Refining
Consider improved liquid alkylation catalysts
To process 'cleaner fuels,' refiners will seek octane gains from the blending pool; alkylate refinement is a possible solution
Process ultra-low sulfur diesel
New catalyst technology efficiently works at the molecular level to remove thiopenes

EU environmental laws impact fuels’ requirements
European refiners will have to make adjustments and investments to meet 2000/2005 "clean" gasoline and diesel specifications
Enterprise agility: the impact of e-commerce on the hydrocarbon marketplace
Markets are changing fast. Are you ready?
Use ATG for tank-based custody transfers
The technology is now accurate and reliable enough for these applications
Optimize alkylate production for clean fuels
New processing technology and catalysts enable revamping existing MTBE facilities into high-quality, alkylate processing units
Use FCC feed pretreating methods to remove sulfur
Refiners should consider partial-conversion hydrocracking techniques to make 'clean fuels,' increase product yields and improve refinery margins
