Fuel products treating

Another viable option for products treated with creosote and PCP (and presumable other organic treatments in the future) is burning to generate power (cogeneration). When added as a small percentage of the overall fuel load these types of treated wood can be burned without unduly increasing air emissions. As fuel costs and energy demands increase, disposal of treated wood in this manner becomes more attractive. [Pg.337]

For acid treating of the diesel fuel and jet fuel products a "new" acid treater was designed and built, the major vessel of which were refinery surplus equipment. These vessels included a settler, clay contactor and sludge storage tank. [Pg.228]

Jet Fuels. Product JP-5, before and after acid treating is compared to pilot plant prepared material in Table V. Again both stocks have similar nitrogen, hydrogen and aromatic content. [Pg.233]

Natural Gas Upgrading via Fischer-Tropsch. In the United States, as in other countries, scarcities from World War II revived interest in the synthesis of fuel substances. A study of the economics of Fischer synthesis led to the conclusion that the large-scale production of gasoline from natural gas offered hope for commercial utiHty. In the Hydrocol process (Hydrocarbon Research, Inc.) natural gas was treated with high purity oxygen to produce the synthesis gas which was converted in fluidized beds of kon catalysts (42). [Pg.81]

Spent fuel can be stored or disposed of intact, in a once-through mode of operation, practiced by the U.S. commercial nuclear power industry. Alternatively, spent fuel can be reprocessed, ie, treated to separate the uranium, plutonium, and fission products, for re-use of the fuels (see Nuclear REACTORS, CHEMICAL reprocessing). In the United States reprocessing is carried out only for fuel from naval reactors. In the nuclear programs of some other countries, especially France and Japan, reprocessing is routine. [Pg.228]

Heavy fuel oil usually contains residuum that is mixed (cut back) to a specified viscosity with gas oils and fractionator bottoms. For some industrial purposes in which flames or flue gases contact the product (eg, ceramics, glass, heat treating, and open hearth furnaces), fuel oils must be blended to low sulfur specifications low sulfur residues are preferable for these fuels. [Pg.211]

The ethylene feedstock used in most plants is of high purity and contains 200—2000 ppm of ethane as the only significant impurity. Ethane is inert in the reactor and is rejected from the plant in the vent gas for use as fuel. Dilute gas streams, such as treated fluid-catalytic cracking (FCC) off-gas from refineries with ethylene concentrations as low as 10%, have also been used as the ethylene feedstock. The refinery FCC off-gas, which is otherwise used as fuel, can be an attractive source of ethylene even with the added costs of the treatments needed to remove undesirable impurities such as acetylene and higher olefins. Its use for ethylbenzene production, however, is limited by the quantity available. Only large refineries are capable of deUvering sufficient FCC off-gas to support an ethylbenzene—styrene plant of an economical scale. [Pg.478]
