Three acids Sulfuric Acid Hydroflouric Acid Phosphoric Acid
Three bases Sodium Hydroxide Calcium Hydroxide Potassium Hydroxide
Sulfuric Acid is used as a catalyst in the alkalation reaction section. The alkalation unit in a refinery produces alkylate which is used to give distilled raw gasoline a higher octane rating.
Hydroflouric Acid is also used in a different type of alkalation unit which is currently being phased out due to Hydroflouric Acid dangerous nature.
Phosphoric Acid is used in industrial cooling towers to aid in controlling scale inside piping in cooling water systems.
Sodium Hydroxide is also used in crude oil refinery settings to aid in neutralizing low pH systems in the refinery process .
Calcium hydroxide is used to eliminate moisture in propane systems in the alkalation process.
Potassium hydroxide is used to clean refinery vessel used in the crude refining process.
