Succesfull and timely completion of FCC Slurry Oil Filtration project for Indian Refinery Upgrade
Royal Dahlman added another project delivery to its extensive reference list of Slurry Oil Filtration packages for the refining and petrochemical industries. The Slurry Oil Filter is a critical part in the refinery upgrade enforced by the Indian government aiming to implement BS-VI fuel in the entire country from April 2020 to curb pollution. Oil firms will have to be prepared to retail BS VI-compliant fuel by then. Clarified Oil will be processed in Delayed Coker Unit for production of Needle Coke. With processing of CLO in DCU, RCO will be surplus and the surplus RCO will be fed to the FCC unit.

The project ensures profitability of the refinery by improving distillates yield and enhance production of MS and LPG.
