COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The course is mainly about the petrochemical industry. Talks about several chemicals and their chemical routes in order to produce in mass scale the demands of the market.
Learn about:
* Petorchemical Industry
* Difference between Petroleum Refining vs. Petrochemical Industry
* Paraffins, Olefins, Napthenes & Aromatics
* Market insight (production, consumption, prices)
* Two main Petrochemical Processes: Naphtha Steam Cracking and Fluid Catalytic Cracking
* The most important grouping in petrochemical products
* Petrochemical physical & chemical properties. Chemical structure, naming, uses, production, etc.
* Basic Gases in the industry: Ammonia, Syngas, etc...
* C1 Cuts: Methane, Formaldehyde, Methanol, Formic Acid, Urea, Chloromethanes etc...
* C2 Cuts: Ethane, Acetylene, Ethylene, Ethylene Dichloride, Vinyl Chloride, Ethylene Oxide, Ethanolamines, Ethanol, Acetaldehyde, Acetic Acid, Ethylene Glycols (MEG, DEG, TEG)
* C3 Cuts: Propane, Propylene, Propylene Oxide, Isopropanol, Acetone, Acrylonitrile, Propediene, Allyl chloride, Acrylic acid, Propionic Acid, Propionaldehyde, Propylene Glycol
* C4 Cuts: Butanes, Butylenes, Butadiene, Butanols, MTBE (Methyl Tert Butyl Ethers)
* C5 cuts: Isoprene, Pentanes, Piperylene, Cyclopentadiene, Dicyclopentadiene, Isoamyl, etc...
* Aromatics: Benzene, Toluene, Xylenes (BTX), Cumene, Phenol, Ethyl Benzene, Styrene, Pthalic Anhydride, Nitrobenzene, Aniline, Benzoic Acid, Chlorobenzene, etc...
At the end of the course you will feel confident in how the petrochemical industry is established. You will know the most common petrochemicals as well as their distribution, production and importance in daily life. It will help in your future process simulations by knowing the common and economical chemical pathways.

Hii I'm a brazilian students of Chemical Engineering and I found your channel and it's amazingggg. Your videos and how you speak, aspen tutorials, everything. Great work!!!
Thanks my friend! Im happy you enjoy them! big hug to brazil!
Thank you Sir , My exam is coming in next week and this video helps a lots ........
Love from India
how it go?
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy Its was much better than I expected .... All thanks to you.....Also share this video among my friends....
@@manthanchauhan4014 for sure my friend, im truly happy that it helped you!
Nice explanation of the old high pressure route.
Many thanks!
Very enjoyable content, with the complex processes nicely simplified
thanks! thats the idea, trying to make it simple and enjoyable
This is one of the better but actually it's impossible to find a video where they describe the process of turning biomass via microwave assisted pyrolysis into synthetic fuel and biochar. That's so frustrating since if we have such good pyrolysis reactors then the resulting fuel could be perhaps be cheaper than fossil one. People who object the forced transition to electric might then have a second clean option but most likely with higher cost. And of course first of all synthetic fuel would go to planes.
I see! sorry about that!
I really need it to study for my exams
you can check out the reference lecture, there are some courses, some videos, some books that I recommend there
You're a great help. thank you so much
Im glad you liked it!
Hello good morning..
Pls why is the pressure not reduced at the first phase separator.
And how can the distillation in the columns be optimised
From where aldehydes and ketone came which we are purifying by mixing with KMnO4
I was worried about sidereactions for my wood gas to methanol fuel plant but higher alcohols and dme are not an issue for otto type engines. Ill just get ridof the water and filter out ze particulates and run it that way
Cool, do you designed the process?
Hi. What would be the efficiency of a solar plant methanol ? For example I inject 1Mwh of energies in this plant, how many kwh of methanol energies could I get ? 30% of the total input ?
Hello, can you provide the translation feature in Arabic by controlling some settings? Because translation is only available in English, other than the video
Srry, I dont speak that language, hopefully in the future I get a translator for that :)
I wonder why didn't Germany and Japan produce this en mass during WWII. They had huge problems with gasoline supply and methanol is a good fuel, and you just need coal (for the temperature) and wood (for the feedstock) to make it.
they did try to use synthetic fuels, but still, back then all these materials came from fossil fuels... Note that approximately 65% of methanol produced worldwide today comes from natural gas, and a very small % from wood. Remember that opearting with solids, and biomass is way harder, you need to have huge fields, cut them, transport, dry, chop into smaller pieces, and only then you can start creating some fuels
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy From what I remember they were utilizing the Fischer-Tropsch method - conversion of syngas into hydrocarbons - paraffins and olefins.
But here we're talking about producing methanol.
Is there a technological difficulty level between those two?
Please tell me the reference of the video
which book did you use ?
lots of books, tbh, there is not a single book I took it from...
Does anyone know anything about people supervising and working in this process? My brother needs it for his assignment... The prof won't let him pass without this info. Thank you in advance!
I hope you find someone soon!
Nice course..thx
thank you ;)
If I want to eventually become an operator or process engineer do I need to master dif eq? We use it a lot in process control at the moment, but I havent used it in years and forgot so much up until this class.
Not really, of course it depends on the area... It is of course important to know them, as you might encounter math analysis requiring them... Diff Equations are definetively much more common in process control / automation
Hey, do you have any papers or detailed info on that mixing reactor where adehydes and ketones are oxidised (the one with the KMnO4 catalyst)??
Not really, but check Scribd.com or in Researchgate.net
KMnO4 is a strong oxidizing agent , so will it not affect methanol at all?
Yep, it will typically oxidize it to an acid depending on the concentration of permanganate
Is the reactor a heat exchanger? for cooling or heating purpose?
The reactor should not be considered a heat exchanger, but I get your point, you mean if we are adding or removing heat from or to the reactor... As you can see, there is addition of steam to the reactor, this helps in heat exchange, i.e. we are adding heat to the system, this is an endothermic reaction overall
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy But you explained that the main reaction is exothermic! ...do you know what is the possible flowmeter that can be used for this process?
So we can use more than 1 atm pressure for distillation tower?
In theory, yes, why?
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy because i did trial for bubble point feed temperature using more than 1 atm pressure and the temperature got increased as well. it is exceed the boiling point of water. is that okay? does it make the distillation tower very high?
how we can change our rector type ( adiabatic to isotherm)
What do you mean?
Sir I want the report for the manufacture of methanol ....
Srry, I do not have any kind of reports such as that, but there are lots of resources in the internet! check it ou1
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy pls give some links sir
hii sir can you give me some project idea for chemical engineering branch
of course, which type of project are you thinking ?
Great intro, but much more than 20 million tons a year is produced industrially around the world, even in 2019.
Global methanol production in 2020 was approximately 100 million metric tons, of which, only 20-25% come from syngas, those are the stats I got back in the day
1 000 000$ MAN!
XD
I have a exercise, I would speak to you, do you have an email
for sure, send it to my email
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy You're way too nice...
