Hydrotreating & Hydrocracker Technology
Review the licensed technologies and configurations used for hydrotreating and hydrocracking. Participants evaluate conversion, selectivity and yield against unit design, assess metallurgy and high-pressure loop integrity, and identify realistic debottlenecking options.
This subject may be offered at different levels; scope, depth and prerequisites are confirmed for the selected programme.
- Review the licensed technologies and configurations used for hydrotreating and hydrocracking.
- Understand catalyst systems, grading and loading strategies and their effect on run length.
- Evaluate conversion, selectivity and product yield against unit design.
- Assess metallurgy, high pressure loop integrity and hydrogen embrittlement risk.
- Benchmark unit performance and identify realistic debottlenecking options.
