Definitions

  • This invention generally relates to a process for contacting an alkaline solution with kerosene or diesel.
  • a hydrocarbon feed such as kerosene or diesel
  • a hydrocarbon feed is treated, and accompanying acidic components removed or reduced, in a prewash zone which is upstream of a mercaptan oxidation reactor vessel, a water wash column, a salt filter vessel, and a clay filter vessel for sweetening the hydrocarbon feed.
  • a mercaptan oxidation reactor vessel such as kerosene or diesel
  • a water wash column such as a water wash column
  • salt filter vessel such as sodium bicarbonate
  • a clay filter vessel for sweetening the hydrocarbon feed.
  • Such vessels can be disclosed in, e.g., US 7,223,332.
  • TAN Total Acid Numbers
  • the presence of acid in a hydrocarbon feed can deactivate downstream catalysts, such as, e.g., the downstream catalyst used to sweeten kerosene to jet fuel.
  • downstream catalysts such as, e.g., the downstream catalyst used to sweeten kerosene to jet fuel.
  • Such catalysts often have an activated carbon base that may be susceptible to deactivation by plugging of the carbon pores by an acid salt formed by the reaction of the acid with strong caustic. Although the plugging is reversible, it would clearly be desirable not to have such acid salts present in downstream processes.
  • These acid salts such as sodium naphthenate can lead to increased water and caustic in the product, which can increase salt and clay consumption and potentially lead to product failing to meet specifications.
  • a dilute caustic solution can be used to remove naphthenic acids from a kerosene or diesel feed by adding the caustic solution to the feed, mixing the two phases, and passing the mixture through an electrostatic coalescer or electrostatic coalescer precipitator, which may also be referred to as "ECP".
  • ECP electrostatic coalescer or electrostatic coalescer precipitator
  • the caustic coalesces and separates from the hydrocarbon resulting in a very thick emulsion, sometimes referred to as a "rag layer" by operators, at an interface of the caustic and kerosene in the electrostatic coalescer.
  • the formed rag layer may grow in thickness and shorting of the ECP grids and potentially pass in the effluent from the ECP.
  • Emulsion formation after caustic treatment can be of concern because emulsion formation and accumulation can impede sweetening of the mercaptan in the downstream reactor by deactivating the catalyst in the reactor, increasing consumption of salt for drying and clay treatments, and possibly causing product to not meet specification.
  • the emulsion layer is manually drained and sent to a water treatment plant.
  • water treatment plants have difficulty processing this heavy emulsion layer, resulting in a reduction in the processing capabilities that can ultimately cause complications with the entire refinery operation.
  • a dilute caustic is used to minimize emulsion formation after treatment of the kerosene or diesel feed.
  • a dilute ammonia solution may also be used to remove the naphthenic acids in an electrostatic coalescer. Although ammonia is generally a weaker base, emulsion concerns can still persist.
