The present invention relates to a process for treating an effluent obtained from an oligomerization step in a vaporization step. In particular, the oligomerization step is a step for dimerization of ethylene to 1-butene with a nickel-based catalytic system.

Processes and systems for making recycle content hydrocarbons, including olefins, from recycled waste material. Recycle waste material may be pyrolyzed to form recycle content pyrolysis oil composition (r-pyoil), at least a portion of which may then be cracked to form a recycle content olefin composition (r-olefin). The r-olefin may then be further separated into product streams in a separation zone downstream of the cracker furnace. The presence of recycle content hydrocarbons may facilitate more efficient operation of one or more distillation columns in the separation zone, including the propylene fractionator.

Provided is a method for preparing 1-butene and propylene including: supplying a C4 mixture stream to a first hydrogenation reactor to convert 1,3-butadiene into 1-butene; supplying a discharge stream from the first hydrogenation reactor to a first distillation column, supplying a lower discharge stream from the first distillation column including 2-butene and n-butane to a metathesis reactor, and supplying an upper discharge stream from the first distillation column including 1-butene and i-butane to a second distillation column; recovering an upper discharge stream the second distillation column including i-butane and recovering 1-butene from a lower discharge stream from the second distillation column; and producing propylene in the metathesis reactor, supplying a discharge stream from the metathesis reactor to a purification unit to recover propylene, and recycling an unreacted material to the metathesis reactor.

Process for producing biomethane from a biogas stream including methane, carbon dioxide and at least one impurity chosen from ammonia, volatile organic compounds, water, sulfur-based impurities (H.sub.2S) and siloxanes. A biogas stream is dried, the at least one impurity is at least partially removed by solidification and removal of the impurity. The methane and the carbon dioxide contained in the biogas obtained from the second step are separated so as to produce a biomethane stream and a CO.sub.2 stream.

A method of producing a fuel additive includes passing a feed stream comprising C4 hydrocarbons through a hydrogenation unit producing a hydrogenated stream; passing the hydrogenated stream through a distillation unit producing a first stream and a second stream; producing an isobutylene stream by passing the first stream through a molecular sieve unit; passing the isobutylene stream to a hydration unit as a feedstock for the fuel additive; and forming the fuel additive in the hydration unit.
