Abstract

Eine Plattform zur Ölförderung mit einem Grundkörper, der eine Ölfördereinrichtung umfasst, und mit einer Trägerstruktur für den Grundkörper, ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Grundkörper zusätzlich eine Erdölraffinerie umfasst.A platform for oil production with a base body, which comprises an oil delivery device, and with a support structure for the base body, is characterized in that the base body additionally comprises an oil refinery.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Plattform zur Ölförderung mit einem Grundkörper, der eine Ölförderanlage umfasst, und mit einer Trägerstruktur für den Grundkörper.The present invention relates to a platform for oil production with a base body, which comprises an oil production system, and with a support structure for the base body.

Solche Plattformen zur Ölforderung sind aus dem Stand der Technik allgemein bekannt. In der Regel werden solche Plattformen Offshore eingesetzt und haben eine Trägerstruktur, mit der sie entweder auf einem Untergrund fixiert sind oder im Wasser schwimmen können. Für die vorliegende Erfindung ist die Trägerstruktur nicht wesentlich, so dass auf diese nicht näher eingegangen wird.Such platforms for oil production are generally known from the prior art. As a rule, such platforms are used offshore and have a support structure with which they are either fixed on a surface or can swim in the water. The support structure is not essential for the present invention, so that it will not be discussed in more detail.

Die Plattformen zur Ölförderung weisen jeweils eine Ölförderanlage auf, mit der Öl aus einer Erdöllagerstätte entnommen werden kann. Dies erfolgt regelmäßig mithilfe einer Bohreinrichtung, mit der in tiefere Erdschichten eingedrungen und Erdöl aus der Lagerstätte an die Oberfläche gefördert und über Pipelines an einen Lagerort befördert werden kann. Auch die Technik der Ölförderanlage ist für die vorliegende Erfindung an sich nicht relevant, so dass auch auf diese nicht in Einzelheiten eingegangen wird.The platforms for oil production each have an oil production system with which oil can be extracted from an oil deposit. This is done regularly with the help of a drilling device that can penetrate deeper layers of the earth and extract oil from the reservoir to the surface and be transported to a storage location via pipelines. The technology of the oil production system is also not relevant per se for the present invention, so that it is not dealt with in detail either.

Der Nachteil einer zur Ölförderung betriebenen Plattform des Standes der Technik besteht darin, dass das über eine solche Plattform geförderte Erdöl über Pipelines oder über eine Kombination aus Tankschiffen und Pipelines zu einer Raffinerie verbracht werden muss, die in räumlicher Entfernung zu der Plattform auf dem Festland für die Verarbeitung von Erdöl errichtet worden ist.The disadvantage of a platform of the prior art operated for oil production is that the oil extracted via such a platform is transported to a refinery via pipelines or via a combination of tankers and pipelines which is located in the mainland for oil processing.

Der Transport des an der Plattform geförderten Erdöls zu einer entfernten Raffinerie ist mit Kosten und mit Materialverlusten verbunden. Die Kosten entstehen durch den Bau und den Betrieb von Pipelines sowie durch Umladung oder Weiterleitung verbundenen Arbeitskosten. Materialverluste entstehen durch Leckagen, durch nicht verwertbare Restmengen in Zwischenlagern etc.Transporting the oil extracted on the platform to a remote refinery is costly and wasteful of material. The costs arise from the construction and operation of pipelines as well as labor costs associated with reloading or forwarding. Material losses are caused by leakages, by unusable residual quantities in interim storage facilities, etc.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist daher, die Gewinnung eines auf Erdöl basierenden organischen Brennstoffs zu optimieren.The object of the present invention is therefore to optimize the production of an oil-based organic fuel.

Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass der Grundkörper zusätzlich eine Erdölraffinerie umfasst.The object is achieved in that the base body additionally comprises an oil refinery.

Die der vorliegenden Erfindung zugrunde liegende Idee ist, eine vollständige Erdölraffinerie in eine Plattform zur Ölforderung zu integrieren. Das klingt zunächst visionär, ist aber aufgrund bekannter Verfahren, zum Beispiel aus DE 10 2006 054 506 A1 , DE 10 2005 056 735 A1 und EP 1 538 191 A1 technisch umsetzbar. Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich mit der konstruktiven Anpassung einer Plattform zur Ölforderung zur zusätzlichen Durchführung eines zum Beispiel aus dem vorgenannten Stand der Technik bekannten Verfahrens. Natürlich können auch andere Verfahren zur Verarbeitung von Erdöl auf einer erfindungsgemäßen Plattform zur Ölforderung umgesetzt werden, nachweislich durchführbar sind aber in jedem Falle die in den vorgenannten Druckschriften des Standes der Technik genannten Verfahren, wenn der Raum begrenzt ist. Für die Durchführung des an sich bereits bekannten Verfahrens ist die Anpassung des begrenzten Raumes auf einer Ölplattform erforderlich. Das ist das Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung.The idea underlying the present invention is to integrate a complete petroleum refinery into a platform for oil production. This may sound visionary at first, but it is over due to known processes, for example DE 10 2006 054 506 A1 . DE 10 2005 056 735 A1 and EP 1 538 191 A1 technically feasible. The present invention is concerned with the constructive adaptation of a platform for oil requirements for the additional implementation of a method known, for example, from the aforementioned prior art. Of course, other processes for processing petroleum can also be implemented on a platform for oil production according to the invention, and this can be demonstrated to be feasible are in any case the methods mentioned in the aforementioned prior art documents if the space is limited. In order to carry out the method, which is known per se, it is necessary to adapt the limited space on an oil platform. That is the aim of the present invention.

Ein Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, dass die Erdölraffinerie konzentrisch zum Grundkörper angeordnet ist. Die konzentrische Anordnung zum Grundkörper der Plattform sorgt für eine günstige Gewichtsverteilung am Grundkörper und somit auf der Plattform.An advantage of the present invention is that the petroleum refinery is arranged concentrically with the base body. The concentric arrangement to the base body of the platform ensures a favorable weight distribution on the base body and thus on the platform.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, dass die Erdölraffinerie einen Ringbehälter umfasst, der im Wesentlichen um den Grundkörper herum angeordnet ist. Der Ringbehälter dient zur Aufnahme von Erdöl bzw. eines Erdölgemischs mit diversen Beiprodukten, zum Beispiel einem Katalysator und Kalk, das in dem Ringbehälter in einer Hauptrichtung strömen kann.Another advantage of the present invention is that the petroleum refinery comprises an annular container which is arranged essentially around the base body. The ring container serves to hold petroleum or a petroleum mixture with various by-products, for example a catalyst and lime, which can flow in the ring container in a main direction.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, dass die Erdölraffinerie wenigstens eine Mischturbine aufweist. In einer Mischturbine werden Teile des im Ringbehälter strömenden Fluids mit Zusatzstoffen, wie zum Beispiel einem Katalysator und Kalk, gemischt und dem Ringbehälter wieder zugeführt.Another advantage of the present invention is that the petroleum refinery has at least one mixing turbine. In a mixing turbine, parts of the fluid flowing in the ring container are mixed with additives, such as a catalyst and lime, and fed back to the ring container.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung ist auch, dass die Erdölraffinerie wenigstens eine Destillationskolonne aufweist. In der Destillationskolonne können Dampfanteile des im Ringbehälter strömenden Fluids destilliert werden.Another advantage of the present invention is that the petroleum refinery has at least one distillation column. Vapor portions of the fluid flowing in the ring container can be distilled in the distillation column.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, dass die Destillationskolonne und die wenigstens eine Mischturbine auf einer Ebene des Grundkörpers angeordnet sind. Durch die Anordnung der Destillationskolonne und der wenigstens einen Mischturbine auf einer Ebene des Grundkörpers ist eine geometrische Anordnung in Bezug zur Plattform leichter möglich.Another advantage of the present invention is that the distillation column and the at least one mixing turbine are arranged on one level of the base body. By arranging the distillation column and the at least one mixing turbine on one level of the base body, a geometric arrangement in relation to the platform is more easily possible.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, dass der Ringbehälter eine Ringbarriere um die Ebene des Grundkörpers bildet. Dadurch schließt der Ringbehälter die für die Erdölraffinerie vorgesehene Ebene des Grundkörpers räumlich nach außen ab und ermöglicht eine geometrische Anordnung weiterer Bauteile im Zentrum des Ringbehälters.Another advantage of the present invention is that the ring container forms an annular barrier around the plane of the base body. As a result, the ring container closes off the level of the base body provided for the oil refinery spatially and enables a geometrical arrangement of further components in the center of the ring container.

Weitere Vorteile der vorliegenden Erfindung ergeben sich aus den weiteren Merkmalen der Unteransprüche.Further advantages of the present invention result from the further features of the subclaims.

Eine Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand der einzigen Figur näher beschrieben.An embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the single figure.

Die Figur zeigt eine Draufsicht auf eine Plattform gemäß vorliegender Erfindung mit einer in die Plattform integrierten Erdölraffinerie.The figure shows a top view of a platform according to the present invention with an oil refinery integrated into the platform.

Die Darstellung in der Figur ist rein schematisch und dient zur klaren Darstellung der vorliegenden Erfindung. Insofern sind alle Einzelheiten einer Ölförderanlage, einer Trägerstruktur, aber auch einer Erdölraffinerie, die für die Konstruktion und den Betrieb üblich sind und dem Fachmann daher bekannt sind, hier weggelassen.The illustration in the figure is purely schematic and serves to clearly illustrate the present invention. In this respect, all the details of an oil production system, a support structure, but also an oil refinery, which are customary for the construction and operation and are therefore known to the person skilled in the art, are omitted here.

Für die Durchführung der vorliegenden Erfindung kann eine herkömmliche Plattform zur Ölforderung genutzt werden, in welche eine Erdölraffinerie mit den üblichen Mitteln, aber unter Berücksichtigung der konstruktiven Voraussetzungen gemäß vorliegender Erfindung integriert werden kann.For the implementation of the present invention, a conventional platform for oil production can be used, in which an oil refinery can be integrated with the usual means, but taking into account the design requirements according to the present invention.

Für die Durchführung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es also nicht wesentlich, in welcher Form die einzelnen Leitungen an jeweiligen Bauteilen angeschlossen sind oder welche Durchmesser einzelne Leitungen haben. Auch die genaue Führung der Leitungen auf der Plattform ist nicht wesentlich. Zudem gibt es eine Vielzahl von Ventilen, Steuereinrichtungen zum Steuern einer Durchflussmenge, einer Temperatur, eines Druckes und anderer Parameter, die hier für die vorliegende Erfindung nicht von Bedeutung sind. Es können übliche Ventile, Antriebe und/oder Steuereinrichtungen verwendet werden.It is therefore not essential for the implementation of the present invention in what form the individual lines are connected to respective components or what diameter individual lines have. The precise routing of the cables on the platform is also not essential. In addition, there are a variety of valves, control devices for controlling a flow rate, a temperature, a pressure and other parameters, which are not important here for the present invention. Conventional valves, drives and / or control devices can be used.

Die Plattform zur Ölforderung gemäß vorliegender Erfindung weist einen Grundkörper 1 auf, der schematisch als Rechteck dargestellt ist. In der Praxis wird der Grundkörper in Draufsicht kein ideales Rechteck darstellen, sondern eine mehreckige Kontur haben. Die ideale Darstellung als Rechteck dient nur zur besseren Erklärung der vorliegenden Erfindung.The platform for oil production according to the present invention has a base body 1, which is shown schematically as a rectangle. In practice, the base body will not represent an ideal rectangle in plan view, but will have a polygonal contour. The ideal representation as a rectangle only serves to better explain the present invention.

An dem Grundkörper 1 ist eine Erdölraffinerie 3 angeschlossen. Der Anschluss der Erdölraffinerie 3 an dem Grundkörper 1 erfolgt durch eine mechanische Verbindung, die dem Fachmann bekannt ist. So sind tragende Bauteile (nicht dargestellt) der Erdölraffinerie 3 an den Grundkörper 1 z.B. angeschweißt. Alternativ kann die Erdölraffinerie 3 auch mit tragenden Bauteilen (nicht dargestellt) über eine lösbare Verbindung, zum Beispiel durch eine Verschraubung, mit dem Grundkörper 1 verbunden sein. Auch eine solche lösbare Verbindung mittels Verschraubung tragender Bauteile ist dem Fachmann allgemein bekannt.An oil refinery 3 is connected to the base body 1. The oil refinery 3 is connected to the base body 1 by a mechanical connection which is known to the person skilled in the art. So supporting components (not shown) of the oil refinery 3 are attached to the base body 1 e.g. welded. Alternatively, the petroleum refinery 3 can also be connected to the base body 1 with load-bearing components (not shown) via a detachable connection, for example by means of a screw connection. Such a releasable connection by means of screw-supporting components is also generally known to the person skilled in the art.

Die Erdölraffinerie 3 ist in Bezug zum Grundkörper 1 konzentrisch angeordnet. Den äußersten Teil der Erdölraffinerie 3 bildet ein Ringbehälter 5, der in Draufsicht ringartig um den Grundkörper 1 herum angeordnet ist.The petroleum refinery 3 is arranged concentrically with respect to the base body 1. The outermost part of the oil refinery 3 is formed by an annular container 5, which is arranged in a ring view around the base body 1 in plan view.

Der Grundkörper 1 bildet eine Arbeitsebene 7, auf der in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform acht Mischturbinen 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8 angeordnet sind. Der Ringbehälter 5 steht in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform in der Richtung des Betrachters über die Arbeitsebene 7 nach oben vor und bildet eine Ringbarriere um die Arbeitsebene 7 herum. In anderen Ausführungsformen können auch weniger oder mehr als acht Mischturbinen 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8 auf der Arbeitsebene 7 angeordnet sein. Auf der Arbeitsebene 7 ist auch eine Ölfördereinrichtung 10 angeordnet, die über ein Zuführrohr 10.1 mit dem Ringbehälter 5 in Verbindung steht, um gefördertes Erdöl in den Ringbehälter 5 einzuleiten.The base body 1 forms a working plane 7, on which eight mixing turbines 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8 are arranged in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the ring container 5 projects upwards in the direction of the viewer above the working plane 7 and forms an annular barrier around the working plane 7. In other embodiments, fewer or more than eight mixing turbines 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 9.7, 9.8 can also be arranged on the working plane 7. An oil delivery device 10 is also arranged on the working level 7 and is connected to the ring container 5 via a feed pipe 10.1 in order to introduce extracted oil into the ring container 5.

In der vorliegenden Ausführungsform ist im Zentrum der Arbeitsebene 7 eine Destillationskolonne 11 angeordnet, die sich in Richtung des Betrachters nach oben erstreckt. In anderen Ausführungsformen können auch mehrere Destillationskolonnen 11 geometrisch auf der Arbeitsebene 7 versetzt angeordnet sein, so dass eine günstige Gewichtsverteilung erhalten bleibt.In the present embodiment, a distillation column 11 is arranged in the center of the working level 7 and extends upwards in the direction of the viewer. In other embodiments, a plurality of distillation columns 11 can also be arranged geometrically offset on the working plane 7, so that a favorable weight distribution is maintained.

