What equipment is used for refining

Refinery equipment is a key device used to convert crude oil or other oil raw materials into various petroleum products or oil products. The refining process is complex and diverse, therefore requiring a wide variety of equipment. Here are some common refining equipment and their uses:

Crude oil refining equipment

Crude oil refining equipment is mainly used to convert crude oil into various petroleum products, such as gasoline, diesel, lubricants, etc. These devices typically include the following parts:

• Distillation tower: used to heat and distill crude oil into fractions with different boiling points.
• Catalytic cracking unit: By the action of a catalyst, heavy oil is converted into light oil.
• Hydrocracking unit: Under high temperature and pressure, heavy oil is converted into higher value light oil through hydrogenation reaction.
• Reforming device: used to convert low octane gasoline components into high octane components, improving gasoline quality.
• Refining equipment: such as desulfurization, denitrification, and demetallization devices, used to remove impurities from oil products and improve oil quality.

Oil refining equipment

Oil refining equipment is mainly used to convert various oil raw materials (such as vegetable oil, animal fat, etc.) into edible oil or industrial oil. These devices typically include the following parts:

• Squeezing machine: used to squeeze oil and fat out of raw materials through physical pressure.
• Refining equipment: including devices for degumming, deacidification, decolorization, deodorization, etc., used to remove impurities and unpleasant odors from oils and improve the quality and stability of oils and fats.
• Refining equipment: such as oil refining pots, used to heat and refine oil to remove moisture and volatile substances.
• Filtering equipment: used to remove solid impurities from oil and improve the cleanliness of oil.

There are various types of refining equipment, and the required equipment varies depending on the different refining raw materials and products. When selecting refining equipment, comprehensive consideration should be given to specific needs, including equipment performance, efficiency, energy consumption, environmental friendliness, and other factors. At the same time, attention should also be paid to the quality and after-sales service of the equipment to ensure its stable operation and long-term benefits.
