Abstract: This invention relates to a process involving hydrocracking and dewaxing of a feedstream in which a converted fraction can correspond to a majority of the product from the reaction system, while an unconverted fraction can exhibit improved properties. In this hydrocracking process, it can be advantageous for the yield of unconverted fraction for gasoline fuel application to be controlled to maintain desirable cold flow properties for the unconverted fraction. Catalysts and conditions can be chosen to assist in attaining, or to optimize, desirable product yields and/or properties.

Abstract: Heavy oil feeds are hydroprocessed in the presence of a solvent under conditions that provide a variety of benefits. The solvent can be an added solvent or a portion of the liquid effluent from hydroprocessing. The processes allow for lower pressure processing of heavy oil feeds for extended processing times or extended catalyst lifetimes be reducing or mitigating the amount of coke formation on the hydroprocessing catalyst.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of Group II and Group III lube oil base stocks wherein liquid-continuous aromatics saturation is used to treat lube hydrocrackate. The treated hydrocrackate is then be sent to dewaxing unit and then optionally to a hydrotreating step.

Abstract: The preparation of Group II and Group III lube base oils wherein liquid-continuous hydrotreating is used to treat a lube oil raffinate. The hydrotreated lube oil raffinate is then sent to a dewaxing stage that can be either a solvent or catalytic dewaxing stage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing polymeric additives from dry polymer granules having increased bulk density, larger mean particle size with a small distribution of fines and lower hygroscopicity.
