METHOD FOR EXTRACTION OF LINEAR HYDROCARBONS FROM HYDROCARBON FEED

摘要

In the present disclosure, a cost efficient process for the extraction of linear hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbon feed is disclosed wherein some of the fluid media used in the extraction process are used further without being subjected to any recovery methods and/or recovered by distillation using low temperature waste heat available from refineries and/or recovered without requiring any heat energy and are used further in the extraction of linear hydrocarbons. The process for extraction of linear hydrocarbons as disclosed in the present disclosure completely eliminates the use of heat energy during the fluid media recovery, thereby minimizing the high operation cost involved with the conventional extraction methods.
