Reliable Gas Supply for Your Refinery Needs
- Hydrogen is widely used in refining processes to remove impurities found in crude oil such as sulfur to meet stringent product and environmental specifications. Removing these components allows gasoline and diesel to burn cleaner and thus makes hydrogen a critical component in the production of cleaner fuels needed by efficient internal combustion engines.
- Oxygen enrichment can help increase capacity or give refiners the ability to process crude blends of various densities and sulfur content.
- Nitrogen does not react with most materials, making it an excellent blanketing and purging gas that can be used to protect valuable products from harmful contaminants. One of its most important uses is to eliminate flammability risks in reactor vessels and storage tanks.
