Natural Gas (from a natural reservoir or associated to a crude production) can contain acid gas (H2S and/or CO2)..
The Gas Sweetening Process aims to remove part or all of the acid gas.

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.

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.

With rising crude prices and depleting quality of crude, however, the level of wastewater pollutants in petroleum wastewater is at new high. Such conditions are forcing refineries to use a more advanced water treatment, water recovery methods, and robust processes that work well under a variety of conditions and can handle the changing refinery effluent flow rates. Finally a process that is economical in overall life time cost is needed to make all of this feasible. Aquatech has experience working with these refinery effluent pollutants in the refinery market and offers the advanced petroleum wastewater treatment and recovery technology necessary for the refinery’s needs.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
6. Refining Operations
Petroleum refining processes and operations can be separated into five basic
areas:
• Fractionation (distillation) is the separation of crude oil in atmospheric and
vacuum distillation towers into groups of hydrocarbon compounds of
differing boiling-point ranges called "fractions" or "cuts."
• Conversion Processes change the size and/or structure of hydrocarbon
molecules. These processes include: :
– Decomposition (dividing) by thermal and catalytic cracking;
– Unification (combining) through alkylation and polymerization; and
– Alteration (rearranging) with isomerization and catalytic reforming.
• Treatment Processes to prepare hydrocarbon streams for additional
processing and to prepare finished products.
– Treatment may include removal or separation of aromatics and
naphthenes, impurities and undesirable contaminants.
– Treatment may involve chemical or physical separation e.g. dissolving,
absorption, or precipitation using a variety and combination of
processes including desalting, drying, hydro-desulfurizing, solvent
refining, sweetening, solvent extraction, and solvent dewaxing
7. Refining Operations
• Formulating and Blending is the process of mixing and combining
hydrocarbon fractions, additives, and other components to produce
finished products with specific performance properties.
• Other Refining Operations include:
– light-ends recovery;
– sour-water stripping;
– solid waste, process-water and wastewater treatment;
– cooling, storage and handling and product movement;
– hydrogen production;
– acid and tail-gas treatment;
– and sulfur recovery.
10. Pretreatment of Crude Oil
• Petroleum recovered from reservoir is mixed with
a variety of substances such as gases, water,
chloride salts, and dirt, which contain other
minerals.
• Thus, petroleum processing actually commences
shortly after the production of fluids from
reservoir, where pretreatment operations are
applied to the crude oil prior to transportation.
• Any crude oil to be shipped by pipeline, or by any
other form of transportation, must meet strict
regulations in regard to water and salt content.
11. Dewatering & Desalting
• Petroleum is recovered
from the reservoir mixed
with a variety of
substances: gases, water,
and dirt (minerals).
• The purpose of
dewatering and desalting
is to remove water and
the constituents of the
brine that accompany the
crude oil from the
reservoir to the wellhead
during recovery
operations.
12. Dewatering & Desalting
• Field separation, which occurs at a field site near the recovery
operation, is the first attempt to remove the gases, water, and dirt
that accompany crude oil coming from the ground.
• The separator may be no more than a large vessel that gives a
quieting zone for gravity separation into three phases: gases, crude
oil, and water containing entrained dirt.
• Desalting is a water-washing operation performed at the
production field and at the refinery site for additional crude oil
cleanup.
• If the petroleum from the separators contains water and dirt, water
washing can remove much of the water-soluble minerals and
entrained solids.
• If these crude oil contaminants are not removed, they can cause
operating problems during refinery processing, such as equipment
plugging and corrosion as well as catalyst deactivation.
13. Dewatering and Desalting Process
• Crude oil distillation is more complicated than product distillation,
in part because crude oils contain water, salts, and suspended
solids.
• Step 1 in the refining process is to remove these contaminants so as
to reduce corrosion, plugging, and fouling of equipment and to
prevent poisoning catalysts in processing units.
• Step 2 most typical methods of crude-oil desalting are chemical and
electrostatic separation, and both use hot water as the extraction
agent.
• In chemical desalting, water and chemical surfactant (demulsifiers)
are added to the crude, which is heated so that salts and other
impurities dissolve or attach to the water, then held in a tank to
settle out.
• Electrical desalting is the application of high-voltage electrostatic
charges to concentrate suspended water globules in the bottom of
the settling tank. Surfactants are added only when the crude has a
large amount of suspended solids.
• Step 3(and rare) process filters hot crude using diatomaceous earth
15. Dewatering and Desalting Process
• The crude oil feedstock is heated to 65-180°C to reduce
viscosity and surface tension for easier mixing and
separation of the water.
• The temperature is limited by the vapor pressure of the
crude-oil feedstock.
• In both methods other chemicals may be added.
Ammonia is often used to reduce corrosion. Caustic or
acid may be added to adjust the pH of the water wash.
• Wastewater and contaminants are discharged from the
bottom of the settling tank to the wastewater
treatment facility.
