This document presents a process for recycling used lubricating oil through four stages: dehydration, solvent extraction, solvent stripping, and vacuum distillation. It evaluates technologies for pre-treating and finishing recycled oil. Several industrial re-refining projects in Saudi Arabia are discussed, along with their capacities and treatment methods. Material and energy balances are performed to analyze the recycling process and design a 5 ton/day plant.

all process involve in petroleum to get final products from crude oil like LPG, petrol, diesel, jet fuel, kerosene,neptha, heavy neptha, coke and petroleum products
In petroleum refining, the Crude Distillation Unit (CDU) (often referred to as the Atmospheric Distillation Unit) is usually the first processing equipment through which crude oil is fed. Once in the CDU, crude oil is distilled into various products, like naphtha, kerosene, and diesel, that then serve as feedstocks for all other processing units at the refinery.

Introduction to Refining
This refining overview includes segments on: Why we refine crude oil, a basic summary of the refining distillation process, and some historical perspective on the evolution of refining.
The complete Refining Module includes lessons on crude oil and products, refinery processes, key business drivers that impact refining profitability, and more.
Why Do We Refine Crude Oil?
Crude oil cannot be used as it occurs in nature, other than burning for fuel, which is wasteful, It must be refined to manufacture finished products such as gasoline and heating oil.
In the refinery, crude oil components can first be split by carefully applying heat to capture various parts, called fractions, within certain boiling ranges. This is called distillation. The quality of these initial fractions produced is not sufficient to be sold directly as petroleum products without further treatment.
Moreover, the yield of products from straight distillation of crude oil is not the same as the “demand barrel” needed for the marketplace. Crude oil must therefore be further processed using both heat and pressure to improve qualities and meet market demand.
A large part of refinery processing is concerned with converting unwanted heavy fuel oil into marketable gasoline and diesel, using various processing methods.
These slides are developed for a part of the undergraduate course in Petroleum Refinery Engineering. The slides are also helpful for Masters level introductory course.

Refinery complexity quantifies the sophistication and capital intensity of a refinery and has found widespread application in facility classification, cost estimation, sales price models and other uses.
This review describes the primary applications of refinery complexity and some recent extension.

Performance Analysis of An Automated Biodiesel ProcessorAdib Bin Rashid
The extraction of Biodiesel from vegetable oil is time-consuming and requires human involvement to perform and keep track of chemical titration, stirring, and washing
the product for each batch of production. A well-designed system can significantly eliminate human interaction and expedite the whole process. The construction of an inexpensive automated biodiesel plant can help produce Biodiesel on a large scale and make a
breakthrough in Bangladesh's economy as no such effort has been undertaken so far.
To achieve the desired aim, this paper focuses on implementing the construction of a cheap,
compact, and automatic system that will exhaustively reduce human interactions and the
processing time and increase biodiesel yield. For this purpose, an automated biodiesel processor was designed and constructed in conjunction with pumps, solenoid valves, level
sensors, temperature sensors, etc., using a programmable logic controller (PLC).
Upon completing a full cycle, the plant delivers certified Biodiesel and the leftover
by-products are collected for further recycling. Different batches of Biodiesel were produced.
A comparative study of the physical properties of the fuel and the diesel engine's performance characteristics by these fuel samples was analysed and showed satisfactory results.
SiGNa Oilfield Canada is a subsidiary of SiGNa Chemistry, a US-based manufacturer of stabilized alkali metals. Based in Calgary, SiGNa Oilfield Canada is committed to bringing innovative new chemical technologies to Canada's heavy oil market.
SiGNa's ActiveEOR® and ActiveSand® products are a new class of green chemicals that increase recovery from oil & gas reservoirs. SiGNa’s oil & gas products combine the benefits of chemical, immiscible gas, and thermal flooding techniques to give producers the advantages three oil recovery techniques from one easy-to-use, pumpable chemical. Silicides can be used as a standalone chemical or injected alongside other EOR techniques. Usable at any depth and with any viscosity, silicides generate heat, pressure, and silicates downhole, within the formation. No heat is lost on the surface and only minimal losses to the wellbore casing and tubing strings. These green chemicals produce only benign by-products and deliver cleaner wastewater, causing less impact on the environment.
The Investigation Of Utilizing Rapeseed Flowers Oil As A Reliable Feedstock T...IJERA Editor
The world demand for energy in recent decade has been dramatic. Indeed, several hydrocarbons reservoirs are depleted around the world. Moreover, the using of fossil fuels for example, natural gas and coal is emitted high quantities of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases to the environment that contributed in global worming phenomenon. Hence, many researchers and energy companies are attended and investigated to find out a new and reliable renewable energy source for example, biogas and biodiesel. Indeed, biodiesel can consider a reliable fuel due to many advantages for instance, reduce the global worming phenomenon, reduces carbon dioxide emissions and sustainable energy source. In fact, biodiesel can be produced from several resources for example, vegetable oil and animal fats. Rapeseed oil may consider a quite reliable and cheap source to produce biodiesel. Indeed, it has been observed that during the spring session in Iraqi Kurdistan region, wild rapeseed flowers are growing naturally in many cities of Iraqi Kurdistan for example, Sulaymaniyah, Ranya and Koya. The observed wild rapeseed flowers are produced considerable amounts of rape seed that can be invested to produced rapeseed oil and biodiesel. Therefore, this study is aimed to produce a reliable biodiesel from rapeseed flower oil by adopting transesterification reaction. Furthermore, this study has also applied process production parameters to find out the optimum operating conditions to produce biodiesel form the rapeseed oil for instance, amount of catalyst 1.25 % KOH and amount of methanol on biodiesel production yield about 7:1.Moreover, several laboratory tests for example, density, cloud point, pour point and cetane value have been applied for the produced biodiesel.

1. The purpose of this project is to present a
feasible and comprehensive technology for
recycling used lubricating oil. The re-refining
process consists of dehydration, solvent
extraction, solvent stripping, and vacuum
distillation.

refining. Elsevier; 2006 Jun 6.
2. Sinnott RK. Chemical engineering design: SI Edition. Elsevier;
2009 May 15.
Four process stages were studied, namely:
dehydration, solvent extraction, solvent stripping,
and vacuum distillation
(1) Dehydration of the used oil to remove
gasoline and water fractions that result from the
automobile engine operation.
(2) Chemical or physical pre-treatment of
dehydrated oil.
(3) Fractionation of pre-treated used oil.
(4) Finishing steps needed to improve color, odor,
and viscosity index including either clay
contacting or hydro treating or blending. The
major differences encountered between modern
re-refining technologies were due to pre-treatment
and finishing steps.

Recovery of Used Lubricating Oil
OBJECTIVES
* Oil may be the most important factor to
influence the shape of society in the 21st
century.
* Huge amounts of used lubricating oils from
automotive sources are disposed of as a harmful
waste into the environment. For this reason,
means to recover and reuse these wastes need to
be found. Valuable lubricant could be recovered
from disposing oil.
* It is estimated that more than 300,000 MT of
lubricating oil is sold each year in Saudi Arabia
but large percentage of the used oil is
unaccounted.
* Burning used-oil (formed in engine) is highly
toxic that can release carcinogens.
* Waste oil, if not properly handle, can result in
devastating impact on natural resources such as
groundwater, marine life, and soil quality.
