Abstract

This perspective describes different schemes of power systems integration for various process technology in oil refining and petrochemistry with a focus on distillation. An overview is given of different methods of gas turbines and turboexpanders. Application of the organic Rankine cycle is considered for distillation processes, especially for unconventional schemes, which are integrated into the main process as stand-alone ones, as well when the working fluid of an energy system is a process stream per se. Despite a more complex structure and potential interference with the main process, such schemes are advantageous in terms of more efficient equipment utilization. Integration of turboexpanders in separation processes and in reactor units can improve energy generation efficiency 2–3 fold compared with traditional schemes of energy generation from fossil feedstock. From the economic viewpoint for distillation columns, total annual costs can be decreased by ca. 5–15% with the specific costs of additional generated electricity being very close to the costs of a heating utility.
