Small oil refining equipment is used to refine and purify crude oils into different grades of refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, etc. These devices can be found in refineries, chemical plants, and other industrial settings where the production or purification of these fuels is required.

1. Crude Oil Separator: This device separates water from crude oil using centrifugal force.

2. Fractionating Tower: A tower that uses heat and pressure differences to separate components of crude oil based on their boiling points.

3. Hydrocracking Unit: A type of refinery unit that reduces the molecular weight of hydrocarbons through hydrogenation.

   

4. Catalytic Reforming Unit: Refines heavy distillates into lighter fractions for use as automotive fuels.

5. Alkylation Unit: Converts straight-run naphtha into aromatic hydrocarbons like benzene and toluene.

6. Deasphalting Unit: Removes asphaltene (a solid residue) from crude oil.

   

7. Vacuum Distillation Units: Used to remove light non-aromatics and produce high-octane gasolines.

8. Desulfurization Units: Remove sulfur compounds from petroleum products.

9. Deoxygenation Units: Remove oxygen atoms from hydrocarbon molecules.

   

10. Wax Extractor: Extracts paraffin wax from heavy crude oils for lubricants or other applications.

These units often require careful operation and regular maintenance due to the corrosive nature of petroleum materials and the potentially explosive nature of crude oil. They are typically controlled by sophisticated instrumentation systems to ensure safety and efficiency.
