摘要:
A method of upgrading a heteroatom-containing hydrocarbon feed by removing heteroatom contaminants is disclosed. The method includes contacting the heteroatom-containing hydrocarbon feed with an oxidant and an immiscible acid to oxidize the heteroatoms, contacting the oxidized-heteroatom-containing hydrocarbon feed with caustic and a selectivity promoter, and removing the heteroatom contaminants from the heteroatom-containing hydrocarbon feed. The oxidant may be used in the presence of a catalyst.
摘要:
Trace element levels of heavy metals in crude oil are reduced by contacting the crude oil with an oxidizing agent, converting heavy metals into heavy metal cations for subsequent separation from the crude oil. At least a complexing agent is added to convert the heavy metal cations into soluble heavy metal complexes in a water phase, which can be separated from the crude oil, for a treated crude oil having reduced levels of heavy metals. In one embodiment, the complexing agent is selected from the group of metal halides, and the oxidizing agent is selected from the group of organic peracids, inorganic peracids and salts thereof.
摘要:
A reaction system and method for removing heteroatoms from oxidized-heteroatom-containing hydrocarbon streams and products derived therefrom are disclosed. An oxidized-heteroatom-containing hydrocarbon feed is reacted in a reaction system thereby forming non-ionic hydrocarbon products. The products derived therefrom are useful as transportation fuels, lubricants, refinery intermediates, or refinery feeds.
摘要:
The process for the desulfurization of a sulfur-containing hydrocarbon mixture, such as a full-range, hydrotreated diesel oil, is accomplished with an aqueous oxidizing agent in the presence of a catalyst and a co-catalyst, and thereafter selectively removing the oxidized compounds by solvent extraction. Optionally, the foregoing steps are followed by solvent stripping and recovery, and a final polishing step.
摘要:
A process is disclosed for decreasing the level of elemental mercury contained in a liquid hydrocarbon stream by a) contacting the liquid hydrocarbon stream with a water stream containing an oxidizing agent for conversion of at least a portion of the Hg(0) to Hg(II); b) extracting at least a portion of the Hg(II) from the liquid hydrocarbon stream into the water stream, thereby forming a treated liquid hydrocarbon stream and a waste water stream containing water and Hg(II); and c) separating the treated liquid hydrocarbon stream from the waste water stream.
摘要:
A Composition comprising one or more metal hydroxy salts and a matrix, binder or carrier material, wherein the metal hydroxy salt is a compound comprising (a) as metal either (i) one or more divalent metals, at least one of them being selected from the group consisting of Ni, Co, Ca, Zn, Mg, Fe, and Mn, or (ii) one or more trivalent metal(s), (b) framework hydroxide, and (c) a replaceable anion. This composition has various catalytic applications.
摘要:
A method of and system for reducing engine environmental atmospheric pollution emissions from a vehicle having a combustion engine utilizing hydrocarbon fuel for at least one of propulsion and auxiliary electrical power is disclosed. The method basically includes providing an unprocessed bulk fuel storage container and a clean processed fuel tank on the vehicle, supplying the engine for propulsion with fuel from the unprocessed fuel storage container when the vehicle is beyond a predetermined distance from an area having environmental restrictions passing a portion of unprocessed fuel through a desulphurization process to fill a clean fuel storage container while the vehicle is in motion and supplying the combustion engine for one of propulsion and auxiliary electrical power from clean fuel in the processed fuel storage container when the vehicle is within an area having environmental restrictions.
摘要:
A process for upgrading heavy oils and bitumen to a crude oil with properties acceptable as a refinery feedstock includes the steps of solvent de-asphalting by separating the polynuclear aromatics including asphaltenes from the heavy oil or bitumen and contacting the de-asphalted oil with biological and chemical reagents to reduce the concentrations of contaminants so as to render the resulting oil an acceptable feedstock for petroleum refineries.
摘要:
A process for removing halide ions from a hydrocarbon feedstream containing halogenated hydrocarbons wherein the contaminated feedstock is contacted with a solution of a suitable oxidizing acid containing a lanthanide oxide, the acid being present in a concentration of at least about 50 weight percent for a time sufficient to remove substantially all of the halide ion from the hydrocarbon feedstock.
摘要:
HIGH AROMATIC CONTENT MOTOR FUEL IS PRODUCED FROM C5-C8+ NAPHTHA BY SEPARATING THE NAPHTHA INTO A C5-C6 CUT, A SEPARATE C7 CUT AND A C8+ CUT; CATALYTICALLY DEHYDROCYCLIZING THE C7 CUT; CATALYTICALLY REFORMING THE C8+ CUT; AND THEREAFTER COMBINING THE THREE FRACTIONS. IN PREFERRED MODES OF OPERATION, THE C7 CUT IS ALSO SUBJECTED TO CATALYTIC REFORMATION AND THE C5-C6 CUT IS ISOMERIZED BEFORE COMBINATION WITH THE OTHER HYDROCARBON FRACTIONS.
