    摘要: A dynamic water/oil demulsification system for a gas-oil separation plant (GOSP) includes: an in-line microwave treatment subsystem upstream of one or more of each of a dehydrator vessel, desalter vessel and/or water/oil separator vessel, each of which vessels receives a water-oil emulsion; sensors that monitor and transmit data corresponding to properties of the water-oil emulsion in or downstream of the respective vessel(s); and a processor/controller associated with the in-line microwave treatment subsystem that initiates the application of microwave energy to the emulsion(s) based on the data from the sensors.

    摘要: With an aim to optimize propylene production, petroleum oil is catalytically cracked by contacting the oil with catalyst mixture consisting of a base cracking catalyst containing an stable Y-type zeolite and small amounts of rare-earth metal oxide, and an additive containing a shape-selective zeolite, in an up-flow type fluid catalytic cracking apparatus having a regeneration zone, a separation zone, and a stripping zone. According to this fluid catalytic cracking process, the production of light-fraction olefins such as propylene is maximized by applying appropriate process control, monitoring, and optimizing systems. The present invention provides mathematical process models, including: neural networks, statistical models and finite impulse models. These various mathematical process models are used in conjunction with advanced controllers and optimizing routines to calculate optimal settings for various process parameters. A microwave based system can also be employed for optimizing the performance of a stripping zone, which further optimizes catalyst regeneration. Process model and historical data to test a predictive system can provide early warning of potential performance degradation and equipment failure in the FCC unit, which decreases overall operating costs and increases plant safety.

    摘要: Heavy crude oils having high sulfur content and viscosities are upgraded by a hydrodesulfurization (HDS) process that includes microwave irradiation of a mixture of the sour heavy crude oil with at least one catalyst and optionally, one or more sensitizers, and irradiation in the presence of hydrogen. The process is also adapted to microwave treatment of hard to break emulsions, either above ground or below ground where water-in-oil emulsions are initially formed, followed by the catalytic hydrodesulfurization promoted by application of further microwave energy to the demulsified crude oil stream.

    摘要: Apparatus for enhancing combustion of an undesired chemical to minimize the formation of smoke during operation of a flare stack for the discharge of a flare feedstream includes a plurality of high-pressure air nozzles spaced apart below and around the periphery of the stack outlet. Each nozzle is directed toward the stack outlet and in the direction of the feedstream's movement. High-pressure air from the nozzles forms a plurality of high-velocity air jets to produce a moving air mass that draws additional atmospheric air into the air mass moving toward the stack outlet to enhance combustion of the flare feedstream. Analytical means determine the stoichiometric oxygen requirements, and an air-flow valve controls the flow rate of the high-pressure air to the nozzles. Air flow control means adjust the mass flow-rate of high-pressure air based on minimum oxygen requirements determined by the analytical means, whereby the oxygen content of the air flow at the stack outlet meets or exceeds the requirement for the complete combustion of the feedstream.
