Residuum - Introduction
Residuum is a by-product of the petroleum refining process and has the following properties:
1. High viscosity: Residuum is a viscous liquid, more viscous, because it is the residue of the oil refining process.
2. High density: Because it contains more heavy hydrocarbon compounds, the density of Residuum is relatively high.
3. High boiling point: the boiling point of Residuum is high, and it is usually separated later in the refining process.
Residuum has a variety of uses, including the following aspects:
1. Coking: The oil in Residuum can be used for coking and coke production, usually used in steel metallurgy and foundry industries.
2. Tar extraction: Tar can be extracted from the heat treatment Residuum, and tar can be used to produce asphalt, lubricants and certain chemicals.
3. Fuel oil and diesel: Residuum can be processed to produce fuel oil and diesel for industry and transportation.
The preparation of Residuum is usually carried out in the "condensing Tower" or "conversion equipment" of the refinery. Residuum is the residual material after the separation of oil light components in the oil refining process.
for the security information of Residuum, the following points should be paid attention:
1. High temperature: The Residuum may generate high temperature during processing and storage, so it is necessary to pay attention to fire prevention and high temperature operation.
2. Toxicity and corrosiveness: Residuum may contain some toxic and corrosive chemicals, so necessary safety measures need to be taken during handling, such as wearing appropriate protective equipment.
3. Explosiveness: If Residuum is mixed with oxygen in the air, it may form a flammable and explosive mixture, so it is necessary to avoid contact with fire sources.
