The distillation process in the refinery separates the hydrocarbons contained in the crude into cuts based on the molecule size. The significant increase in lube yield over competitive technologies, the ultra-clean finished products, and broad feedstock flexibility propelled ISODEWAXING to become the preferred dewaxing process for lubricant base oil production in the world. D) In-Line Blending Important characteristics are low pour points, because of wax free nature and excellent solvency power. Masaru Mishima, Chairman of the Society and Investigation Working Committee for the Lubricants Quality Assurance Survey Committee at Japan Lubricating Oil Society, Nippon Mitsubishi Oil Corporation; Update of the DX-1 Development Kanji Kikuchi, Hino Motors Ltd. Paraffinic hydrocarbons are the best lubricants. B) Lube Oil Blending –An Overview for Lube Plants. Instead of removing wax molecules (as in solvent dewaxing) or cracking them to light C3-C8 hydrocarbons (as in classic catalytic dewaxing), the ISODEWAXING® Catalyst isomerizes the wax molecules into lube oil. Furthermore, as many unwanted substances as possible are removed in the process, such as sulphur, aromatic hydrocarbons, paraffin wax, etc. In other words the mineral oil production process is physical cleaning and the end product is so-called paraffinic base oil. Types of lubricants: ADDITIVES USED IN I.L.B. INTRODUCTION TO BASE OILS: CONSTRUCTION OF STORAGE TANK. Sepahan Oil produces Group I SN500 base oils, engine oils, industrial lubricants, automobile gear oils, greases and anti-freeze, paraffin, heavy slack wax and rubber processing oil at the Isfahan plant. In the refining process, the crude oil is converted into transportation fuels—gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel—and other petroleum products, such as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), heating fuel, lubricating oil, wax, and asphalt. High-gravity crude oils contain more of the lighter The most common separation process is distillation, where the components of the crude are separated into several streams based on their boiling temperature.
