ABSTRACT

Energy exploration and conservation is one of the most critical challenge faced by today‘s engineering world. Engineers of various expertises are working all over the world for developing new modes of power generation and energy conservation. This surge includes not only to find the new sources of energy but rather more significantly to enhance the efficiency of already existing resources by adopting more fruitful ways of power generation and reducing the amount of waste. Conversion of low energy fuels into high energy fuels is one of the key aspects in this regard. Petroleum refinery sector is also facing this widespread challenge. De-bottle necking of various refinery processes are being carried out. For refinery sector, bringing a maximum amount or refinery product into gasoline pool has been an attractive choice for years. This has been done by converting various straight run cuts of crude oil into the gasoline cut which is only about 7% of the feed crude. Several processes including alkylation, reforming, cracking and isomerization are carried out to enhance the production of gasoline pool. In Pakistan, the refinery sector is in practice of exporting Light straight run naphtha (LSR) which is one of the key products, where it is either used in petrochemical industries or it processed to increase its octane rating thus making it fit to be used as an automobile fuel. Isomerization of light straight run naphtha has now been done worldwide to increase its octane rating. The octane rating of LSR can be enhanced by converting the straight chain paraffins into branched chains. However the benzene present in LSR is hazardous for the environment due to its carcinogenicity. This problem can be solved by saturating this benzene into cyclo-hexane. Consequently a combination of two processes that is saturation of benzene into cyclo-hexane followed by isomerization of normal paraffin into iso paraffin under the action of Platinum based on alumina catalyst is developed. This report will discuss in detail this process for the LSR produced from Atmospheric distillation column at Pakistan Refinery Limited. This report will discuss process history, chemistry of the process, material and energy balances, equipment design, economics for the process and environmental and safety concerns.

Introduction

CHAPTER # 1 INTRODUCTION

The world of today puts great emphasis on the use of the available sources of energy in the most economical way to meet the forthcoming challenges in the field of global energy consumption. This has enhanced the need of not only developing methods of efficient ways of utilizing a fuel but much more than that on developing fuels that are more equipment friendly and environment friendly. Energy sectors are working not only to find alternatives of conventional fossil fuels by replacing them with solar, wind and geothermal energy sources but at the same time already existing fuels are being made more efficient by treating them with various chemical and physical processes.

In the field of automotive the fuel consumption is increasing day by day with the decreasing prices of automotive for last few decades. This has forced the refinery sector to acquire possible ways which may increase the percentage of the crude distillate that can be used as gasoline. The gasoline cut that is obtained from the crude oil contains hydrocarbons of C7 and C8 range. This range of hydrocarbons has better compatibility with the operating conditions (temperature and pressure) of gasoline engine and thus required rate of combustion is obtained in the gasoline engine using them as fuels. This property of the fuel is distinguished by a quantity remarked as octane number. Hence in gasoline engines a major criterion for selection of fuels is its octane number.

For the reason mentioned above the crude refining sector turned its attention towards the effective ways of increasing the octane number of fractions of crude distillate (not C7and C8) by adopting different methods. The addition of small amount of TEL (tetra ethyl lead) in the gasoline pool has a remarkable increase in the pool octane number; this method was relatively very cheap and had been used for several years. However the carcinogenity of the lead urged the environmental safety organizations to put a ban on the use of TEL in the commercial gasoline. Ultimately a surge of finding the alternative methods of increasing the octane number of the gasoline pool 1

Chapter 1

Introduction

raised in the refining sectors, methods such as Alkylation and Isomerization were adopted for enhancing the octane ratings of the lighter ends of the crude distillate and method of Cracking was adopted to convert heavier ends (above C8) distillate into fractions of gasoline range. These different methods are being used in the refineries throughout the world. 1.1 REFINERY PRODUCTS: We shall firstly be discussing the types of the products that are obtained from a refinery (general fractions of crude distillate) and their classification. Raw crude oil obtained from the earth crust is pretreated to remove water and salt contents, then it is distilled at atmospheric pressure to obtain a series of products having a specific boiling range from 32 to 4300C.The residue from the atmospheric distillation column is further fractionated in a vacuum distillation column. A list of these products is given below:

Figure 1.1 Crude Distillation Products (Gary and Handwerk, 2001) Light straight run naphtha and heavy straight run naphtha constitute about 3% to 4% of the input crude. The range for naphtha is from C5 to C12. Light naphtha are the hydrocarbon fractions of range C5 to C6 (including normal, iso and cyclo pentanes and hexanes, olefins of C5 and C6 and benzene and its derivatives) whereas heavy naphtha ranges from C7 to C10 (including gasoline, jet fuels and aviation fuels). Crude oil is a complex liquid mixture made up of a vast number of hydrocarbon compounds that consist mainly of carbon and hydrogen in differing proportions. In addition, small amounts of organic compounds containing sulphur, oxygen, nitrogen and metals such as vanadium, nickel, iron and copper are also present. Hydrogen to 2

Chapter 1

Introduction

carbon ratios affects the physical properties of crude oil. As the hydrogen to carbon ratio decreases, the gravity and boiling point of the hydrocarbon compounds increases. Moreover, the higher the hydrogen to carbon ratio of the feedstock, the higher its value is to a refinery because less hydrogen is required. The composition of crude oil, on an elemental basis, falls within certain ranges regardless of its origin.

We shall be further discussing the types of the hydrocarbons that are obtained from the refining of crude oil. These different hydrocarbons are then classified according to their octane ratings. All types of crude oil give the following 4 major types of hydrocarbons. 

Paraffin



Olefins



Naphthenes



Aromatics

1.1.1

Paraffins:

These are the hydrocarbons that have single bond between all carbons present in the chain. They have a general formula of CnH2n+2. The range of carbons in this type is from a single carbon to hundreds of carbon atoms.

These paraffins are further of two types:

a) Normal (n) paraffins b) Iso paraffins

Normal paraffins (n-paraffins or n-alkanes) are unbranched straight-Chain molecules. Each member of these paraffins differs from the next higher and the next lower member by a –CH2– group called a methylene group. They have similar chemical and physical properties, which change gradually as carbon atoms are added to the chain. Iso paraffins (or iso alkanes) are branched-type hydrocarbons that exhibit Structural isomerization. 3

Chapter 1

1.1.2

Introduction

Olefins:

These are the hydrocarbons that have either double or triple (at least one or more) or both types of bondings between the carbon atoms. They have a general formula of CnH2n. Olefins, also known as alkenes, are unsaturated hydrocarbons containing carbon– carbon double bonds. Compounds containing carbon–carbon triple bonds are known as acetylenes, and are also known as biolefins or alkynes.

Olefins are not naturally present in crude oils but they are formed during the conversion processes. They are more reactive than paraffins. The lightest alkenes are ethylene (C2H4) and propylene (C3H6), which is important feedstock for the petrochemical industry. The lightest alkyne is acetylene.

1.1.3

Naphthenes:

Hydrocarbons lying in this range have a cyclic or ring structure but with the limitation that all the bonds among neighboring carbons are single, they have a general formula of CnH2n. The boiling point and densities of naphthenes are higher than those of alkanes having the same number of carbon atoms. Naphthenes commonly present in crude oil are rings with five or six carbon atoms. These rings usually have alkyl substituents attached to them. Multi-ring naphthenes are Present in the heavier parts of the crude 4

Introduction

oil. Examples of naphthenes are shown below

1.1.4

Aromatics:

These hydrocarbons have a cyclic structure along with alternative double bonds between the carbons joined in the ring. Benzene is a six carbon containing compound with alternative double and single bonds, benzene and its alternatives collectively constitute this group of hydrocarbons.

Crude oils from various origins contain different types of aromatic compounds in different concentrations. Light petroleum fractions contain mono-aromatics, which have one benzene ring with one or more of the hydrogen atoms substituted by another atom or alkyl groups. Examples of these compounds are toluene and xylene. Together with benzene, such compounds are important petrochemical feedstock, and their presence in gasoline increases the octane number.

Chapter 1

Introduction

1.2 AUTOMOBILE FUELS: The wide range of the refinery products obtained are sorted to be used as the fuel for different sectors. The cut of the refinery products used by the automobile sector is heptane and octane. This selection is governed by the combustion properties and the conditions provided by these engines to the fuel. One of the significant properties is the octane number of the fuel. 1.3 OCTANE NUMBER: An octane number is a measure of the knocking tendency of gasoline fuels in spark ignition engines. The ability of a fuel to resist auto-ignition during compression and prior to the spark ignition gives it a high octane number.

The octane number of a fuel is determined by measuring its knocking value compared to the knocking of a mixture of n-heptane and isooctane (2, 2, 4-rimethyl pentane). Pure n-heptane is assigned a value of zero octane while isooctane is assigned 100 octane. Hence, an 80 vol% isooctane mixture has an octane number of 80. Two octane tests can be performed for gasoline.

The motor octane number (MON) indicates engine performance at highway conditions with high speeds (900 rpm).

On the other hand, the research octane number (RON) is indicative of low-speed city driving (600 rpm).

The posted octane number (PON) is the arithmetic average of MON and RON. One of the standard tests is ASTM D2700.

Introduction

1.4 PROCESSING OF HEAVIER AND LIGHTER HYDROCARBONS THAN C 7 AND C8: The range commonly used in gasoline pool is the C7 and C8 hydrocarbons. However some lighter ends and some heavier ends are converted into this range by processing to accommodate the increasing demand of the automobile fuel. Some of the common procedures are briefly discussed.

1.4.1

Alkylation:

The addition of an alkyl group to any compound is an alkylation reaction but in petroleum refining terminology the term alkylation is used for the reaction of low molecular weight olefins with an isoparaffins to form higher molecular weight isoparaffins. Although this reaction is simply the reverse of cracking, the belief that paraffin hydrocarbons are chemically inert delayed its discovery until about 1935. The need for high-octane aviation fuels during World War II acted as a stimulus to the development of the alkylation process for production of isoparaffinic gasoline of high octane number. The need for high-octane aviation fuels during World War II acted as a stimulus to the development of the alkylation process for production of isoparaffinic gasoline of high octane number.

The reactions occurring in both processes are complex and the product has a rather wide boiling range. By proper choice of operating conditions, most of the product can be made to fall within the gasoline boiling range with motor octane numbers from 88 to 94 and research octane numbers from 94 to 99. Alkylation processes using hydrofluoric or sulfuric acids as catalysts, only iso paraffins with tertiary carbon atoms, such as isobutane or isopentane, react with the olefins. In practice only isobutane is used because isopentane has a sufficiently high octane number and low vapor pressure to allow it to be effectively blended directly into finished gasoline. The principal reactions which occur in alkylation are the combinations of olefins with isoparaffins as follows:

1.4.2

Catalytic Reforming:

Catalytic reforming of heavy naphtha and isomerization of light naphtha constitute a very important source of products having high octane numbers which are key components in the production of gasoline, Environmental regulations limit on the benzene content in gasoline. If benzene is present in the final gasoline it produces carcinogenic material on combustion. Elimination of benzene forming hydrocarbons, such as hexane will prevent the formation of benzene, and this can be achieved by increasing the initial point of heavy naphtha. These light paraffinic hydrocarbons can be used in an isomerization unit to produce high octane number isomers. Catalytic reforming is the process of transforming C7–C10 hydrocarbons with low octane numbers to aromatics and iso-paraffins which have high octane numbers. It is a highly endothermic process requiring large amounts the straight run naphtha from the crude distillation unit is hydrotreated to remove sulphur, nitrogen and oxygen which can all deactivate the reforming catalyst. The hydrotreated naphtha (HTN) is fractionated into light naphtha (LN), which Is mainly C5–C6, and heavy naphtha (HN) which is mainly 8

Introduction

C7–C10 hydrocarbons. It is important to remove C6 from the reformer feed because it will form benzene which is considered carcinogenic up on combustion. Light naphtha (LN) is isomerized in the isomerization unit.

Light naphtha can be cracked if introduced to the reformer. Hydrogen, produced in the reformer can be recycled to the naphtha hydrotreater, and the rest is sent to other units demanding hydrogen.

In catalytic reforming the structure of the straight run cuts are altered by using several techniques to make them lie within the gasoline range. Reforming Reactions 

1.5 WHAT IS ISOMERIZATION: Isomerization is the process in which light straight paraffins of low RON are transformed into branched chain using proper catalysts. The paraffins used are C4, C5 and C6. The number of the carbon atoms remains constant but the octane number increases. The naphtha obtained from the fractionation column of crude oil is hydrotreated and further fractionated into heavier and light naphtha. Heavier naphtha is (90-1900C) is used as a feed to the reforming unit. The light naphtha obtained (max 800C) is used as a feed for the isomerization unit. The reforming unit cannot treat lighter naphtha because the C6 component of the paraffins tends to form benzene in the reforming unit; this is an undesirable event as benzene concentrations in the gasoline pool must be maintained down to a level because of its carcinogenity. 1.5.1

Thermodynamics of reaction:

The isomerization reactions are slightly exothermic and the reactions are carried out at equilibrium (reversible reaction of significant level) the reaction equilibrium is unaffected by the pressure variation as the number of moles on both sides remain same. However kinetic studies have shown that a temperature of 125-1300C is optimum for the reaction to be carried out.

1.5.2

Isomerization Reactions:

Isomerization is a reversible and slightly exothermic reaction:

The conversion to iso-paraffin is not complete since the reaction is equilibrium conversion limited. It does not depend on pressure, but it can be increased by lowering the temperature. However operating at low temperatures will decrease the reaction rate. For this reason a very active catalyst must be used. 1.5.3

Isomerization Catalysts:

There are two types of isomerization catalysts 

The standard Pt/chlorinated alumina



The Pt/zeolite catalyst.

Standard Isomerization Catalyst (Pt/chlorinated alumina) This bi-functional nature catalyst consists of highly chlorinated alumina (8–15w% chlorine) responsible for the acidic function of the catalyst. Platinum is deposited (0.3–0.5 wt%) on the alumina matrix. Platinum in the presence of hydrogen will prevent coke deposition, thus ensuring high catalyst activity. The reaction is performed at low temperature at about 1300C. To improve the equilibrium yield and to lower chlorine elution. The standard isomerization catalyst is sensitive to impurities such as water and sulphur traces which 11

Chapter 1

Introduction

will poison the catalyst and lower its activity. For this reason, the feed must be hydrotreated before isomerization. Furthermore, carbon tetrachloride must be injected in to the feed to activate the catalyst. The pressure of the hydrogen in the reactor will result in the elution of chlorine from the catalyst as hydrogenchloride. For all these reasons, the zeolite catalyst, which is resistant to impurities, was developed. 1.5.4

Zeolite Catalyst:

Zeolites are crystallized silico-aluminates that are used to give an acidic function to the catalyst. Metallic particles of platinum are impregnated on the surface of zeolites and act as hydrogen transfer centres. The zeolite catalyst can resist impurities and does not require feed pretreatment, but it does have lower activity and thus the reaction must be performed at a higher temperature of 250 0C. A comparison of the operating conditions for the alumina and zeolite processes is shown

CHAPTER # 2 INTRODUCTION UOP‘S PENEX PROCESS:

2.1

The Penex process has served as the primary isomerization technology for upgrading C5/C6 light straight-run naphtha feeds since UOP introduced it in 1958. This process has a wide range of operating configurations for optimum design flexibility and feedstock processing capabilities. The Penex process is a fixed-bed procedure that uses high activity chloride-promoted catalysts to isomerize C5/C6 paraffins to higher octane branched components. The reaction is conducted in the presence of a minor amount of hydrogen. Even though the chloride is converted to hydrogen chloride, carbon steel construction is used successfully because of the dry environment. For typical C5/C6 feeds, equilibrium will limit the product to 83 to 86 RON (Research Octane Number) on a single hydrocarbon pass basis. The operating conditions are such that promote isomerization and minimize hydrocracking. Operating conditions are not severe, as reflected by moderate operating pressure, low temperature, and low hydrogen partial pressure requirements. Ideally, this isomerization catalyst would convert all the feed paraffins to the high octane-number branched structures: normal pentane (nC5) to isopentane (iC5) and normal hexane (nC6) to 2,2- and 2,3-dimethylbutane. The reaction is controlled by a thermodynamic equilibrium that is more favorable at low temperature. Equipments Used in Penex Process: 

Operation and Operating Conditions of some Penex Process Equipment: 2.1.1

Liquid Feed Driers Operation:

Hydro treated SR light naphtha at temperature 45 0C & pressure 4.5 kg/cm2 is passed through driers to control moisture at 1.0 ppmw in the feed. Drying medium is the molecular sieves. There are two drier, one remain in operation while the other is on regeneration. Isomerate is used as regenerant. Dry liquid feed is collected in feed surge drum. Molecular sieves are regenerated by isomerate & there replacement depends on the efficiency or after period of four year. 2.1.2

Make Up Gas Driers Operation:

Make up gas is dry by passing into dryers. Molecular sieves used as drying agents. Dry gas is control at moisture < 1.0 ppmv. Before drying of gas CO & CO2 is 14

removed from the makeup gas. It is accomplished by passing the gas through Methanator. CO & CO2 are converted into methane in presence of Nickel oxide catalyst. Nickel catalyst cannot be regenerated. It is replaced totally; its life is 4-5 years. Temperature & pressure of Methanator is maintained 220 °C & 27 kg/cm2. 2.1.3

Reactor Operations:

Combine liquid feed & make up gas is heated in pre-heat exchangers & chloride is injected before entering the reactors. The Reactor System is typically designed to operate at a minimum pressure of 31.6 Kg/cm2 (g). Lead reactor inlet temperatures range from 131°C to 200°C and lag reactor inlet temperatures range from 142°C to 186°C. H2/HCBN mole ratio is maintained as 0.20 at reactors inlet & 0.05 at reactors outlet. 2.1.4

Stabilizer Operation:

Reactor effluents passed through stabilizer where lighter gases & propane is separated from the isomerate. Stabilizer column is operated at temperature 145 °C & pressure 18.0 kg/cm2. 2.1.5

Stabilizer Net Gas Scrubber Operation:

The purpose of net gas scrubbers is that to neutralize the net gas prior sending to fuel gas header with caustic (strength is 10%wt). Operating parameters of net scrubbers is that pressure is 6.5 kg/cm2 and temperature is 45 °C. The most common Penex process is Hydrocarbon Once-Through Penex process. 2.1.6

Hydrocarbon Once-Through Penex Process:

Chapter 2

Isomerization Techniques

2.1.6.1 Process Description: Hydrogen Once-Through Penex process flow scheme results in a substantial saving in capital equipment and utility costs by eliminating product separator and recycle gas compressor.

Light naphtha feed is charged to one of the two dryer vessels. These vessels are filled with molecular sieves, which remove water and protect the catalyst. After mixing with makeup hydrogen, the feed is heat-exchanged against reactor effluent. It then enters a charge heater before entering the reactors.

Typically, two reactors in series are used to achieve high on-stream efficiency. The catalyst can be replaced in one reactor while operation continues in the other. One characteristic of the process is that catalyst deactivation begins at the inlet of the first Reactor and proceeds slowly as a rather sharp front downward through the bed. The adverse effect that such deactivation can have on unit on-stream efficiency is avoided by installing two reactors in series. Each reactor contains 50% of the total required catalyst. Piping and valving are arranged to permit isolation of the reactor containing the spent catalyst while the second reactor remains in operation. After the spent catalyst has been replaced, the relative processing positions of the two reactors are reversed. During the short time when one reactor is off-line for catalyst replacement, the second reactor is fully capable of maintaining continuous operation at design throughput, yield, and conversion.

The reactor effluent flows to stabilizer after passing through the heat exchanger. The stabilizer overhead vapors are caustic scrubbed for removal of the HCl formed from organic chloride added to the reactor feed to maintain catalyst activity. After scrubbing, the overhead gas then flows to fuel. The stabilized, isomerized liquid product from the bottom of the column then passes to gasoline blending.

The Penex process (see below) uses the most active chlorided-alumina catalyst and operates in the range 120-180°C.

16

Chapter 2

Isomerization Techniques

LHSV is set during the design phase of any isomerization project and reflects the compromise between residence time and overall catalyst cost. At lower LHSVs, more catalyst is loaded resulting in a longer residence time. As a result lower temperature Operation is possible, resulting in a higher octane product.

System pressure is another variable and is considered in conjunction with the hydrogen flow rate to the reactor. Chlorided-alumina is more active at higher pressures. It requires only a slight excess over stoichiometric hydrogen, since the catalyst does not produce coke. A Penex unit operates at about 30 to 32 bar with oncethrough hydrogen.

Figure 2.2 (Block flow diagram of ―one through‖ process) To achieve higher octane, UOP offers several schemes in which lower octane components are separated and recycled back to the reactors. These recycle modes of operation can lead to product octane as high as 93 RON.

2.1.7

Penex Process/DIH (De-isoHexanizer):

This flow scheme is same as Penex Process with an addition of deisohexanizer column to recycle the methylpentanes, n-hexane, and some C6 cyclics. It is the lowest cost option of the recycle flow schemes & provide high octane isomerate product, especially on C6 rich feed.

Penex Process With Recycle And Fractionation (DIP/Penex Process/DIH):

Separation and recycle of unconverted normal C5 and C6 paraffins and low octane C6 isoparaffins back to the reactor, produce a higher octane product. The most common flow scheme uses a deisohexanizer (DIH) column to recycle methylpentanes, nhexane, and some C6 cyclics. It is the lowest capital cost option of the recycle flow schemes and provides a higher octane isomerate product, especially on C6 rich feeds. In the Penex/DIH process the stabilized isomerate is charged to a DIH column producing an overhead product containing all the C5 and dimethylbutanes. Normal hexane and some of the methylpentanes are taken as a side-cut and recycled back to the reactors. The small amount of bottoms (C7+ and some C6 cyclics) can be sent to gasoline blending or to a reformer . The addition of a deisopentanizer (DIP) or a super DIH will achieve the highest octane from a fractionation hydrocarbon recycle flow scheme. In this scheme, both low octane C5 and normal and isoparaffin C6 are recycled to the Penex reactors.

Penex/Molex Process:

Figure 2.5 (Penex/Molex Process flow scheme)

2.2 PROCESS DESCRIPTION: This flow scheme uses Molex technology for the economic separation and recycle of n-paraffin from the reactor effluent.

The Molex process is an adsorptive separation method that utilizes molecular sieves for the separation of n-paraffins from branched and cyclichydrocarbons. The separation is effected in the liquid phase under isothermal conditions according to the principles of the UOP Sorbex separations technology. Because the separation takes place in the liquid phase, heating, cooling and power requirements are remarkably low.

Sorbex is the name applied to a particular technique developed by UOP for separating a component or group of components from a mixture in the liquid phase by selective adsorption on a solid adsorbent.

Sorbex is a simulated moving bed adsorption process operating with all process streams in the liquid phase and at constant temperature within the adsorbent bed. Feed is introduced and components are adsorbed and separated from each other within the bed. A separate liquid of different boiling point referred to as ‗desorbent‘ is used to 19

Chapter 2

Isomerization Techniques

displace the feed components from the pores of the adsorbent. Two liquid streams emerge from the bed – an extract and a raffinate stream, both diluted with desorbent. The desorbent is removed from both product streams by fractionation and is recycled to the system.

The adsorbent is fixed while the liquid streams flow down through the bed. A shift in the positions of liquid feed and withdrawal, in the direction of fluid flow through the bed, simulates the movement of solid in the opposite direction. It is, of course, impossible to move the liquid feed and withdrawal points continuously. However, approximately the same effect can be produced by providing multiple Liquid access lines to the bed, and periodically switching each net stream to the next adjacent line. A liquid circulating pump is provided to pump liquid from the bottom outlet to the top inlet of the adsorbent chamber. A fluid-directing device, known as a ‗rotary valve‘, is also provided.

The adsorbent employed in Molex is a specially prepared molecular sieve with selective pores. Molex feed enter the adsorbent chamber via rotary valve. Adsorbent chamber is operated at pressure 15 kg/cm2. 2.2.1.2 Purification Operation:

Non-normal paraffins (iso-paraffins) are removed from the adsorption chamber & purified in raffinate column. Operating temperature & pressure of raffinate column is 125 °C & 13.0 kg/cm2. 2.2.1.3 Desorption: Operating temperature & pressure of the extract column 130 °C & 16.0 kg/cm2. 2.2.2 Penex-Plus Technology The performance of the Penex process can be compromised when processing this feedstock because benzene hydrogenation is a highly exothermic reaction. The heat generated by the benzene hydrogenation reaction can cause the reactors to operate at conditions that are less favorable for octane upgrading. For these applications, UOP offers the Penex-Plus Technology.

It includes two reactor sections. The first section is designed to saturate the benzene to cyclohexane. The second section is designed to isomerize the feed for an overall octane increase. Each reactor is operated at conditions that favor the intended reactions for maximum conversion.

Process Description

CHAPTER # 3 PROCESS DESCRIPTION 3.1

SIMPLE PROCESS DESCRIPTION:

The isomerization of light paraffins is an important industrial process to obtain branched alkanes which are used as octane boosters in gasoline. Thus, isoparaffins are considered an alternative to the use of oxygenate and aromatic compounds, whose maximum contents are subjected to strict regulations in order to protect the environment. The UOP‘s Penex process is specifically designed for the catalytic isomerization of pentane, hexanes, and mixtures thereof. The reactions take place in the presence of hydrogen, over a fixed bed of catalyst, and at operating conditions that promote isomerization and minimize hydrocracking. Operating conditions are not severe, reaction takes place at moderate operating pressure, low temperature, and low hydrogen partial pressure is required.

Light naphtha feed is charged to one of the two dryer vessels. These vessels are filled with molecular sieves, which remove water and protect the catalyst. After mixing with makeup hydrogen, the feed is heat-exchanged against reactor effluent. It then enters a charge heater before entering the reactors. Two reactors normally operate in series. The reactor effluent is cooled before entering the product stabilizer. Only a slight excess of hydrogen above chemical consumption is used. The makeup hydrogen, which can be of any reasonable purity, is typically provided by a catalytic reformer. The stabilizer overhead vapors are caustic scrubbed for removal of the HCl formed from organic chloride added to the reactor feed to maintain catalyst activity. After scrubbing, the overhead gas then flows to fuel. The stabilized, isomerized liquid product from the bottom of the column then passes to gasoline blending.

Ideally, this isomerization catalyst would convert all the feed paraffins to the high octane- number branched structures: normal pentane (nC5) to isopentane (iC5) and

23

Chapter 3

Process Description

normal hexane (nC6) to 2,2- and 2,3-dimethylbutane. The reaction is controlled by a thermodynamic equilibrium that is more favorable at low temperature.

With C5 paraffins, interconversion of normal pentane and isopentane occurs. The C 6paraffin isomerization is somewhat more complex. Because the formation of 2- and 3methylpentane and 2,3-dimethylbutane is limited by equilibrium, the net reaction involves mainly the conversion of normal hexane to 2,2-dimethylbutane. All the feed benzene is hydrogenated to cyclohexane, and a thermodynamic equilibrium is established between methylcyclopentane and cyclohexane. The octane rating shows an appreciation of some 14 numbers. 3.2

PROCESS CHEMISTRY:

Isomerization mechanism and Kinetics Paraffin isomerization is most effectively catalyzed by a dual-function catalyst containing a noble metal and an acid function. The reaction is believed to proceed through an olefin intermediate that is formed by the dehydrogenation of the paraffin on the metal site. We use butane for simplicity CH3 — CH2 — CH2 — CH3 ↔ CH3 — CH2 — CH ═ CH2 + H2 These dual-functional hydro-isomerization catalysts which operate at very low temperatures have stronger acid site. In this case it is possible that the necessary carbonium ion is former by direct hydride ion abstraction from the paraffin by the acid function of the catalyst: CH3 — CH2 — CH ═ CH2 + [H+][A-] → CH3 — CH2 — CH+ — CH3 + A Then carbonium ion undergoes skeletal isomerization. However this reaction proceeds with difficulty because it requires the formation of a primary carbonium ion at some point in the reaction. Nevertheless, the strong acidity of the isomerization catalyst provides enough driving force for the reaction to proceed at high rates. + + CH3 — CH2 — CH — CH3 → CH3 — C — CH3 │ CH3 The isoparaffinic carbonium ion is then converted to an olefin through loss of a proton to the catalyst site. 24

Chapter 3

Process Description

+ CH3 — C — CH3 + A- → CH3 — C ═ CH2 + [H+][A-] │ │ CH3 CH3 In the last step, the isoolefin intermediate is hydrogenated rapidly back to the analogous isoparaffin:

CH3 — C ═ CH2 + H2 → CH3 — CH — CH3 │ │ CH3 CH3 Equilibrium limits the maximum conversion possible at any given set of conditions. This maximum is a strong function of the temperature at which the conversion takes place. A more favorable equilibrium exists at lower temperatures.

Figure 3.1 shows the equilibrium plot for the pentane system. The maximum isopentane content increases from 64 mol % at 260°C to 82 mol % at 120°C (248°F). Neopentane and cyclopentane have been ignored because they seem to occur only in small quantities and are not formed under isomerization conditions.

The hexane equilibrium curve shown in Figure 3.2 is somewhat more complex than that shown in Fig. 3.3. The methylpentanes have been combined because they have nearly the same octane rating. The methylpentane content in the C6-paraffin fraction remains nearly constant over the entire temperature range. Similarly, the fraction of 2,3-dimethylbutane is almost constant at about 9 mol % of the C6 paraffins. Theoretically, as the temperature is reduced, 2,2-dimethylbutane can be formed at the expense of normal hexane. This reaction is highly desirable because nC6 has a RON of 30. The RON of 2,2- dimethylbutane is 93.

Other Reactions

Apart from the paraffins isomerization reactions, there are several other important reactions including: 

Naphthene Ring Opening



Naphthene Isomerization



Benzene Saturation



Hydrocracking

3.3.2.2 Ring Openinig: The three naphthenes which are typically present in feed are cyclopentane (CP), methyl cyclopentane (MCP) and cyclohexane (OH). The naphthene rings will hydrogenate to form paraffins. This ring opening reaction increases with increasing reactor temperature. At typical isomerization reactor conditions the conversion of naphthenes rings to paraffins will be on the order of 20-40 percent.

28

Chapter 3

Process Description

3.3.2.3 Naphthene Isomerization: The naphthenes Methyl Cyclopentane (MCP) and Cyclo Hexane (CH) exists in equilibrium. Naphthene isomerization will shift towards MCP production as temperature is increased.

3.3.2.4 Benzene Saturation: The catalyst will saturate benzene to cyclohexane. This reaction proceeds very quickly and is achieved at very low temperatures. Saturation a benzene is not equilibrium limited at the isomerization reactor conditions ant conversion should be 100%. The amount of heat generated by the saturation of benzene limits the amount of benzene which can be tolerated in the feed. The isomerization section feed can contain up to 5% benzene. The platinum function on the isomerization catalyst is responsible for benzene saturation.

3.3.2.5 Hydrocracking: Hydrocracking occurs in the reactors to a degree which depends on the feed quality and severity of operation. Large molecules such a C7‘s tend to hydrocrack more easily than smaller molecules. C5 and C6 paraffin will also hydrocrack to a certain extent. As C5/C6 paraffin isomerization approaches equilibrium, the extent of hydrocracking increases. If isomerization is pushed too hard, hydrocracking will reduce the liquid yield and increase heat production. Methane, ethane, propane and butane are produced as a result of hydrocracking.

3.3.3

Chloride promoter:

The addition of the chloride promoter (perchloroethylene C2Cl4) to the process stream is intended to maintain the acid function of the catalyst with chloride atoms (Cl). At a reactor temperature of 105°C (220°F) or higher, the organic chloride will decompose to HCl in the presence of the catalyst. Perchloroethylene + Hydrogen → Hydrogen Chloride + Ethane C2Cl4 + 5H2 → 4HCl + C2H6 3.3.4

Caustic Scrubbing Reactions:

The hydrogen chloride formed in the isomerization reactors is neutralized in the Stabilizer Net Gas Scrubber, by means of an acid-base reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen chloride (HCl). The result of this neutralization reaction is sodium chloride (NaCl) and water. The strength of the caustic should be monitored by determining the total alkalinity of the solution. Report the concentration of strong base as wt% NaOH. HCl + NaOH  NaCl + H2O

3.4

PROCESS VARIABLES:

In the normal operation of a Penex Unit, having once set the operating pressure fresh feed rate and makeup hydrogen flows, it is usually only necessary to adjust the reactor inlet temperatures.

Once the catalyst has been loaded into the unit, the manner in which the catalyst it placed in seance and the treatment it receives when in service will to a large extent influence its effectiveness for making quality product as well as the length of service 30

Chapter 3

Process Description

it will give. In making any changes to the operation, the welfare of the catalyst must be given prime consideration for it can be regarded as the heart of the operation or which the quality of the results obtained will depend. 3.4.1

Reactor Temperature:

In general, reactor temperature is the main process control. A definite upper limit exists for the amount of iso-paraffins which can exist in the reactor product at any given outlet temperature, as shown in Figures 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5. This is the equilibrium imposed by thermodynamics, and can be reached only after an infinity length of time, i.e. with an infinitely large reactor. In practice, therefore, the product will contain less than this equilibrium concentration of iso-paraffins. As reactor temperature is raised to increase the rate of isomerization, the equilibrium composition will be approached more closely. At excessively high temperatures, the concentration of iso-paraffins in the product will actually decrease because of the downward shift in equilibrium curve, even though the high temperature gives a high reaction rate.

The use of temperatures higher than necessary to achieve a reasonably close approach to equilibrium accomplishes nothing other than to increase the amount of hydrocracking. Extremely high temperatures may lead to an increased rate of carbon laydown on the catalyst; however, the carbon forming propensity of the catalyst is inherently so low that excessive hydrocracking would normally be encountered before carbon formation problems would develop. It is recommended, however, that UOP be consulted before temperatures above about 204°C (400°F) are employed.

A typical C5/C6 Penex Unit has two series reactors with provision for independent temperature control. The first reactor system effects the bulk of the isomerization so long as most of the catalyst therein is still active. Any benzene in the feed it hydrogenated in the first reactor, even when the catalyst therein has lost its activity with respect to paraffin isomerization. Some conversion, ring opening, of cyclohexane and methyl Cyclopentane to hexanes also occurs, as does some hydrocracking of C7 to C3 and C4. These three reactions (benzene hydrogenation, naphthene ring opening to hexane, and C7 hydrocracking) are exothermic and, for a typical feed stock contribute more to the temperature rise in the first reactor that does paraffin isomerization, which is also exothermic. 31

Chapter 3

Process Description

Normally, the first reactor system will be operated at such a temperature as to maximize the concentration of isopentane and 2,2 dimethyl butane in its effluent. The concentrations attainable and the required outlet temperature will be influenced by the amount of active catalyst present and by the amount of C6 cyclic and C7 components present in the feed, higher the temperatures being required with high concentrations of these components in the feed. By this procedure, the required operating temperature on the second reactor system is reduced and it is possible to operate under conditions where the equilibrium is more favorable.

3.4.2

Process Description

Liquid Hourly Space Velocity:

This term, commonly shortened to LHSV, is defined as the volumetric hourly flow of reactor charge divided by the volume of catalyst contained in the reactors in consistent units. The design LHSV for C5/C6 Penex operation is normally between 1 and 2. Increasing the LHSV beyond this will lead to lower product isomer ratios. In order to avoid excessive reactor severity, the Penex reactor LHSV should always be maintained above 0.5 hr-1 overall or 1.0 LHSV minimum per reactor. 3.4.3

Hydrogen to Hydrocarbon Mole Ratio:

This ratio is defined as the number of moles hydrogen at the reactor outlet per mole of reactor charge passing over the catalyst, and is specified at 0.05 moles H2/mole HCBN. The primary purpose of maintaining the ratio at or above the design is to avoid carbon deposition on the catalyst and maintain enough H2 for the reactions to proceed. If necessary, the reactor charge rate is to be reduced to maintain the design hydrogen to hydrocarbon ratio. The H2/HCBN ratio is determined by measuring the total mole of hydrogen in the stabilizer overhead gas and dividing by the total moles of fresh feed feedstock. 3.4.4

Pressure:

C5/C6 Penex Units are normally designed to operate at 31.6 kg/cm2 gauge (450 psig) at the reactor outlet. Methylcyclopentane and cyclohexane appear to adsorb on the catalyst and reduce the rate of isomerization reactions. Higher pressure helps to offset this effect of the C6 cyclic compounds. Lowering the unit pressure or operating at a slightly lower level would not affect the catalyst life but the extent of isomerization would be influenced. 3.4.5

Catalyst Promoter:

To sustain catalyst activity, the addition of chloride is necessary. At no time should the plant be operated for longer than six hours without the injection of chloride. Whenever there is a catalyst chloride deficiency, the product isomer ratios will decrease (although not necessarily instantaneously), other things being equal. Restarting the injection of chloride will tend to return the activity of the catalyst to its previous level, but it is possible that full activity will not be restored if a decline in 34

Chapter 3

Process Description

activity as a result no chloride injection has been observed. Isomerization grade perchloroethylene (C2Cl4) is UOP's recommended source of chloride.

3.5

PROCESS EQUIPMENTS:

3.5.1

Sulfur Guard Bed:

The purpose of the sulfur guard bed is to protect the Penex catalyst from sulfur in the liquid feed. The hydrotreater will remove most of the sulfur in the Penex feed. The guard bed reduces the sulfur to a safe level for operation and serves as insurance against upsets in the NHT which could result in higher that formal level of sulfur in the feed. The guard bed is loaded with an adsorbent, a nickel containing extrudate designed to chemisorb sulfur from the liquid feed. The feedstock is heated to the required temperature for sulfur removal, usually 121 °C (250°F), and passed down flow over the adsorbent.

Once sulfur breakthrough occurs, normally after one year or so of operation, the guard bed is taken off line and reloaded with fresh adsorbent. The Penex Unit need not be shut down during the short period of time required to reload the guard bed so long as the NHT is performing properly. 3.5.2

Liquid Feed Driers:

The purpose of the liquid feed driers is to ensure that the hydrocarbon stream from the treating section is dry before entering the Penex Unit.

The driers are operated in series except when they are in the regeneration mode when at that time only one will be in service.

The hydrotreated C5/C6 stream is introduced to the liquid feed drier at the bottom and passes up flow through the molecular sieve desiccant and exits at the top. The flow is then routed through one of the drier crossovers to the other liquid feed drier. The flow through the liquid feed drier is also in the up flow pattern. The dried hydrocarbon is then routed to feed surge drum. Over a period of time, the drier in the lead position 35

Chapter 3

Process Description

will become spent as indicated by the moisture analyzer located between the two driers. At this time, it will become necessary to regenerate this drier. The driers should be regenerated on a schedule frequent enough to avoid moisture breakthrough. The spent drier is taken out of service by closing the appropriate block valves. The second series drier is now alone in service as the only drier drying the feed. The moisture analyzer tap is switched to monitor this in service drier. After the drier regeneration has been completed, it is now ready for service. A switch is made such that the regenerated drier takes the tail position with the in-service drier remaining as the lead drier. Over a period of time the lead drier will become spent and is now set up far regeneration with the tail drier now being the only one in service. This will be the manner in which these driers will be lined up for process flow.

3.5.3

Make-up Gas Driers:

Make-up gas must be dried in order to protect the catalyst. The two gas driers operate in the same manner as the liquid feed driers. The driers operate up flow, in series. The dried hydrogen is then sent to the reactor circuit on flow control. The hydrogen is also used for pressure control in the feed surge drum and, for startup, in the stabilizer. 3.5.4

Feed Surge Drum:

The purpose of this drum is to provide liquid feed surge capacity for the Penex Unit. Dried feed from the liquid feed driers is routed to this drum. The feed surge drum is blanketed with dry hydrogen gas originating from the outlet of the make-up gas driers with the feed surge drum pressure being controlled by a PRC. 3.5.5

Reactor Exchanger Circuit:

The dried liquid feed from the feed surge drum is pumped by either of the t reactor charge pumps through the reactor exchanger circuit on flow control. The reactor exchanger circuit consists of the cold combined feed exchanger, the hot combined feed exchanger and the reactor charge heater.

Prior to the entry of the liquid hydrocarbon into the cold combined feed exchanger, it combines with the makeup hydrogen stream. After combining, the mix hydrocarbon-

36

Chapter 3

Process Description

hydrogen stream passes through the exchanger circuit in the order previously mentioned. The cold combined feed exchanger is equipped with a bypass which can be used to regulate the amount of combined feed preheat. The bypass is regulated with a board mounted control valve to maintain reactor charge heater control. The combined feed is further preheated by exchange with a portion of the lead reactor effluent in the hot combined feed exchanger.

A small quantity of catalyst promoter (perchloroethylene) is added upstream of the reactor charge heater. This promoter is pumped into the process by either of two injection pumps. The catalyst promoter is stored in a nitrogen blanketed storage drum.

The combined feed is finally brought up to the desired temperature in the reactor charge heater by a temperature controller which resets the exchanger‘s heat medium flow. The charge heater is equipped with an automatic shutdown which is activated by low feed or low makeup gas flow.

After exiting the reactor charge heater, the heated combined stream then flows into the first reactor. 3.5.6

Regenerant Vaporizer:

The regenerant vaporizer uses low pressure steam to heat the regenerant stream before it reaches the electric superheater. The vaporizer is an upright heat exchanger which uses bayonet type tubes that have been strength welded and fully rolled. This heater is equipped with a level indicator and a high level alarm, and is designed to operate with the top portion of the tubes uncovered. Low pressure steam on the inside of the bayonet tubes transfers heat to the regenerant on the outside of the bayonet tubes. This arrangement allows hot stream in the tip of the bayonet tube to transfer heat to the vaporized regenerant stream, giving it several degrees of superheat. This prevents the regenerant from condensing which could damage the electric bundles in the super heater when operating.

37

Chapter 3

3.5.7

Process Description

Regenerant Superheater:

The regenerant superheater, raises the temperature of the vaporized regenerate to a temperature of 315°C (600°F). The regenerant stream is heated by Inconel electric elements, which are capable of reaching temperatures of over 600°C (1112°F).The regenerant entering the superheater must be in the vapor phase to avoid damaging the electric bundles when power is applied to the superheater.

3.5.8

Isomerization Reactors:

The reactors are the heart of the process. The operation of them is such that, reactor will be placed in series with the other reactor. At various times throughout the unit's history it will be possible to have either reactor in the lead or tail position. A single reactor bypass allows operation of one reactor only during startup or partial catalyst replacement. Thermocouples are inserted into the catalyst bed of each reactor to monitor the activity of the catalyst in conjunction with product ratios.

