【Ten Years of Great Progress in Chemical Technology】055-2020: China’s First 1,000-ton-scale Industrial Demonstration Facility for the Lightening of Heavy Aromatics
Thread Content
Ten years of remarkable progress in chemical technology – praise for China’s prosperity and strength. By contributing our ideas, we can foster more active participation from everyone. HaiChuan becomes even better with your involvement; we welcome everyone to join in the forum discussions. Everyone should focus on safety and know how to handle emergencies. ********************************************* On November 1, 2020, it was announced that China’s first industrial demonstration facility for the lightening of heavy aromatics on a scale of 1,000 tons per year had been successfully put into operation at CNOOC Zhoushan Petrochemical Co., Ltd. This marks the official launch of the group company’s research project titled “Development of technologies for lightening heavy aromatics at a rate of 1,000 tons per year”.
“The “Development of Technology for the Lightening of 1,000 tons/year of Heavy Aromatics” project focuses on addressing the issues related to the environmental-friendly disposal and value-added utilization of heavy aromatics in refineries across the country, with the goal of developing a technical package for the lightening of heavy aromatics at a capacity of 200,000 tons per year. The advantage of this technology is that it uses inexpensive C10+ heavy aromatics as raw materials to produce high-value-added low-carbon aromatics and high-octane gasoline blending components, thereby yielding good economic benefits. Furthermore, the application of this technology can also prevent the addition of heavy aromatics to diesel, which would otherwise lead to a decrease in the diesel cetane number and subsequent air pollution issues. Furthermore, the research findings of this project can be extended to applications such as the lightening of heavy aromatics through adsorption separation, and the lightening of C9 heavy aromatics via ethylene cracking.
