Abstract: A method for operating an acetylene hydrogenation unit in an integrated steam cracking-fluidized catalytic dehydrogenation (FCDh) system may include separating a cracked gas from a steam cracking system and an FCDh effluent from an FCDh system into a hydrogenation feed and an acetylene-depleted stream, the hydrogenation feed comprising at least hydrogen, CO, and acetylene. During normal operating conditions, at least 20% of the CO in the hydrogenation feed is from the cracked gas. The method may include contacting the hydrogenation feed with an acetylene hydrogenation catalyst to hydrogenate at least a portion of the acetylene in the hydrogenation feed to produce a hydrogenated effluent. The steam cracking is operated under conditions that increase CO production such that a concentration of CO in the cracked gas is great enough that when a flowrate of the FCDh effluent is zero, a CO concentration in the hydrogenation feed is at least 100 ppmv.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for providing predictions tailored for a specific domain. Each field within a set of datasets is classified with a concept defined in a domain specific ontology. After receiving a target field and identifying a target concept tagged to the target field, concepts that have an influential impact directly to the target concept or indirectly to a concept tagged to a field associated with the target field are identified. Fields are then identified as candidates for predictors from the identified concepts using a semantic relationship and a numeric association combined approach. An influential confidence score and a numeric analytics score are then calculated for each of these candidates upon which a final confidence score is computed. The identified candidates are ranked based on the final confidence scores, and the top ranked candidates for predictors are selected to build a statistical model.

Abstract: A method for operating an acetylene hydrogenation unit of a steam cracking system that integrates a fluidized catalytic dehydrogenation (FCDh) effluent from a fluidized catalytic dehydrogenation (FCDh) system may include separating a cracked gas from the steam cracking system into at least a hydrogenation feed comprising at least acetylene, CO, and hydrogen, introducing the FCDh effluent to the separation system, combining the FCDh effluent with the cracked gas upstream of the separation system, or both.
