Course Description

Introduction

The principles and basic understanding of Hydrotreating and Hydrocracking processes—where Hydrogen is a crucial component in the upgrading and treatment of refinery products and fractions—are covered in this extensive course on Hydrotreating & Hydrocracking Process Technology. Potentially significant advancements in process design, energy, and mass integration will be reviewed and the state of the art in these areas will be reviewed. 

Every topic covered in the training course includes a thorough, hands-on overview of hydrotreating and cracking technology. In addition to saturated products with increased cetane numbers and free of sulfur, nitrogen, and metals, the contents concentrate on the hydro-conversion of heavy products, distillates, diesel, and naphtha into other hydrogenated/lower molecular weight products. Along with discussing potential changes, this training course covers some process design, chemistry, and engineering topics.

This training course on Hydrotreating and Hydrocracking Process Technology is beneficial for engineers, scientists, designers, and researchers working in the refinery hydro-conversion business. However, experts with prior expertise in other industries who are eager to learn about hydro-conversion processes stand to gain the most from it. 

This training session on Course N Carry Hydrotreating & Hydrocracking Process Technology will include: 

  • Talks, activities, and group projects on a few areas of process design and enhancement 
  • Valid research showing solutions for improving the environment and energy 
  • Transfer of knowledge from the instructor's in-depth, active industrial consultations 
  • Using Excel-based design tools to integrate mass and energy in refining facilities 
  • Real-world issues and data for design and improvement are openly discussed.
