The Humber Refinery is one for the most complex refineries in Europe and its vast range of products includes not only fuel – it produces some 14 million litres a day – but raw materials that are transformed into everything from Electric Vehicles (EV’s) to toiletries. Around 20% of all UK petroleum products come from the Humber Refinery.

As well as keeping the UK moving today, Phillips 66 is keen to capture opportunities in the low-carbon economy of tomorrow and are successfully making high-performing, advanced biofuels from used cooking oil in the refinery’s process units. Humber was the first refinery in the UK to do so and has made significant investment in 2020 trebling its capability. However, and this may seem a paradox, one the most exciting opportunities lies in the electric vehicle revolution.

Humber has developed unique petroleum coke formulations now being used in the batteries of smart phones and electric vehicles globally, this has already captured a carbon reduction of 19%. The refinery is also one step closer to using renewable hydrogen to produce fuels at its Humber Refinery in the U.K. Dubbed Gigastack, the renewable hydrogen project aims to harness offshore wind to power electrolysis and produce hydrogen, a low-emission fuel capable of powering transportation and heavy industry, as well as multiple processes within refining. The project is a collaboration between Phillips 66 Limited, Danish wind farm developer and operator Ørsted, hydrogen systems developer ITM Power and Element Energy, a consultancy. Phillips 66 Humber Refinery has a proud heritage and a very exciting future.

www.icheme.org What is chemical engineering? Modern society relies on the work of chemical, biochemical and process engineers - they help manage resources, protect the environment and control health and safety procedures, while developing the processes that make the products we desire or depend on. Chemical engineering is all about changing raw materials into useful products you use every day in a safe and cost-effective way. For example: petrol, plastics and synthetic fibres such as polyester and nylon, all come from oil. Chemical engineers understand how to alter the chemical, biochemical or physical state of a substance, to create everything from face creams to fuels.

A state-of-the-art wind turbine blade factory and pre-assembly facility was opened in Alexandra Dock, Hull, in September 2016 – a combined investment by Siemens and ABP of £310m.

The first blade delivered is already generating power into the national grid from Race Bank offshore wind farm, off the north Norfolk coast. The Hull factory recently completed its delivery of 47 turbines for Walney Extension in the Irish sea, the world’s largest operational offshore wind farm in the world generating clean electricity for nearly 600,000 homes. Hornsea Project Two, off the East Yorkshire Coast will be its largest project yet with installation expected to begin in 2021. The project will see the factory build significantly larger blades, at 81 metres in length, in order to produce even more energy. With a worldwide installed capacity of 84.5 GW, Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has a presence in more than 90 countries and a team of 25,000 employees worldwide.
