Abstract:
A supported and sulphur-containing catalyst is described, comprising; a porous support constituted by an organic-inorganic hybrid material for which the covalent bond between the organic and inorganic phases conforms to the formula M-O—Z—R where M represents at least one metal constituting the inorganic phase, Z at least one heteroelement from among phosphorus and silicon and R an organic fragment, at least one metal of group VIB and/or of group VB and/or of group VIII. The invention also relates to the use of this catalyst for the hydrorefining and the hydroconversion of hydrocarbon-containing feedstocks such as petroleum fractions, fractions from coal or biomass or hydrocarbons produced from natural gas.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for the treatment of heavy petroleum feedstocks in order to produce a gas oil fraction having a sulphur content of less than 50 ppm and generally 10 ppm which comprises the following stages: e) mild hydrocracking in a catalyst fixed bed, f) separation of the hydrogen sulphide, of a distillate cut including a gas oil fraction and of a fraction which is heavier than the gas oil, g) hydrotreating, by contact with at least one catalyst, of at least a portion of the distillate cut obtained in stage b) including the gas oil fraction, as a mixture with a feedstock resulting from a crude or refined renewable source, h) separation of a gas oil cut comprising less than 50 ppm of sulphur. Advantageously, the heavy fraction is sent for catalytic cracking. Preferably, the process is carried out with makeup hydrogen introduced in stage c) and very advantageously all the makeup hydrogen for the process is introduced in stage c). The invention also relates to a plant which can be used for implementing this process.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a hydrotreating method (HDT) using two plants working under different operating conditions with an intermediate stripping for co-treating a mixture made up of oils of vegetable or animal origin and petroleum cuts (gas oil cuts (GO) and middle distillates) in order to produce gas oil fuel bases meeting specifications. The first plant (HDT1) is more particularly dedicated to the reactions concerning oils of vegetable or animal origin in comixture while pretreating the hydrocarbon feed, whereas the second plant (HDS2) works under more severe conditions to obtain diesel fuel according to standards, in particular in terms of effluent sulfur content, density and cold properties. The process economy, the activity and the stability of the catalyst of the second plant are greatly improved by the intermediate stripping.
