Abstract:
The fundamental purpose of the petroleum refining industry is to convert crude oil into refined products comprising more than 2,500 substances. Among the refined products are liquefied petroleum gasoline, aviation fuel, kerosene, fuel oils, diesel fuel, lubricating oils, and feedstocks, which have a variety of uses in the petrochemical and other industries. The petroleum refinery process begins with crude oil storage and continues with handling and refining operations before concluding with the separation process and shipping the refined compounds to their final destinations.

Abstract:
Energy-related greenhouse gas emissions dominate the carbon footprints of most product systems, where petroleum is one of the main types of energy sources. This is consumed as a variety of refined products, most notably diesel, petrol (gasoline) and jet fuel (kerosene). Refined product carbon footprints are of great importance to regulators, policymakers and environmental decision-makers. For instance, they are at the heart of current legislation, such as the European Union’s Renewable Energy Directive or the United States’ Renewable Fuels Standard.

Abstract:
Abstract Several online analytical instruments are commercially available to allow continuous monitoring of petroleum industry wastewater treatment plants. Satisfactory usage of these instruments requires -special attention for sample preconditioning and sample characterization prior to selection. Specific examples of the available instruments are provided. Effective maintenance of instruments is emphasized.

Abstract:
The main objective of this work was to improve the technological scheme of oil refinery wastewater treatment. Replacment of the expensive filter section in a refinery plant by coagulation in order to increase effectiveness of the process at lower cost was investigated. This research has proven that Ca(OH)2 and Al2(SO4)3 were effective in treatment of oil wastewater. Central Composite Design was applied to two factors, the Al2(SO4)3 dosage and pH. Under optimum conditions effect of removal of Turbidity did reach 100 %, Total hydrocarbons 90 % and COD 70 %. Concentration of Total hydrocarbons in
