More Information
Summary:A method of producing oil-based components is disclosed which includes providing VGO and slack wax; combining the VGO as a major component and the slack wax as a minor component to provide a feedstock; subjecting the feedstock to hydrocracking to provide a first effluent; fractionating the first effluent to provide at least a bottom fraction and a middle distillate fraction; recovering the bottom fraction and the middle distillate fraction. A method for improving a viscosity index of base oil includes subjecting the bottom fraction to a dewaxing step to provide a second effluent; fractionating the second effluent to provide at least a middle distillate and base oil; and recovering the middle distillate and the base oil.
