Monitoring crude oil composition with NIR
BUCHI NIR-Online® sensors: Determination of Moisture, Phosphorous, Iodine Value, and Free Fatty Acids in Crude Oil
Monitoring crude oil composition is an important process in the oil industry to ensure product quality, optimize refinery operations, and comply with regulatory standards. Crude oil is a complex mixture of hydrocarbons and various impurities, and its composition can significantly impact its market value and suitability for refining into various products.
Continuous monitoring ensures that the crude oil meets the desired specifications and reduces the risk of processing issues. It enables quick adjustments to processing parameters in response to changes in crude oil quality or incoming feedstocks.
