"Our invention has also utilized the technique of avoiding the} addition :Of heatjto thecoking operation except inthe introduction of the? preheated oilcharge and thecokepa'rtifcles so that maximum temperature is at the'topof the'reactionzone-and so that there Will -be no tendency of 'the vapors' to condense asthey move upwardly andflareremoved. There is also no dilutionirom products of a combustion as -air is excluded from fliInxour Vprior applications it was "contemplated that the reheating would :be accomplishedtby introducing air into a sealed'reheating zone with a partial combustion of'some of the coke andthe substantially complete vfreeing-of the volatiles contained therein. While it was found that such operation resulted in a highly dense and superior form.of coke, it has. now u beenfound that .more efi'ective andamore economical control can-be accomplished when onlythe removed netproduct is so'calcined. T V p v .The present invention hasfor its principal "object,tthe productionof high quality calcined coke'of dense nature containing substantially no asha'nd' having a low' volatile" content.
A further object of the invention is to'provide an improved method of calcining coke in a con- 'tinuous contact coking unit whereby substantial heat economiesare obtained by the handling of "dry coke-at elevated'temperatures.

'Uni'form' flow assureyeven- :ness' of charge distribution and uni'formresidence time, it being known that the viscosity of the charge at the elevated temperature is about one tenth that of water. As the coating or particle growth thus is of the order of only 0.001 inch per pass, it will be apparent that repeated passage through the reactor is contemplated. This is accomplished by discharging the coatedparticles through outlet control valve 23 into elevator inlet 24, and. with any coke make-up from line 24a, into a suitable elevator 25 which carries the particles to the elevator outlet 26.
In accordance with our invention, we prefer to pass all of the contact particles into a classifier generally indicated at 28 which may be of' any suitable type and which will discharge a uniform quantity of coke of desired size through line 34 for return to the system. Fines may be removed at 30 and the larger size particles removed as net product through line 32. If found desirable, some of this net product from line 32 may be passed through a crusher 33 and returned to the coke make-up line 24a for recycling. t
Although the reaction is both exothermicand endothermic and nearly balanced in reactor in 'where the conversion is to dry coke, there is some heat loss by radiation and otherwise, and the particles which are to be returnedto the reactor 4 the reheater 35 to the stack 43. It is of course understood that appropriate waste heat recovery means may also be used to aid in the cooling of the products of combustion.
In accordance with our present disclosure, we have efiectively segregated the reheating and reaction zones and provided for the passage of the contact particle material through the elevator 25 While said material is in its coolest condition. The reduction in temperature at this point decreases the elevator operation cost. Furthermore only the net coke removed through the line 60 is calcined, with some economy in H] are conveniently passed through the reheater 35. This is a separate sealed chamber connected with the classifier 28 through the inlet line 34. The upper partof the reheater 35 is provided with a series of radiant heat burners, generally indicated at 38, which are supplied by manifolds 40 with fuel gas from line 4| and air from line '42; The continuously changing surface layer formed by the cokeparticles as they enter the reheater 35 is thus continuously brought up to .the desired temperature. Products of combustion flowdownwardly and are discharged to. stack line 43 from vapor collecting channel 44. The reheated coke particles then pass through seal pipe 45, having steam purge line 46, to the inlet 12 to the reactor ID, as previously mentioned. We have found that the continuous, and repeated-passage of coke particles through the reheater and the reactor tends to create a highly dense, non-porous coke which appears to, be radically different from the ordinary porous coal coke or petroleum coke known to the industry. Tofurther improve the qualities of the coke productwe find it desirable to pass it.,;through the calciner 48 and subject it to controlled. calcining with air introduced at 49.-- This novel product, which possesses great utility as a heat exchange medium and for metallurgical purposes, is described more fully and claimed in our copending application, Serial No. 46,168 filed August 25, .1948.
,Thehcoke normally leaving the classifier 28 through the outlet 32 is already in ahighly heated condition, the temperature of which may range from 900. to 1,000 E, is substantially all of a size, and is, of course, completely free of any liquid. In the calciner 48 it is possible to rapidly bring the coke particles up to.-a temperature of, 2,000 F. and the products of the combustion may be carried through the line 50 to the, upper partof the reheater 35. r r
In view of the fact that the products of combustion leave the calciner 48 at approximately 2,000 F. they can be effectively used for reheat- .ing of the bed particles before they enter the reactor H]. In addition, the combustion gases .are substantially cooled in their passage through operation, thereby avoiding the need of high temperature operations in connection with all of the coke.
A typical unit for converting 18 A. P. 1. Mid Continent reduced crude at the rate of 4500 bbl. per day, and producing major yields of dry coke will circulate from 200 to 300 tons per hour of contact material and the reactor may be approximately 16' in diameter with a 28' bed andthe reheater may be approximately 16' in diameter and have a 14' column, With equilibrium coke the solids feed is from 9 to 15 times the oil feed by weight.
v Inasmuch as calcining is largely for the purpose of removing volatile material, and only high temperatures are required, this may be accomplished either by combustion or by radiation from a suitable heatfsource It is to be understood that either type may be used as conditions require. It isof course also possibleto remove partially calcined coke directly from the system if the extra treatment is not required,v
While we have shown and described a preferred form of embodiment of our ,invention we are aware that modifications maybe rnadethe'reto andwe therefore desire a broad interpretation of our invention within the scope and spirit ofv the carbons in liquid phase, converting the spreadcharge into solid dry coke adhering to the coke particles of said bed and vaporous lighter hydrocarbons, removingfsaid vaporous hydrocarbons from said reaction space, recycling a'substantially uniform quantity of said coke particles having solid dry adhered coke to a reheating space sealed off from said reaction space, continuously removing a net coke product corresponding in amount to the cokeproduced in the reaction space, calcining said net product coke in the presence of an oxygen containing gas, introducing ,theprodnets of combustionfrom the calcining step into the reheating space to reheat th recycled. coke particles therein, exposing the. coke particles as they are'fed into thereheating space to the heating effect of radiant heat burners, collecting and removing the products of combustion from the reheating space, and passing the reheated coke flow of products of combustion from the reheating space to the reaction space.
