The Annual Meeting is the world's premier refining meeting, assembling key executives, decision-makers, and technical experts from refining businesses, technology providers, contracting and consulting firms, and equipment manufacturers around the world. The general session features high profile speakers who will address current issues of importance to the industry. Leading industry experts will share valuable insights on major issues, including energy and environmental initiatives and the latest technical developments impacting the refining and petrochemical industry communities.

Several key Dorf Ketal representatives will be attending the various workshops and association meetings. A featured value message will be Dorf Ketal's introduction of its high temperature, high TAN crude corrosion inhibitor and service program, TANSCIENT™, which has been designed to help refiners take full advantage of opportunity crudes.

TANSCIENT™ is smarter and safer corrosion protection with superior phosphorous efficiency which translates into more controlled corrosion protection and reduced risk in addressing variations in naphthenic acid composition.  TANSCIENT™ offers more effective passivation and ongoing protection with up to 80% less phosphorus than competitor HTCI products. 

Key benefits include:

• Superior thermal stability and oil solubility
• Maximum surface reactivity, more effective protection
• Low acidity, does not require cooled slipstream for injection
• Familiar, easy-to-implement phosphorus-based passivation
• Reduces risk of phosphorus fouling and catalyst impairment