After exiting the reactor charge heater, the heated combined stream then flows to the first reactor. Upon exiting the first reactor, the stream then passes to the hot combined feed exchanger where the first reactor's heat of reaction is partially removed. The degree of temperature removal can be achieved by adjusting the amount of exchanger by-passing with a temperature controller. This temperature controller fixes the lag reactor's inlet temperature.

The partially cooled stream is then routed to the second reactor where the find process reactions are completed. The reactors are equipped with hydrogen purge lines which are located at the inlet of each reactor. The hydrogen purge is used to remove hydrocarbon from a reactor which is to be unloaded or to pressurize a reactor. A hydrogen quench line is located at the lead reactor inlet header to aid in cooling the catalyst during a temperature excursion as well as removing hydrocarbon. The quench is controlled by an HIC with flow indication.

Chapter 3

Process Description

In case of a high reactor temperature emergency, the reactors are equipped with depressuring lines to the flare system. The reactors are depressured from the outlet of the lag reactor. The depressuring line is equipped with two motorized o pneumatically operated valves which can be operated from the control room once the reactors have been isolated from the charge heater and stabilizer.

After exiting the second reactor, the stream is then routed to the tube side of the cold combined feed exchanger. The cold combined feed exchanger tube side effluent is then routed to the stabilizer on pressure control. 3.5.9

Stabilizer:

The purpose of this column is to separate any dissolved hydrogen, HCI and cracked gases (C1, C2, and C3's) from the isomerate. The feed to this column is routed hot directly from the cold CFX before entering the stabilizer.

The column is reboiled by either steam or hot oil. The reboiler heat input is controlled by an FRC on the heating medium. The amount of heat input is adjusted to maintain sufficient reflux to adequately strip the HCl and light ends from the stabilizer bottoms material. The typical design external reflux to feed ratio is approximately 0.5 on a volume basis and is recommended as a starting point.

The stabilizer column overhead vapor, consisting of the light hydrocarbon components of the column's feed, is routed to an air or water cooled condenser and then to the stabilizer receiver. To maintain pressure control on the column, gas is vented on pressure control to the stabilizer gas scrubber. Liquid is pumped from the receiver on level control with the stabilizer reflux pump. All liquid from the stabilizer overhead receiver is refluxed to the column on tray No. 1. Bottoms product is routed to storage on level control after first being cooled in the stabilizer bottoms cooler. If the stabilizer bottoms is sent to a deisohexanizer it is not cooled, but is charged hot to the column. Part of the stabilizer bottoms is used for regenerating the driers. 39

Chapter 3

Process Description

3.5.10 Stabilizer Net Gas Scrubber: The function of the Stabilizer Net Gas Scrubber is to neutralize the hydrogen chloride present in the Stabilizer off Gas prior to its entry into the fuel gas system o the flare header. The HCI is formed in the reactor section and then vented off through the Stabilizer Overhead Receiver, to the Stabilizer Net Gas Scrubber. In this vessel, the off gas from the Stabilizer Receiver is contacted through a liquid level and later with a counter current flow of caustic solution (10 wt. % NaOH) which reacts with HCl to form sodium chloride and water. The entry point for the off gas is located at the bottom of the scrubber, and consists of a monel distributor with small holes to allow even gas distribution. The bottom distributor and the inlet flange are both made of monel to prevent corrosion, resulting from contact with high concentrations of HCl in an aqueous environment. The vessel is constructed of killed carbon steel.

The top portion of the vessel is filled with 25mm (1‘‘) Carbon Raschig Rings, which provide a good contact area for the interaction of the liquid caustic and the acidic overhead gas. The packing in the scrubbing section is held in place by a support orating on the bottom and a hold down grating on the top.

The incoming gas is contacted with the caustic in the bottom portion of the scrubber or "reservoir" section. This is where most of the HCl is removed before it reaches the top portion or the scrubbing section of the column. A high level of caustic solution is usually kept in the reservoir section of the column to ensure that there is always an ample supply of caustic for circulation. A pump is used to circulate the caustic to the two infection points on the scrubber column. One injection point if located at the top of the packed section (a spray nozzle or slot type distributor) ant the other is located just below the packed section (a spray nozzle or ring type distributor). The purpose of the lower spray distributor is to direct the caustic flow to the conical walls of the scrubber to keep the walls wetted with caustic. The design flow of caustic should be continuously maintained to each distributor to ensure goof flow distribution.

40

Chapter 3

Process Description

A water wash section may be included above the circulating caustic to remove entrained caustic from the net gas. Circulating water monitored by an FI is passed over a bed of 25mm (1‘‘) Carbon Raschig Rings at design rate. Makeup water is added to overflow a chimney trap tray which replaces water lost to saturating the dry gas in the caustic inventory section. The water is typically changed out if the caustic strength reaches 2 wt. % NaOH in the circulating water or if caustic entrainment is observed. 3.5.11 Pumps: Centrifugal pumps are used for several applications in the Penex Unit. Common applications for the centrifugal pumps are for reactor charge pumps, reflux pumps for the fractionation columns, and caustic recirculation pumps. Proportioning pumps are used for chloride injection into the feed stream and make-up water to the net gas scrubber.

Pumps used in hydrocarbon service use tandem seals with API 52 seal plans. In this application the seal oil circulation is established by way of a siphon. The seal oil is contained in a reservoir where it can be pumped to and from the pump seal. The oil is continuously pumped between the two seals. In the event of a seal failure, hydrocarbon will leak into the oil system and cause a pressure increase in the reservoir. The seal oil reservoir is equipped with a pressure alarm and pressure gauge to alert the operator to a seal failure. The reservoir is usually vented to flare through an orifice plate.

CHAPTER # 4 CATALYST SELECTION 4.1

CATALYST:

Substance that changes the rate of reaction but does not take part in reaction.

4.2

TYPES OF CATALYSTS:

The schemes of proposing processes are analogous generally. The differences are defines by performances of usable catalysts due to their type. Main parameter which is the octane number of produced isomerate depends on process temperature. That‘s why we will dwell on the issue of thermodynamic of isomerization reaction. First of all hydrocarbons isomerization reaction is balanced reaction, and equilibrium yield of isoparaffins increases with temperature reducing, but it can be reached only after an ―infinite residence time‖ of the feed in reaction zone or an equivalent very small value for LHSV. On the other hand an increase in temperature always corresponds to an increase in reaction velocity. So that at low temperature the actual yield will be far below the equilibrium yield, because of low reaction velocity. On the contrary, at higher temperature, the equilibrium yield will be more easily reached, due to a high reaction rate. Consequently, at higher temperature the yield of isoparaffins is limited by the thermodynamic equilibrium, and at lower temperature it is limited by low reaction rate (kinetic limitation) (Figure 4.1)

Figure 4.1 Dependence of n-paraffins conversion on reaction temperature 43

Chapter 4

Catalyst Selection

Paraffin-isomerization catalysts fall mainly into two principal categories: those based on Friedel-Crafts catalysts as classically typified by aluminum chloride and hydrogen chloride and dual-functional hydro isomerization catalysts. 4.2.1

First Generation Catalysts:

The Friedel-Crafts catalysts represented a first-generation system. Although they permitted operation at low temperature, and thus a more favorable isomerization equilibrium, they lost favor because these systems were uneconomical and difficult to operate. High catalyst consumption and a relatively short life resulted in high maintenance costs and a low on-stream efficiency. 4.2.2

Second Generation Catalysts:

These problems of first generation systems were solved with the development of second-generation dual-functional hydro isomerization catalysts. These catalysts included a metallic hydrogenation component in the catalyst and operated in a hydrogen environment. However, they had the drawback of requiring a higher operating temperature than the Friedel-Crafts systems. 4.2.3

Third Generation Catalysts:

The desire to operate at lower temperatures, at which the thermodynamic equilibrium is more favorable, dictated the development of third-generation catalysts. The advantage of these low-temperature [below 200°C (392°F)] catalysts contributed to the relative nonuse of the high-temperature versions. Typically, these noble-metal, fixed-bed catalysts contain a component to provide high catalytic activity. They operate in a hydrogen environment and employ a promoter. Because hydrocracking of light gases is slight, liquid yields are high.

An improved version of these third-generation catalysts is used in the Penex process. Paraffin isomerization is most effectively catalyzed by a dual-function catalyst containing a noble metal and an acid function. The reaction is believed to proceed through an olefin intermediate that is formed by the dehydrogenation of the paraffin on the metal site.

44

Chapter 4

4.2.4

Catalyst Selection

Aluminum Chloride:

The isomerization catalysts employed during World War II were all of the Friedel Crafts type. Those which contained aluminum chloride only were either a hydrocarbon/aluminum chloride complex (the so-called sludge process) or they were manufactured in-situ by deposition onto a support such as alumina or bauxite. They were intended to operate at very low temperatures [49-129°C (120-265°F)] and to approach the very favorable equilibrium composition characteristic of these temperatures.

The catalyst tended to consume itself by reaction with the feedstock and/or product. When temperature was raised a little in an effort to compensate for loss of catalyst and to speed the reaction to effect more isomerization, light fragments were formed by cracking and these, when vented caused an excessive loss of the HCI promoter.

Corrosion of downstream equipment was also commonplace, due to the solubility of aluminum chloride in hydrocarbon, to its relatively high volatility and to the difficulty of removing it from the product by caustic washing. Aluminum chloride deposition in and plugging of reboiler tubes was not uncommon. 4.3

DUAL-FUNCTIONAL HYDROISOMERIZATION CATALYSTS:

4.3.1

Hydro-isomerization catalysts [above 199°c (390°f)]:

The operational problems which had characterized the Friedel-Crafts type isomerization plants, the advent of catalytic reforming which not only made hydrogen generally available in refineries but also demonstrated the practicality of using noble metal containing catalysts on a large scale, and the octane numbed race which postwar high compression engines initiated all combined in the 1950's to spawn a spate of hydro-isomerization processes. These catalysts generally contained a noble metal and some halide, operated at temperatures between about

299°C (560°F) and

temperatures approaching those characteristic of catalytic reforming, employed recycle hydrogen to prevent catalyst carbonization and utilized either no promoter or traces at most. In general, they did not require an especially dry feedstock but did benefit from a low sulfur content feedstock. Most achieved a close approach to the equilibrium characteristic of their particular operating temperature. 45

Chapter 4

Catalyst Selection

Because of their high operating temperatures and their necessarily low conversions to iso-paraffins, these high temperature catalysts were quickly replaced with the advent of the ―third generation‖ low temperature catalysts. 4.3.2

Hydro-isomerization catalysts [below 199°c (390°f)]:

Low temperature is considered rather arbitrarily for catalyst classification purposes as anything below 199°C (390°F) operating temperature. Typically these are fixed bed catalysts containing a supported noble metal and a component to provide acidity in the catalytic sense. They operate in a hydrogen atmosphere and may employ a catalyst promoter whose concentration in the reactor may range from parts per million to substantially higher levels. They generally all require a dry, low sulfur feedstock; however, they may differ importantly in their tolerance of certain types and molecular weights of hydrocarbons. Hydrocracking to light gases is generally slight, so liquid product yields are high. The type of catalyst used in the Penex unit is of this type.

