Clean Fuels Projects
Fuels are the most important energy sources, particularly in the transport sector. Therefore, the global petroleum market is focussed on the production of state of-the-art environment friendly fuels which meet the high quality standards of modern times. To add to environmental protection, a growing interest is also being shown in the use of renewable energies.
Changing market requirements and ever more stringent environmental standards necessitate high investments in additional conversion units to convert heavy gasoils and residues into light products, such as gasoline and diesel fuel. Technology providers, designers and catalyst vendors are challenged to deal with feedstocks becoming gradually more difficult to process in the future.
Uhde offers refinery customers optimum processes and efficient plants to enable them to meet these challenges and produce high-quality fuels. Two examples are shown on the next page.
Uhde’s activities in this sector are demonstrated by the following recent Reference Projects:
