Embodiment Construction
[0018]The cooling of the vacuum tower wash bed below 350° F. causes a thermoset polymer to form, which then cannot be removed except by mechanical means. An injection of a solvent such as LCO before the temperature of the wash drops below 350° F. removes the polymer before it hardens.
[0019]The LCO contains petroleum distillates. In one embodiment, the LCO is a complex mixture of paraffinic, cycloparaffinic, olefinic and aromatic hydrocarbons. The LCO is predominately C9-C25 hydrocarbons produced by the distillation of products from a catalytic cracking process. This stream is likely to contain a relatively large portion of bicyclical aromatic hydrocarbons.
[0020]In another embodiment, the fluid medium may be an FCC slurry or decanted oil. Typically, the FCC slurry consists of aromatic hydrocarbons from FCC slurry oil processing technologies including hydrotreating, solvent refining and other separation techniques. Decanted oil may be a fluid catalytic cracker decanted oil, a heavy cy...
