JNTUK B.Tech Heavy Oil Processing gives you detail information of Heavy Oil Processing R13 syllabus It will be help full to understand you complete curriculum of the year.
Learning Objectives: The students will be able to understand
- Significance of the heavy oils/Resid upgrading.
- Kinetics involved in processing the heavy oils.
- Processes and operating conditions for converting the heavy oils to lighter fractions and other by-products.
- Catalytic and non – catalytic conversion processes that involved in Hydrogen addition processes.
UNIT-I: General considerations: Over view of heavy oil processing. Physical properties with carbon rejection: Deasphalting- Deasphalting process- Process development, Industrial plants-Variants of the process- Choice of operating conditions- Nature of solvent- Influence of temperature, Influence of feedstock characteristics- Uses and further processing of products- Deasphalting oils, Possible uses of asphalts.
UNIT-II: Carbon rejecting processes by thermal treatment: Different processes- Common points and specific features- Points in common, specific features and differences, Delayed coking and similar processes-Fluid coking and similar processes.
UNIT-III: Resid cat cracking– Performance of thermal carbon rejection processes- Pyrolysis processes, Resid cat cracking – Products and further uses- Products from pyrolysis processes- Products from resid cat cracking.
UNIT- IV: Thermal conversion processes: Thermal conversion processes without hydrogen visbreaking- Chemistry of visbreaking – Visbreaking processes-Uses and further refining products. Noncatalytic conversion processes under hydrogen pressure: Hydrovisbreaking- Hydrogen donor processes- Slurry processes under hydrogen pressure.
UNIT- V: Catalytic conversion under hydrogen pressure: Catalytic hydrotreating–Catalyst characteristics- Demetallization catalysts, Hydrorefining catalysts- Operating conditions and kinetics. Types of catalytic hydrotreating processes: Fixed bed processes, moving bed processes, ebullated bed processes. Upgrading and uses of products.
UNIT- VI : Resid processing schemes: Catalytic hydroconversion and visbreaking- Deasphalting and delayed coking- Treating of heavy crudes – Hydrotreating and coking.
Outcomes: The students will be able to
- Know how to upgrade low value, near zero demand heavy oils to high value and high demand products.
- Characterize heavy oils containing asphaltenes, Resins etc.
- Familiarize with hydrogen addition and Carbon Rejection processes
