The invention discloses a process for performing normal
vacuum distillation on
light crude oil, which comprises the step of
cutting the
light crude oil into various oil distillates after forerunning, atmospheric
distillation and
vacuum distillation, wherein in the forerunning process, the
feed temperature of a primary
tower is controlled between 235 and 247 DEG C; and in the atmospheric
distillation, the load of a normal primary
reboiler is controlled between 1.8 and 2.1 MMkal / hr, the secondary steam stripping steam quantity is controlled between 525 and 575 Kg / hr, and the heat removal ratio of the
tower top to the top circulation to the first middle part to the second middle part of an
atmospheric column is equal to 1:2.2-2.5:3.2-4.2 : 4.6-5.2. The process can meet the requirements on
processing the mixed raw oil containing a lot of light oil, in particular the mixed raw oil of which the yield of distillate oil is not less than 52 percent of that of the light oil before the temperature reaches 360 DEG C. The upper separation effect of the
atmospheric column becomes good, and the quality of the main product is guaranteed. The
processing quantity of the
crude oil can reach 7.50 to 8.50 million tons per year, the yield of
naphtha is not less than 1.00 million
ton per year, and the yield of
wax is at least 0.18 million
ton per year. The main devices are not changed to save the investment greatly. In the process of adjustment, the work is not necessary to be stopped so that the process has the characteristic of easy operation, and can meet the requirement on long period of running.
