Refinery Overview
• Crude oil is a complex mixture of various lengths and shapes of carbon and hydrogen molecules, with different chemical properties. In addition, crude oil contains significant levels of heteroatoms such as S, N which must be removed before burning fuels.
• A typical US refinery processes 100,000 – 250,000 barrels
(~ 4 – 10 million gallons) of crude oil per day.
• Processing unit operations vary by refinery and depend on crude oil used
as input as well as desired product slate.
21
Crude Oil
• Crude oil varies in both density and sulfur content depending on its origin around the world.
• This results in differences in cost for purchasing the oil and required technology to refine it into products.

Chemical Conversion: Adding Value
• Cracking – Converts heavy gas oils and residual to higher value gasoline and
diesel components – Cracking can be thermal (Coker) or catalytic (Fluidized Catalytic
Cracker)
• Alkylation ─ Converts shorter-chain molecules to longer-chain molecules ─ Typically C3/C4 molecules upgraded to gasoline components
• Upgrading ─ Improvement of low-octane fuels to high-octane fuels (Reformer) ─ Dehydrogenation reactions, converting linear hydrocarbons to
branched and cyclic hydrocarbons
23
24
Boiling Point Separation
• Smaller hydrocarbons are gaseous with low boiling points
• Longer chains are liquids, then waxes and finally solids

Evolution of “Go”
Cars have been tied to gasoline for most of their history, but fuel tech keeps evolving…
Vehicles have changed a lot. Their fuel? Not so much
Now more than ever, we need to look at alternative solutions and technologies to make us “GO”
