Distillate Hydrotreating and upgrading <<

FHI----Diesel hydroupgrading and isodewaxing   

 Features of FHI

  • Combining strengths of MCI and MHUG

  • High flexibility and efficiency, via changing operation modes and adjusting operating conditions, it is possible to operate on
      Hydrofining (HDS and HDN)
      MCI (decrease density and increase cetane number)
      Isodewaxing (lowing solidification point)
      Hydroupgrading (lowing T95 and increase naphtha production)

  • Using one catalyst or two catalysts in serial process.

  • Catalysts have strong isomerization activity

  • High activities of deep HDS, HDN, HDA and selective ring-opening for straight run diesel and secondary processing, isomerization for high solidification paraffin and other distillates, and certain degree of HC for heavy distillates.

Feedstock:
  Straight run diesel, straight run light VGO (LVGO), FCC diesel, Coker diesel or their mixtures

Products:
  Qualified diesel products and some naphtha with low S/N contents and high aromatics potential

Typical operating conditions
  Pressure: 6.0~18.0MPa
  H2/Oil (v): 400~1200
  LHSV: 0.8~2.0h-1
  Temperature: 340~430

  FHI technology has been applied in several domestic refineries, the commercial results are shown in the following tables. The data show that FHI technology can greatly decrease S, N, polyaromatics contents and solidification point of diesel product, and considerably increase density, T95 and cetane number, and etc of diesel.
