  • How many oil refineries are in Egypt?
  • In Egypt, nine out of ten oil refineries are run by the state. This setup meant that investments in oil refineries never measured up to crude oil extraction investments, which had always relied on international firms such as Apache and BP.
  • What is an oil refinery?
  • An oil refinery or petroleum refinery is an industrial plant that transforms crude oil into useful petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, kerosene, liquefied petroleum gas, jet fuel, asphalt base, heating oil, and fuel oils.
  • Do refinery plants generate waste?
  • The refinery plants generate a lot of waste which must be treated to meet the requirement of environmental agencies. In this chapter, the methods and technologies employed in the refinery of crude oil into its various product fractions as well as the types of waste generated at crude oil refineries and their methods of treatment are discussed.
  • What is the objective function of refinery integrated optimization?
  • Objective function for refinery integrated optimization The net profit of the refinery on the production horizon is the total value of oil products minus the cost of crude oils, processing production of units, inventory of all materials, changeover cost of crude oil in CDUs, energy consumption, and crude oil operation.
  • Are the names and locations of the refineries fictitious?
  • D.S.J. Jones Note: The names and location of the company and its refineries are, of course, fictitious. The study though is not. The author actually participated in the study itself and was later the lead engineer in the process design of one of the selected refinery (Case 6A) debottlenecking expansions.
  • What types of products are produced in a refinery?
  • The refinery process produced three groups of products: light fraction (e.g. gas such as liquid petroleum gas¡ªLPG, gasoline, aviation fuel, etc.); middle distillates or medium fraction (e.g. kerosene, lubrication oil, light gas oil, diesel oil, etc.); and heavy fraction or bottom residue (e.g. asphalt and bitumen, waxes, etc.).
