmospheric distillation process, to produce propane and butane.
-
LPG Merox process
Remove sulfur component from LPG produced from the Light End Recovery process to meet product specifications.
-
Naphtha splitter process
Separate light and heavy naphtha based on differences in boiling points.
-
Kerosene Merox process
Remove mercaptans, which cause a distinctive odor and have corrosion-causing components in kerosene distilled at the atmospheric distillation process, to meet jet fuel product specifications.
-
Kerosene & Gasoil Hydrotreating process
Improve quality by removing sulfur from kerosene and diesel distilled at the atmospheric distillation process.
