The present disclosure provides an integrated method and apparatus for catalytic cracking of heavy oil and production of syngas. A cracking-gasification coupled reactor having a cracking section and a gasification section is used as a reactor in the method. A heavy oil feedstock is fed into a cracking section to contact with a bed material in a fluidized state that contains a cracking catalyst, a catalytic cracking reaction is conducted under atmospheric pressure to obtain light oil-gas and coke. The coke is carried downward by the bed material into a gasification section to conduct a gasification reaction to generate syngas; the syngas goes upward into the cracking section to merge with the light oil-gas, and is guided out from the coupled reactor and enter a gas-solid separation system. Oil-gas fractionation is performed to a purified oil-gas product output from the gas-solid separation system to collect light oil and syngas products.

A method for heavy oil lightening and synthesis gas production and a device thereof are provided, where the method uses a cracking/gasification coupled reactor, which internally has a cracking section and a gasification section that communicate with each other, and includes the following steps: feeding a heavy oil material into the cracking section to implement a cracking reaction, to produce a light oil gas and a coke; the coke being carried by the coke powders and descending into the gasification section to implement a gasification reaction, to produce a synthesis gas; at least performing a first stage gas-solid separation, collecting coke powder particles and dividing them into two parts; performing an oil and gas fractionation on a purified oil and gas product output by the gas-solid separation system, and collecting a light oil product and a synthesis gas product.

An integrated method and an integrated device for heavy oil contact lightening and coke gasification are provided. The integrated method uses a coupled reactor including a cracking section and a gasification section, and the integrated method includes: feeding a heavy oil material into the cracking section to implement a cracking reaction, to obtain a light oil gas and a carbon-deposited contact agent; passing the carbon-deposited contact agent into the gasification section, so as to implement a gasification reaction, to obtain a regenerated contact agent and a syngas; and discharging the light oil gas and the ascended and incorporated syngas from the cracking section, to perform a gas-solid separation, so that the carbon-deposited contact agent carried is separated and returned to the cracking section, and a purified oil gas is obtained at the same time.

A process for the manufacture of one or more useful products comprises: gasifying a carbonaceous feedstock comprising waste materials and/or biomass in a gasification zone to generate a raw synthesis gas; supplying at least a portion of the raw synthesis gas to a clean-up zone to remove contaminants and provide a clean synthesis gas; supplying the clean synthesis gas to a first further reaction train to generate at least one first useful product and a tailgas; and diverting selectively on demand a portion of at least one of the carbonaceous feedstock, the clean synthesis gas, the tailgas and the light gas fraction to heat or power generation within the process, in response to external factors to control the carbon intensity of the overall process and enable GHG emission savings.

Methods are provided to prepare a low sulfur fuel from hydrocarbon sources, such as light tight oil and high sulfur fuel oil, often less desired by conventional refiners, who split crude into a wide range of differing products and may prefer presence of wide ranges (C3 or C5 to C20 or higher) of hydrocarbons. These fuels can be produced by separating feeds into untreated and treated streams, and then recombining them. Such fuels can also be formulated by combinations of light, middle and heavy range constituents in a selected manner as claimed. Not only low in sulfur, the fuels of this invention are also low in nitrogen and essentially metals free. Fuel use applications include on-board large marine transport vessels but also on-shore for large land based combustion gas turbines, boilers, fired heaters and transport vehicles and trains.

A reactor for producing a synthesis gas from a fuel, with a housing (2) with a combustion part accommodating a first fluidized bed in operation, a riser (3) extending along a longitudinal direction of the reactor (1) and accommodating a second fluidized bed in operation, a down-comer (4) positioned parallel to the riser and extending into the first fluidized bed, and one or more feed channels (33) for providing the fuel to the reactor (1). The reactor (1) further has a riser air chamber section (B) connected to a lower part of the riser (3), the riser air chamber section (B) comprising a cylindrical wall (28) with a plurality of circumferentially located holes (24, 25).

Gasification method comprising the following steps of: a) bringing, in a main reactor, beads made of steel, an alloy, glass or ceramic, at a temperature between 600° C. and 1,000° C., into contact with a feedstock mixture comprising water and a biomass, the biomass comprising an organic part and salts, the main reactor being pressurised to more than 224 bar and at a temperature above 200° C. b) gasifying the organic part in the presence of the beads, thereby forming a gaseous phase, an aqueous phase and a solid residue, and whereby the salts precipitate on the beads, forming a salt shell covering the beads, c) separating the beads from the organic part, d) regenerating the beads.

A zero emission waste system comprising a waste treatment unit that couples to a facility. The waste treatment unit is onsite with the facility either within the facility or local to the facility for treating waste produced by the facility. Alternatively, the waste treatment unit can be mobile that is designed to couple to the facility for waste disposal. The waste treatment unit comprises a gasification reactor, a syngas treatment unit, and a synthetic fuel generator for treating and converting waste. The synthetic fuel generator comprises an electrolysis unit and a liquid fuel synthesis unit. The waste treatment unit converts the waste to synthetic fuel, gaseous fuel, oxygen, heat, slag, and other components that are useful to the facility or other entities. The waste treatment system uses carbon dioxide generated during a waste conversion process thereby producing substantially zero emissions and eliminating waste that could be harmful to the environment.
