摘要:
Embodiments of methods for co-production of linear alkylbenzene and biofuel from a natural oil are provided. A method comprises the step of deoxygenating the natural oils to form a stream comprising paraffins. A first portion of the paraffins are dehydrogenated to provide mono-olefins. Then, benzene is alkylated with the mono-olefins under alkylation conditions to provide an alkylation effluent comprising alkylbenzenes and benzene. Thereafter, the alkylbenzenes are isolated to provide the alkylbenzene product. A second portion of the paraffins is processed to form biofuel.

摘要:
Regeneration flue gas streams containing unacceptable levels of CO can be effectively combusted (i.e., for more complete combustion or oxidation of CO to CO2) by contact with a second catalyst undergoing regeneration, for example in a second regenerator. While the second catalyst may also be regenerated by contact with an oxygen-containing gas stream, this second catalyst additionally comprises a noble metal, or is present in combination with a combustion comprising a noble metal. Representative catalysts used in an integrated regeneration process are those used for oxygenate conversion and olefin cracking, both for the purpose of producing light olefins (e.g., ethylene and propylene).

An integrated MTO synthesis and hydrocarbon pyrolysis system is described in which the MTO system and its complementary olefin cracking reactor are combined with a hydrocarbon pyrolysis reactor in a way that facilitates the flexible production of olefins and other petrochemical products, such as butene-1 and MTBE.
摘要:
Processes and systems for utilizing products from DME synthesis in converting oxygenates to olefins are provided that include removing a DME reactor effluent from a DME reactor, wherein the DME effluent includes DME, water, and methanol; separating carbon dioxide gas from the DME reactor effluent in a liquid gas separator to produce a degassed effluent stream. The processes and systems can include feeding the degassed effluent stream to an oxygenate to olefin reactor to produce an olefin containing effluent, wherein the olefin containing effluent further includes oxygenates. Alternatively, the processes and systems can include providing the degassed effluent stream to a DME column to produce a DME feedstock and a solvent stream, wherein the solvent stream includes methanol and water; feeding the DME feedstock to an oxygenate to olefin reactor to produce an olefin containing effluent, wherein the olefin containing effluent further includes oxygenates; and contacting at least a portion of the olefin containing effluent with the solvent stream in a solvent contacting zone to produce an olefin containing raffinate stream and an oxygenate containing extract.
摘要:
A process is presented for producing a purified normal paraffin product stream. The process includes passing a hydrocarbon stream having the desired normal paraffins to an adsorption separation system. A process stream generated from the separation system and having the normal paraffins is passed to an adsorption unit for the selective adsorption of aromatic compounds from the process stream, thereby producing a purified product.
