Overview: Located in Houston, Texas, the Texas Petrochemicals Corporation is one of the largest manufacturers of an emission-reducing octane booster for gasoline. TPC utilizes a boiler system to produce steam that drives two turbines. One turbine powers a generator that produces electricity and the other drives a compressor used in the distillation process. Replacement of the faulty compressor turbine, along with the reconfiguration of the steam and cooling systems, improved the effectiveness of both systems.
