"Refining. Processes. 4.1. INTRODUCTION. In the crude state, petroleum has
minimal value, but when refined, it provides high-value liquid fuels, solvents,
lubricants, and many other products (Speight and Ozum, 2002; Parkash, 2003;
Hsu and Robinson, 2006; Gary et al., 2007; Speight, 2011a,b, 2014). The fuels
derived from petroleum contribute approximately one-third to one-half of the total
world energy supply and are used not only fo ..."

"Wax precipitates from crude oil when the operating temperature is at or below the
WAT (cloud point temperature) and wax deposition will not occur until the
operating temperature falls to or below the WAT (Erickson et al., 1993). All other
factors actually lead to wax deposition when the temperature is already at or
below the cloud point. 7.3.3.3 Pressure Pressure, as an important parameter in
the exploitation of reservoir fluids, p ..."
"The process uses a combination of cold water and solvent, and the first step
usually involves disintegration of the oil sand charge that is mixed with water,
diluent, and reagents. The diluent may be a petroleum distillate fraction such as ..."
"Catalytic cracking is a conversion process that can be applied to a variety of
feedstocks from gas oil to heavy oil and residues (Speight and Ozum, 2002; Hsu
and Robinson, 2006; Gary et al., 2007; Speight, 2007). The concept of catalytic
cracking is basically the same as thermal cracking, but it differs by the use of a
catalyst that is not, in theory, consumed in the process. It is one of several
applications used in a refinery tha ..."
