摘要:
A hydrocarbon fraction, preferably in the kerosene boiling range containing a substantial proportion of C.sub.9 + hydrocarbons is contacted with an n-paraffin fraction, such as n-pentane, over a catalyst of acidic functionality, such as Pd/zeolite beta, under conditions of hydrocracking sufficient to convert the feed to lower boiling range materials of high octane number. The n-paraffin cofeed promotes isomerization and suppresses production of n-paraffins.
摘要:
A process is disclosed for operating a refinery gas plant such as the unsaturated gas plant of a catalytic hydrocarbon conversion process that results in a reduction of the corrosive effect of acid gases on the gas plant vessels and equipment. The process comprises contacting acidic hydrocarbon feedstreams to an unsaturated gas plant separator zone with lean acid gas absorbing absorbent in an absorbtion zone comprising at least one liquid absorber bed and one vapor absorber bed. The liquid and vapor absorber beds are located upstream of the separator zone. The feedstreams to the gas plant comprise unstabilized, or wild, liquid gasoline and liquid and vapor output streams from the liquid-vapor separator for inter-stage wet gas compressor of the conversion process main fractionator. Accordingly, these feedstreams are deacidified before separation in the USGP deethanizer-absorber, sponge absorber, and debutanizer. This also eliminates the need for deacidification of the gas plant product stream.
摘要:
Light aliphatic streams containing C.sub.4 - olefins are upgraded to C.sub.5 + gasoline in a two-stage process. In the first stage, olefins are oligomerized to C.sub.5 + olefinic gasoline. Unreacted light aliphatics including ethylene as well as light oligomerization byproducts are then charged to a second stage aromatization zone. Catalysts useful for both stages include medium pore zeolites.
摘要:
Valuable product yield and catalyst useful life are improved by regenerating spent catalyst at temperatures below those maintained in the reaction zone. Relatively cold regenerated catalyst is then preheated and reactor effluent product is quenched by directly contacting the regenerated catalyst with hot reactor effluent product. The quenching step minimizes undesirable thermal cracking of valuable product to C.sub.2 -light gas. The process and apparatus are useful both in aromatization and dehydrogenation of aliphatic hydrocarbons.
摘要:
An integrated process is disclosed for the conversion of C.sub.2 + normal olefins into methyl tertiaryalkyl ethers and high octane gasoline. The process combines olefins interconversion with etherification and conversion of unreacted methanol and olefins in contact with acidic, shape selective metallosilicate zeolite catalyst.
摘要:
This invention relates to process for producing a reformate or gasoline product. The process involves a rapid cycle of reacting hydrocarbon feedstock to form the product and then regenerating the catalyst used in the reaction. The process can be carried out at relatively high liquid hourly space velocities and preferably at relatively low hydrogen to hydrocarbon ratios to produce a reformed product having relatively high liquid yield and hydrogen content.
摘要:
A high solvent power (HSP) crude oil is added to a blend of incompatible oils to proactively address the potential for fouling heat exchange equipment. The HSP component dissolves asphaltene precipitates before coking affects heat exchange surfaces. An HSP oil is also flushed through heat exchange equipment to remove any deposits and/or precipitates on a regular maintenance schedule before coking can affect heat exchange surfaces.

A system for containing and neutralizing a heavy vapor cloud from a potential source of hazardous vapor, such as HF from an HF alkylation unit, comprising a primary containment enclosure for containing and neutralizing a major portion of the vapor in the event of a leak, and a secondary fence line spaced from the primary enclosure for absorbing the vapor as the cloud passes therethrough.
摘要:
A fluid catalytically cracked heavy naphtha containing a substantial proportion of preferably more than 90% C.sub.9 + hydrocarbons is contacted with a reformate heavy naphtha containing a substantial proportion of C.sub.9 + hydrocarbons and, optionally, a benzene-rich stream, over a catalyst of acidic functionality, preferably unsteamed ZSM-5, under transalkylation reaction conditions of temperature and pressure to produce a gasoline boiling range product, boiling below 300.degree. F., having a reduced sulfur content and an increased octane number. In one mode of operation the reformate is cascaded from the reformer as the conditions of reaction are compatible with the conditions established in the reformer.
