Abstract: Process scheme configurations are disclosed that enable conversion of crude oil feeds with several processing units in an integrated manner into petrochemicals. The designs utilize minimum capital expenditures to prepare suitable feedstocks for the steam cracker complex. The integrated process for converting crude oil to petrochemical products including olefins and aromatics, and fuel products, includes mixed feed steam cracking, fluid catalytic cracking and conversion of naphtha to chemical rich reformate. Feeds to the mixed feed steam cracker include light products from hydroprocessing zones within the battery limits, recycle streams from the C3 and C4 olefins recovery steps, and raffinate from a pyrolysis gasoline and FCC naphtha aromatics extraction zone within the battery limits. Chemical reformate from straight run naphtha streams is used as an additional feed to the aromatics extraction zone and or the mixed feed steam cracker.

Abstract: The biodegradable composite insulation material is a composite of wood from the date palm tree (Phoenix dactylifera) and polylactic acid. The composite may have up to 50 wt % date palm wood powder of maximum particle size of 212 ?m, the balance being polylactic acid (PLA). The composite may be prepared by melt blending the date palm wood powder with polylactic acid pellets in a twin screw extruder at 190° C., followed by compression molding the blend in a press or the like into the desired shape for building thermal insulation, and finally, annealing the molded product for three hours at 95° C. The composite material is biodegradable, thermally insulating, water-resistant and relatively strong.

Abstract: A clamping device (1) is provided for cartridge filtration modules (2) that have a distribution plate (3) with a feed channel (18), a retentate channel (21), a filtrate channel, and a first contact surface (8). At least one filter cartridge can be clamped between a contact surface (8) of the distribution plate (3) and a clamping surface (29) of a clamping plate (4) that can be moved orthogonally to the contact surface (8). The cartridge filtration modules (2) can be stacked on one another in an area of their distribution plates (3). A common distribution plate (3) for adjacent filter cartridge arrangements can clamped against the contact surface (8). Adjacent filter cartridge arrangements can be connected in a parallel circuit via the distribution plate (3), and the cartridge filtration modules (2) that can be stacked on top of one another can be connected in series via the distribution plates (3).
