Patent number: 9650313Abstract: A styrene monomer reclamation process and system is described. The styrene monomer reclamation process includes providing a waste plastic. The waste plastic includes styrenic polymers. The waste plastic is formed into polymer particles. At least a portion of the polymer particles are dissolved in a solvent to form a polymer stream. The dissolved polymer particles are depolymerized to form a styrene monomer stream.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2014Date of Patent: May 16, 2017Assignee: Fina Technology, Inc.Inventors: Jon Tippet, James Butler, James Assef, John Ashbaugh, Jason Clark, Michel Duc, Jean-Bernard Cary

Patent number: 9120715Abstract: A process for the alkylation of an aromatic substrate can include providing an alkylation reaction zone containing an alkylation catalyst, and introducing a feedstock including an aromatic substrate and an alkylating agent into an inlet of the alkylation reaction zone and into contact with the alkylation catalyst. The alkylation reaction zone can be operated at temperature and pressure conditions to cause alkylation of the aromatic substrate in the presence of the alkylation catalyst to produce an alkylation product including a mixture of the aromatic substrate and monoalkylated and polyalkylated aromatic components. The alkylation product can be withdrawn from the alkylation reaction zone. Nitrogen containing compounds in the aromatic substrate, alkylating agent, or both can be monitored in a range 15 wppb to 35 wppm by dry colorimetry. The process can include transalkylation of polyalkylated aromatic components in a transalkylation reaction zone containing a transalkylation catalyst.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2014Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignee: TOTAL PETROCHEMICALS FRANCEInventor: Jean-Bernard Cary

Patent number: 8742191Abstract: A process for transalkylation of polyalkylated aromatic components can include providing a transalkylation reaction zone containing a transalkylation catalyst. A feedstock can be introduced into an inlet of the transalkylation reaction zone and into contact with the transalkylation catalyst. The feedstock can include a polyalkylated aromatic component derived from an aromatic substrate. The aromatic substrate can be supplied to the transalkylation reaction zone. The transalkylation reaction zone can be operated at temperature and pressure conditions sufficient to cause disproportionation of the polyalkylated aromatic component to produce a disproportionation product having a reduced polyalkylated aromatic content and an enhanced monoalkylated aromatic content. The disproportionation product can be withdrawn from the transalkylation reaction zone. Amounts of nitrogen containing compounds in the aromatic substrate can be monitored in a range of from 15 to 35 wppm by dry colorimetry.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2013Date of Patent: June 3, 2014Assignee: Total Petrochemicals FranceInventor: Jean-Bernard Cary
