INTEGRATED HEAVY OIL PYROLYSIS PROCESS

摘要

A process and system for the production of olefins from heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks. A heavy hydrocarbon feed is first pretreated at high pressure and moderate temperatures to preferentially remove coke precursors in a liquid product. The pretreated hydrocarbon is then separated into lighter and heavier fractions; the lighter fraction being further thermally cracked to produce olefins.
