Abstract:

The purpose of the work: to give a rationale for the evolution of oil, develop a flow diagram and calculate the commodity balance of an oil refinery. The paper describes in detail the characteristics of oil, potential reserves of oil products, oil code. Based on these data, an option for oil refining was selected and justified. A certain set of technological processes, which provides the most mandatory processing of the selected oil and a wide range of high quality products, requires the material balance of all process units and the refinery´s commodity balance

Keywords: oil characteristics, material balances, potential oil product contents, oil cipher, rational oil refining, obtaining a wide range of high-quality commercial products
