  • Delayed coking process with modified feedstock
    Patent number: 8177964
    Abstract: A process of delayed coking with modified feedstock is described maximising the volume of diesel oil and minimising the volume of coke produced by means of feedstock which comprises, in a first embodiment of the invention: the bottom product (8) of the vacuum distillation tower (6), known in the prior art as vacuum residuum, and a fraction (7?) of heavy vacuum gas oil (7) obtained in the aforesaid vacuum distillation. In a second embodiment of the present invention the bottom residuum (5) proceeding from the atmospheric distillation tower (2), known in the prior art as atmospheric residuum, is employed as feedstock of a Delayed Coking Unit (9).

  • PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF BIO-OIL BY COPROCESSING OF BIOMASS IN A DELAYED COKING UNIT
    Publication number: 20100024283
    Abstract: A process is described for production of Bio-Oil by delayed coking with modified feedstock, in which the feed of the conventional coke unit envisages, in addition to the usual fresh feed of hydrocarbon (vacuum residue, atmospheric residue etc.), the feeding of a biomass for coprocessing. Said biomass can be selected from the group comprising sugar cane straw, sugar cane bagasse, castor seed cake, coconut shells, rice husks, raw soya, castor seed, canola, oil palm, and cottonseed oils, and oils and fats of animal origin, which can be used separately, or as mixtures thereof in any proportions.

  • Process of Modification of a Feedstock in a Delayed Coking Unit
    Publication number: 20090139899
    Abstract: A process is described of delayed coking optimized for greater yield of diesel oil from coke by means of modifications to the feedstock in a Delayed Coking Unit. According to the present invention in a first embodiment of the invention the feedstock includes the bottom product of the vacuum distillation tower, known in the prior art as vacuum residuum and the heavy gas oil from coke obtained in the fractionation tower and recycled to comprise the aforesaid combined feedstock. In a second embodiment of the present invention the feedstock consists of: the bottom residuum proceeding from the atmospheric distillation tower, known in the prior art as atmospheric residuum, and heavy gas oil from coke obtained in the fractionation tower and recycled to comprise the aforesaid feedstock of the unit.
