| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 8080700 | System and method for reducing decomposition byproducts in a methanol to olefin reactor system The invention relates to a method for forming olefins from an oxygenate-containing feedstock, comprising contacting the at least partially vaporized feed comprising oxygenates with a first catalyst upstream of an OTO reactor, the first catalyst consisting of a react... | 12/20/2011 |
| 8075696 | Method of recovering heat transfer in reactor and regenerator effluent coolers This invention relates to a method for removing fouling from a heat transfer surface, such as a heat exchanger. The method involves conducting a vapor containing a scouring material to the heat transfer surface and contacting the scouring material with the foulant, ... | 12/13/2011 |
| 7741528 | Method of separating condensed liquid from an olefin stream This invention is to a process for separating condensed water and entrained solids from an olefin stream so that fouling of the separation equipment by the entrained solids is reduced or eliminated. The process involves injecting an antifouling agent into a water co... | 06/22/2010 |
| 7594989 | Enhanced thermal upgrading of heavy oil using aromatic polysulfonic acid salts A method for upgrading heavy oils by contacting the heavy oil with a water-soluble aromatic polysulfonic acid salt and then thermally treating the contacted heavy oil. The polysulfonic acid salt can be recovered and recycled from contacting the heavy oil. The polysu... | 09/29/2009 |
| 7531705 | Method for adding heat to a reactor system used to convert oxygenates to olefins The present invention provides a method for adding heat to a reactor system used to convert oxygenates to olefin, in which supplemental heat is added with a heating fuel, e.g., a torch oil, having low autoignition temperature, low sulfur, and low nitrogen content. | 05/12/2009 |
| 7491313 | Two-step hydroprocessing method for heavy hydrocarbon oil A method is disclosed for hydroprocessing a heavy hydrocarbon oil, comprising a first hydroprocessing step of bringing a heavy hydrocarbon oil into contact with a Catalyst (1) with a certain specific surface area and pore size distribution in the presence of hydroge... | 02/17/2009 |
| 7306713 | Delayed coking process for producing free-flowing coke using a substantially metals-free additive A delayed coking process for making substantially free-flowing shot coke. A coker feedstock, such as a vacuum residuum, is treated with an additive, such as a elemental sulfur, high surface area substantially metals-free solids, process fines, a mineral acid anhydri... | 12/11/2007 |
| 7303664 | Delayed coking process for producing free-flowing coke using a metals-containing additive A delayed coking process for making substantially free-flowing coke, preferably shot coke. A coker feedstock, such as a vacuum residuum, is heated in a heating zone to coking temperatures then conducted to a coking zone wherein volatiles are collected overhead and c... | 12/04/2007 |
| 6702945 | Ionic membranes for organic sulfur separation from liquid hydrocarbon solutions Methods for the separation of sulfur compounds from a hydrocarbon mixture using an ionic membrane are provided. Preferred ionic membranes are Nafion.RTM.-type (polymers of perfluorosulfonic acid) membranes and derivatives thereof. Preferred applications i... | 03/09/2004 |
| 6093310 | FCC feed injection using subcooled water sparging for enhanced feed atomization Atomization of a high boiling point, hot liquid, such as a hydrocarbon feed oil for a fluid cat cracker, is enhanced by injecting subcooled water into the hot liquid, to form a two-phase fluid of the liquid and steam, upstream of the atomization. The hot ... | 07/25/2000 |
