Cracked product distillation

As indicated in Table 4, large-scale recovery of natural gas Hquid (NGL) occurs in relatively few countries. This recovery is almost always associated with the production of ethylene (qv) by thermal cracking. Some propane also is used for cracking, but most of it is used as LPG, which usually contains butanes as well. Propane and ethane also are produced in significant amounts as by-products, along with methane, in various refinery processes, eg, catalytic cracking, cmde distillation, etc (see Petroleum). They either are burned as refinery fuel or are processed to produce LPG and/or cracking feedstock for ethylene production. [Pg.400]

In addition to the distillation of crude oil coming into the refinery, stills of various designs are used in other types of service throughout the refinery. Cracked products are separated in distillation equipment which is very similar to an atmospheric crude pipe still. The principal difference is that these products are hot from the cracking operation, so that a fired heater is not required. [Pg.209]

All refining operations may be classed as either conversion processes or separation processes. In the former, the feed undergoes a chemical reaction such as cracking, polymerization, or desulfurization. Separation processes take advantage of differences in physical properties to split the feed into two or more different products. Distillation, the most common of all refinery separation processes, uses differences in boiling points to separate hydrocarbon mixtures. [Pg.70]

Air entrainment and foaming in hydrocarbon liquids can cause operational problems with high-speed machinery in physical-chemical processes such as petroleum production, distillation, cracking, coking, and asphalt processing. [Pg.317]

Extractive Distillation Recovery of Isoprene. A typical flowsketch and material balance of distillation and solvent recovery towers for extracting isoprene from a mixture of cracked products with aqueous acetonitrile appears in Figure 13.26. A description of the flowsheet of a complete plant is given in Example 2.10. In spite of the fact that several trays for washing by reflux are provided, some volatilization of solvent still occurs so that the complete plant... [Pg.417]
