Integrating An Atmospheric Fractionator With A Diluent Recovery Unit And A Resid Hydrocracker

摘要

This is a unique way to optimize an existing refinery to process heavy bitumen. The upgrade utilizes a diluent recovery unit (DRU) in front of a Resid Hydrocracker. The recovered bitumen from the Resid Hydrocracker is fed to an integrated atmospheric fractionator to convert the light sweet refinery to diluted bitumen.
