An international research has developed a membrane technology that could significantly reduce the energy required for crude ...

A team of international researchers has developed a simple membrane that could make crude oil refining much more energy ...

New PAN membrane pre-treatment cuts refinery energy use 31.6% and CO₂ emissions 37.6% with 3–5 year commercialization outlook ...

Currently the typical way that crude oil is processed involves a fractional distillation column, in which heated crude oil is separated into the various hydrocarbon compounds using distinct boiling ...

Refinery vacuum distillation units (VDUs) use ejector systems to establish and maintain distillation-column pressure for capturing valuable crude fractions and reducing vacuum residuum. Reliable ...

A study has shown that steamflooding distillation effects would improve crude recovery from thin reservoirs with less viscous crude. Steam distillation means that steam injection will cause some ...

An international research team led by KAIST has developed a membrane technology that could significantly reduce the energy required for crude oil refining by replacing part of the century-old ...

A South Korean research team has developed a separation membrane technology that filters light components like gasoline and naphtha from crude oil without heating it above 350°C. Experts assess that ...
