    Abstract: This invention relates to a process for separating a hydrocarbon stream via a filtration process to produce an upgraded permeate stream with decreased Conradson Carbon Residue (“CCR”) content. The invention involves the modification of a porous ceramic filter by functionalizing the surface of the ceramic filter with an multi-ring aromatic-diimide polymer. Preferably, the multi-ring aromatic-diimide polymer is comprised of a multi-ring aromatic monomer component. The functionalized filters of the present invention can be used in a process to selectively separate components of a hydrocarbon stream to produce an improved permeate (or “filtrate”) product stream with a lower CCR content and improved processing capabilities. The functionalized filters of the present invention are particularly beneficial in filtration processes for upgrading heavy hydrocarbon feedstreams, such as whole crudes, topped crudes, synthetic crude blends, shale oils, oils derived from bitumens, oils derived from tar sands, atmospheric resids, vacuum resids, or other heavy hydrocarbon streams.

    Abstract translation: 本发明涉及一种通过过滤方法分离烃流的方法,以产生具有降低的康拉德森碳残留(CCR)含量的升级的渗透物流。 本发明涉及通过用多环芳族 - 二酰亚胺聚合物官能化陶瓷过滤器的表面来改性多孔陶瓷过滤器。 优选地,多环芳族 - 二酰亚胺聚合物由多环芳族单体组分组成。 本发明的官能化过滤器可用于选择性地分离烃流的组分以产生具有较低CCR含量和改进的处理能力的改进的渗透物(或滤液)产物流的方法。 本发明的官能化过滤器特别有益于用于改质重烃原料流的过滤方法,例如整个原油,顶部原油,合成粗混合物,页岩油,来自沥青的油,源自沥青砂的油,常压渣油,真空渣油 ,或其他重质烃流。
