Patent number: 11752476Abstract: In one embodiment, the present system describes a system wherein a first fluid is within a tank. An intermittent mixer is used for agitating the first fluid within the tank. At least one data acquisition device within the tank is capable of measuring at least one characteristic within the first fluid. In the embodiment, at least one data analyzer is capable of receiving the characteristics within the first fluid, comparing the characteristics within the first fluid to the characteristics of a second fluid, generating a data packet which contains a calculated operational speed and an operational time needed for the intermittent mixer to agitate the first fluid to obtain the characteristics of the second fluid and transmitting the data packet to the intermittent mixer. In this system the intermittent mixer is capable of altering the first fluid within the tank into the second fluid.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2023Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Phillips 66 CompanyInventors: Luke Schnefke, Victor Cedillo, Patrick David, Matt Clowe

Publication number: 20230113986Abstract: A process for producing liquid transportation fuels in a petroleum refinery while preventing or minimizing corrosion of refinery process equipment. Spectral data selected from mid-infrared spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, or both is obtained and converted to wavelets coefficients data. A pattern recognition genetic algorithm is then trained to recognize subtle features in the wavelet coefficients data to allow classification of crude samples into one of two groups based on corrosion propensity. One of several actions is taken depending upon the measured corrosion propensity of the potential feed stock in order to prevent or minimize corrosion while producing one or more liquid hydrocarbon fuels.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Applicant: PHILLIPS 66 COMPANYInventors: Ayuba Fasasi, Alec C.

Publication number: 20230115815Abstract: A process for converting a first hydrocarbon feed stream to one or more liquid transportation fuels in a petroleum refinery where the feed stream is analyzed by at least one analytical method to produce data that is transformed to wavelet coefficients data. A pattern recognition algorithm is trained to recognize subtle features in the wavelet coefficients data that are associated with an attribute of the feed stream. The trained pattern recognition algorithm then rapidly classifies potential hydrocarbon feed streams as a member of either a first group or a second group where the second group comprises hydrocarbon feed streams where the attribute or chemical characteristic at or above a predetermined threshold value. This classification allows rapid decisions to be made regarding utilization of the feedstock in the refinery that may include altering at least one variable in the operation of the refinery.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Applicant: PHILLIPS 66 COMPANYInventors: Ayuba Fasasi, Alec C.

Patent number: 11597689Abstract: A process and system for the conversion of a feedstock comprising C3-C5 light alkanes to a C5+ hydrocarbon product, for example, a BTX-rich hydrocarbon product, by performing the alkane activation (first-stage) and the oligomerization/aromatization (second-stage) in separate stages, which allows each conversion process to occur at optimal reaction conditions thus increasing the overall hydrocarbon product yield. The alkane activation or first-stage is operated at a higher temperature than the second-stage since light alkanes are much less reactive than light olefins. Since aromatization of olefins is more efficient at higher pressure, the second-stage is maintained at a higher pressure than the first-stage. Further, fixed-bed catalysts are used in each of the first-stage and the second-stage.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2020Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: Phillips 66 CompanyInventors: Jianhua Yao, Hong Xie, Jonathan Marda, Dhananjay Ghonasgi, Sourabh Pansare
