Which processes in refineries use compressors?
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts here: what processes in a refining plant require compressors? And what pressure and power range are required for the compressor, and what types of compressors are typically used for each?
If you’d like to know what a “refining plant” does, please specify, thank you! :)
Looking at various types of equipment: the hydrogen compressors used for hydrogen production in oil refining, as well as the various compressors used in ethylene production plants
Hydrogenation unit, liquefied gas, nitrogen production, air compressor
It mainly refers to the “three machines” in the ethylene plant, namely the pyrolysis gas compressor, the ethylene compressor, and the propylene compressor
Compressors are used in every unit where there is a need to boost the pressure of process gases. Your question is too general; could you be more specific?
