US Patent:

Filed:

Sep 21, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/960015

Inventors:

Ramesh Gupta - Berkeley Heights NJ

Assignee:

ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company - Annandale NJ

International Classification:

C10G 6502

US Classification:

208 59, 208 58, 208 89, 208210

Abstract:

A diesel fraction is purified by a process having two reaction stages and a stripping stage in a single vessel. Heteroatoms are removed in the first stage, to permit the use of a sulfur sensitive aromatics saturation catalyst in the second stage, to produce a purified diesel stock. The first stage liquid effluent is stripped in a stripping stage and then passed into the second reaction stage, in which it reacts with fresh hydrogen for aromatics removal. The second reaction stage produces a hydrogen-rich vapor effluent, which may provide all or a portion of the first stage reaction hydrogen. A noble metal catalyst is employed in the second stage. The diesel feed for the process may be one that has been at least partially refined with respect to either or both heteroatom or aromatics removal.

US Classification:

208 59, 208 58, 208 89, 208210

Abstract:

A hydrocarbonaceous feed is hydroprocessed in a single vessel containing two reaction stages and a stripping stage. The feed is fed into the first reaction stage to produce a vapor and liquid effluent which are separated, and the liquid stripped. The stripped liquid is passed as feed into the second stage, in which it meets with fresh hydrogen to produce a hydroprocessed liquid product and a hydrogen-rich vapor. The vapor is passed into the first stage, to provide the hydrogen for that stage. The use of a single vessel provides an efficient and economical addition to, or replacement for, a vessel for an existing hydroprocessing facility.

Assignee:

ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company - Annandale NJ

International Classification:

B01J 804

US Classification:

422191, 422193, 422195, 422211, 422217, 422220

Abstract:

The invention is directed to a bypass device for extending the operating life of fixed bed reactors. The device may be placed within a fixed catalyst bed to partition the bed into a first top bed and a second virtual bed. The bypass device allows any fluid feedstock to bypass the first top bed of the fixed catalyst bed as it fouls and enter the second virtual bed under conditions that promote depositing any foulants contained in the bypass flow on the top surface of the second virtual bed rather than in the interstices of the second virtual bed. The invention also relates to an improved fixed bed reactor comprising the inventive bypass device and a method for extending the operating life of a fixed bed reactor that employs the inventive bypass device.

Abstract:

The invention is directed to a multi-tier bypass apparatus for extending the operating life of fixed bed reactors. The multi-tier bypass may be disposed within a fixed catalyst bed to allow any fluid feedstock to bypass successive layers of the fixed catalyst bed as they foul. The invention also relates to an improved fixed bed reactor comprising the inventive multi-tier bypass and a method for extending the operating life of a fixed bed reactor.

International Classification:

B01J 8/04

US Classification:

422194, 422191, 422207, 422190

Abstract:

A fixed bed catalytic reactor for converting process fluids having an upper catalyst bed and a lower catalyst bed below the upper catalyst bed for converting process fluids flowing through the upper and lower beds. A mixing zone is located between the upper bed and lower beds, and at least one jet is provided for injecting an inclined fluid jet into the mixing zone against the flow of the process fluids to entrain process fluids within the jet and to radially mix the process fluids across the mixing zone.
