Inverting the processing sequence converts oxygenates to hydrocarbons, reducing de-oiling stages and capital costs.
Hydrogenating Fischer-Tropsch streams before distillation improves wax colour and stability.
Skipping pre-hydrogenation during distillation prevents degradation, enabling hard wax production with superior thermal stability.
Segmenting Fischer-Tropsch streams reduces equipment size and corrosion while maintaining production capacity.
Distilling Fischer-Tropsch feed without initial hydrogenation while applying hydrofinishing to prevent degradation and maintain high Saybolt color.
Pre-fractionation layer crystallization reduces solvent evaporation energy and filter surface requirements for dewaxed oil production.
Hydroisomerization of Fischer-Tropsch wax fractions yields microcrystalline wax with high multiple methyl branched paraffins, resolving impurity trade-offs.
Hydroisomerization dewaxing of waxy light neutral base oil blended with pyrolyzed polyethylene wax.
Controlled hydrotreating severity expands viable feedstock ranges while maintaining high yields of lubricant base oils.
Hydro-finishing upgrades high oil paraffin waxes to meet FDA food grade standards.
