Detailed Project Report on lube oil blending and greases plant

LUBE OIL BLENDING AND GREASES PLANT
[CODE NO.3442]


Lube  oils  generally  include all  classes  of  lubricating materials  that are applied as fuels.  Nearly all of the world's lube oils are made from the move viscous portion of the crude oil which  remain after removal of gas oil and lighter  fractions  by distillation. Much of the variations in physical characteristics and  performance  qualities of lubricating oils prepared from different crude sources can be accounted for by the millions  of variations that can exist in a single large hydrocarbon molecule.  In order to minimize variations and produce products that provide consistent  performance in specific applications, four steps  are followed in the manufacture of finished lubricating oils from the various  available crudes.  Selection and aggregating of crudes according to the principal types of  hydrocarbon present; distillation of the crude to separate it into fractions containing hydrocarbons in the same sp  range;  processing to remove undesirable  constituents from the various fractions or to convert  same  of these materials constituents from  the  various fractions or to convert same of these materials to more desirable materials,  and blending to attain the  physical  characteristics that  are  required in the finished  products  and  incorporating chemical agents to improve performance.
