Merox is an
acronym for
mercaptan oxidation. It is a
proprietary catalytic chemical process developed by UOP used in oil
refineries and
natural gas processing...
- ("CCR") or
branch structures ("Penex"). It
removes harmful sulphur in the
Merox system, with the NHT and by SCANfining. In detail, the

Merox processing of gasoline; the

October 1969, the
refinery was commissioned. In 1971, the
naphtha merox unit was
modified to

distillation units (often
referred to as
condensate splitters) and five

attempted on-board
desulfurization (removing mercaptans) of

recovered streams of propane,
butanes and C5+ may be "sweetened" in a

Other projects included a
residual upgrading project in 1980, a
