Abstract

Systems and methods for producing n-paraffins are provided. The method can include hydroprocessing at least a portion of a kerosene fraction recovered from a thermally cracked hydrocarbon product to produce a hydroprocessed kerosene product comprising n-paraffins. The n-paraffins can be separated from the hydroprocessed kerosene product to produce an n-paraffins product.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application having Ser. No. 61 / 113,935, filed on Nov. 12, 2008, which is incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to systems and methods for producing normal paraffins or linear paraffins (“n-paraffins”) from low value feedstocks. More particularly, embodiments of the present invention relate to systems and methods for producing n-paraffins from a kerosene fraction recovered from a thermally cracked hydrocarbon.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]N-paraffins are traditionally produced from a high quality kerosene fraction of crude oil that is recovered from an atmospheric distillation unit (“ADU”). Such kerosene fraction is referred to as “straight-run kerosene.” The n-paraffins product separated from straight-run kerosene is often converted to linear alkyl ben...