The acid function is the support itself and some examples include acid zeolites, chlorided alumina and amorphous silica alumina. Noble metals have a positive effect on the activity and stability of the catalyst. However they have a low resistance to poisoning by sulfur and nitrogen compounds present in the processed cuts.

In order to prepare a suitable catalyst for hydroconversion of alkanes, good balance between the metal and acid functions must be obtained. Rapid molecular transfer between the metal and acid sites is necessary for selective conversion of alkanes into desirable products. 4.4

ALUMINA CATALYST:

Alumina or aluminum oxide (AlR2ROR3R) is a chemical compound with melting point of about 2000°C and sp. gr. of about 4.0. It is insoluble in water and organic liquids and very slightly soluble in strong acids and alkalies. Alumina occurs in two crystalline forms. Alpha alumina is composed of colorless hexagonal crystals with the properties given above; gamma alumina is composed of minute colorless cubic

46

Chapter 4

Catalyst Selection

crystals with sp. gr. of about 3.6 that are transformed to the alpha form at high temperatures. Figure (4.2) shows the shape of AlR2ROR3R [Ulla, 2003]. The most common form of crystalline alumina, α-aluminum oxide, is known as corundum. If a trace of the element is present it appears red, it is known as ruby, but all other colorations fall under the designation sapphire. The primitive cell contains two formula units of aluminum oxide. The oxygen ions nearly form a hexagonal close-packed structure with aluminum ions filling two-thirds of the octahedral interstices.

Typical alumina characteristics include:

 Good strength and stiffness  Good hardness and wear resistance  Good corrosion resistance 

Good thermal stability

 Excellent dielectric properties (from DC to GHz frequencies)  Low dielectric constant  Low loss tangent

ZEOLITES:

Zeolites are micro porous crystalline solids with well-defined structures. Generally they contain silicon, aluminum and oxygen in their framework and cations, water and/or other molecules within their pores. Zeolites occur naturally as minerals or synthetic, Figure (4.3) shows the shape of different types of zeolites [Matthew, 2008]. Because of their unique porous properties, zeolites are used in a variety of applications with a global market of several million tons per annum. In the western world, major uses are in petrochemical cracking, ion-exchange (water softening and purification), and in the separation and removal of gases and solvents. Other applications are in agriculture, animal husbandry and construction. They are often also referred to as molecular sieves [Danny, 2002]. Zeolites have the ability to act as catalysts for chemical reactions which take place within the internal cavities. An important class of reactions is that catalyzed by hydrogen-exchanged zeolites, whose framework-bound protons give rise to very high acidity. This is exploited in many organic reactions, including crude oil cracking, isomerization and fuel synthesis [Jirong, 1990].

CHAPTER # 5 MATERIAL BALANCE

5.1

Material Balance:

Material balances are important first step when designing a new process or analyzing an existing one. They are almost always prerequisite to all other calculations in the solution of process engineering problems. Material balances are nothing more than the application of the law of conservation of mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed. Thus, you cannot, for example, specify an input to a reactor of one ton of naphtha and an output of two tons of gasoline or gases or anything else. One ton of total material input will only give one ton of total output, i.e. total mass of input = total mass of output. 5.1.1

Conservation Law:

Total flow rate of (S) into the system

+

Generation rate of (S) within system

=

Total flow rate of (S) out of the system

+

Accumulation rate of (S) within system

±

Amount of (S) exchanged with the surrounding

The quantity S can be any one of the following quantities:     5.1.2

Mass Energy Momentum Component Mass (Mole) Total Mass Balance:

Since mass is always conserved, the balance equation for the total mass (m) of a given system is: Rate of mass in - Rate of mass out = rate of mass accumulation 5.1.3

Component Balance:

The mass balance for a component A is generally written in terms of number of moles of A. Thus the component balance is: Flow of Flow of Rate of Rate of moles (A) + mole of (A) + Generation of = Accumulation of in out moles of (A) moles of (A) 50

Energy Balance

CHAPTER # 6 ENERGY BALANCE

The First Law of Thermodynamics is a statement of energy conservation. Although energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can be converted from one form to another (for example, internal energy stored in molecular bonds can be converted into kinetic energy; potential energy can be converted to kinetic or to internal energy, etc.). Energy can also be transferred from one point to another, or from one body to a second body. Energy transfer can occur by flow of heat, by transport of mass (transport of mass is otherwise known as convection), or by performance of work. The general energy balance for a process can be expressed in words as: Accumulation of Energy in System = Input of Energy into System – Output of Energy from System 6.1

ENERGY BALANCE AROUND STABILIZER T-101

Energy balance around the stabilizer has been performed following the mass balance. The reboiler duty and the condenser duties are calculated and the results are verified. Heat in + Heat generated = Heat out + Heat consumed Since there is no heat generation and consumption, therefore, Heat in = Heat out.

The enthalpy of the feed entering (Hin) the column from reference temperature Tr = 120oC Hin = 0 The distillate temperature is Td = 115oC The bottom‘s temperature is Tb = 125oC

Chapter 6

Energy Balance

The enthalpy of the distillate from reference temperature of 120oC is Hd = -308 kW The enthalpy of bottom product is Hb = 96 kW The reboiler duty can be calculated as Qreb = V x λ Qreb = 260 kW The saturated steam flow rate for reboiling at 1 bar is ms= Qreb/hs ms =0.13 kg/s The cooling duty of the condenser is Qcon = (L+D) x Cp x (Tavg – Td) Qcon = 50 kW The flow rate of cooling water available at 40 oC mc = Qcon/ (Cp) (Tavg – Td) mc = 2.38 kg/s

REACTOR

Types of Reactors The most common types of Reactors are 1. Fixed bed Reactor 2. Fluidized bed Rector 3. Stirrer tank Reactor

Fixed bed reactor can be further classified on the biases of either heat is supplied during reaction or not. i.

Adiabatic

ii.

Non adiabatic

The reactions taking place within the reactor may be in gas phase or there might a case of trickle operation. For gas phase reactions some important reactor configurations are as under. 1. Single adiabatic bed 2. Radial flow 3. Adiabatic beds in series with intermediate cooling or heating 4.

Direct-fired non-adiabatic

Except reactor type and configuration some other factors are important like , Distribution system and Sporting ceramic balls which also serves for uniform distribution of flow as well. Our Reactor in this case is non-isothermal adiabatic reactor with basket type distribution system and standard ceramic balls installation. Detailed calculations of distribution system is given in design calculations.

DESIGNING OF NAPHTHA FEED PUMP:

A pump is one of the most important pieces of mechanical equipment that is present in industrial processes. A pump moves liquid from one area to another by increasing the pressure of the liquid above the amount needed to overcome the combined effects of friction, gravity and system operating pressures.

There are two types of pump which are generally used in industrial processes: positive displacement pump and centrifugal. It is important to choose the suitable type of pump based on process requirement and fluid process properties.

In designing the pump, the knowledge of the effect of parameters; such as pump capacity, NPSH, pumping maximum temperature, specific gravity, fluid viscosity, fluid solid content, and the other process requirements are very important. All of these parameters will affect the selection and design of the pump which will affect the performance of the pump in the process.

NPSH as a measure to prevent liquid vaporization or called cavitation of pump. Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) is the total head at the suction flange of the pump less the vapor pressure converted to fluid column height of the liquid.

Naphtha feed is coming from the atmospheric distillation column is treated with hydrogen and brought to a pressure about 4 bar. This stream is then raised to a pressure of 24 bar using a centrifugal compressor. The design of pump is carried out using energy balance (extended Bernoulli‘s equation) and the power of the pump is calculated.

For relative roughness (є) =0.046 m Friction factor (f) = 0.002 An assumed length of 100 m from pump outlet to the inlet of the reactor ∆PF = 8670 N/m2 hence the work done per unit mass is 102

HEAT EXCHANGER DESIGN:

Heat exchanger E-101 is installed to recover the heat of the effluent from reactor R101 and heat the naphtha feed to bring it to the required temperature. The hot stream which is coming from R-101 is at a temperature of 1750C and the cold stream is the preheated naphtha feed coming from E-101 and is at a temperature of 78.21. The hot stream is cooled to 1200C which is the required inlet temperature for R-102. Hence the outlet temperature of naphtha feed can be determined. The physical properties of both the streams are found at their mean temperatures. The first iteration is done by assuming a constant specific heat; this is used to find the final temperature of the naphtha stream to be 1120C. Cold stream (Naphtha feed) 0

CHAPTER # 8 COST ESTIMATION

8.1

COST ESTIMATION:

Feasibility means that the project being considered is technically possible. Economic feasibility, in addition to acknowledging the technical possibility of a project, further implies that it can be justified on an economic basis as well. Economic feasibility measures the overall desirability of the project in financial terms and indicates the superiority of a single approach over others that may be equally feasible in a technical sense. The cost analysis of an industrial process includes capital investment cost, manufacturing cost and general expense such as income taxes. 8.1.1

Capital investments:

Before an industrial plant can be put into operation, large amount of money must be supplied to purchase and install the necessary machinery and equipment, land and service facilities must be obtained and the plant must be erected. Complete with all pipe controls inn services. In addition it is necessary to have money available for payment of expenses involved in the plant operation. 8.1.2

Fixed capital:

Fixed capital is that portion of the total capital that is invested in fixed assets (such as land, buildings, vehicles, and equipment) that stay in the business almost permanently. The capital needed to supply the necessary manufacturing and plant facilities is called the fixed-capital investment It includes 

capital necessary for the installed process equipments



All design and construction overheads supervision



All piping, instruments and controls



insulation, foundations, and site preparation

119

land, processing buildings, administrative, and other offices, warehouses, laboratories.



Auxiliary facilities, such as utilities, land and civil engineering work

The fixed capital investment classified in to two sub divisions.

i.

Direct Cost

ii.

Indirect Cost

8.1.3

Working capital:

Working capital is additional investment which represents operating liquidity available to a processing plant. It includes the cost of 

Startup



Initial catalyst charge



raw materials and supplies carried in stock



Inventories of intermediates and products



cash kept on hand for monthly payment of operating expenses, such as salaries, wages etc.



Payable accounts and taxes.

The total capital investment is the sum of fixed and working capital. The ratio of working capital to total capital investment varies with different companies, but most chemical plants use an initial working capital amounting to 10 to 20 percent of the total capital investment. This percentage may increase to as much as 50 percent or more for companies producing products of seasonal demand because of the large inventories which must be maintained for appreciable periods of time.