In anderen Ausführungsformen kann auch eine andere Anzahl von Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 zweckmäßig sein. In den Ausführungsformen, in denen eine größere Mehrzahl von Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 vorgesehen ist, wie zum Beispiel in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform, sind diese konzentrisch auf der Arbeitsebene 7 angeordnet. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform, wie in der Figur dargestellt, sind die acht Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 tangential zu einer Innenseite des Ringbehälters 5 angeordnet. In der Regel sind die Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 zylinderförmig ausgebildet. Es sind aber auch Ausführungsformen denkbar, in denen die Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 an den Kreisbogen angepasst sind, auf dem diese konzentrisch angeordnet sind.In other embodiments, a different number of mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 can also be expedient. In the embodiments in which a larger number of mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 are provided, as for example in the present embodiment, these are arranged concentrically on the working plane 7. In a preferred embodiment, as shown in the figure, the eight mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 are arranged tangentially to an inside of the ring container 5. As a rule, the mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 are cylindrical. However, embodiments are also conceivable in which the mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 are adapted to the circular arc on which they are arranged concentrically.

Der Ringbehälter 5 ist über eine erste Fluid-Abführleitung 12.1 mit der Mischturbine 9.1 verbunden. Ebenso ist der Ringbehälter 5 mit allen weiteren Mischturbinen 9.2 bis 9.8 über jeweils eine Fluid-Abführleitung 12.2 bis 12.8 verbunden. Die Mischturbine 9.1 ist über eine Fluid-Zuführleitung 13.1 mit dem Ringbehälter 5 verbunden. Ebenso sind die Mischturbinen 9.2 bis 9.8 jeweils mit einer Fluid-Zuführleitung 13.2 bis 13.8 mit dem Ringbehälter 5 verbunden.The ring container 5 is connected to the mixing turbine 9.1 via a first fluid discharge line 12.1. Likewise, the ring container 5 is connected to all other mixing turbines 9.2 to 9.8 via a fluid discharge line 12.2 to 12.8, respectively. The mixing turbine 9.1 is connected to the ring container 5 via a fluid supply line 13.1. Likewise, the mixing turbines 9.2 to 9.8 are each connected to the ring container 5 by a fluid supply line 13.2 to 13.8.

Die Destillationskolonne 11 ist über ein Ausgangsende 15 an einen Tank 17 angeschlossen. Aus diesem Tank 17 kann ein fertiges Produkt, zum Beispiel Dieselöl, entnommen werden.The distillation column 11 is connected to a tank 17 via an outlet end 15. A finished product, for example diesel oil, can be removed from this tank 17.

Der Ringbehälter 5 ist über eine Dampfleitung mit der Destillationskolonne 11 verbunden, so dass Fluidanteile in der Dampfphase in die Destillationskolonne 11 abgeleitet werden.The ring container 5 is connected to the distillation column 11 via a steam line, so that fluid components in the vapor phase are discharged into the distillation column 11.

Die Destillationskolonne 11 an sich ist in der vorliegenden Erfindung auch nicht in Einzelheiten beschrieben, da diese bereits aus dem Stand der Technik allgemein bekannt ist. Es können übliche Destillationskolonnen aus den eingangs genannten Verfahren des Standes der Technik verwendet werden. Zu der Destillationskolonne 11 gehört auch ein Kondensator, der nicht dargestellt ist, der aber in der vorliegenden Konstruktion mehrwassergekühlt sein soll.The distillation column 11 itself is also not described in detail in the present invention, since it is already generally known from the prior art. Conventional distillation columns from the prior art processes mentioned at the outset can be used. The distillation column 11 also includes a condenser, which is not shown, but which, in the present construction, is said to be water-cooled.

