摘要:
This invention provides processes for producing fuel, particularly transportation fuel, from biological material, e.g., lipid material. One aspect of the invention involves hydroprocessing a feedstock in a hydroprocessing zone that is maintained at conditions that promote the efficiency of converting the lipid-containing feedstock into transportation fuel. Such conditions include one or more of maintaining CO content of the hydroprocessing zone at a predetermined amount and recycling or providing a hydrogen-containing gas to the hydroprocessing zone that has been treated to remove CO.

Methods are provided for producing lubricant base oils using a combination of catalytic and solvent processing. By using a combination of catalytic processing for feed conversion and dewaxing while using solvent processing for removal of aromatics, Group II and Group III lubricant base oils can be produced using low pressure catalytic processes.

摘要:
In a process for producing a para-xylene enriched product from a gaseous mixture comprising at least para-xylene, meta-xylene and ortho-xylene, the gaseous mixture is contacted with an adsorbent capable of selectively adsorbing para-xylene and comprising a crystalline molecular sieve having an average crystal size between about 0.5 micron and about 20 microns. The contacting is conducted at a temperature and pressure such that at least part of the para-xylene in the mixture is adsorbed by the adsorbent to produce a para-xylene-depleted effluent stream. The para-xylene is then desorbed from said adsorbent and collected to form a para-xylene enriched stream. The adsorption and desorption steps are repeated for a plurality of cycles, such that the time between successive contacting steps is no more than 10 seconds.
摘要:
This invention relates to the composition of an integrally-layered polymeric membrane and a process for utilizing the integrally-layered polymeric membrane components of a feedstream. More particularly, but not by way of limitation, this invention relates to the composition of an integrally-layered polymeric membrane and a process for utilizing the integrally-layered polymeric membrane in the separation of aromatics from a hydrocarbon based feedstream. The polymeric membranes of the present invention are fabricated by chemically crosslinking adjacent polymer membrane layers of the same or differing copolymer solutions to produce an integrally-layered polymeric membrane with improved separations properties.
摘要:
A process for removing sulfur compounds from hydrocarbon streams by contacting the hydrocarbon stream, especially a gasoline stream, with an adsorbent material. The adsorbent material is regenerated with hydrogen or a hydrogen/H2S mixture.

摘要:
A method for selectively separating benzene from gasoline boiling range streams by first fractionating the stream to produce a C.sub.6 heartcut fraction which is then passed to an adsorption zone comprised of a bed of solid adsorbent material capable of selectively removing benzene from the stream. The absorbent is regenerated with a suitable desorbent, preferably toluene.
摘要:
An improved process for catalytic reformers and their use for the catalytic reforming of petroleum naphthas. More particularly, the invention relates to an improved reformer unit which can be operated at higher throughput relative to compressor size. The invention utilizes pressure swing adsorption to improve the hydrogen content of hydrogen containing streams generated by and utilized in catalytic reforming processes. The invention also has the capability of enabling compressor-limited catalytic reforming units to be operated at increased capacities.

An improved process for hydrocracking heavy petroleum feedstocks wherein hydrogen-containing streams associated with a hydrocracker are subjected to rapid cycle pressure swing adsorption having a cycle time of less than 30 S.
摘要:
The separation of normal paraffins from isoparaffins using rapid cycle pressure swing adsorption. The present invention also relates to an isomerization process wherein normal paraffins are converted to isoparaffins resulting in an effluent stream containing a mixture of normal paraffins and isoparaffins, which effluent stream is sent to a rapid cycle pressure swing adsorption unit to perform the separation of normal paraffins from isoparaffins.
