A surreal image of a gasoline key, sculpted entirely out of liquid gasoline, with a thick, oily, and dark amber texture. The key retains its shape, but the gasoline appears to be flowing and dripping, with a glossy, sticky appearance. The surface of the key is reflective, showing the oily sheen typical of gasoline. The liquid looks dense and viscous, and small droplets of gasoline are splattering from the edges. The background is a blurred industrial setting, with dim, warm lighting that emphasizes the smooth, thick texture of the gasoline.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity). The digester is 5 meters long and 1.80 meters in diameter, made of carbon steel, with Stainless Steel 304 blades. It includes a Stainless Steel piston driven by a 7.5 kW electric motor. • 3-2: Primary Heating: This melts the bitumen and improves pumpability through pipes and pumps. • 3-3: Efficiency Enhancement: To increase melting efficiency, Gas Oil is added to the primary heating basin at a ratio of 1:5 per ton of solid raw material entering the basin (this ratio decreases when using liquid raw bitumen). o 3-2-1: Primary Melting Basin (TK-01): Raw material is heated in a concrete tank (25m L x 5m W x 3m H) with a maximum storage capacity of 300 tons.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity). The digester is 5 meters long and 1.80 meters in diameter, made of carbon steel, with Stainless Steel 304 blades. It includes a Stainless Steel piston driven by a 7.5 kW electric motor. • 3-2: Primary Heating: This melts the bitumen and improves pumpability through pipes and pumps. • 3-3: Efficiency Enhancement: To increase melting efficiency, Gas Oil is added to the primary heating basin at a ratio of 1:5 per ton of solid raw material entering the basin (this ratio decreases when using liquid raw bitumen). o 3-2-1: Primary Melting Basin (TK-01): Raw material is heated in a concrete tank (25m L x 5m W x 3m H) with a maximum storage capacity of 300 tons.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity). The digester is 5 meters long and 1.80 meters in diameter, made of carbon steel, with Stainless Steel 304 blades. It includes a Stainless Steel piston driven by a 7.5 kW electric motor. • 3-2: Primary Heating: This melts the bitumen and improves pumpability through pipes and pumps. • 3-3: Efficiency Enhancement: To increase melting efficiency, Gas Oil is added to the primary heating basin at a ratio of 1:5 per ton of solid raw material entering the basin (this ratio decreases when using liquid raw bitumen). o 3-2-1: Primary Melting Basin (TK-01): Raw material is heated in a concrete tank (25m L x 5m W x 3m H) with a maximum storage capacity of 300 tons.

Alumina (Al2O3): Enhances the cracking of chemical bonds in heavy bitumen chains and increases Gas Oil extraction yield. 2. Manganese Dioxide (MnO2): Accelerates the reaction, reduces reaction time, and acts as a gasoline improver. 3. Silicon Dioxide (SiO2): Increases acceleration and reduces reaction time. 4. Iron Oxides (Fe2O): Accelerates the reaction, prevents pipe corrosion, and stops sulfur and wax from sticking to pipes and pumps. Weight Ratios (WT/WT) to Produce One Barrel (200 Liters) of Catalyst: 1. Alumina: Varies by feed: 2-2.5% for Bitumen / 4-5% for Vacuum Residue (VR) / 2-2.5% for Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO). To increase Gas Oil/Diesel (Light fuel) yield, Alumina can be added up to a maximum of 10%. 2. Manganese Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for VR and Bitumen. 3. Iron Oxides: 2-2.5% across all feeds. 4. Silicon Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for Bitumen and VR. 5. Remaining Volume: Filled with C-oil. Note: One barrel (200 Liters) of this mixture is added for every 5 tons of HFO, VR, or Bitumen. Manufacturing Mechanism: All components are placed in a tank, initially mixed with water, and heated to 80-120°C with continuous mixing (20-30 RPM). Once foam is generated, the product is allowed to cool to 80°C. The heating process up to 120°C is repeated 3 or 4 times until foaming ceases. Finally, the temperature is raised to 150°C, and the mixture is topped off to 200 liters using C-oil. To further improve light compound specifications, Zinc Oxide (300 grams) is mixed with 20 kg of Bentonite in C-oil. This is added alongside the catalyst at a ratio of 1/5 barrel of catalyst added to the reactor.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards.

