8 0 obj The steam may be added to the process for purposes such as stripping and it may naturally evolve from the process during, for example, catalyst regeneration. As set forth above, the first step in the process of the invention comprises cracking an olefinic naphtha resulting in a cracked product having a diminished total concentration of olefinic species. The medium pore size zeolites can include crystalline admixtures which are thought to be the result of faults occurring within the crystal or crystalline area during the synthesis of the zeolites. 6 0 obj The majority of ethylene is produced using a process called steam cracking, a thermal process where hydrocarbons are broken down, or cracked into smaller molecules that are then used to manufacture more useful (and valuable) chemicals. Preferably, the catalyst contains phosphorus. 2.1 Steam Cracking process A simplified flowsheet of the steam cracking process that be found in Figure 3. The second step comprises hydroprocessing at least a portion of the cracked product to provide a hydroprocessed cracked product having a reduced concentration of contaminants such as non-hydrocarbyl species but without a substantial octane reduction. The catalyst bed can be slightly expanded by the upward flow or substantially expanded or fluidized by increasing flow rate, for example, via liquid recirculation (expanded bed or ebullating bed), use of smaller size catalyst particles which are more easily fluidized (slurry bed), or both. % to about 30 wt.

Decoking restores catalyst activity and simultaneously heats the catalyst to, e.g., 650 C. to 750 C. The hot catalyst is then recycled to the reaction zone to react with fresh naphtha feed. consuming process in the chemical industry. 5, 171, 921. Shell Internationale Research Maatschappij B.V. .

For the preferred catalysts, propylene yield by weight based on the weight of the naphtha feed under the preferred process conditions (propylene yield) does not strongly depend on catalyst steam pretreatment or the presence of steam in the process. Hydroprocessing led to a loss of 12.0 octane numbers (R+M/2) resulting, it is believed, from the high level of olefin saturation (99.9 Vol.%). In one embodiment, the cracking process of the present invention may be performed in one or more process units comprised of a reaction zone, a stripping zone, a catalyst regeneration zone, and a fractionation zone. No. Expansion joint salespeople must not only be familiar with the products they supply, but also with how those products work along with the rest of the components in a properly designed piping system. Conventional molecular sieve catalyst steam activation procedures involving steam pretreatment and adding steam to a feed are set forth, for example, in U.S. Pat. Steam cracking furnaces for ethane are similar to those using naphtha. No. Clipping is a handy way to collect important slides you want to go back to later. 3050-3052 (1982)-No Month. Adding steam to the preferred process as in, for example, stripping steam, a naphtha-steam feed mixture, or some combination thereof is also optional. number of carbon atoms as those in gasoline, but their. %, and more preferably from 2-30 wt.

Preferably, the molecular sieve is selected from the family of medium pore size (<0.7 nm) crystalline aluminosilicates, otherwise referred to as zeolites. of naphtha. Blockchain + AI + Crypto Economics Are We Creating a Code Tsunami? The naphtha feedstream is conducted into the reaction zone where it contacts a source of hot, regenerated catalyst. The invention is based on the discovery that catalytically cracking an olefinic naphtha under appropriate conditions results in the formation of light (i.e., C.