By far the most important item is the raw material expense. Labor is the component of immediate secondary magnitude. This increased by the fact that pay role over head

and plant overhead are always calculated fraction of labor expense and that laboratories charges and supervision maybe estimated similarly if one chooses. Depreciation, property taxes, insurance and sometimes maintenance and plant supplied are estimated from the fixed capital investment. Individually there are small in the manufacturing cost, but together they can represent a sizable total- Utilities take collectively represent an amount of relative importance in a manufacturing cost. Royalties on the average are small but should be carefully conceded when large. Similarly, shipping is usually minor. Packaging expenses are usually small since the petrochemical industry is primarily bulk supplier. However in particular face of the industry packaging may prove to be of major importance. General expenses are a sizable portion of total cost, can be estimated as percentage of manufacturing cost.

Cost Estimation

The limitations of preliminary plant location cost studies should be recognized pointed out a management. No matter how carefully a survey is prepared, future trends such as population and marketing shifts, development of competitive processes and the advent of new industries. Services and transportation facilities cannot be reliably predicated. 8.4

PLANT LOCATION AND SITE SELECTION:

The location of plant has a crucial effect on the profitability of project and the scope for future expansion. Many factors are considered when selecting a suitable site. A brief explanation of each factor is given below: 8.4.1

Raw Materials Supply:

Probably the location of the raw materials of an industry contributes more towards the choice of a plant site than any other factor. This is especially noticeable in those industries in which the raw material is inexpensive and bulky and is made more compact and obtains a high bulk value during the process of manufacturing. 8.4.2

Marketing Area:

For materials that are produced in bulk quantities, such as cement, minerals acids and fertilizers, where the cost of e product per ton is relatively low and cost of transportation has a significant fraction of the sale price. The plant should be located closed to the primary market. This consideration will be less important for low volume production, high price product such as pharmaceuticals. 8.4.3

Transportation Facilities:

The Transport of material and products to and from the plant will be overriding consideration in site selection. If practicable, a site should be selected that is closed to at least two major forms of transport, road, rail, water way (canal or river) or a sea port. Road transport is being increasingly used and is suitable for local distribution from a central ware house. Rail transportation will be cheaper for long distance transport of bulk chemicals. Air transport is convenient and efficient for the movement of personnel and essential equipment and supplies and the proximity of the site to a major airport should be considered.

125

Chapter 8

8.4.4

Cost Estimation

Sources of Power:

Power for chemical industry is primarily from coal, water and oil; these fuels supply (he most flexible and economical sources, in as much as they provide for generation of steam both for processing and for electricity production power can be economically developed as a by-product in the most chemical plants. If the needs are great enough, since the process requirements generally call for lowpressure steam. The turbines of engines used to generate electricity can be operated non-condensing and supply exhaust steam for processing purposes. 8.4.5

Availability of Labor:

Labor will be needed for construction of the plant and its operation. Skilled construction workers will usually be brought in from outside the site area, but here should be an adequate pool of unskilled labor available locally; and lab our suitable for training to operate plant. Skilled tradesmen will be needed for plant maintenance. Local trade union customs and restrictive practices will have to be considered when assessing the availability and suitability of the local labor for recruitment and training. 8.4.6

Water Supply:

Water for industrial purpose can be obtained from one of two general sources: the plant's own source or municipal supply. If the demand for water is larger, it is more economical for the industry to supply its own water. Such a supply may be obtained from drilled wells, rivers, lakes, dammed streams or other impounded supplies. Before a company enters upon any project, it must ensure itself of a sufficient supply of water for all industrial, sanitary and fire demands, both present and future. 8.4.7

Effluent Disposal:

All industrial process produce waste products and full consideration must be given to the difficulties and cost of their disposal. The disposal of toxic and harmful effluents will be covered by local regulations and appropriate authorities must be consulted during the initial site survey to determine the standards that must be met.

126

Chapter 8

8.4.8

Cost Estimation

Local Community Considerations:

The proposed plant must fit in with and be acceptable to the local community. Full consideration must be given to the safe location of the plant so that it dies not impose a significant additional risk to the community. On a new site, the local community must be able to provide adequate facilities for, the plant personnel: school, banks, housing and recreational and cultural facilities. 8.4.9

Land Considerations:

Sufficient suitable land must be available for the proposed pant and for future expansion. The land should ideally be flat, well drained and have suitable load bearing characteristics. A full site evaluation should be made to determine the need for piling or other special foundation. 8.4.10 Climate: Adverse climatic conditions at a site will increase costs. Abnormally low temperature will require the provision of additional insulation and special heating for equipment and pipe runs. Stronger structures will be need at locations subjected to strong winds (cyclone hurricane areas) or earthquakes. 8.4.11 Political and Strategic Considerations: Capital grants, tax concessions, and other inducements are often given by government's direct new investment to preferred locations such as areas of high unemployment. The availability of such grants can be over-riding consideration site selection.

Environment And Safety

CHAPTER # 9 ENVIRONMENT AND SAFETY Petroleum refining is one of the largest industries and a vital part of the national economy. However, potential environmental hazards associated with refineries have caused increased concern for communities in close proximity to them. This update provides a general overview of the processes involved and some of the potential environmental hazards associated with petroleum refineries. 9.1

DEFINITION OF A PETROLEUM REFINERY:

Petroleum refineries separate crude oil into a wide array of petroleum products through a series of physical and chemical separation techniques. These techniques include fractionation, cracking, hydro treating, combination/blending processes, and manufacturing and transport. The refining industry supplies several widely used everyday products including petroleum gas, kerosene, diesel fuel, motor oil, asphalt, and waxes. 9.2

BACKGROUND:

A refinery is an industrial plant for purifying a crude substance. The refining sector investment in Pakistan has been almost nonexistent since the 1960s.In the late 90s, Pakistan‘s refining capacity was less than 150k bbl. /day. Pakistan imported over 60% of

its

total

POL

product

consumption.

capacity stands slightly below 300Kbb/day. This

At present, Pakistan‘s was

mainly

due

refining to the

commencement of PARCO in the late 2000.Almost the refineries work at around 80% capacity except Byco, which just utilized 45% of its capacity. NRL and PPl operate at full capacity. Inspite of current condition there is a general lack of refineries; where Pakistan is facing a deficit 100,000 to 150,000 barrels a day in refining fuel oil and diesel. There are certain standards that are followed internationally known as EURO 2 and EURO 4 that relate to environmental cleanliness. Neither of these is followed in Pakistan. The major players or the 5 refineries under OCAC (Oil Companies Advisory Committee) are: 1. Pak Arab Refinery Complex 2. National Refinery Limited 129

Chapter 9

3. Pakistan Refinery Limited 4. Attock Refinery Limited 5. Byco Refinery Limited Two refineries that have been introduced and don‘t come under OCAC. Enar Petrotech Services Limited and Dohaka Refinery Limited.

9.3

PROCESSES INVOLVED IN REFINING CRUDE OIL:

The process of oil refining involves a series of steps that includes separation and blending of petroleum products. The five major processes are briefly described below: 9.3.1

Separation Processes:

These processes involve separating the different fractions/ hydrocarbon compounds that make up crude oil based on their boiling point differences. Crude oil generally is composed of the entire range of components that make up gasoline, diesel, oils and waxes. Separation is commonly achieved by using atmospheric and vacuum distillation. Additional processing of these fractions is usually needed to produce final products to be sold within the market. 9.3.2

Conversion Processes:

Cracking, reforming, coking, and visbreaking are conversion processes used to break down large longer chain molecules into smaller ones by heating or using catalysts. These processes allow refineries to break down the heavier oil fractions into other light fractions to increase the fraction of higher demand components such as gasoline, diesel fuels or whatever may be more useful at the time.

9.3.3

Treating:

Petroleum-treating processes are used to separate the undesirable components and impurities such as sulfur, nitrogen and heavy metals from the products. This involves processes such as hydro treating, deasphalting, acid gas removal, desalting, hydrodesulphurization, and sweetening.

Blending/Combination Processes:

Refineries use blending/combination processes to create mixtures with the various petroleum fractions to produce a desired final product. An example of this step would be to combine different mixtures of hydrocarbon chains to produce lubricating oils, asphalt, or gasoline with different octane ratings. 9.3.5

Auxiliary Processes:

Refineries also have other processes and units that are vital to operations by providing power, waste treatment and other utility services. Products from these facilities are usually recycled and used in other processes within the refinery and are also important in regards to minimizing water and air pollution. A few of these units are boilers, wastewater treatment, and cooling towers. 9.4

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS OF PETROLEUM REFINERIES:

Refineries are generally considered a major source of pollutants in areas where they are located and are regulated by a number of environmental laws related to air, land and water. Some of the regulations that affect the refining industry include the following Laws, Rules and Regulations have been issued under the Pakistan Environmental Protection Act, 1997. 9.4.1 

Here is a breakdown of the air, water, and soil hazards posed by refineries: 9.4.4

Air Pollution Hazards:

Petroleum refineries are a major source of hazardous and toxic air pollutants such as BTEX compounds (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylem). They are also a major source of criteria air pollutants: particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (Knox), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Refineries also release less toxic hydrocarbons such as natural gas (methane) and other light volatile fuels and oils. Some of the chemicals released are known or suspected cancercausing agents, responsible for developmental and reproductive problems. They may 132

Chapter 9

Environment And Safety

also aggravate certain respiratory conditions such as childhood asthma. Along with the possible health effects from exposure to these chemicals, these chemicals may cause worry and fear among residents of surrounding communities. Air emissions can come from a number of sources within a petroleum refinery including: equipment leaks (from valves or other devices); high-temperature combustion processes in the actual burning of fuels for electricity generation; the heating of steam and process fluids; and the transfer of products. Many thousands of pounds of these pollutants are typically emitted into the environment over the course of a year through normal emissions, fugitive releases, accidental releases, or plant upsets. The combination of volatile hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen also contribute to ozone formation, one of the most important air pollution problems in the United States. 9.4.5

Water Pollution Hazards:

Refineries are also potential major contributors to ground water and surface water contamination. Some refineries use deep-injection wells to dispose of wastewater generated inside the plants, and some of these wastes end up in aquifers and groundwater. These wastes are then regulated under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Wastewater in refineries may be highly contaminated given the number of sources it can come into contact with during the refinery process (such as equipment leaks and spills and the desalting of crude oil). This contaminated water may be process wastewaters from desalting, water from cooling towers, storm water, distillation, or cracking. It may contain oil residuals and many other hazardous wastes. This water is recycled through many stages during the refining process and goes through several treatment processes, including a wastewater treatment plant, before being released into surface waters. The wastes discharged into surface waters are subject to state discharge regulations and are regulated under the Clean Water Act (CWA). These discharge guidelines limit the amounts of sulfides, ammonia, suspended solids and other compounds that may be present in the wastewater. Although these guidelines are in place, sometimes significant contamination from past discharges may remain in surface water bodies. 9.4.6

Soil Pollution Hazards:

Contamination of soils from the refining processes is generally a less significant problem when compared to contamination of air and water. Past production practices 133

Chapter 9

Environment And Safety

may have led to spills on the refinery property that now need to be cleaned up. Natural bacteria that may use the petroleum products as food are often effective at cleaning up petroleum spills and leaks compared to many other pollutants. Many residuals are produced during the refining processes, and some of them are recycled through other stages in the process. Other residuals are collected and disposed of in landfills, or they may be recovered by other facilities. Soil contamination including some hazardous wastes, spent catalysts or coke dust, tank bottoms, and sludge from the treatment processes can occur from leaks as well as accidents or spills on or off site during the transport process.

