"The main scope of the course is to create strong basis and fundamentals regarding the processes in the Petroleum Refining. We take a look to the Oil&Gas Industry briefly and continue directly with the Refining Process. We then make a focus in each individual unit operation in the  refinery. Learn about: -Oil& Gas Industry -Difference between Petroleum Refining vs. Petrochemical Industry -Overview of the most important operations and products -Market insight (supply/demand) as well as (production/consumption) -Several Petroleum Refineries around the WorldUnit Operations & Processes -Refining and Fractionation -Atmospheric Distillation Column -Vacuum Distillation -Hydrotreating (Hydrogenation) -Blending -Reforming -Isomerization -Alkylation -Steam Cracking -Fluid Catalytic Cracking -Gas Sweetening (Hydrodesulfurization) -CokingComponents: -Fuel Gas / Natural Gas -Liquified Petroleum Gases (LPG) -Propane, Butane -Sulfur / Hydrogen Sulfide -Gasoline / Automotive Gas Oil -Naphtha Cuts (Light/Heavy) -Kerosene -Diesel -Gasoil -Lubricants -Vacuum Residues -Asphalt -CokeNOTE: This course is focused for Process SimulationAt the end of the course you will feel confident in the Petroleum Refining Industry. You will know the most common Process & Unit Operations as well as their distribution, production and importance in daily life."
