Naphtha nitrogen

The most recent conceptual commercial COGAS plant, Figure 2, produces 265 MM standard cubic feet of 950 Btu/scf pipeline gas per day, from bituminous coal plus 16,800 barrels per day of light (No. 4) fuel oil and 3800 barrels per day of gasoline reformer feedstock grade naphtha. Nitrogen content of this naphtha is less than 1 ppm. The combined gas and oil output from one such plant will permit a reduction of oil imports by as much as 22 MM bbl/yr. Coal feed rate is 26,000 tons per day or... 

Properties. The properties of naphtha, gas od, and H-od products from an H-coal operation are given in Table 7. These analyses are for Hquids produced from the syncmde operating mode. Whereas these Hquids are very low in sulfur compared with typical petroleum fractions, they are high in oxygen and nitrogen levels. No residual od products (bp > 540° C) are formed. 

Table 8 shows that the naphthas produced by the EDS process have higher concentrations of cycloparaffins and phenols than do petroleum-derived naphthas, whereas the normal paraffins are present in much lower concentrations. The sulfur and nitrogen concentrations in coal naphthas are high compared to those in petroleum naphthas. 

Compounds considered carcinogenic that may be present in air emissions include benzene, butadiene, 1,2-dichloroethane, and vinyl chloride. A typical naphtha cracker at a petrochemical complex may release annually about 2,500 metric tons of alkenes, such as propylenes and ethylene, in producing 500,000 metric tons of ethylene. Boilers, process heaters, flares, and other process equipment (which in some cases may include catalyst regenerators) are responsible for the emission of PM (particulate matter), carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides (200 tpy), based on 500,000 tpy of ethylene capacity, and sulfur oxides (600 tpy). 

Ammonia (NHj) is produced from atmospheric nitrogen and hydrogen from a hydrocarbon source. Natural gas is the most commonly used hydrocarbon feedstock for new plants other feedstocks that have been used include naphtha, oil, and gasified coal. Natural gas is favored over the other feedstocks from an environmental perspective. 

Reduce harmful impurities in petroleum fractions and residues to control pollution and to avoid poisoning certain processing catalysts. For example, hydrotreatment of naphtha feeds to catalytic reformers is essential because sulfur and nitrogen impurities poison the catalyst. 

The plastic samples used in this study were palletized to a form of 2.8 3.2min in diameter. The molecular weights of LDPE and HDPE were 196,000 and 416,000, respectively. The waste catalysts used as a fine powder form. The ZSM-5 was used a petroleum refinement process and the RFCC was used in a naphtha cracking process. The BET surface area of ZSM-5 was 239.6 m /g, whose micropore and mesopore areas were 226.2 m /g and 13.4 m /g, respectively. For the RFCC, the BET surface area was 124.5 m /g, and micropore and mesopore areas were 85.6 m /g and 38.89 m /g, respectively. The experimental conditions applied are as follows the amount of reactant and catalyst are 125 g and 1.25-6.25 g, respectively. The flow rate of nitrogen stream is 40 cc/min, and the reaction temperature and heating rate are 300-500 C and 5 C/ min, respectively. Gas products were vented after cooling by condenser to -5 °C. Liquid products were collected in a reservoir over a period of... 

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the extent and the structural specificity of hydrogen exchange during the extraction of bituminous coal with naphthalene. Table I includes the data of an extraction experiment (E20) conducted with naphtha-lene-d8 using nitrogen as the cover gas. In the experiment, the reactants were heated at 380°C for 1 hour at 2200 psi the same apparatus was applied as in E19. After the run, the spent solvent was separated from the coal by distillation, and the coal and solvent were examined for deuterium and protium incorporation. 

Chlorination of butyl rubber in naphtha with chlorine-nitrogen mixtures may lead to explosion if N contents below 77% or Cl contents above 16% are used. 

The chemical objectives of naphtha and gasoline hydrotreatment are essentially the removal of S and N, and up to whether possible, to saturate the monoaromatic rings. One collateral requirement has to do with achieving the objective with no octane losses. The chemistry of the HDN of nitrogen compounds, commonly found in gasoline, has been the subject of studies, some of which are considered in this section. 

A combination of column adsorption chromatography on basic alumina and GC of the eluate served for characterization of the trace fraction of nitrogen-containing compounds in hydroprocessed naphtha. These were subdivided into groups of four types, namely pyridines, pyrroles (the most abundant), anilines and indoles125. 

Although the focus of many tests is analysis of the hydrocarbon constituents of naphtha and other petroleum fractions, heteroatoms compounds that contain sulfur and nitrogen atoms cannot be ignored, and methods for their determination are available. The combination of gas chromatography with element-selective detection gives information about the distribution of the element. In addition, many individual heteroatomic compounds can be determined.
