More Information
Summary:A process for distilling paraffinic hydrocarbons comprises feeding a Fischer-Tropsh derived paraffinic hydrocarbon feedstock comprising heavy paraffinic hydrocarbons and, optionally, light and/or medium paraffinic hydrocarbons, into a distillation column. The distillation column is operated to produce usable waqx products. An overhead stream, a bottom stream, and at least one side stream, are withdrawn from the distillation column. All the wax products obtained are usable wax products.
