Abstract: Proposed is a process of producing a high-quality lube base oil using a refined oil fraction obtained from waste lubricant as a feedstock. The process includes purifying waste lubricant to obtain a refined oil fraction, pretreating the refined oil fraction, and blending the pretreated refined oil fraction with unconverted oil (UCO), before or after vacuum distillation and catalytic dewaxing of the unconverted oil, or between the vacuum distillation and the catalytic dewaxing of the unconverted oil.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing high quality lube base oil (Group III) from unconverted oil having various properties obtained in a variety of hydrocrackers using improved catalytic dewaxing and hydrofinishing, the method including producing unconverted oil of at least one kind in the same or different hydrocrackers; subjecting the unconverted oil to vacuum distillation; supplying all or part of the distillate fractions to a catalytic dewaxing reactor; supplying the dewaxed oil fraction to a hydrofinishing reactor; and stripping the hydrofinished light oil fraction, wherein make-up hydrogen is supplied upstream of the hydrofinishing reactor to increase hydrogen partial pressure, thereby enabling high quality base oil to be manufactured at high yield under optimal process conditions using unconverted oil produced by hydrocracking under various conditions.

Abstract: This invention relates to a petroleum refining method for producing high value-added clean petroleum products and aromatics (Benzene/Toluene/Xylene) together, by which low pollution petroleum products including liquefied petroleum gas or low-sulfur gas oil and aromatics can be efficiently produced together from a fluid catalytic cracked oil fraction.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of simultaneously manufacturing high quality naphthenic base oil and heavy base oil using a single catalyst system, by subjecting an oil fraction (slurry oil or light cycle oil) produced by fluid catalytic cracking and an oil fraction (deasphalted oil) produced by solvent deasphalting to hydrotreating, catalytic dewaxing and hydrofinishing of the single catalyst system, thereby obtaining not only products having low viscosity but also heavy base oil products (150BS) having high viscosity which was impossible to obtain using a conventional catalytic reaction process, and also thereby producing base oil products having different properties using the single catalyst system, thus generating economic benefits and exhibiting superior efficiency.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing lubricating base oils by using vacuum distilled deasphalted oil, and more specifically, to a method for preparing various kinds of lubricating base oils by distilling a distillate obtained from a solvent deasphalting (SDA) process under reduced pressure to obtain heavy deasphalted oil (H-DAO) and light deasphalted (Lt-DAO) and then treating the H-DAO and the Lt-DAO by catalytic reactions, respectively. According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain heavy lubricating base oil (150BS) of a high viscosity grade which can not be obtained by a known catalytic reaction and a lubricating base oil of group III by hydrogenation, in a high yield, and thus economical efficiency is excellent.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing high-quality naphthenic base oils comprising a high aromatic content and a large amount of impurities with a boiling point higher than that of gasoline. High-quality naphthenic base oil may be manufactured from light cycle oil (LCO) and slurry oil (SLO), which are inexpensive, and have a high aromatic content, a large amount of impurities, and which are effluents of a fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) unit. The method also relates to the pretreatment process of a feedstock, where the amounts of impurities (sulfur, nitrogen, polynuclear aromatic compounds and various metals components) in the feedstock are reduced.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for preparing dimethyl ether, including a) reacting methanol containing 0-80 mol % of water in the presence of a dehydration catalyst, b) transferring the reaction product into a single separation column, thus separating dimethyl ether, water, and unreacted methanol, c) withdrawing dimethyl ether and withdrawing unreacted methanol from the sidestream of the single separation column, and d) recyling the unreacted methanol to the a) reacting the methanol. Dimethyl ether may be prepared from water-containing methanol, and the separation and withdrawal of dimethyl ether, water, and unreacted methanol may be realized using a single column, thus reducing the investment cost and the operating cost.
