Abstract

To provide an effective adsorption for separation of aromatics from hydrocarbon containing much aromatic contaminants and capable of desulfurization and energy conservation or the like by contacting serially connected beds of molecular sieves. This adsorption process includes following steps; a hydrocarbon having 45-300 deg.C boiling point and including 0.5-15 wt.% aromatic carbon (Z) is adsorbed on serially connected beds A, B, C, D, E, F and G of molecular sieves for the compound Z (e.g. silicagel, zeolite or alumina) and purged with a controlled cold desorbing liquid so as to recover paraffin / isoparaffin / naphthene-based hydrocarbons and the adsorbed compound Z is desorbed with a heated desorbing liquid by the aid of thermal swing temperature.

Description

[0001] This invention relates to a process for adsorptive dearomatization of hydrocarbon streams. More specifically, the present invention relates to a process for adsorptive dearomatization of a hydrocarbon stream exhibiting a boiling point range between 45 and 300° C., in which fractions the concentration of aromatic compounds reaches between 0.1 and 15% (wt. )between. The process involves the adsorption of aromatics in the feed to a series of molecular sieve beds and their desorption from these beds by a temperature swing adsorption operation (TSA). Also, product quality is improved due to the substantially complete removal of up to 100 ppm of mercaptans present, such as sulfides from methyl mercaptan to butyl mercaptan. The desorption fluid is a gas or vapor. The process of the present invention optimizes the adsorption and desorption cycle by making full use of the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent. The optimization of the cycle process and the energy utilization brou...
