Abstract: The method allows to incorporate an alcohol or a mixture of alcohols into fuels by minimizing the energy expenditure linked with the prior production of the alcohol or of the mixture of alcohols. One or more bases of the fuel, to which an oxygen-containing compound or a mixture of oxygen-containing compounds have possibly been added, are used to extract the alcohol or the alcohol mixture contained in aqueous solutions produced by biomass fermentation processes. After adjusting the temperature of the aqueous solution stream and of the stream containing one or more bases of the fuel through exchangers, these streams are fed into an extractor. The extract leaving the extractor is then dried and/or an oxygen-containing compound or a mixture of oxygen-containing compounds is added thereto. The raffinate leaving the extractor is sent to a water treating plant or recycled.

Abstract: A method of deacidizing a gaseous effluent comprising acid compounds where the gaseous effluent is contacted in C1 with an adsorbent solution so as to obtain a gaseous effluent depleted in acid compounds and an absorbent solution laden with acid compounds, the absorbent solution being selected for its property of forming two separable phases when it has absorbed an amount of acid compounds and when it is heated. The absorbent solution laden with acid compounds is then heated in E1 and E3 so as to separate two fractions: a first absorbent solution fraction depleted in acid compounds and a second absorbent solution fraction enriched in acid compounds. These two fractions are then separated in BS1. The second fraction is regenerated in C2 so as to release part of the acid compounds, and the first absorbent solution fraction and the regenerated absorbent solution are recycled as absorbent solution.

Abstract: The gaseous effluent flowing in through line 1 is contacted in absorption zone ZA with the liquid absorbent solution flowing in through line 9. The gaseous effluent depleted in acid compounds is discharged through line 2. The absorbent solution laden with acid compounds is discharged through line 3. The absorbent solution once laden with acid compounds comprises two phases: a first phase poor in acid compounds and a second phase rich in acid compounds. The two phases are separated in zone ZS. The first phase is recycled through lines 5 and 9 to absorption zone ZA. The second phase is fed through line 4 into regeneration zone ZR. In zone ZR, the acid compounds are separated from the absorbent solution. The acid compounds are discharged through line 7. The regenerated absorbent solution is recycled through lines 6 and 9 to zone ZA.

Abstract: Process for desulfurization of an effluent for cracking or steam-cracking hydrocarbons, more particularly a gasoline for example for catalytic cracking that comprises the elimination of thiophenic compounds by alkylation of these compounds, followed by a distillation, a hydrocracking of said alkyl-thiophenic compounds, then a hydrodesulfurization of the effluent that is obtained from the hydrocracking zone. In a preferred embodiment, this process comprises a preliminary stage for separating the cracking or steam-cracking effluent into three fractions, and proposes sending to the alkylation stage only the intermediate fraction that is low in heavy basic nitrogen-containing compounds that are initially present in the effluents that are to be alkylated.

Abstract: The fumes flowing in through line 1 are contacted in column C1 with a solvent, at low vapour pressure, absorbing the carbon dioxide. The solvent laden with carbon dioxide is regenerated by distillation in column C2. In order to improve the regeneration operation, a gas is injected through line 11 into column C2 so that this gas carries along the carbon dioxide contained in the solvent. The carbon dioxide-rich gaseous effluent obtained at the top of column C2 can be liquefied by compression and cooling, then stored in surge tank R, which allows its transportation and possibly underground sequestration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for continuous metathesis or disproportionation of olefins, comprising at least 2 phases, a reaction phase a) carried out in a zone comprising at least one reactor containing at least one fixed bed of catalyst and a regeneration phase b) carried out in a zone comprising at least one reactor containing at least one fixed bed of catalyst, characterized in that at least one reactor passes from one phase to the other in alternation. In FIG. 1, the feed containing olefins traverses reactor R1 in riser mode. The feed to be treated containing olefins is introduced into reactor R1 via line 1a. In this reactor, the olefins contained in the feed undergo metathesis or disproportionation, then the effluent leaves the circuit via line 11. Simultaneously, reactor R2 is placed in catalyst regeneration phase, the different regeneration gases are introduced into reactor R2 via line 2b and leave this reactor via line 2c.
