Description:

Hydrocracking is quickly becoming the dominant conversion process in petroleum refining by virtue of its ability to produce high quality, ultra low sulfur middle distillate fuels. The demand for diesel fuel in particular is growing rapidly throughout the world and its growth is expected to continue as a consequence of fuel efficiency and new developments in engine technology. Hydrocracking is well suited to maximizing middle distillate production from heavy vacuum gas oils producing middle distillate volumetric yields of close to 90 percent and total liquid volumetric yields in excess of 110 percent in most cases. It is highly desirable to maximize the conversion of heavy gas oil to distillate products and the preferred mode of operation is to recycle unconverted product in order to push the total conversion to as high a level as possible while maintaining the best possible selectivity to liquid products over light ends.
