The S-RHT(R) Technology for Residue Hydrotreating

摘要

The S-RHT technology is developed by FRIPP for residue hydrotreating in the fixed bed in order to process the high sulfur crude and increase the yield of light distillates. The technology can be used for treating various kinds of atmospheric residues (AR) or vacuum residues (VR) with a total metal content less than 150 ppm under the operating conditions of a temperature ranging from 360-410℃, a hydrogen partial pressure of 14-15 MPa, a LHSV of 0.20-0.30h-1 and a hydrogen to oil ratio of 700-1000. A certain amount of light products can be obtained and the hydrotreated atmospheric residue can fully meet the needs for the feedstock to RFCC or a blending feedstock to FCC. Based on the S-RHT technology, a 2 Mt/a residue hydrotreating unit has been constructed and successfully started up at Maoming Petrochemical Company by the end of 1999.