Alumina (Al2O3): Enhances the cracking of chemical bonds in heavy bitumen chains and increases Gas Oil extraction yield. 2. Manganese Dioxide (MnO2): Accelerates the reaction, reduces reaction time, and acts as a gasoline improver. 3. Silicon Dioxide (SiO2): Increases acceleration and reduces reaction time. 4. Iron Oxides (Fe2O): Accelerates the reaction, prevents pipe corrosion, and stops sulfur and wax from sticking to pipes and pumps. Weight Ratios (WT/WT) to Produce One Barrel (200 Liters) of Catalyst: 1. Alumina: Varies by feed: 2-2.5% for Bitumen / 4-5% for Vacuum Residue (VR) / 2-2.5% for Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO). To increase Gas Oil/Diesel (Light fuel) yield, Alumina can be added up to a maximum of 10%. 2. Manganese Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for VR and Bitumen. 3. Iron Oxides: 2-2.5% across all feeds. 4. Silicon Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for Bitumen and VR. 5. Remaining Volume: Filled with C-oil. Note: One barrel (200 Liters) of this mixture is added for every 5 tons of HFO, VR, or Bitumen. Manufacturing Mechanism: All components are placed in a tank, initially mixed with water, and heated to 80-120°C with continuous mixing (20-30 RPM). Once foam is generated, the product is allowed to cool to 80°C. The heating process up to 120°C is repeated 3 or 4 times until foaming ceases. Finally, the temperature is raised to 150°C, and the mixture is topped off to 200 liters using C-oil. To further improve light compound specifications, Zinc Oxide (300 grams) is mixed with 20 kg of Bentonite in C-oil. This is added alongside the catalyst at a ratio of 1/5 barrel of catalyst added to the reactor.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1.

Alumina (Al2O3): Enhances the cracking of chemical bonds in heavy bitumen chains and increases Gas Oil extraction yield. 2. Manganese Dioxide (MnO2): Accelerates the reaction, reduces reaction time, and acts as a gasoline improver. 3. Silicon Dioxide (SiO2): Increases acceleration and reduces reaction time. 4. Iron Oxides (Fe2O): Accelerates the reaction, prevents pipe corrosion, and stops sulfur and wax from sticking to pipes and pumps. Weight Ratios (WT/WT) to Produce One Barrel (200 Liters) of Catalyst: 1. Alumina: Varies by feed: 2-2.5% for Bitumen / 4-5% for Vacuum Residue (VR) / 2-2.5% for Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO). To increase Gas Oil/Diesel (Light fuel) yield, Alumina can be added up to a maximum of 10%. 2. Manganese Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for VR and Bitumen. 3. Iron Oxides: 2-2.5% across all feeds. 4. Silicon Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for Bitumen and VR. 5. Remaining Volume: Filled with C-oil. Note: One barrel (200 Liters) of this mixture is added for every 5 tons of HFO, VR, or Bitumen. Manufacturing Mechanism: All components are placed in a tank, initially mixed with water, and heated to 80-120°C with continuous mixing (20-30 RPM). Once foam is generated, the product is allowed to cool to 80°C. The heating process up to 120°C is repeated 3 or 4 times until foaming ceases. Finally, the temperature is raised to 150°C, and the mixture is topped off to 200 liters using C-oil. To further improve light compound specifications, Zinc Oxide (300 grams) is mixed with 20 kg of Bentonite in C-oil. This is added alongside the catalyst at a ratio of 1/5 barrel of catalyst added to the reactor.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity). The digester is 5 meters long and 1.80 meters in diameter, made of carbon steel, with Stainless Steel 304 blades. It includes a Stainless Steel piston driven by a 7.5 kW electric motor. • 3-2: Primary Heating: This melts the bitumen and improves pumpability through pipes and pumps. • 3-3: Efficiency Enhancement: To increase melting efficiency, Gas Oil is added to the primary heating basin at a ratio of 1:5 per ton of solid raw material entering the basin (this ratio decreases when using liquid raw bitumen). o 3-2-1: Primary Melting Basin (TK-01): Raw material is heated in a concrete tank (25m L x 5m W x 3m H) with a maximum storage capacity of 300 tons.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1.

However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity).

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity).

