METHOD FOR PERFORMING THERMAL CRACKING OF HYDROCARBON MATERIAL

摘要

FIELD: petroleum processing. SUBSTANCE: process consists in heating material in furnace, feeding heated material into reaction chamber, and separating stream coming out of reaction chamber into light and heavy product streams. The latter stream is transferred toward vacuum distillation column through control valve directing the stream upward over vertical pipeline, its length providing the magnitude of pressure of liquid in the upper end of vertical pipeline high enough to suppress evaporation in the lower end of pipeline. Further part of the pipeline in the direction to vacuum distillation column is configured in such a way that pressure of the liquid in its outlet were matched with pressure of the liquid in vacuum distillation column. EFFECT: enhanced process efficiency. 4 cl, 2 dwgr
