Hydroprocessing is a chemical engineering process used to refine petroleum and other organic feedstocks. It involves the use of hydrogen to convert or upgrade the feedstock into more valuable products. The process typically occurs at high temperatures and pressures, often in the presence of a catalyst. Hydroprocessing can be used to remove impurities, such as sulfur and nitrogen compounds, from the feedstock, making it suitable for further refining or for use as a fuel. It can also be used to convert heavy oils into lighter, more valuable products. The process is widely used in the petroleum industry to produce high-quality fuels and other petrochemical products. Hydroprocessing can be further categorized into different types, including hydrocracking, hydrodesulfurization, and hydroisomerization, each with specific applications and objectives. The choice of hydroprocessing method depends on the characteristics of the feedstock and the desired end products.
