Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Complex Analysis and Regional Development: A Case Study of Refinery-Petrochemical-Synthetic Fiber Complexes and Puerto Rico This book is the third in a series of Regional Science Studies. In line with the objectives of this series, it attempts to fill an important gap in the existing stock of analytical techniques in the fields of regional science, industrial geography and location, and regional economics and planning. It develops the industrial complex approach to analysis, a new approach which aims to complement and cultivate the area lying between input-output and linear programming methods on the one hand, and individual industry comparative-cost study on the other. This approach is fully developed in the form of a case study involving Puerto Rico as the primary region, and oil refining, petrochemical, synthetic fiber, and fertilizer processes as the chief production activities. As with the preceding volume in the Regional Science Studies series, this third book develops empirical materials which should be of interest to many. The detailed data, analyses, and results should prove valuable not only to companies and personnel engaged in oil refining, and in the production of petrochemicals, fertilizers, and synthetic fibers, but also to firms and business officials in various fields who seek diversification and new, profitable channels for expansion. Also, the approach as well as the empirical materials should be of considerable significance to government agencies, business units, planners, and scholars concerned with economic development. The materials relate to industrial growth in an underdeveloped region (Puerto Rico). The approach demonstrates how study of development potentials in terms of individual industry investigations may be supplemented and complemented with analysis of the interrelations of these industries - without being involved in general frameworks such as input-output, which too frequently are nonoperational for underdeveloped and other regions.

Download or read book Fundamentals of Petroleum Refining written by Mohamed A. Fahim and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2009-11-19 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fundamentals of Petroleum Refining presents the fundamentals of thermodynamics and kinetics, and it explains the scientific background essential for understanding refinery operations. The text also provides a detailed introduction to refinery engineering topics, ranging from the basic principles and unit operations to overall refinery economics. The book covers important topics, such as clean fuels, gasification, biofuels, and environmental impact of refining, which are not commonly discussed in most refinery textbooks. Throughout the source, problem sets and examples are given to help the reader practice and apply the fundamental principles of refining. Chapters 1-10 can be used as core materials for teaching undergraduate courses. The first two chapters present an introduction to the petroleum refining industry and then focus on feedstocks and products. Thermophysical properties of crude oils and petroleum fractions, including processes of atmospheric and vacuum distillations, are discussed in Chapters 3 and 4. Conversion processes, product blending, and alkylation are covered in chapters 5-10. The remaining chapters discuss hydrogen production, clean fuel production, refining economics and safety, acid gas treatment and removal, and methods for environmental and effluent treatments. This source can serve both professionals and students (on undergraduate and graduate levels) of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering, Chemistry, and Chemical Technology. Beginners in the engineering field, specifically in the oil and gas industry, may also find this book invaluable. Provides balanced coverage of fundamental and operational topics Includes spreadsheets and process simulators for showing trends and simulation case studies Relates processing to planning and management to give an integrated picture of refining

Download or read book Multinational Enterprise and Transnational Regions written by Marten Boon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multinational Enterprise and Transnational Regions offers an innovative approach to the study of the history of transnational economic regions. The Rhine valley is such a region comprising the cities and areas along the Rhine river and its tributaries. The transition from coal to oil that unfolded between 1945 and 1973 rapidly transformed the region, shattering some of the old river-based connections and creating new ones with the introduction of large-scale cross-border oil pipelines. Multinational enterprises shaped these new regional connections but divergent national government responses gave rise to differentiated development in different parts of the Rhine valley. Multinational Enterprise and Transnational Regions argues that processes of regional change should be understood from transnational interconnections rather than from local or national perspectives. This book uses a transnational business history methodology to tease out the region’s transformation and to circumvent the national bias in public sources. It will be of relevance to academics and researchers with an interest in regional and transnational European history, international business, environmental history, and business history, as well as practitioners interested in the oil industry, energy and energy history, business history and international business, and associated disciplines.

Download or read book Petroleum Refining written by James H. Gary and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2007-03-05 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Petroleum refiners must face billion-dollar investments in equipment in order to meet ever-changing environmental requirements. Because the design and construction of new processing units entail several years’ lead time, refiners are reluctant to commit these dollars for equipment that may no longer meet certain conditions when the units come on stream. Written by experts with both academic and professional experience in refinery operation, design, and evaluation, Petroleum Refining Technology and Economics, Fifth Edition is an essential textbook for students and a vital resource for engineers. This latest edition of a bestselling text provides updated data and addresses changes in refinery feedstock, product distribution, and processing requirements resulting from federal and state legislation. Providing a detailed overview of today’s integrated fuels refinery, the book discusses each major refining process as they relate to topics such as feedstock preparation, operating costs, catalysts, yields, finished product properties, and economics. It also contains end-of-chapter problems and an ongoing case study.