CHAPTER # 10 INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL

The important feature common to all process is that a process in never in a state of static equilibrium except for a very short period of time and process is a dynamic entity subject to continual upset or disturbance which' tend to drive it away from the desired state of equilibrium the process must then be manipulated upon or corrected to derive some disturbance bring about only transient effect in the process behavior. These passes away and the never occur again. Others may apply periodic or cycle forces which may make the process respond in a cyclic or periodic fashion. Most disturbances are completely random with respect to time a show no repetitive pattern. Thus their occurrence may be expected hut cannot be predicated at any particular time. If a process is to operate efficiently, disturbances in the process must be controlled. A process is designed for a particular objective or output and is then found. Sometimes by trial and error and sometimes by referring from the previous, experience that control of a particular variable associated with some stages of the process is necessary to achieve the desired efficiency. Each process will have associated with it number of variables which are independent of the process and/ or its operation and which are likely to change at random. Each such change will lead to changes in the dependent variables of the process one of which is selected as bring indicative of successfully operation. One of the input variable will be manipulated to cause further changes in the output variable will be manipulated to cause further

COMPONENTS OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM:

10.1.1 Process: Any operation of series of operations that produce a desired final result is a process. In this discussion the process is the purification of natural 10.1.2 Measuring Means: As all the parts of the control system, measuring element, is perhaps the most important. If the measurements are not made properly the remainder of the system cannot operate satisfactorily. The measured variable is chosen to represent the desired condition in the process. 10.2

10.2.2 Variables to be Recorded: Indicated temperature, composition, pressure etc.

CONTROLLER:

The controller is the mechanism that responds to any error indicated by the error detecting mechanism. The output of the controller is some predetermined function of the error. There are three types of controllers. 1. Proportion action which moves the control valve indirect proportion to the magnitude of the error. 2. Integral action (reset) which moves the control valve based on the time integral of the error and the purpose of integral actions is to drive the process back to .its set point when it has been disturbed. 3. Ideal derivative action and its purpose are to anticipate where the process is heading by cooking at the time a rate of change of error. The final control

element receives the signal from the controller and by some

predetermined relationship changes the energy input to the process. 10.4

CHARACTERISTICS OF CONTROLLER:

In general the process controllers can be classified as a. Pneumatic controllers b. Electronic controllers c. Hydraulic controllers While dealing with the gases, the controller and the final control element may be pneumatically operated due to the following reasons. i.

The pneumatic controller is very rugged and almost free of maintenance. The maintenance men have not had sufficient training and background in electronics, so pneumatic equipment is simple.

ii.

Pneumatic controller appears to be safer in a potentially explosive atmosphere which is often present in the industry.

iii.

Transmissions distances are short pneumatic and electronic transmissions system are generally equal up to about 200 to 300 feet. Above this distance electronic system beings to offer savings.

145

10.5

Instrumentation and Control

MODES OF CONTROL:

The various types of control are called modes, and they determine type of response obtained. In other words these describe the action of controller that is the relationship of output of output signal to the input or error signal. It must be noted that is error that achieve the controller. The four basic mode of control are: 1. On-off control 2. Integral control 3. Proportional control 4. Rate or derivative control In industry purely integral, proportional or derivative modes seldom occur alone in the control system. The on-off controller is the controller with very high gain. In this case the error signal at once off the valve or any other parameter upon which it sites or completely sets system.

10.6

ALARMS AND SAFETY TRIPS:

Alarms are used to alert operators of serious and potentially hazardous, deviations in process conditions, key instruments are fitted with switches and relays to operate audible and visual alarms on the control panels. The basic components of an automatic trip system are 1. A sensor to monitor the control variable and provide and output signal when a preset value is exceeded (the instrument). 2. A link to transfer the signal to the activator, usually consisting of a system of pneumatic or electric relays. 3. An activator to carry out the required action close or open a valve, switch off a motor. 10.7

CONTROL LOOPS:

For instrumentation and control of different sections and equipments of plants, following control loops are most often used.

1. Feed backward control loop 146

Chapter 10

Instrumentation and Control

2. Feed forward control loop 3. Ratio control loop 4. Auctioneering control loop 5. Split range control loop 6. Cascade control loop Here is given a short outline of these control schemes, so that to justify our selection of a control loop for specified equipment. 10.8

FEED BACK CONTROL LOOP:

A method of control in which a measured value of a process variable is compared with the desired value of the process variable and any necessary action is taken. Feedback control is considered as the basic control loops system. Its disadvantage lies in its operational procedure. For example if a certain quantity is entering in a process, then a monitor will be there at the process to note its value. Any changes from the set point will be sent to the final control element through the controller so that to adjust the incoming quantity according to desired value (set point). But in fact change has already occurred and only corrective action can be taken while using feedback-control system. 10.9

FEED FORWARD CONTROL LOOP:

A method of control in which the value of a disturbance is measured, and action is taken to prevent the disturbance by changing the value of a process variable. This is a control method designed to prevent errors from occurring in a process variable. This control system is better than feedback control because it anticipates the change in the process variable before it enters the process takes the preventive action. While in feedback enter system action is taken after the change has occurred. 10.10 RATIO CONTROL: A control loop in which, the controlling element maintains a predetermined ratio of one variable to another. Usually this control loop is attached to such a system where two different streams enter a vessel for reaction that may be of any kind. To maintain the stoichiometric quantities of different streams this loop is used so that to ensure proper process going on in the process vessel.

147

Chapter 10

Instrumentation and Control

10.11 AUCTIONEERING CONTROL LOOP: This type of control loop is normally used for a huge vessel where, readings of a single variable may be different at different locations. This type of control loop ensures safe operation because it employs all the readings of different locations simultaneously, and compares them with the set point, if any of those readings is deviating from the set point then the controller sends appropriate signal to final control element. 10.12 SPLIT RANGE LOOP: In this loop controller is per set with different values corresponding to different action to be taken at different conditions. The advantage of this loop is to maintain the proper conditions and avoid abnormalities at very differential levels. 10.13 CASCADE CONTROL LOOP: This is a control in which two or more control loops are arranged so that the output of, one controlling element adjusts the set point of another controlling element. This control loop is used where proper and quick control is difficult by simple feed forward or feed backward control. Normally first loop is a feedback control loop. We have selected a cascade control loop for our heat exchanger in order to get quick on proper control. 10.14 INTERLOCKS: Where it is necessary to follow a fixed sequence of operations for example, during a plant start-up and shut-down, or in batch operations. Interlocks are includes to prevent operators departing from the required sequence. They may be incorporated in the control system design, as pneumatic or electric relays or may be mechanical interlocks. 10.15 CONTROL OF HEAT EXCHANGER: 10.15.1

The Normal Way:

The normal method of controlling a heat exchanger is to measure exit temperature of process fluid and adjust input of heating or cooling medium to hold the desired temperature. 148

Chapter 10

Instrumentation and Control

To stabilize this feedback control, in almost all cases the control must have a wide proportional band (i.e., wide range of exit temperature change operates the control valve through full stroke). The proportional band is determined by gain of other components in the control loop by process considerations. Since heat-exchanger control require a wide proportional band for stabilization, reset response (rate of change of heating medium How proportional to exit temperature. deviation from controller set point is normally required to correct for offset in the controlled variable (temperature). It there are process load change and reset response can be eliminated in cases where disturbance such as heating fluid header pressure, product flow rate or inlet temperature changes have small effects relative to desired tolerance on the controlled variable. When throughout to a heat exchanger is changed rapidly a short-term error in control temperature results. The magnitude and duration of this error can normally be reduced by a factor of two by adding derivative response to the control mechanism and adjusting it properly. In derivative responses, heating fluid flow rate is proportional to rate or change of temperature derivation from the set point. 10.15.2

A Pressure Cascade Control:

A pressure cascade control system cascades output of a standard three action temperature controller into the set point of a pressure controller. It achieves a more rapid recovery to process load disturbances in a shell-and-tube exchanger than can be obtained without the pressure controller. Heating fluid to the heater is regulated by the pressure controller which is normally provided with proportional and reset responses. Load change is rapidly sensed by a change is shell pressure which is compensated for by the pressure controller. The temperature control system senses the residual error and resets the pressure control set point.

10.15.3

Bypass Improves Control of Slow-Response Exchanger:

In certain cascade, the time response characteristic of heat exchanger is too slow to hold temperature deviations resulting from load changes within desired tolerances. In 149

Chapter 10

Instrumentation and Control

some of these cases, the transient characteristic of the heat exchanger can be circumvented by by- passing the heater with a parallel line and bleeding cold process fluid with hot fluid from the heater. In the by-pass system care must be taken in sizing valves to obtain the-desired flow sprit with adequate flow versus steam travel characteristics. Thermal elements response time is particularly important since this tie constant is a major factor influencing performance of the system. 10.15.4

Flow Controllers:

These are used to control tin-feed rate into a process unit Orifice plates are by far the most type of How-rate sensor. Normally orifice plates arc designed to give pressure drops in the range of 20 to 200 inch of water Venture tubes amend turbine meter are also used. 10.15.5

Temperature controller:

Thermocouples are the most commonly used temperature sensing device. The two dissimilar wires produce a millivolt emf that varies with the ―hot- functions‖ temperature. Iron constant to thermocouples are commonly used over the 0 to 1300 F. temperature range. 10.15.6

Pressure Controller:

Bourdon tubes, bellows and diaphragms are used to sense pressure and differential pressure. For example, in mechanical system the process pressure force is balanced by the movement of a spring. The spring positing can be related to process pressure. 10.15.7

Level Indicator:

Liquid levels are detected in a variety of ways. The three common are 1. The following the position of a float that is lighter than the fluid. 2. Measuring one apparent-weight of a heavy cylinder as it is buoyed up more or less by the liquid (they are called displacement meters). 3. Measuring the difference in static pressure between two fixed elevations, one in the vapour above the liquid and the other under the liquid surface. The differential pressure between the two level taps is directly related to the liquid level in the vessel.

150

10.15.8

Instrumentation and Control

Transmitter:

The transmitter is the interface between the process and its control system. The Job of the transmitter is to convert the sensor signal (millivolts, mechanical movement, pressure difference etc.) into a control signal 3 to 15 psig air pressure signal, 1 to 5 10 to 50 milli ampere electrical signal etc.

10.15.9

Control Valves:

The interface with the process at the other end of the control loop is made by the final control element in an automatic control valves control the flow of heating fluid the open or close and orifice opening as the system is raised or lowered.
