Non-energy refineries refer to those plants that produce non-energy products from crude oil. These fall into two categories, which are:
-
The Lube Oil Refinery
-
The Petrochemical Refinery
Both of these types of refineries have already been mentioned in Chapter 1 of this Handbook. This chapter then provides some further details on these two important refining aspects of crude oil.
