Oxygenated Hydrogen Distillation Ethanol – The way Oscar made it
Slide13: Distillation uses heat to sort and process hydrocarbon molecules into “Fractions”, based on their boiling points.
“Fractions” are complex mixtures of chemical compounds that all have a similar boiling point.

Slide53: Examples of finished hydrocarbon molecules
Slide54: PETROLEUM REFINERIES:
WHAT ARE THEY DOING IN THERE?
Slide55: Petroleum refineries come in all shapes and sizes.
Their job is to safely and efficiently process various crude oils into useful products for consumers, while operating in an environmentally safe manner.
Slide56: Refineries employ people with advanced training in several different professions, ranging from Operations, to Chemical Engineering, to Marketing.
Slide57: WHAT IS CRUDE OIL AND WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?
Slide58: Crude Oil is a complex amalgamation of chains of hydrocarbon molecules
Slide59: Crude oil is produced in many different countries and oceans all around the globe
Slide60: Crude Oil can be produced in several different ways. Land based liquid crude oil wells Ocean based liquid crude production Land based mining techniques for production of solid crudes, such as Bitumen and Oil Shale
Slide61: Solid Crudes require additional processing for ease of Transport & Refining
Slide62: How do you turn crude oil into something useful?
Slide63: A petroleum refinery’s job is to break crude oil hydrocarbon molecule chains down into slightly different groupings of molecules.
Slide64: There are several different ways to process molecules in order to sort or change them. Distillation using heat Chemical Reactions Changes in Pressure Differences in molecular weight
Slide65: How is a refinery set up to do all this? The processing concept is relatively simple.
Slide66: “The Five Pillars of Refining”
1. Distillation
2. Catalytic Cracking
3. Catalytic Reforming
4. Alkylation
5. Hydroprocessing
Slide67: “Heavy” fractions such as asphalt have a higher boiling point. “Light” fractions such as gasoline or propane have a lower boiling point.
Slide68: What does a Catalytic Cracker do?
It breaks long molecules into smaller molecules in the presence of high heat levels and a catalyst.
Slide69: What does a Catalytic Reformer do, and how does it work?
It re-arranges the molecular structure of the hydrocarbon molecules using catalysts (typically platinum) in the presence of heat.
Slide70: What does an Alkylation Unit do?
An “alky” unit operates at lower temperatures and pressures, using an acid catalyst to re-arrange or recombine the hydrocarbons.
Slide71: What is Hydroprocessing?
There are 2 types:
1.Hydrotreating, which is the addition of hydrogen molecules without breaking the molecule into smaller pieces.
2. Hydrocracking, which is the high pressure cracking of long chain molecules into shorter chain molecules

Capacity- 350,000 Barrels per day
Slide73: So how is Asphalt made?
Slide74: Asphalt is comprised of the highest boiling point material, and has the heaviest molecular weight hydrocarbon chains.
Slide75: Trinidad Lake “Neat” Asphalt gathering process in 2002.
Asphalt Emulsion and Modified Asphalt can be produced by passing the asphalt and modifiers through a shear mill.: Asphalt Emulsion and Modified Asphalt can be produced by passing the asphalt and modifiers through a shear mill.
Slide77: A simple asphalt emulsion mill setup.
Slide78: They even make portable emulsion mills that you can put in an airplane.
Slide79: Emulsions are built to “break”, sooner or later.
Slide80: Stages in breaking of a Cationic Emulsion
Slide81: Now that we’ve made the emulsion, what do we do with it? How do we get the pearls on the pig?
Slide82: Today’s asphalt distributors
Slide84: CRS-2P, CRS-2LM CRS-2P, CRS-2LM CRS-2P, CRS-2LM CRS-2P, CRS-2LM CRS-2P, CRS-2LM CRS-2P, CRS-2LM
Slide85: Today’s highway needs often demand modified paving grades. Hot Asphalt for Hot Mix
Slide86: “Modified” Asphalt is made by adding polymers, and is usually run through some type of shear mill. Examples of Modified Asphalt grades include:
PG64-34 (Produced in Montana)
PG70-28 (Produced in Montana)
PG64-28 (Produced in Montana)
PBA6a(mod) (California)
GGB3 (California)
PG76-22CC (Clark County, Nevada)
PG76-22TR (Arizona)
CRA Type 1 (Arizona)
Slide87: Modified Asphalt shear mills are set up in much the same way that emulsion mills are, but without the addition of water.
