  • Publication number: 20230323224
    Abstract: A process for purification a hydrocarbon stream including: (a) Providing a hydrocarbon stream having a diene value of at least 1.0, a bromine number of at least 5 g and containing at least 10 wt % of pyrolysis plastic oil; b) contacting the effluent obtained in step a) with a silica gel, clays, alkaline or alkaline earth metal oxide, iron oxide, ion exchange resins, active carbon, active aluminium oxide, molecular sieves, alkaline oxide and/or porous supports, and/or silica gel, or any mixture thereof; c) performing a first hydrotreating step; d) contacting the effluent obtained in step c) with silica gel, clays, alkaline or alkaline earth metal oxide, iron oxide, ion exchange resins, active carbon, active aluminium oxide, molecular sieves, alkaline oxide and/or porous supports and silica gel, or any mixture thereof; e) performing a second hydrotreating step; and f) recovering a purified hydrocarbon stream.

  • Publication number: 20230287282
    Abstract: A process for the purification of a hydrocarbon stream including: (a) Providing a hydrocarbon stream having a diene value of at least 1.0 and a bromine number of at least 5 gBr2/100 g and containing pyrolysis plastic oil; (b) Optionally contact the hydrocarbon stream obtained in step (a) with a silica gel, clays, alkaline or alkaline earth metal oxide, iron oxide, ion exchange resins, active carbon, active aluminum oxide, molecular sieves, alkaline oxide and/or porous supports and silica gel, or any mixture thereof; (c) Heating the stream obtained in step a) or b) followed by a mixing of the heated stream with a second diluent heated at a temperature of at least 300° C. preferably at least 330° C.; (d) performing an hydroprocessing step at a temperature of at least 250° C. in the presence of H2; and (e) recovering a purified hydrocarbon stream.
