    Abstract: Hydrodeoxygenating a biorenewable feed that is concentrated in free fatty acids with 10-13 carbon atoms at a moderate hydrodeoxygenation ratio that is less than the ratio of hydrodeoxygenation utilized for traditional biorenewable feeds such as vegetable oil or even mineral feedstocks, normal paraffins in the range desired by the detergents industry can be produced. Either hydroisomerization or an iso-normal separation can be performed to provide green fuel streams. Two reactors are proposed, one for hydrodeoxygenation of the biorenewable feed that is concentrated in free fatty acids with 10-13 carbon atoms and the other for a traditional biorenewable feed or even a mineral feed operated at a higher deoxygenation ratio.

    Abstract: Processes for co-processing a naphtha stream with a light cycle oil stream are disclosed. The processes include hydrocracking the light cycle oil stream under hydrocracking conditions to provide a hydrocracked effluent stream. A naphtha stream is hydrotreated under hydrotreating conditions to provide a hydrotreated effluent stream. The hydrocracked effluent stream and the hydrotreated effluent stream may be passed to a stripping column to recover a stripping bottom stream. The stripping bottom stream may be passed to a main fractionation column to recover an intermediate naphtha stream.

    Abstract: A process and apparatus for hydrotreating a renewable feedstock with improved carbon monoxide management is disclosed. A mixture of renewable feedstock and hydrocarbon feedstock is treated in a hydrotreating reactor to produce a hydrotreated effluent stream and contacting the hydrotreated effluent stream with a water gas shift catalyst bed to produce a shift reactor effluent stream. The shift reactor effluent stream is passed to a cold separator to recover a cold vapor stream and recycling the cold vapor stream having reduced concentration of carbon monoxide to the hydrotreating zone. The subject matter disclosed provides an improved process and apparatus to reduce the accumulation of CO by converting CO present in the hydrotreated effluent stream to CO2 using the water shift gas reaction.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for upgrading a hydrocarbon feedstream comprising passing the hydrocarbon feedstream to a first hydroprocessing reactor in a reaction vessel to produce a first hydroprocessed effluent stream. The first hydroprocessed effluent stream is separated in a hot separator to produce a vapor stream and a liquid hydrocarbon stream. At least a portion of the liquid hydrocarbon stream is passed to a second hydroprocessing reactor disposed in the reaction vessel above the first hydroprocessing reactor, to produce a second hydroprocessed effluent stream. A liquid product stream is separated from the second hydroprocessing effluent stream. The vapor stream from the hot separator is mixed with the liquid product stream to provide a combined stream.

    Abstract: Processes for pyrolyzing biomass. A catalyst is used to both pyrolyze and deoxygenate the biomass within the pyrolysis zone. A source of carbon monoxide is also passed to the pyrolysis reactor. The source of carbon monoxide may comprise a stream of gas that includes carbon monoxide, or a material capable of generating or being converted in carbon monoxide within the pyrolysis zone. The carbon monoxide may be used as a reactant for a water gas shift reaction or as a reducing agent to remove oxygen from oxygenated hydrocarbons. The catalyst preferably comprises iron (III) oxide.