Die Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 sorgen für eine innige Vermischung des Katalysators mit Luft. Diese innige Vermischung erfolgt im Wesentlichen durch die katalytische CO2-Bildung. Die tangentiale Anordnung der Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 zum Ringbehälter 5 führt dazu, dass das Öl-Katalysator-Gemisch im Ringbehälter 5 zu einer raschen Bewegung in Pfeilrichtung (in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform im Uhrzeigersinn) angeregt wird, so dass neu eintretendes Erdöl mit dem Öl-Katalysator-Gemisch (dem Fluid im Ringraum 5) gut vermischt wird.The mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 ensure an intimate mixing of the catalyst with air. This intimate mixing essentially takes place through the catalytic CO 2 formation. The tangential arrangement of the mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 to the ring container 5 means that the oil-catalyst mixture in the ring container 5 is excited to move rapidly in the direction of the arrow (clockwise in the present embodiment), so that newly entering petroleum with the oil Catalyst mixture (the fluid in the annular space 5) is mixed well.

Verfahrenstechnisch bekommen die Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 durch eine Vordruckänderung so viel Luft injiziert, dass die Reaktionstemperatur immer bei etwa 270°C eingestellt ist, bei der eine vollständige Umwandlung der schweren Komponenten des Erdöls erfolgt. Die leichteren Anteile des Erdöls verdampfen bei dieser Temperatur und die schweren Anteile des Erdöls folgen der Verdampfung nach der katalytischen Reaktion.In terms of process technology, the mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 are injected with so much air by changing the admission pressure that the reaction temperature is always set at about 270 ° C., at which the heavy components of the petroleum are completely converted. The lighter parts of the petroleum evaporate at this temperature and the heavy parts of the petroleum follow the evaporation after the catalytic reaction.

Durch den Vordruck der Luftinjektion wird die Erdölraffinerie auf die wechselnden Mengen an gefördertem Erdöl angepasst. Sinkt die Fördermenge des Erdöls, dann wird der Luftinjektionsdruck in den Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 wieder abgesenkt und damit die Reaktionstemperatur im Normbereich zwischen 250°C und 300°C gehalten. Verfahrenstechnisch wichtig ist, dass die Zufuhr von Kalk und Katalysator in Abhängigkeit von den Produktionsbedingungen geregelt wird. So sollte ein pH-Wert von > 8 eingestellt sein. Auch der Durchsatz sollte bei der Normtemperatur von 270°C durch Katalysatorzugabe auf ein vorgegebenes Niveau eingestellt sein.The form of the air injection adapts the oil refinery to the changing amounts of extracted oil. If the flow rate of the petroleum drops, then the air injection pressure in the mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 is reduced again and the reaction temperature is thus kept in the normal range between 250 ° C. and 300 ° C. It is important from a process engineering point of view that the supply of lime and catalyst is regulated depending on the production conditions. So a pH value of> 8 should be set. The throughput should also be set to a predetermined level at the standard temperature of 270 ° C by adding catalyst.

Die auf der erfindungsgemäßen Plattform angeordneten Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 verbrauchen zusätzlich zu dem Strombedarf der Plattform 1 mit allen Zusatzaggregaten etwa 1 MW. Dieser Strom wird in einem Zusatzgenerator mit dem Einsatzstoff des erzeugten Diesels, also dem aus dem Tank 17 zu entnehmenden Produkt, oder im Falle der Gasverwertung mit Gas erzeugt.The mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 arranged on the platform according to the invention consume about 1 MW in addition to the power requirement of the platform 1 with all additional units. This current is generated in an additional generator with the feedstock of the diesel produced, that is to say the product to be removed from the tank 17, or in the case of gas utilization with gas.

