More Information
Summary:Process scheme configurations are disclosed that enable conversion of crude oil feeds with several processing units in an integrated manner into petrochemicals. The designs utilize minimum capital expenditures to prepare suitable feedstocks for the steam cracker complex. The integrated process for converting crude oil to petrochemical products including olefins and aromatics, and fuel products, includes mixed feed steam cracking and gas oil steam cracking. Feeds to the mixed feed steam cracker include light products and naphtha from hydroprocessing zones within the battery limits, recycle streams from the C3 and C4 olefins recovery steps, and raffinate from a pyrolysis gasoline aromatics extraction zone within the battery limits. Feeds to the gas oil steam cracker include gas oil range intermediates from the vacuum gas oil hydroprocessing zone. Furthermore, vacuum residue is processed in a delayed coker unit to produce coker naphtha, which is hydrotreated and passed as additional feed to aromatics extraction zone and/or the mixed feed steam cracker, and coker gas oil range intermediates as additional feed to the gas oil hydroprocessing zone.
