1. Location: Industrial oil-to-fuel facilities should be located close to the source of raw materials and transportation hubs, but far from residential or sensitive areas.
2. Safety: Safety should be the top priority in the design of industrial oil-to-fuel facilities. The facility should be designed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, or other hazardous events.
3. Environmental regulations: Industrial oil-to-fuel facilities should comply with all environmental regulations related to air, water, and waste management.
4. Capacity: The facility should be designed to meet the desired production capacity while allowing for potential expansion in the future.
5. Process flow: The design should optimize the flow of materials and minimize the risk of contamination.
6. Equipment selection: The selection of equipment should be based on performance, efficiency, and reliability.
7. Maintenance: The facility should be designed with ease of maintenance in mind, including accessible equipment and systems.
8. Energy efficiency: The design should aim to reduce energy consumption through the use of efficient equipment and processes.
9. Automation and control: The facility should be designed with an advanced automation and control system to optimize resource utilization and reduce operational costs.
10. Life cycle cost: The design should consider the entire life cycle cost of the facility, including construction, operation, and maintenance.
