Abstract
The paper presents the results of feasibility study for increase of crude processing capacity and improves of energy efficiency of crude oil distillation units. Results introduce that boosting up the distillation capacity was solved while keeping the flexibility of units for processing different type crude oils. Analysis of heat exchanger network resulted significant reduction in fuel consumption and in CO2 emission (93 × 106 GJ year−1 and 3,030 tCO2 year−1, respectively). Modification of furnace of one of the distillation units showed 63 GJ kt crude −1 saving in energy and 4.5 tCO2 kt crude −1 decrease in emission.
