A processing unit includes a naphtha hydrotreating unit comprising a first divided wall column. The first divided wall column includes a wall dividing a top portion of the first divided wall column, an outlet associated with the second top section of the first divided wall column for recovery of liquid petroleum gas, and an outlet associated with a bottoms portion of the first divided wall column and coupled to a naphtha splitter system. The processing unit also includes a deisopentanizer column coupled to an output of a naphtha splitter of the naphtha splitter system, an isomerization unit coupled to an outlet of the deisopentanizer column, and a second divided wall column. The second divided wall column includes a wall dividing a top portion of the second divided wall column, an inlet coupled to an outlet of a stabilizer column of the isomerization unit, an outlet for recovery of a first isomerate stream, and an outlet associated with a bottoms portion of the second divided wall column for recovery of a second isomerate stream. The processing unit also includes an isomerization reactor coupled between the deisopentanizer column and the stabilizer column.

A valve-tray assembly and method for lighter fluid heavier fluid contact towers. The active area of the tray is constructed with valves having multiple lighter fluid discharge areas facilitating improved mass transfer efficiency. The valves include first and second support legs oriented in line with the heavier fluid flow with both legs and the valve top constructed with apertures wherein the heavier fluid may flow into engagement with the lighter fluid passing from beneath the tray up, through and out of the valve.

Apparatuses and systems for removing heavy hydrocarbons from a solvent stream are disclosed herein. The apparatuses extract heavy hydrocarbons into light hydrocarbons and provide a solvent stream having the heavy hydrocarbons removed. Two water washing steps are used to remove residual solvent from the heavy hydrocarbon solution in light hydrocarbons. In some embodiments, the second water wash is used for processing subsequent batches of the solvent stream. The heavy hydrocarbons and solvent can be recovered and processed further. Methods for removing heavy hydrocarbons from a solvent stream are also disclosed herein.

Embodiments disclose a process for converting gaseous alkanes to higher molecular weight hydrocarbons, olefins or mixtures thereofs wherein a gaseous feed containing alkanes may be reacted with a dry bromine vapor to form alkyl bromides and hydrobromic acid vapor. The mixture of alkyl bromides and hydrobromic acid then may be reacted over a synthetic crystalline alumino-silicate catalyst, such as a ZSM-5 or an X or Y type zeolite, at a temperature of from about 250° C. to about 500° C. so as to form hydrobromic acid vapor and higher molecular weight hydrocarbons, olefins or mixtures thereof. Various methods are disclosed to remove the hydrobromic acid vapor from the higher molecular weight hydrocarbons, olefins or mixtures thereof and to generate bromine from the hydrobromic acid for use in the process.

Process and system that include the conversion of alkyl bromides to higher molecular weight hydrocarbons in circulating catalyst reactor-regenerator systems. Alkyl bromides may be reacted over a catalyst in at least one conversion reactor to produce at least an effluent stream comprising higher molecular weight hydrocarbons and hydrogen bromide. A portion of the catalyst may be removed from the conversion reactor. The portion of the catalyst may be contacted with a stripping gas to displace hydrocarbons from the portion of the catalyst. The portion of the catalyst may be contacted a first inert gas. The portion of the catalyst may be contacted with oxygen to form a regenerated catalyst by removal of coke. The regenerated catalyst may be contacted with a second inert gas. At least a portion of the regenerated catalyst may be introduced into the conversion reactor.

A chemical-process system includes a chemical-process column and a support disposed on an interior of the chemical-process column. A tray is disposed on a top surface of the support. A bolt is disposed through the tray and a clamp is disposed below the tray. The clamp has a notch formed therein for receiving a head region of the bolt. The clamp engages a bottom surface of the tray and a bottom surface of the support. The bolt is able to angularly displace with respect to at least one of the tray and the clamp.

Apparatuses, systems and methods for producing Pips stream for manufacturing catalytic C5 hydrocarbon resins containing all the key reactive monomers that are already present in the C5 fraction of the pyrolysis gasoline, which is otherwise lost with the crude isoprene stream, are disclosed herein. Embodiments of the invention are directed to producing a hydrocarbon resin grade DCPD stream consisting of dimers and codimers of isoprene which are of value in manufacturing thermal hydrocarbon resins, either polymer grade isoprene and gasoline quality raffinate (free or sulfur and acetylenes) or a relatively small crude isoprene stream with maximum utilization of isoprene by moving some of the isoprene to a DCPD stream used to manufacture thermal hydrocarbon resins.
