Dividing wall column in a fluid catalytic cracking gas plant for naphtha absorption, stripping, and stabilization service

Methods and systems for recovering naphtha blend stock from hydrocarbons produced in a fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process. In particular, the disclosure concerns gas plants for an FCC process, wherein the gas plant uses a dividing wall column. The dividing wall column essentially performs the functions that are performed in a traditional FCC gas plant by three different columns, namely, a primary absorber, a stripper, and a debutanizer.

PROCESS FOR SULFUR REMOVAL FROM REFINERY OFF GAS

Organic sulfur compounds contained in refinery off gas streams having either high or low concentrations of olefins are converted to hydrogen sulfides which can be then be removed using conventional amine treating systems. The process uses a catalytic reactor with or without a hydrotreater depending on the olefin concentration of the off gas stream. The catalytic reactor operates in a hydrogenation mode or an oxidation mode to convert a majority of organic sulfur compounds into hydrogen sulfides.

PROCESS TO PREPARE FEED BY USING DIVIDING WALL COLUMN AND/OR CONVENTIONAL COLUMN FOR CATALYTIC CRACKING UNIT TARGETING OLEFIN PRODUCTION

A dividing wall column or a pair of conventional columns can be used to separate an unstabilized naphtha stream to produce an aromatics-free light naphtha stream as a feed for a catalytic cracking unit for olefins production.

Method for quenching pyrolysis product

A method for quenching a pyrolysis product, including: supplying a discharge stream from a liquid decomposition furnace to a first quench tower; supplying an upper discharge stream from the first quench tower to a second quench tower; supplying a discharge stream from a first gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower; and supplying a discharge stream from a second gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECOVERING ABSORBING AGENTS IN ACID GAS TREATMENT

A method and apparatus for continuously treating acid gases including recovering absorbent chemicals by introducing streams leaving a regenerator and/or leaving an absorber into a static mixing zone wherein supplemental washing water is added to recover absorbent chemicals. Improvements to the prior art methods are provided where one or more absorbent chemical recovery units are included to increase the amount of recovered absorbent chemicals exiting the regenerator and/or exiting the absorber are increased and/or maximized. Absorbent chemical recovery units can include mixing units where liquid is added to the stream of sour gas and absorbent chemical to mix with and absorb the absorbent chemical from the stream.
