Annexure-VII MANUFACTURING PROCESS DETAILS (A) Crude Capacity Enhancement: Presently crude processing capacity of Bongaigaon Refinery is 2.35 MMTPA having two Crude Distillation Units(CDU) CDU-I having nameplate capacity of 1.35 MMTPA CDU-II having nameplate capacity of 1.00 MMTPA After OIL crude pipeline HBCPL capacity enhancement from 7.5 to 9.2 MMTPA, crude availability to BGR will be 2.7 MMTPA. This project is expected by August 2015. Presently the CDU-II unit is capable to process crude of 1.35 MMTPA against its nameplate capacity of 1.0 MMTPA. To enhance BGR crude processing capacity to 2.7 MMTPA, it is proposed to increase the nameplate capacity of CDU-II unit from 1.0 MMTPA to 1.35 MMPTA. No additional facility is required for this project. (B) DHDT Capacity Enhancement to meet BS-V/VI HSD specification: The DHDT unit of BGR is designed to process 1,200 TMTPA of HDT feed with balance 25- 30 % directly back blended to HSD. The diesel produced ex-DHDT unit meets BS-V specification, specially the stringent sulfur specification of 10 ppm. However, in BS-IV & BS-V regime, the total quantity of HSD feed streams will have to be processed via DHDT unit to meet the sulfur and Cetane specification of BS-V HSD. In order to sustain HSD production at the existing level under BS-IV /V scenario, the capacity of the DHDT plant is required to be increased to 150% of the existing capacity i.e. to 1,800 TMTPA from the existing level of 1,200 TMTPA to process all available diesel feed streams. In order to have clarity the HSD specifications for BS-III, BS-V & BS-V HSD is tabulated below: Specifications for Diesel SL Attribute Unit BS-III BS-IV BS-V No. 1 Density @15°C kg/m3, max 820-845 820-845 820–845 2 Distillation T95 °C max 360 360 360 3 Sulphur ppm max 350 50 10 4 Cetane No min. 51 51 51 5 Cetane Index min. 46 46 46 Specifications for Diesel SL Attribute Unit BS-III BS-IV BS-V No. 6 Flash Point °C min. 35 35 42 7 Viscosity @ 40°C cSt 2.0−4.5 2.0−4.5 2.0–4.5 8 PAH % wt. max 11 11 11 9 Total Contaminants mg/kg max 24 24 24 10 RCR on 10% Residue % wt. max 0.3 0.3 0.3 11 Water Content mg/kg max 200 200 200 Lubricity, Corrected 12 Wear Scar Diameter Microns, max 460 460 460 (WSD) @ 60°C 13 Ash % wt. max 0.01 0.01 0.01 14 Cold Filter Plugging Point 14a Summer, max °C 18 18 18 14b Winter, max °C 6 6 6 15 Oxidation stability g/m3, max 25 25 25 Copper strip corrosion 16 Rating Class 1 Class 1 Class 1 for 3 hrs @ 50°C, max (C) CRU-MSQ Revamp to meet BS-V/VI HSD specification: In order to meet the aromatic limit of 35 vol% in MS , the Light Naphtha ISOM unit will have to be revamped with a new catalyst along with re-orientation of process configuration to produce Isomerate of RON 90 from the present level of 85. Possibility of RON improvement by changing the catalyst from present zeolite based catalyst to Sulfated Zirconia based catalyst has been discussed with Licensors. Further to meet Sulfur level of < 10 ppm in BS-V MS a new Naphtha Hydrotreater will have to be installed for hydrodesulphurization of the straight run naphtha . A detailed study of the Light Naphtha Isom unit s required to be carried out for identifying the modifications and for preparation of the feasibility report. In order to absorb all the naptha into MS, the capacity revamp of the CRU unit is required to be increased from the present 160 TMTPA to around 200 TMTPA. Further, BGR is exploring the option of revamping the existing Isomerisation unit with an additional reactor for improving Isomerate RON from present 84-85 to 90 -91 for which, M/s GTC Technologies is being consulted for putting up an additional reactor with Sulfated Zirconia based catalyst. (D) Selective Desulphurisation Unit (SDS): SDS is a trickle bed reactor system with single stage once through down flow configuration. The hydrogen consumption is very low and the reduction in sulfur is very negligible. The SDS reactor is filled with proprietary catalyst developed by IOC R&D and the conventional guard bed at the top sufficient enough to handle silica rich Coker streams. The key functionality of the catalyst is to selectively saturate the diolefins and shift low molecular weight sulfur compounds to high molecular weight sulfur compounds. These diolefins are selectively removed under very mild conditions of hydrotreating in SDS Reactor. Sulfur Shift mechanism, the low boiling sulfur compounds are converted to high boiling sulfur compounds by combination of low boiling sulfur compounds with olefins. Due to this reaction, it is possible to segregate the light boiling range gasoline from full range gasoline by distillation before hydrodesulfurization, since all of its sulfur are shifted to high boiling region. The diolefins treated & sulfur shifted stream is separated in to light & heavy cut through a conventional splitter. The lighter cut which is olefins rich (octane potential) & low sulfur stream is taken to gasoline pool for blending without any post treatment. In this stream, the sulfur content is low due to the sulfur shift mechanism, all low boiling sulfur compounds are ended up in the heavy cut. (E) INDMAX Unit along with Indmax Gasoline De-Sulphurisation Unit: (E.1) INDMAX Unit Presently, Coker Naphtha and Coker Gas Oil & Coker Fuel Oil from Delayed Coker Unit are being blended and evacuated as BS-II Motor Spirit (MS) and LDO & LVFO respectively. With the implementation of Euro-III equivalent fuel norms effective from 2010, it will not be possible to blend Coker Naphtha in the MS pool and will surplus as Naphtha. Also, increasing availability and demand of Natural Gas, the demand of Naphtha and LDO/LVFO (Black Oil) are decreasing day by day. In view of the above, BGR is implementing INDMAX Unit of 740 TMT per annum capacity at BGR to process Coker Naphtha, Coker Heavy Gasoil (CHGO), Reduced Black Oil (RCO) and Black Oil components and thereby to increase value added products LPG and MS. The feed to the INDMAX Unit of BGR comprises of Coker Naphtha (CN), Coker Heavy Gasoil (CHGO) and Coker Fuel Oil (CFO) from Delayed Coker units & Reduced Crude Oil (RCO) ex Crude Distillation units. INDMAX is proprietary process developed and patented by IOCL (R&D) similar to Residue Fluid Catalytic Cracking (RFCC) process except that the catalyst system and operating conditions are different.

  • Residuum Processing
    CHAPTER SIX Residuum Processing DELAYED COKING Delayed coking is a thermal process in which the vacuum residue from crude distillation is heated in a furnace then confined in a reaction zone or coke drum under proper operating conditions of temperature and pressure until the unvaporized portion of the furnace effluent is converted to vapor and coke. Delayed coking is an endothermic reaction, with the furnace supplying the necessary heat for the coking reactions. The reactions in the delayed coking are complex. In the initial phase, the feed is partially vaporized and cracked as it passes through the furnace. In the next step, cracking of the vapor occurs as it passes through the drum. In the final step, succes- sive cracking and polymerization of the liquid confined in the drum takes place at high temperatures, until the liquid is converted into vapor and coke. The coke produced in the delayed coker is almost pure carbon contain- ing some of the impurities of the feed, such as sulfur and metals. THE DELAYED COKING PROCESS The reduced crude or vacuum resid enters the coke fractionator bottom surge zone (see Figure 6-1). The feed is mixed with recycle condensed in the bottom section of the fractionator and pumped by heater charge pump P-04 through coke heater H-Ol, where the charge is rapidly heated to the desired temperature for coke formation in the coke drums. Steam is injected in each heater coil to maintain the required minimum velocity and residence time and suppress the formation of coke in the heater coils.

ABSTRACT The primary method to remove sulfur , improve cetane index and reduce aromatic content of gas oil / diesel is hydroprocessing. Therefore, the significant advancements in hydrotreating of light coker gas oil (LCGO) derived from delayed coker unit at Suez Oil Processing Company have been performed in a cata-test fixed bed micro-reactor unit, using a commercial CoMo/AljOj Catalyst after sulfidation. The operating conditions were varied in order to study the impact of these processes conditions (temperature;275-400"C, hydrogen pressure;30-85 bar, and hourly space velocity; 0.5-1.5h"' ) on the yield , and quality of gas oil within hydrotreating regime, which is the important to aid the optimization of the process from the environmental regulations and national market demands point of view. The present investigation is conducted on the LCGO, which was selected as a hydrotreated feedstock due to its higher unsaturated hydrocarbon contents ( aromatics and olefins) and heteroatom (sulfur and nitrogen), in order to produce an upgraded gas oil acceptable as transportation fuel according to the TESCE, Vol. 30, No.2 <s^ >' December 2004 environmental and national regulations, and / or the world wide fuel charter December 2002. 1-INTRODUCTION In recent years, the development and use" of "environmentally friendly" fuels has had high priority throughout the world.

