The refining industry plays a pivotal role as both a major producer and consumer of hydrogen. This session will explore how this sector is adapting to evolving hydrogen production and consumption trends as part of its energy transition strategy.
Refineries are increasingly focusing on hydrogen as a key component in the energy transition.
Hydrogen can serve as a clean fuel and a feedstock for various processes, including hydrocracking and hydrotreating, which are essential for producing low-sulphur fuels.
The refining industry employs various methods to produce hydrogen, including steam methane reforming (SMR), partial oxidation, and electrolysis.
The advancements in technology and processes will enhance efficiency and sustainability in hydrogen production and optimizing the hydrogen balance within refineries.
Biorefineries are emerging as a crucial component in the hydrogen production landscape.
