摘要:
An elongate reaction vessel and process includes at least two stages in the vertical direction in which an endothermic or exothermic catalytic reaction is carried out and comprises: a catalytic reaction zone (12a, 12b) per stage (6, 7); introducing (2) a reaction fluid to a stage adapted for transverse motion of the fluid across the whole vertical extent of the reaction zone; introducing and extracting the catalyst; a heat exchanger (5a) for reaction fluids located inside the vessel between two successive reaction zones; means (6) for transporting reaction fluids from one stage to another preferably connected to the exchanger of the stage under consideration and to the inlet for reaction fluids of the subsequent stage; and means for recovering reaction fluids downstream of the last stage. The temperature variation in each zone and the temperature level are respectively adjusted by the thickness of each zone and by heat exchange.
摘要:
A steam cracking process and facility is described which comprises injection of erosive powder to effect at least partial decoking of transfer line exchangers without interrupting the steam cracking stream. The powder, preferably injected just upstream of the transfer line exchangers (TLE) (4), is separated from the cracked gases in primary gas/solid separators (5), temporarily stored in receiving drums at a controlled temperature and evacuated to a common powder storage and/or treatment module by pneumatic transfer by means of a relatively low flow of uncondensable gas. The process and facility can be used to collect solid fragments generated by injection of chemical compounds which are catalysts for the gasification of coke by steam.

The invention concerns a process for converting a stream of natural or associated gas into liquid fractions, comprising: a) a step for converting said stream of gas into a synthesis gas SG; b) a step FT for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis to convert the SG into liquid fractions; c) a step for fractionating the effluents from the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis into at least one relatively heavy fraction comprising waxes with a boiling point of 565° C. or more and at least one relatively light fraction; d) a step HCKI for isomerization hydrocracking of the relatively heavy fraction, in which at least 75% by weight of the fraction of the feed with a boiling point of more than 565° C. is converted into compounds boiling below 565° C.; e) at least one step for mixing at least the effluents from step HCKI (step d)), the light fraction from step c) and a crude oil P, to thereby produce an oil P*.

A process for pre-refining a crude oil P is described in which P is fractionated into several fractions, some of which are typically hydrotreated, hydrocracked or hydroconverted, then said fractions are re-composed and at least three pre-refined oils Pa, Pb, Pc are produced, Pc being a residual asphaltenic oil and Pa and Pb being two non asphaltenic oils having different ratios R wherein: R=(0.9N+0.5VGO+)/(MD+0.1VGO+), in which: N=naphtha [30° C./170° C.]; MD=middle distillates: [170° C./260° C.] and VGO+=fraction boiling above 360° C.R translates as the relative potential of a non residual oil to be converted into gasoline with respect to middle distillates during its subsequent refining.
