Enos Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c2124 Chapter pages in book: (p. 299 - 322) Invention and Innovation in the Petroleum Refining Industry JOHN L. ENOS MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY AN INNOVATION is the combination of many different activities. Gener- ally an invention is made and recognized, capital is obtained, plant is acquired, managers and workers are hired, markets are developed, and production and distribution take place. As the innovation proceeds the original conception may be altered to make it more amenable to commercial realities. Accomplishing these activities consumes re- sources. At any point in the sequence failure may occur, delaying or even frustrating the innovation. In studying the petroleum refining industry I observed several pro- cessing innovations following one another in time and generating technological progress.' I then sought their origins in terms of the original ideas and the men who conceived them. In this paper I shall discuss the relations between the inventions and the subsequent inno- vations, focusing on the intervals between them, the returns to the inventors and innovators, and the changes in the proportions in which the factors of production in petroleum processing were combined.

  • A Case Study in Fluid Catalytic Cracking
    THERMAL DENOX OPTIMIZATION: A CASE STUDY IN FLUID CATALYTIC CRACKING by: David E. Rozier III A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College Oxford May 2017 Approved by: ______________________________ Advisor: Dr. Adam Smith ______________________________ Reader: Dr. John O’Haver ______________________________ Reader: Dr. Wei-Yin Chen i © 2017 David E. Rozier III ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii This thesis is dedicated to my late grandfather, David E. Rozier, Sr., who was fond of saying, “A job worth doing is a job worth doing well.” iii Acknowledgments First and foremost, my completion of this thesis would not have been possible without the love and support of my family and friends, especially my parents, Dave and Jackie Rozier. I would like to thank Dr. Adam Smith, Dr. John O’Haver, Dr. Wei-Yin Chen, and Mr. David Carroll for their feedback and encouragement. I would also like to thank ExxonMobil for affording me the opportunity as an intern to conduct this project work and granting me permission to publish technical details. Finally, I must thank all of my coworkers in Operations Support at the Baton Rouge Refinery for their assistance with the project discussed here. iv Abstract This thesis will first provide background information on fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), a highly important unit operation to the process of petroleum refining, and a description of Thermal DeNOx, an environmental treatment system common to FCC units and other process units where high temperature furnaces are used. Next, this thesis will detail a project which I had the chance to lead as a process engineering intern at ExxonMobil’s Baton Rouge Refinery in the fall of 2016.

  • The Catalytic Development of High Octane Gasoline Lead
    Volume 16 Number 041 Giving Gas a Boost: The Catalytic Development of High Octane Gasoline Lead: In the 1930s, oil companies were struggling to boost the octane of gasoline. Eugène Houdry’s catalytic cracking process made it possible and may have helped win World War II. Intro.: A Moment in Time with Dan Roberts. Content: When it comes from the ground, crude oil is almost useless, a mixture of thousands of different types of hydrocarbons: asphalt to gasoline to natural gas. Each has a different molecular weight, therefore, crude oil must be refined to pull out the impurities such as sulfur compounds and separate different components such as kerosene, gasoline, fuel oil, and so forth. In the 19th century kerosene was the most valuable product because it was used in lamps and for heating. Because it was so unstable, gasoline was often just dumped on the ground or in a nearby stream and natural gas, considered completely useless, was just burned off at the well. By the early 20th century things had changed. Because of the automobile, the most valuable product of crude oil had become gasoline. It, however, was becoming more and more rare as automobiles grew in number and power. The problem was that not all gasoline was the same. Different grades of gas are determined by the level of octane they contain. The scale is 0 to 100. The higher the number the greater the power and the less knocking. In an internal combustion engine, gasoline is combined with air inside a cylinder, it is then fired off by a spark plug, and the resulting explosion creates compression which pushes the cylinder and turns the engine.

I have grown significantly as a researcher and person during the last five years, and this has been in no small part because of the time he has invested and the influence he has had on me. I would additionally like to thank my committee members in Dr. Francisco Zaera and Dr. David Kisailus for their help in redirecting my studies where needed. I am thankful for the whole Christopher lab for the help and friendship over the course of my studies. Specific credit goes to Matt Kale, Talin Avanesian, Leo DeRita, and Yibo Jiang for helping both in the lab and with discussion. A good portion of my research was due to people like Gabriel Gusmão, Vanessa Yang, Kyle Gunther, and Eric Lin getting their hands dirty and doing a lot of the actual experimentation that was needed. I additionally appreciate Alexander (Sasha) Dudchenko, for being extremely helpful with automation and general troubleshooting in the lab.
