The Oil and Petrochemical Laboratory focuses on the characterization, refining, and process evaluation of petroleum-derived materials and petrochemical products. This laboratory supports practical and research training in separation technologies, fuel analysis, and hydrocarbon treatment processes. It is equipped with instruments for distillation, adsorption, and catalysis studies, enabling investigations into crude oil fractionation, reaction kinetics, and quality assessment of fuels and lubricants. Students and researchers perform experiments related to thermophysical properties, viscosity measurement, and compositional analysis of light and heavy hydrocarbon streams. Research projects emphasize the design and optimization of petrochemical processes, catalyst development, and environmentally responsible production. The laboratory serves as an essential center integrating chemical engineering fundamentals with energy and materials innovation in petroleum and gas industries.
