Computer Modeling System of the Industrial Diesel Fuel Catalytic Dewaxing Process

摘要

An unsteady mathematical model and a computer modeling system of the diesel fuel catalytic dewaxing process(mild hydrocracking)were developed. The modeling system allows for calculating the optimal technological mode to produce lowfreezing diesel fuel with the required cold filter plugging point taking into account the feedstock composition and catalyst activity. The modeling system consists of the main blocks: database,knowledge base,unsteady mathematical model of the diesel fuel catalytic dewaxing process,and application program package. Using the developed computer modeling system,the influence of the feedstock composition and flow rate as well as of the catalyst activity on the cold filter plugging point and the yield of diesel fuel is demonstrated.
