Technical FAQs 4

Can solar energy systems decarbonize oil refineries?

Other studies in the literature considered coupling solar energy systems to oil refineries to decarbonize their operation. The applicability and feasibility of introducing a concentrated solar power (CSP) system to reduce partial reliance on process heaters of a crude oil refinery was studied by Danish et al. .

Can solar energy drive crude oil refineries?

Employing solar energy to drive crude oil refineries is one of the investigated pathways for using renewable energy sources to support lowering the carbon emissions and environmental impact of operating the processing of fossil-based fuels.

Can solar-assisted petrochemical refineries greenize oil refineries?

This paper proposes a solar-assisted method for a petrochemical refinery, considering hydrogen production deployed in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia, as a case study to greenize oil refineries.

How does a refinery deal with energy shortages?

Additionally, given the refinery's connection to the grid, any energy shortages are supplemented by grid resources. The uncertainty surrounding wind and solar power production is addressed through a combination of each other, the dedicated gas power plant, grid resources, and biomass units.
