- Company Profile:
A refining process that uses hydrogen and catalysts with relatively low temperatures and high pressures for converting middle boiling or residual material to high octane gasoline, reformer charge stock, jet fuel, and /or high grade fuel oil. The process uses one or more catalysts, depending on product output, and can handle high sulphur feed stocks without prior desulfurization.
Industry:Energy
Compensation received by the buyer when the delivery terms of the contract cannot be met by the seller.
Industry:Energy
A refining process for treating petroleum fractions from atmospheric or vacuum distillation units (e.g., naphthas, middle distillates, reformer feeds, residual fueloil, and heavy gas oil) and other petroleum (e.g., cat cracked naphtha, coker naphtha, gas oil, etc.) in the presence of catalysts and substantial quantities of hydrogen. Hydrotreating includes desulfurization, removal of substances (e.g., nitrogen compounds) that deactivate catalysts, conversion of olefins to paraffins to reduce gum formation in gasoline, and other processes to upgrade the quality of the fractions.
Industry:Energy
A measure of the number of energy-consuming units, or the amount of service or output, for which energy inputs are required.
Industry:Energy
A refining process using controlled heat and pressure with catalysts to rearrange certain hydrocarbon molecules, there by converting paraffinic and naphthenic type hydrocarbons (e.g., low octane gasoline boiling range fractions) into petrochemical feedstocks and higher octane stocks suitable for blending into finished gasoline. Catalytic reforming is reported in two categories. They are:
*Low Pressure. A processing unit operating at less than 225 pounds per square inch gauge (PSIG) measured at the outlet separator.
*High pressure. A processing unit operating at either equal to or greater than 225 pounds per square inch gauge (PSIG) measured at the outlet separator.
Industry:Energy
The time period during which flow of electricity is measured (usually in 15-, 30-, or 60-minute increments.)
Industry:Energy
Refers to the un-encapsulated semi-conductor components of the module that convert the solar energy to electricity.
Industry:Energy
Having a metre to measure peak demand (in addition to total consumption) during a billing period. Demand is not usually metered for other energy sources.
Industry:Energy
Cells shipped to non-photovoltaic original equipment manufacturers such as boat manufacturers, car manufacturers, etc.
Industry:Energy
The planning, implementation, and monitoring of utility activities designed to encourage consumers to modify patterns of electricity usage, including the timing and level of electricity demand. It refers to only energy and load-shape modifying activities that are undertaken in response to utility-administered programs. It does not refer to energy and load-shaped changes arising from the normal operation of the marketplace or from government-mandated energy-efficiency standards. Demand-Side Management covers the complete range of load-shape objectives, including strategic conservation and load management, as well as strategic load growth.
