These streams totally or in part will be routed as follows:
r
LVGO via the Gas Oil Hydrotreater to Gas Oil Blending pool
r
HVGO via the Gas Oil Hydrotreater to FCCU
r
Gas Oil Hydrotreater will be on block flow operation
Examination of the remaining units in this configuration now follows:
The thermal cracker. The following yields and properties have been developed from
empirical correlation. These are presented and discussed in Chapter 12. Such cor-
relation are acceptable for use in configuration development, particularly those that
will be used in study work. For any definitive design work however it is essential that
the data used be obtained from pilot plant runs using samples of the actual residue as
feed (Table 2.18).
The following property curves were developed from pilot plant runs on a similar
feed stock. These are based on total product %volume (Tables 2.19 and 2.20; Figures
2.4–2.6).
The gas to 380
◦
F Stream will be routed as the overhead distillate from the Thermal
Cracker Syn Crude fractionator to the Naphtha hydro treater and the saturated light
end unit.
The gas oil stream will be routed to the straight run Diesel hydro treater.
