Conference Focus
The papers and posters of the conference will have relation to recent advances in downstream, petrochemicals, natural gas and renewables, loss prevention and HSE aspects in refining and petrochemical industry.
Key Highlights
Session: Downstream
Catalysis plays an increasingly critical role in modern petroleum refining and basic petrochemical industries as market demands for and specifications of petroleum and petrochemical products are continuously changing. As the new on- and off-road emissions and fuel standards go into effect, engine manufacturers and refiners face critical challenges, both in the production and market compliance of their new technologies. Cost improvement, quality and control of the production are becoming a critical factor in the downstream product's market. Standards are essential role in supporting policies, standardization must solve relationship between standards, laws and industry requirements.
