Expanding feedstock resources for manufacture of vaseline
An alternative to petrolatum in feedstock for manufacture of medicinal Vaseline from Azerbaidzhan crudes was sought. The feedstock, adsorbent, and processing conditions selected increase the yield of Vaseline from 35-40 to 70-75% while reducing formation of difficult to use wastes.
