Abstract: A process for the preparation of lower olefins which comprises the step (A) of separating in a high-pressure state a mixed fluid (I) containing dimethyl ether (DME) and methanol at a specified ratio into a gas component (II) and a liquid component (III), separating the gas component (II) into an off-gas and DME, and then making this DME join the liquid component (III) to obtain a liquid component (IV) containing DME and methanol at a specified ratio and the step (B) of subjecting the liquid component (IV) to depressurization and then introducing it into a reactor for the preparation of olefins to form a lower olefin fraction (V). Lower olefins are prepared from a mixed fluid (I) containing DME and methanol at a specified ratio.

Abstract: A refined oil is obtained by using a heavy oil having a hydrogen content of 12 wt % or less as a feed oil, and after carrying out a solvent extraction process such that the hydrogen content increases by 0.2 wt % over that of the feed oil, hydrorefining process is carried out such that the hydrogen content increases by 0.5 wt % over the extracted oil. Thereby, an inexpensive heavy oil can be used as a feedstock, and using a simple and reliable method, refined oil can be produced.
