Water Treatment for Refineries and Chemical Plants
Course Description
Petroleum refineries and chemical plants use water and steam in a variety of processes, ranging from crude oil desalting to FCC units, cokers, steam generators and cooling towers. With scarcity of water common around the world proper treatment and operation of utility systems become critical to sustainable and reliable operations. Water treatment issues can impact the effectiveness of the corrosion control program, compromising the integrity of key pieces of heat transfer equipment and negatively affecting the energy efficiency of process units. New and improved options for wastewater treatment are critical in the effort to achieve ever more stringent refinery effluent water quality standards. This program provides an in-depth discussion of all aspects of water treatment, including basic water chemistry, boiler water pretreatment, mechanical and chemical deaeration, control of corrosion, scale and deposition in boilers and cooling systems as well as all of the available technologies for wastewater treatment.