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2. Storage Stage The raw materials are stored in designated yards to ensure a sufficient inventory for continuous, uninterrupted production for no less than 7 working days. 3. Raw Material Preparation and Primary Heating Stage Raw materials are fed into the plant via hydraulic lifts. This stage includes: • 3-1: Crushing and Digestion: Solid raw materials from the quarries are broken down and digested using a digester (SH-01) equipped with double blades driven by hydraulic motors (22.5 kW capacity). The digester is 5 meters long and 1.80 meters in diameter, made of carbon steel, with Stainless Steel 304 blades. It includes a Stainless Steel piston driven by a 7.5 kW electric motor. • 3-2: Primary Heating: This melts the bitumen and improves pumpability through pipes and pumps. • 3-3: Efficiency Enhancement: To increase melting efficiency, Gas Oil is added to the primary heating basin at a ratio of 1:5 per ton of solid raw material entering the basin (this ratio decreases when using liquid raw bitumen). o 3-2-1: Primary Melting Basin (TK-01): Raw material is heated in a concrete tank (25m L x 5m W x 3m H) with a maximum storage capacity of 300 tons.

Weight Ratios (WT/WT) to Produce One Barrel (200 Liters) of Catalyst: 1. Alumina: Varies by feed: 2-2.5% for Bitumen / 4-5% for Vacuum Residue (VR) / 2-2.5% for Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO). To increase Gas Oil/Diesel (Light fuel) yield, Alumina can be added up to a maximum of 10%. 2. Manganese Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for VR and Bitumen. 3. Iron Oxides: 2-2.5% across all feeds. 4. Silicon Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for Bitumen and VR. 5. Remaining Volume: Filled with C-oil. Note: One barrel (200 Liters) of this mixture is added for every 5 tons of HFO, VR, or Bitumen. Manufacturing Mechanism: All components are placed in a tank, initially mixed with water, and heated to 80-120°C with continuous mixing (20-30 RPM). Once foam is generated, the product is allowed to cool to 80°C. The heating process up to 120°C is repeated 3 or 4 times until foaming ceases. Finally, the temperature is raised to 150°C, and the mixture is topped off to 200 liters using C-oil. To further improve light compound specifications, Zinc Oxide (300 grams) is mixed with 20 kg of Bentonite in C-oil. This is added alongside the catalyst at a ratio of 1/5 barrel of catalyst added to the reactor.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1. Extraction Stage The raw material (solid or liquid) is extracted from quarries designated by the Geological Survey Authority using specialized mechanical equipment. It is stored in stocks or special basins for solid materials, then transported to the refinery site using specialized transport vehicles of various capacities. 2.

Specialized Bitumen Refining Plant Governorate: Anbar / Hit District Production Capacity: ( ) Tons/Day The city of Hit in the Anbar Governorate is considered one of the most famous areas in the world for its natural "bitumen springs," which have been used for thousands of years (dating back to the Babylonian and Assyrian eras). However, processing this bitumen for modern use requires technical steps to transform it from a raw material into a viable product for construction or industrial applications. Bitumen emerges from these springs as a highly viscous liquid mixed with sulfurous water, salts, and mud impurities. This "Natural Asphalt" differs from petroleum bitumen produced in refineries, and it can also appear in the form of rocky or spongy blocks mixed with mud. To obtain industrially usable products from this bitumen, specifically for: 1. Waterproofing (Felt/Membranes): Considered one of the best coating materials for building foundations to prevent moisture leakage due to its high resistance to hydrolysis. 2. Road Paving: Mixed with gravel and sand to produce asphalt concrete. It is characterized by exceptionally high cohesive strength compared to industrial bitumen. The natural bitumen from these springs must undergo several fundamental processing stages to become industrially viable: 1. Collection and Sedimentation: Bitumen is collected from the springs or quarry sites and left in designated basins to allow the sulfurous water to naturally separate (due to density differences). 2. Primary Heating: The raw bitumen is placed in large boilers to: a. Evaporate the remaining water. b. Reduce viscosity for easier handling. 3. Filtration and Purification: The heated bitumen is screened to remove solid impurities such as gravel, dirt, and suspended organic matter. 4. Secondary Heating and Cooking: The temperature of the bitumen is raised, improving agents are added, and it is prepared for the vacuum distillation process. 5. Vacuum Distillation: The distillation process is conducted under low pressure (vacuum pressure), which allows for: a. The separation of light oils and volatile substances at lower temperatures. b. The production of highly pure "Hard Asphalt," which is highly demanded in the construction industry. ________________________________________ Plant Components and Operational Stages The specialized bitumen plant for processing raw natural bitumen (in both liquid and solid states) consists of a range of specialized equipment designed according to the latest international standards. This equipment aligns with the technical and engineering requirements for bitumen products, complies with Iraqi standard specifications, and adheres to environmental considerations in the Anbar Governorate. 1.

