Integrated thermal process for quasicrystalline pitch production, asphaltene removal, and crude oil residue reform

摘要

The quasicrystalline phase pitch manufacturing method includes the steps of flushing a vessel with at least substantially an inert gas to remove air and oxygen from the vessel; Filling the vessel with a hydrocarbon feed; Pressurizing the vessel to an initially increased pressure; Heating the vessel to a predetermined temperature; And maintaining the vessel near a pre-determined temperature for an amount of workable time to modify the hydrocarbon feed to a product comprising a semicrystalline phase pitch.
