c) Crude Distillation
i. CRUDE STORAGE AND SETTLING
Ankleshwer, North Gujarat & Bombay High crude
oils are received through their respective
pipelines and then stored in their respective
storage tanks.
iv. DESALTER
Crude enters for removal of salt and water at
bottom section of the desalter through an inlet
distributor. Crude is initially mixed with
adequate amount of DM water (3%) with the
help of mixing valve. Recommended pressure
drop across mixing valve is 1.2 to 1.6 Kg/cm2.
Adequate settling time is allowed to break the oil
water emulsion and salt water to settle down in
desalter. The desalted crude is withdrawn with
the help of outlet crude collector mounted on
the top most part inside the desalter. The
separated effluent water with dissolved salts is
drawn through interface level controller and
exchange heat with DM water. Effluent water is
then drained through a flash drum. Interface
level is maintained around 50%. The exact
interface level for efficient desalting will depend
upon the salt content and appearance of effluent
water.
✓ DEMULSIFIER
A emulsifying agent is injected into the crude
oil at the crude pumps common suction header
in the unit at the rate of 6ppm on crude T’put
and at the rate of 10ppm on T’put while
processing slop. Demulsifier helps in faster
emulsification inside the Desalter, thereby
helping in faster removal of water injected for
dissolving salt. Emulsifier is injected with the
help of pump P-222 A/B which takes suction
from emulsifier tank. A rota-meter is provided
for checking pumping rate. Injection rate of
demulsifier is adjusted by varying the pump
stroke.
✓ CAUSTIC INJECTION
Calcium and Magnesium Chloride present in
crude hydrolyses on heating and releases HCL
that attacks the overhead system. Some of
these calcium and magnesium chloride are
removed in the Desalter. To neutralize the
chlorides escaping from Desalter, caustic
solution is added into crude. In presence of
caustic they get converted into harmless NaCl.
The caustic dosing is done at a fixed rate of
40ppm on N/G crude throughput and is
injected in crude outlet line from Desalter.

Uses of petroleum coke
The product coke from a delayed coker has many
commercial uses and applications. The largest use is as a
fuel.
➢ The uses for green coke are:
1. Temperature
2. Pressure
3. Recycle ratio (Throughout ratio)
3. SULPHUR RECOVERY UNIT
SRU is having two trains each of 300 MTPD capacity with
common TGTU and storage and loading facilities. The
amine acid gas feed from the ARU enters each SRU train
at 45 degree Celsius (0.7 kg/cm2g) where it mixes with
the 55 degree Celsius recycle gas from TGU. The mixed
gas enters acid gas KOD. The SWS gas feed from the
sour water stripper unit is introduced via the knock-out-
drum. Sour water, separated in the knock out drums, is
intermittently collected in the sour water drain sump.
The gas is divided into two streams. One portion enters
the reaction furnace through the burner, where it is
partially oxidized along with all of SWS acid gas at 1300-
1470℃ to ensure total destruction of ammonia.
The remainder of amine acid gas is directed to the
second zone of the reaction furnace, the reaction
chamber.

4.FLUID CATALYTIC CRACKING
UNIT
In 1982 Gujarat Refinery FCC Unit was commissioned
with a capacity of 1 MMTPA. The requirement of LPG and
Gasoline has been increased and to meet that
requirement this unit has been revamped to 1.5 MMTPA
in 1999-2000.
➢ This UOP designed Fluidized Catalytic Cracking Unit
consists of three sections: -
a. Catalyst Section
b. Fractionation Section
c. Gas Concentration Section
CATALYST SECTION :-
REACTOR 820-RX-01: 19 The combined feed meets with
hot catalyst from regenerator at the bottom of reactor
riser. The resulting catalyst-oil vapour mixture is raised
to the desired reaction temperature by using sensible
heat of catalyst. Almost total cracking reaction takes
place in the riser. Residence time in the riser is around 3-
5 seconds. Lift steam is also introduced at the bottom of
the riser through flow controller 2FC-7201 and 2FC-7202
to lift the catalyst/oil mixture inside the riser. The oil
vapours disengage from the catalyst as soon as they
leave the VSS (Vortex Separator System) and leave the
reactor through 3 nos. single stage cyclone separators
suspended from reactor top head. The catalyst from the
cyclones returns to the dense phase of reactor, through
cyclone dip legs.
REACTOR STRIPPER:-
Catalyst descending from the reactor passes through the
stripper, which surrounds the upper portion of the riser.
Catalyst flows over the baffles counter current to the
rising stripping steam. The steam displaces oil vapour
from the catalyst particles and returns these vapours to
the reactor.
REGENERATOR :-
In the process of cracking in the riser / reactor, coke
deposition takes place on the catalyst surface. With the
result, the active surfaces of catalyst reduce. To
regenerate the catalyst, the deposited coke is burnt off
by air in the regenerator. The atmospheric air is taken
though a blower, 820-K-01, at ambient conditions and
discharged to the regenerator at 220-250 oC. The excess
air is vented to atmosphere by 2FC 6819. This c/v
controls the airflow through regenerator depending upon
the cyclone temperature set in the RMPC. The
regenerated catalyst leaves the regenerator through the
regenerator standpipe. A slide valve (RCSV), which is
reset by 2TC 7316, controls the temperature of the
reactor. An expansion joint is provided on this standpipe.
The regenerated catalyst goes to the bottom of the
reactor riser and is lifted by the lift steam/ VB naphtha.
As the catalyst rises up the riser it mixes with the
combined feed and slurry recycle streams, which are
injected through their respective nozzles. Thus catalyst
circulation is established between reactor and
regenerator. Normal catalyst circulation rate is 16-22
MT/minute.
FRACTIONATION SECTION: -
The cracked oil vapours at around 490-511oC from the
reactor top are fractionated into different cuts in this
section. Vapours enter the main fractionating column
820-C-01 at the bottom. The column internals consist of
08 valve trays and 06 packed beds.
GAS COMPRESSOR :-
Compressed gas from 1st stage of 830 K01A goes to
following at around 6 Kg/cm2 pressure. It enters the
interstate cooler 830 E-01A/B Before entering the cooler
it meets with a wash water stream from wash water
pumps 830-P-02 A/B. Normally, wash water flow is 7-
10% of raw oil by volume. Wash water reduces the effect
of hydrogen blistering.
