Integrated Process For Producing Xylenes And High Purity Benzene

View page
US Patent:
7544848, Jun 9, 2009
Filed:
Jun 25, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/146043
Inventors:
Edward M. Casey - Mount Prospect IL, US
Patrick J. Silady - Niles IL, US
Antoine Negiz - Wilmette IL, US
Gregory R. Werba - Arlington Heights IL, US
Assignee:
UOP LLC - Des Plaines IL
International Classification:
C07C 6/08
US Classification:
585470, 585475
Abstract:
Processes and apparatus are provided that provide high yields of xylenes per unit of aromatic-containing feed while enabling a high purity benzene co-product to be obtained without the need for an extraction or distillation to remove Cnaphthenes. The processes of this invention include a transalkylation section and a disproportionation section in the benzene and toluene-containing feed is directly provided to the transalkylation section and in which a benzene recycle loop in the transalkylation section isolates the disproportionation section from Cnaphthenes.

Processes For Increasing The Overall Aromatics And Xylenes Yield In An Aromatics Complex

View page
US Patent:
8431758, Apr 30, 2013
Filed:
Sep 16, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/883977
Inventors:
Stanley J. Frey - Palatine IL, US
Jason T. Corradi - Arlington Heights IL, US
Gregory Werba - Arlington Heights IL, US
Assignee:
UOP LLC - Des Plaines IL
International Classification:
C07C 2/66
C07C 5/27
US Classification:
585319, 585470, 585474, 585477
Abstract:
Processes for increasing overall aromatics and xylenes yield in an aromatics complex are provided. A C+ aromatics stream from an aromatics-rich reformate is separated into a Caromatics fraction and a C+ aromatics fraction comprising higher alkyl group-substituted Cand Caromatics. The C+ aromatics fraction is separated into a lighter boiling, higher alkyl group-substituted Cor C/Caromatics fraction and a heavier boiling, C+ or C+ aromatics fraction. The lighter boiling, higher alkyl group-substituted Cor C/Caromatics fraction is isomerized to convert a portion of the higher alkyl group-substituted Cor C/Caromatics therein into methyl-enriched Caromatics or methyl-enriched C/Caromatics. The methyl-enriched C+ aromatics stream comprising the methyl-enriched C9+ aromatics stream or the methyl-enriched C/Caromatics is transalkylated with a toluene-containing stream.

US Patent:
8609922, Dec 17, 2013
Filed:
Aug 25, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/868286
Inventors:
Gregory R. Werba - Arlington Heights IL, US
Xin X. Zhu - Long Grove IL, US
Phillip F. Daly - Palatine IL, US
Saadet Ulas Acikgoz - Des Plaines IL, US
Jason T. Corradi - Arlington Heights IL, US

Assignee:
UOP LLC - Des Plaines IL
International Classification:
C07C 7/04
C07C 7/12
C07C 15/08
B01D 3/14
US Classification:
585478, 203 25, 203 27, 203 75, 203 77, 203 78, 203 80, 203 82, 203 84, 203DIG 8, 585805, 585822, 585828, 585910
Abstract:
An aromatics complex producing one or more xylene isomers offers a large number of opportunities to conserve energy by heat exchange within the complex. One previously unrecognized opportunity is through providing two parallel distillation columns operating at different pressures to separate Caromatics from C+ aromatics. The parallel columns offer additional opportunities to conserve energy within the complex through heat exchange in associated xylene recovery facilities.
