Residfiner at an oil refinery
Oil refinery. This is the residfiner area, where crude oil products are processed to remove any impurities, such as sulphur. The oil is heated to up to 400 degrees Celsius and treated with pressurized hydrogen. The resulting purified oil is then passed to cracking units, such as the catalytic cracker, where the oil is broken down into raw materials for petrol or the chemical industry.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the residfiner area at an oil refinery, specifically ExxonMobil's Fawley Oil Refinery in Hampshire, UK. The image captures the essence of European industrial technology and highlights the intricate structure of this essential facility. In this bustling scene, crude oil products undergo a meticulous purification process to eliminate impurities like sulphur. The temperature soars up to 400 degrees Celsius as pressurized hydrogen is introduced into the mix. This innovative technique results in refined oil that is free from any unwanted elements. The tower-like structures dominate the landscape, representing both British engineering prowess and technological advancements within the industry. These towering figures are not mere buildings but rather vital equipment for refining and purifying oil. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph symbolizes progress and innovation within Europe's thriving oil industry. It serves as a testament to ExxonMobil's commitment to excellence in chemical engineering and structural design. Furthermore, it reminds us of how these refineries play a crucial role in producing raw materials for petrol or various sectors within the chemical industry. By breaking down crude oil through cracking units like catalytic crackers, this complex system generates valuable resources that fuel our daily lives. Overall, Science Photo Library has captured an extraordinary moment at Fawley Oil Refinery – a harmonious blend of artistry and scientific achievement that epitomizes Britain's contribution to global industrialization.
