column

column systems are an integral part of the entire system of oil and gas processing. Initial production, transport, refining, and recycling all require the use of heat transfer fluids. Offshore platforms use Therminol liquid-phase heat transfer fluids for facility heating and regeneration of glycols that are used to remove water from the natural gas produced. Refineries use liquid-phase heat transfer fluids to heat reboilers and columns for the distillation of oil and oil-based products.
