6 Claims.
My invention relates to a process for dewaxing hydrocarbon oils and more particularly to a process of dewaxing in which pressablewax crystals are produced by chilling wax-bearing-distillates from crude oil.
This application is a continuation in part of my co-pending application entitled Process of xligzvsaxing oil, Serial No. 624,968, filed July 27,
Heretofore, to produce pressable wax distillates from crude oil it required a high degree of fractionation and a very careful selection of the pressing fraction. 'I'his pressing fraction usually had a boiling range of from 450 F. to 675 F. 10 m/m Hg. absolute pressure.
One object of my invention is to provide a methodv of dewaxing hydrocarbon oils in which the fractions which can be dewaxed by pressing are extended to include oils of a boiling range up to '725 F. to '750 F. 10 m/m Hg. absolute pressure.
Another object of my invention is to provide a method of chilling hydrocarbon oils which will greatly improve the formation of pressable wax therein. Y
Another object is to produce a more oil-free wax crystal by improving the conditions under which crystallization is conducted.
Other and further objects of my invention will 30 appear from the following description. f
'Ihe accompanying figure, which is to be read in conjunction with the instant specification and which forms part thereof, shows a diagrammatic view of an apparatus capable of carrying out my invention.
In general, my invention consists of blending, under pressure, a predetermined amount of hydrocarbon such as propane with the wax bearing oil. It is to be understood that throughout this 40 specification by propane is meant any of the low boiling hydrocarbons which may exist in a liquid state in the normal temperature range by the imposition of super-atmospheric pressure.
Commercial propane, for example, is liquid within 45 the normal temperature rangeat pressures between 80 and 120 pounds per square inch and contains at least 60% of pure Cal-Ia. At atmospheric pressure it boils at approximately 45 F.
and solidies at about -300 F. These later 50 characteristics indicate another contributory and complimentary characteristic of this diluent, viz a low viscosity. The viscosity of gasoline or naphtha normally used as a diluent in connection with Adewaxing at temperature of C. is an average of .00690 C, G. S, unit., whereas propane has a viscosity at the same temperature of .00125 C. G. S. unit. This low viscosity indicates high freedom of movement and velocity of the molecular structure and has definitely proven to be very advantageous to crystallization, when it is present as a diluent. The other characteristic of low temperature of boiling makes it possible to remove the propane as the crystallizationprogresses. The removal of this diluent has the effect of accelerating crystallization by concentrating the amount of oil in the mother solution. In other words, the crystal is formed and cul-V tured during the first part of the cooling bythe dilution and low viscosity effect of the propane. Then the increased concentration of the oil and incidental refrigeration eiect produced by allowing the propane to evaporate produces the final Wax crystal. These above complementary and contributory physical eiects are accomplished by the following chilling procedure. The blend is made at approximately 80 to 100? F. The chilling is divided into two stages, viz, 1st, in- `direct heat exchange to approximately 30 F., and
2nd, by evaporation of the propane and the incidental reduction of temperature to as/low as -30 F. In the first stage the blended mixture is passed under pressure through precoolers in order to chill the same by indirect heat exchange.
The precooled mixture is then passed into theV evaporator-crystallizer for concentration by the removal and evaporation of the propane and incidental refrigeration or cooling. This is accomplished by reducing the pressure on the evaporator and results in the evaporation and removal of substantially all the propane. The effect of the propane upon the wax during the pre-cooling is as a diluent to reduce the viscosity ofthe solution and accelerate the crystallization. The final chilling, incidental to evaporating the propane, is such that a desirable wax crystal is developed due to increased concentration of the oil in the solution, producing a wax of improved filtering quality. (See co-pending patent application 632,- 278, Sept. 9, 1932.) This effect enables me, by the practice of my process, to extend the range of pressable wax bearing oils, or to increase the rate of filtration, and reduce the oil content ofY the wax. The propane from the evaporator isV recovered for re-use. The chilled oil containing the wax crystals and substantially freeoi:` propane is then passed to a CO2 stripper tower 50 where CO2 vapors are expanded into tower lilly counterflow to the chilled wax ydistillate before4 it is passed to lter press. In the tower 50, by the vstripping step, the final traces of propane are removed and replaced with CO2 vapors. The oil which Vis recovered from the pressing operation, at a very low temperature, is passed in heat exchange with the incoming mixture as the cooling medium although it is understood that any other suitable refrigerant may be employed for the indirect heat exchange step. The oil is then passed to a pressure evaporator to insure the complete-removalof"propane andl CO2 therefrom, nally stripped by steam to remove 'the last trace of any of the volatile products, and then passed to storage and further processing.
If desired, the processbouldbe modifiedby combining the steps performed in the stripping tower .and evaporator by passing C052 vapors directly into the oil transfer line yfro eX- changer to the evaporator, indirect into the evaporator, thereby eliminating 'the stripping v the blending tank *4, inlfwhich a'thor'ou'gh mixture ofthe bill-tobe dewaxed with'the" propane, is