Alumina (Al2O3): Enhances the cracking of chemical bonds in heavy bitumen chains and increases Gas Oil extraction yield. 2. Manganese Dioxide (MnO2): Accelerates the reaction, reduces reaction time, and acts as a gasoline improver. 3. Silicon Dioxide (SiO2): Increases acceleration and reduces reaction time. 4. Iron Oxides (Fe2O): Accelerates the reaction, prevents pipe corrosion, and stops sulfur and wax from sticking to pipes and pumps. Weight Ratios (WT/WT) to Produce One Barrel (200 Liters) of Catalyst: 1. Alumina: Varies by feed: 2-2.5% for Bitumen / 4-5% for Vacuum Residue (VR) / 2-2.5% for Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO). To increase Gas Oil/Diesel (Light fuel) yield, Alumina can be added up to a maximum of 10%. 2. Manganese Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for VR and Bitumen. 3. Iron Oxides: 2-2.5% across all feeds. 4. Silicon Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for Bitumen and VR. 5. Remaining Volume: Filled with C-oil. Note: One barrel (200 Liters) of this mixture is added for every 5 tons of HFO, VR, or Bitumen. Manufacturing Mechanism: All components are placed in a tank, initially mixed with water, and heated to 80-120°C with continuous mixing (20-30 RPM). Once foam is generated, the product is allowed to cool to 80°C. The heating process up to 120°C is repeated 3 or 4 times until foaming ceases. Finally, the temperature is raised to 150°C, and the mixture is topped off to 200 liters using C-oil. To further improve light compound specifications, Zinc Oxide (300 grams) is mixed with 20 kg of Bentonite in C-oil. This is added alongside the catalyst at a ratio of 1/5 barrel of catalyst added to the reactor.

A surreal image of a gasoline key, sculpted entirely out of liquid gasoline, with a thick, oily, and dark amber texture. The key retains its shape, but the gasoline appears to be flowing and dripping, with a glossy, sticky appearance. The surface of the key is reflective, showing the oily sheen typical of gasoline. The liquid looks dense and viscous, and small droplets of gasoline are splattering from the edges. The background is a blurred industrial setting, with dim, warm lighting that emphasizes the smooth, thick texture of the gasoline.

Alumina (Al2O3): Enhances the cracking of chemical bonds in heavy bitumen chains and increases Gas Oil extraction yield. 2. Manganese Dioxide (MnO2): Accelerates the reaction, reduces reaction time, and acts as a gasoline improver. 3. Silicon Dioxide (SiO2): Increases acceleration and reduces reaction time. 4. Iron Oxides (Fe2O): Accelerates the reaction, prevents pipe corrosion, and stops sulfur and wax from sticking to pipes and pumps. Weight Ratios (WT/WT) to Produce One Barrel (200 Liters) of Catalyst: 1. Alumina: Varies by feed: 2-2.5% for Bitumen / 4-5% for Vacuum Residue (VR) / 2-2.5% for Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO). To increase Gas Oil/Diesel (Light fuel) yield, Alumina can be added up to a maximum of 10%. 2. Manganese Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for VR and Bitumen. 3. Iron Oxides: 2-2.5% across all feeds. 4. Silicon Dioxide: 2-2.5% for HFO / 4-5% for Bitumen and VR. 5. Remaining Volume: Filled with C-oil. Note: One barrel (200 Liters) of this mixture is added for every 5 tons of HFO, VR, or Bitumen. Manufacturing Mechanism: All components are placed in a tank, initially mixed with water, and heated to 80-120°C with continuous mixing (20-30 RPM). Once foam is generated, the product is allowed to cool to 80°C. The heating process up to 120°C is repeated 3 or 4 times until foaming ceases. Finally, the temperature is raised to 150°C, and the mixture is topped off to 200 liters using C-oil. To further improve light compound specifications, Zinc Oxide (300 grams) is mixed with 20 kg of Bentonite in C-oil. This is added alongside the catalyst at a ratio of 1/5 barrel of catalyst added to the reactor.
