Process for Converting Olefins to Jet Fuel - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18401398 titled 'Process for Converting Olefins to Jet Fuel

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a process for converting olefins into distillate fuels by dimerizing and oligomerizing them, then subjecting the oligomerized product to hydrocracking and hydroisomerization in a single reactor to produce jet fuel range oligomers.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Dimerizing and oligomerizing olefins to distillate fuels.
  • Hydrocracking and hydroisomerization of oligomerized product in a single reactor.
  • Production of jet fuel range oligomers.
  • Extraction of jet fuel product stream from a side of a stripping column.
  • Ensuring end point boiling specification is achieved.

Potential Applications: This technology can be used in the petroleum industry for the production of jet fuel and other distillate fuels.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for efficient conversion of olefins into jet fuel range oligomers.

Benefits:

  • Increased efficiency in the production of jet fuel.
  • Simplified process with the use of a single reactor.
  • Ability to meet end point boiling specifications.

Commercial Applications: Jet fuel production, distillate fuel production, petroleum refining industry.

Prior Art: Readers can start their search for prior art related to this technology by looking into patents and research papers in the fields of olefin conversion, hydrocracking, and jet fuel production.

Frequently Updated Research: Researchers are constantly exploring new catalysts and process improvements for the conversion of olefins into jet fuel range oligomers.

Questions about Olefin Conversion: 1. How does this technology improve the efficiency of jet fuel production? 2. What are the key differences between dimerization and oligomerization in this process?


Original Abstract Submitted

A process for dimerizing and oligomerizing olefins to distillate fuels which subjects oligomerized product to hydrocracking and hydroisomerization in a single reactor to convert heavier oligomers to jet fuel range oligomers. A jet fuel product stream may be taken from a side of a stripping column which produces a heavy drag stream from a bottom of the stripping column to ensure an end point boiling specification is achieved.
