Hydrotreating Modeling–Helping Refiners T o Face Challenges of the Future

摘要

In order to help heavy oil upgraders and petroleumrnrefineries optimize hydrotreater performance, a predictivernhydrotreating process model is being developed to eventuallyrnpredict the quality of the hydrotreated products under certainrnoperating conditions. To establish this model, a number ofrnimportant issues have been addressed and this paperrnsummarizes the research results pertaining to these issues.
