摘要:
Solvent deasphalting (SDA) is used to prepare a heavy hydrocarbon feed for further upgrading. An overhead deasphalted oil (DAO) stream is prepared for catalytic upgrading and an asphaltene stream is prepared for slurry hydrocracking (SHC). SHC product can be further deasphalted and the DAO can be separated from solvent in an upstream extraction column.

摘要:
Integrated slurry hydrocracking (SHC) and solvent deasphalting (SDA) methods for making slurry hydrocracking (SHC) distillates are disclosed. Representative methods involve passing a slurry comprising a vacuum column resid, a recycled, deasphalted oil obtained from SDA, and a solid particulate through an SHC reaction zone in the presence of hydrogen to obtain the SHC distillate. Fractionation or distillation in the SHC product recovery section yields a combined SHC gas oil/SHC pitch stream that is sent to SDA. In a representative embodiment, vacuum distillation in the SHC product recovery is avoided, thereby eliminating equipment that is often most susceptible to fouling.

An apparatus is disclosed for converting heavy hydrocarbon feed into lighter hydrocarbon products. The heavy hydrocarbon feed is slurried with a particulate solid material to form a heavy hydrocarbon slurry and hydrocracked in a slurry hydrocracking unit to produce vacuum gas oil (VGO) and pitch. A first vacuum column separates VGO from pitch, and a second vacuum column further separates VGO from pitch. As much as 15 wt-% of VGO can be recovered by the second vacuum column and recycled to the slurry hydrocracking unit. A pitch composition is obtained which can be made into particles and transported without stickin together.
摘要:
A separation process with a modified enhanced hot separator system is described. The process eliminates undesirable entrainment while allowing for enhanced stripping of the net liquid only. The modified enhanced hot separator system combines a hot separator with a hot stripping column.
摘要:
Disclosed is an apparatus and process for recovering heat from multiple hot process streams without multiplying instrumentation. Each hot process stream is indirectly heat exchanged with a water circuit which leaves and feeds a steam drum. Heat is added to the steam drum through the addition of water heated outside of the steam drum. The heated liquid and vapor water is heated in heat exchangers decoupled from the steam drum. The water circuits are arranged in parallel with each other and feed a single steam drum to provide a steam product of a desired pressure for which only one set of instrumentation is needed.

One exemplary embodiment can be a process. The process can include contacting one or more contaminated hydrocarbons with a hydrogen gas stream in a flash feed separator to generate a first liquid stream, stripping the first liquid stream to generate a residue stream, and separating the residue stream in a film generating evaporator to obtain a recovered distillate.

Embodiments of processes and an apparatus for generating steam are provided. The process comprises the steps of indirectly heating water in a first thermosyphon heat exchanger with a first hot stream to form a first stream of heated water comprising steam. The first stream of heated water is fluidly communicated to a first steam drum via natural circulation. Water is indirectly heated in a second thermosyphon heat exchanger with a second hot stream from the process unit to form a second stream of heated water comprising steam. The second stream of heated water is fluidly communicated to the first steam drum via natural circulation. Steam is recovered from the first steam drum.
