A chemical plant is an industrial process plant that manufactures chemicals, usually on a large scale.
The general objective of a chemical plant is to create new material wealth via the chemical or biological transformation and or separation of materials. Chemical plants use specialized equipment, units, and technology in the manufacturing process. Other kinds of plants, such as polymer, pharmaceutical, food, and some beverage production facilities, power plants, oil refineris, natural gas processing and biochemical plants, use many technologies that have similarities to chemical plant technology such as fluid systems and chemical reactor systems.
Petrochemical plants are usually located adjacent to an oil refinery to minimize transportation costs for the feedstocks produced by the refinery.
Oil refinery is an industrial process plant where crude oil is transformed and refined into more useful products such as petroleum, naphtha, gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, jet fuel and fuel oils. Petrochemicals feed stock like ethylene and propylene can also be produced directly by cracking crude oil without the need of using refined products of crude oil such as naphtha.
Petroleum refineries are very large industrial complexes that involve many different processing units and auxiliary facilities such as utility units and storage tanks. Each refinery has its own unique arrangement and combination of refining processes largely determined by the refinery location, desired products and economic considerations. An oil refinery is considered an essential part of the downstream side of the petroleum industry.
Non-linear increases in surface area to mass, reaction kinetics, fluid dynamics and other key process parameters are addressed during our front-end engineering and design stages. Civil upgrades, plant tie-ins and OSHA exposure are carefully planned. From the design stage through commissioning EPIC delivers a fully tested,chemical plant that meets your specifications, budget and timeline.