Die Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 bzw. die wenigstens eine Mischturbine 9.1 bis 9.8 saugen aus dem Ringbehälter 5 das Öl-Katalysator-Gemisch an, wandeln diesesThe mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 or the at least one mixing turbine 9.1 to 9.8 suck the oil-catalyst mixture from the ring container 5, convert it

Gemisch in Treibstoff, Wasser und CO2 um und drücken das dampfhaltige Gemisch wieder tangential in den Ringbehälter 5, so dass in dem Ringbehälter 5 eine Strömungsgeschwindigkeit in Pfeilrichtung erzeugt wird, die derjenigen in einem Rührbehälter entspricht. Als Katalysator wird ein aus der Natur bei der Osmose bekanntes Mineral verwendet. Es handelt sich dabei um ein Kation-Aluminium-Silikat mit den Kathoden Kalium, Kalzium und Eisen. Dieses ist auch als Mineral in der Kohle enthalten. Zusätzlich neben dem Katalysator wird Kalk oder Kalkstein zur Bindung der Säuren hinzugegeben, so dass der pH-Wert über 8 liegt. Der Anteil des Katalysators im Öl-Katalysator-Gemisch (Fluid im Ringbehälter 5) beträgt in der vorliegenden Ausführungsform etwa 3 Gew.-%.Mixture into fuel, water and CO 2 and press the steam-containing mixture again tangentially into the ring container 5, so that a flow velocity in the direction of the arrow is generated in the ring container 5, which corresponds to that in a stirred tank. A mineral known from nature in osmosis is used as the catalyst. It is a cation-aluminum silicate with the cathodes potassium, calcium and iron. This is also contained in the coal as a mineral. In addition to the catalyst, lime or limestone is added to bind the acids so that the pH is above 8. The proportion of the catalyst in the oil-catalyst mixture (fluid in the ring container 5) is about 3% by weight in the present embodiment.

Der eingebrachte Kalk wandelt sich durch den Schwefel- und Chlorgehalt des Erdöls in Salz um, welches in Abhängigkeit von einer Viskositätsmessung aus dem System ausgebracht wird. Dies erfolgt durch eine Stromaufnahme einer Umlaufpumpe, die das Bitumenventil öffnet, wenn ein Grenzwert erreicht wird.The lime introduced is converted into salt by the sulfur and chlorine content of the petroleum, which is released depending on a viscosity measurement from the system. This is done by drawing current from a circulation pump that opens the bitumen valve when a limit value is reached.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform hat der Ring des Ringbehälter 5 einen Außendurchmesser von etwa 50m (Innendurchmesser etwa 48m) und eine Höhe von etwa 2m. Die Destillationskolonne 11 hat einen Durchmesser von etwa 1,6m. Der Kondensator hat eine Kühlleistung von etwa 2MW. Es stehen 16 Mischturbinen 9.1 bis 9.8 zur Verfügung. Eine Druckluftinjektion erfolgt mit 0,2 bis 2bar. Elektromotoren der 16 Mischturbinen haben einen Strombedarf von 2MW, der von drei Dieselgeneratoren von je 1MW gedeckt wird.In a preferred embodiment, the ring of the ring container 5 has an outer diameter of approximately 50 m (inner diameter approximately 48 m) and a height of approximately 2 m. The distillation column 11 has a diameter of approximately 1.6 m. The condenser has a cooling capacity of approximately 2MW. 16 mixing turbines 9.1 to 9.8 are available. Compressed air is injected at 0.2 to 2 bar. Electric motors of the 16 mixing turbines have a power requirement of 2MW, which is covered by three diesel generators of 1MW each.

Zur Erzeugung von Mitteldestillat mit einem Durchsatz von etwa 5.000 bis 15.000 1/h Mittel wird in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform das geförderte Erdöl zusammen mit 30kg Katalysator und 30kg Kalkstein (zermahlen) über eine Förderschnecke in den Ringbehälter 5 eingegeben.In order to produce middle distillate with a throughput of approximately 5,000 to 15,000 1 / h medium, in a preferred embodiment the extracted oil is fed into the ring container 5 together with 30 kg catalyst and 30 kg limestone (ground) via a screw conveyor.
