The role of the process engineer working with hydroprocessing, both hydrotreating and hydrocracking, is becoming increasingly more important, as the refiner strives for optimal solutions to obtain high-quality fuel products. To be able to optimize the yield and quality of the products, it is crucial to understand the theory and practice of hydroprocessing. Topsoe offers you our popular intensive hydroprocessing course specifically designed for refinery engineers.
