Title: Analysis of The Possibilities for Reducing Water Vapor Consumption in Oil Refineries by Improving the Condensate Separation System
Keywords: Condensate separation system, oil refinery

Abstract: It is known that in oil refineries, water vapor is the most used heat carrier, which is transported to consumers through a steam transmission network and occupies a significant share in their energy balance. From this point of view, any organizational or technical measure leading to a reduction in steam consumption can be considered an economic and energy-efficient solution. Of significant interest is the consumption of steam, because there is the greatest potential for the implementation of energy-saving measures. The required steam parameters for each specific installation are different, but the main reason for using this technology is that refineries have one main source of thermal energy that must supply steam to consumers. The article discusses and analyses the factors related to the possibility of reducing water vapor consumption in oil refineries by improving the condensate separation system.