  • Petroleum Residue Upgrading Via Delayed Coking: a Review
    Petroleum Residue Upgrading Via Delayed Coking: A Review Ashish N. Sawarkar, Aniruddha B. Pandit, Shriniwas D. Samant and Jyeshtharaj B. Joshi* Institute of Chemical Technology, University of Mumbai, N. P. Marg, Matunga, Mumbai, Maharashtra, 400019, India World petroleum residue processing capacity has reached about 725 million metric tons per annum (MMTPA). The high demand for transportation fuels and the ever-rising heavy nature of crude oil have resulted in a renewed interest in the bottom-of-the-barrel processing using various conver- sion processes. Delayed coking, known for processing virtually any refi nery stream (which not only poses a serious threat to environment, but also involves a disposal cost) has garnered tremendous importance in the current refi ning scenario. Needle coke obtained from delayed coking process is a highly sought-after product, which is used in electric arc furnaces (in the form of graphite electrodes) in steel making applications. In the present communication, the published literature has been extensively analyzed and a state-of-the-art review has been written that includes: (1) importance and place of delayed coking as a residue upgrading process in the current refi ning scenario; (2) coking mechanism and kinetics; (3) design aspects; (4) feedstocks suitable for the production of needle coke; (5) characteristics of needle coke; (6) factors affecting needle coke quality and quantity; and (7) future market for needle coke. An attempt has been made to get the above-mentioned aspects together in a coherent theme so that the information is available at a glance and could be of signifi cant use for researchers and practising refi ners.

  • Refinery Scheme's Mass Targeting and Bottom
    REFINERY SCHEME’S MASS TARGETING AND BOTTOM SECTION SYNTHESIS FOR HEAVY OIL A Thesis by ABDULAZIZ ABDULKAREEM A ALNAJJAR Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, Mahmoud M.El-Halwagi Committee Members, M. Sam Mannan Sergiy Butenko Head of Department, M. Nazmul Karim December 2015 Major Subject: Chemical Engineering Copyright 2015 Abdulaziz A. Alnajjar ABSTRACT This work evaluates the introduction of heavy oil in a refinery as a first step. The first step will yield an increase in the production of the bottom products (vacuum residue, gas oil and diesel). It will also reduce the production of the light products (gases, LPG and naphtha) from ADU/VDU for oil with API above 20. However, we showed that if the heavy oil is below 20 API, the vacuum residue will be the only increasing product. This also reflects on the unit capital cost. The power and steam required by the refinery should also increase as crude oil becomes heavier due to the high amount of steam used in the delayed coker unit. Nevertheless, the fuel for the fire heaters does not show the expected change as compared to the model. The report goes to a further step by replacing bottom product processes with gasification and syngas routes. This step results to reduce the total production of fuel. Therefore, the fuel gasification paths MTG, DME (direct and indirect), and FT are more valuable than other gasification paths. All fuel paths showed a similar amount of fuel production, yielding extra production around 100,000 lb/hr compared to the base case.

Box 40 Come By Chance, NL A0B 1N0 Print Date July 5, 2019 DELAYED COKER PROJECT Executive Summary This document provides the Project Registration for the construction and operation of a Delayed Coker complex equipped with a small integrated Crude Oil Fractionation Unit, a Distillate Hydrotreater, and assorted utilities. NARL Fuels LP, a fully owned subsidiary of North Atlantic Refining Ltd. Refinery (“NARL”), proposes to construct and operate this facility in Come by Chance, northwest of the existing NARL refinery. Effective, January 1, 2020, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will implement a global cap of 0.5% sulfur on fuel oil used by all ocean-going vessels. As a result, existing markets for residual fuel oil higher than 0.5% sulfur are predicted to experience significant declines. Combined with the predicted increases in heavy sour and medium sour crude production, this will require an estimated three million barrels per day of additional Delayed Coker capacity to be built over the next twenty years worldwide. Operation of the Delayed Coker will consume vacuum residue from the adjacent NARL Refinery allowing for the shutdown of its Visbreaking Unit. The Integrated Crude Fractionation unit will operate on crude sourced from offshore Newfoundland and elsewhere.
