Processes and reactor systems are provided for the conversion of oxygenated hydrocarbons to paraffins useful as liquid fuels. The process involves the conversion of water soluble oxygenated hydrocarbons to oxygenates, such as alcohols, furans, ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, diols, triols, and/or other polyols, followed by the subsequent conversion of the oxygenates to paraffins by dehydration and alkylation. The oxygenated hydrocarbons may originate from any source, but are preferably derived from biomass.

The invention discloses a manufacturing method for aluminium dioxide, blends two kinds of different thin water aluminium wafer powder evenly, and then carries on dissolving and forming, drying, baking and gets the aluminum oxide. The first kind of thin water aluminum mine has a hole capacity of 0.50ml/g~0.80ml/g, the proportion accounts for 5w%~50w% of Al2O3 . the hole capacity of the second aluminum mine is about 0.85ml/g ~1.50ml/g. There has no contamination by using the method; the diameter of the carrier is in the range of 6nm~35nm and 100nm~2000nm; the carrier can be used as carrier of protection agent in heavy oil producing, metal eliminating catalyst and so on.

The invention relates to a method for generating the high quality ethylene raw material through naphtha hydrogenation. The method takes naphtha fraction and animal and vegetable oil as the raw material oil, under the condition of hydrofining, the raw material oil and hydrogen are mixed and passed through a hydrofining reaction area, the hydrogen-rich gas recycling utilization can be acquired through separating the hydrofining generated oil, and low Sulfur, low hydrogen and low aromatic naphtha can be acquired through removing hydrogen sulfide of the separated liquid with an air stripping tower. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the oil is mixed in the naphtha hydrogenation raw material, the quality of the product as the ethylene cracking raw material, in particular to aromatic long chain hydrocarbon nC16 to 18 and propane acquired through the animal and vegetable oil hydrogenation, can be remarkably improved, the cracking furnace ethylene output can be increased and the cracking furnace life can be prolonged through adding the aromatic long chain hydrocarbon nC16 to 18 and propane in the ethylene cracking raw material.

A method is provided for manufacturing cleaner fuels, in which NPC (Natural Polar Compounds), naturally existing in small quantities within various petrolic hydrocarbon fractions, are removed from the petrolic hydrocarbon fractions ranging, in boiling point, from 110 to 560° C. and preferably from 200 to 400° C., in advance of catalytic hydroprocessing. The removal of NPC improves the efficiency of the catalytic process and produces environment-friendly products, such as diesel fuel with a sulfur content of 50 ppm (wt) or lower. Also, the NPC can be used to improve fuel lubricity.

The invention relates to a method for the catalytic hydro-processing of a petroleum feedstock of the gas oil type and of a biological feedstock containing vegetal oils and/or animal fats, in a catalytic fixed-bed hydro-processing unit, said method being characterised in that the petroleum feedstock is introduced into the reactor upstream from the biological feedstock. The invention also relates to a catalytic hydro-processing unit for implementing said method, and to a corresponding hydro-refining unit.

The invention relates to a hydrotreating method (HDT) using two plants working under different operating conditions with an intermediate stripping for co-treating a mixture made up of oils of vegetable or animal origin and petroleum cuts (gas oil cuts (GO) and middle distillates) in order to produce gas oil fuel bases meeting specifications. The first plant (HDT1) is more particularly dedicated to the reactions concerning oils of vegetable or animal origin in comixture while pretreating the hydrocarbon feed, whereas the second plant (HDS2) works under more severe conditions to obtain diesel fuel according to standards, in particular in terms of effluent sulfur content, density and cold properties. The process economy, the activity and the stability of the catalyst of the second plant are greatly improved by the intermediate stripping.

A method for upgrading a naphtha feed to a naphtha product containing less than about 10 wppm of nitrogen and less than about 15 wppm sulfur, the method comprising contacting said naphtha feed with hydrogen in the presence of a bulk multimetallic catalyst under effective reactor conditions to hydrodesulfurize and hydrodenitrogenize said naphtha feed to produce said naphtha product, wherein said bulk multimetallic catalyst comprises at least one Group VIII non-noble metal and at least two Group VIB metals.

An ebullated bed hydroprocessing system, and also a method for upgrading a pre-existing ebullated bed hydroprocessing system, involves introducing a colloidal or molecular catalyst, or a precursor composition capable of forming the colloidal or molecular catalyst, into an ebullated bed reactor. The colloidal or molecular catalyst is formed by intimately mixing a catalyst precursor composition into a heavy oil feedstock and raising the temperature of the feedstock to above the decomposition temperature of the precursor composition to form the colloidal or molecular catalyst in situ. The improved ebullated bed hydroprocessing system includes at least one ebullated bed reactor that employs both a porous supported catalyst and the colloidal or molecular catalyst to catalyze hydroprocessing reactions involving the feedstock and hydrogen. The colloidal or molecular catalyst provides catalyst in what would otherwise constitute catalyst free zones within the ebullated bed hydroprocessing system. Asphaltene or other hydrocarbon molecules too large to diffuse into the pores of the supported catalyst can be upgraded by the colloidal or molecular catalyst. A slurry phase reactor may be positioned upstream from one or more ebullated bed reactors or converted from a pre-existing ebullated bed reactor.
