Processing facility to form hydrogen and petrochemicals
A processing facility is provided that includes a feedstock separation system configured to separate a feed stream into a lights stream and a heavies stream, a hydrogen production system configured to produce hydrogen and carbon dioxide from the lights stream, and a carbon dioxide conversion system configured to produce synthetic hydrocarbons from the carbon dioxide. The processing facility includes a hydroprocessing system configured to process the heavies stream.
MULTISTAGE SOLVENT EXTRACTION PROCESS AND APPARATUS
Process and apparatus for two-stage solvent extraction of hydrocarbon products is disclosed. The process comprises passing a heavy hydrocarbon feed stream and a first fresh solvent to a first extraction column to generate a first overhead stream and a first bottom stream. The first overhead stream is passed to a first stripping column to generate a first product stream and a first stripped solvent stream. The first bottom stream is passed to a second extraction column to generate a second overhead stream and a second bottom stream. A second fresh solvent stream is passed to a second extraction column. The second overhead stream is passed to a second stripping column to generate a second product stream and a second stripped solvent stream. Passing the first stripped solvent stream and the second stripped solvent stream to a solvent recovery column and passing the second bottom stream to a pitch stripper.

Hydrothermal liquefaction for biomass
Catalyst composition and parameters for catalytic hydrothermal liquefaction of biomass to bio-oil fuels target municipal solid waste (MSW) rather than lignin rich plant waste typically sought for bio-oil production. An HTL (Hydrothermal Liquefaction) reactor generates bio-fuel from municipal solid waste (MSW), including receiving, in the HTL reactor, non-lignin based waste from a municipal processing stream, and adding a solvent for extracting sugars from green waste components of the municipal processing stream. The reactor extracts a liquid from the received waste, and converts water soluble products in the liquid into oil soluble products via C—C (carbon-to-carbon) coupling reactions. A catalyst added to the resulting aqueous stream recovers a beneficial oil product, and is optimized by tuning acid and base sites on the solid catalyst.
