  • LUBRICATING BASE OIL MANUFACTURING PLANT FOR PRODUCING BASE OILS HAVING HIGH VISCOSITY INDEX AND DESIRED CYCLOPARAFINIC FUNCTIONALITY
    Publication number: 20110008219
    Abstract: A lubricating base oil manufacturing plant comprising a means for hydroisomerization dewaxing a wax at a specified hydrogen to feed ratio and a means for hydrofinishing the hydroisomerized wax to produce one or more base oils having a viscosity index greater than 28×Ln(Kinematic Viscosity at 100° C., in cSt)+95, and a ratio of wt % molecules with monocycloparaffinic functionality to wt % molecules with multicycloparaffinic functionality greater than 15.
    Type: Application

  • Process for making lubricating base oils with high ratio of monocycloparaffins to multicycloparaffins
    Patent number: 7763161
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing a lubricating base oil, comprising dewaxing a substantially paraffinic wax feed by hydroisomerization dewaxing using a shape selective intermediate pore size molecular sieve under hydroisomerization conditions including a hydrogen to feed ratio from about 712.4 to about 3562 liter H2/liter oil, whereby a lubricating base oil is produced having a) a total weight percent of molecules with cycloparaffinic functionality greater than 10, and b) a ratio of weight percent molecules with monocycloparaffinic functionality to weight percent molecules with multicycloparaffinic functionality greater than 30. Also a method for producing a base oil having a high ratio of weight percent molecules with monocycloparaffinic functionality to weight percent molecules with multicycloparaffinic functionality by hydroisomerization dewaxing a selected Fischer-Tropsch wax under hydroisomerization conditions including a hydrogen to feed ratio from about 712.4 to about 3562 liter H2/liter oil.
