  • Patent number: 11866396
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an NCC process and an apparatus for producing light olefins and aromatics, wherein the C5+ fraction (16) of the cracking effluent is separated into a C5 fraction (25) recycled into the NCC reactor (4) and a C6+ fraction (26), and wherein the C6+ fraction (26) is sent into an aromatics extraction unit (30) to produce an aromatics-enriched fraction (31) and a low-aromatics fraction (32).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 15, 2020
    Date of Patent: January 9, 2024
    Assignee: IFP ENERGIES NOUVELLES
    Inventors: Olivier Thinon, Anne Claire, Vania Santos-Moreau
  • Patent number: 11779879
    Abstract: The present invention concerns the field of capturing the CO2 from a gaseous effluent. The incoming gaseous effluent is burned with a fuel, so as to obtain a hot gaseous effluent rich in acidic compounds, and the hot gaseous effluent rich in acidic compounds is cooled to give a cold effluent rich in acidic compounds, which is subsequently used in the step of contacting with an absorbent solution rich in acidic compounds.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: October 10, 2023
    Assignee: IFP Energies nouvelles
    Inventors: Florent Guillou, Berenice Moroy, Vania Santos-Moreau
  • Patent number: 11702377
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an NCC process and an apparatus for producing light olefins and aromatics, wherein the fraction comprising ethane and/or propane (12) from the cracking effluent is sent at least partly into a steam cracking furnace (19), fed with steam (20), to produce a steam cracking effluent (21) comprising ethylene and/or propylene.

  • Publication number: 20110288359
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparation of a cationic zeolite that is at least partially exchanged with one or more monovalent and/or multivalent cations. The process comprises at least the stages for separate activation of a zeolite that is to be exchanged and an anhydrous salt under a dry, inert gaseous stream, dissolution of the anhydrous salt in an anhydrous organic solvent, ion exchange under dry inert atmosphere, filtering and washing with an anhydrous organic solvent, and calcination in the presence of oxygen and under a dry gaseous stream. The invention also relates to the use of prepared zeolites for the separation or the purification of hydrocarbon feedstocks.

  • Publication number: 20110071333
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for neutralization of a cationic zeolite that is at least partially exchanged with one or more monovalent and/or multivalent cations. The neutralization process comprises at least the stages for dissolution of a basic salt in an anhydrous organic solvent, degassing this solution by bubbling a dry inert gas, suspending the zeolite in this solution under dry inert gas, filtering and washing the solid by an anhydrous organic solvent, and calcination in the presence of oxygen and under a dry gaseous stream. The invention also relates to the use of neutralized zeolites for the separation or the purification of hydrocarbon feedstocks.
