Plasma chemical technology
All over the world, the deepening of the refining of "heavy oil" seems to be an urgent problem. The issue of the extraction and processing of heavy bitumen, as well as the further processing of refinement residues, is particularly acute. In this direction, great prospects are placed on plasma-chemical methods of influencing hydrocarbon raw materials.
Our technology is based on the interaction of hydrocarbon raw materials with plasma in a plasma-chemical reactor in a flow-through mode. The interaction of plasma with hydrocarbon raw materials occurs at the molecular level. In such a method, the main influence on the change in its structure is the energy effect of high concentrations of electrons and plasma ions at low medium temperature on the excitation and dissociation of hydrocarbon molecules and the resulting thermal effect.
The main advantage of converting energy under the conditions of an electric discharge plasma is the high rates of cracking reaction. Intensification of cracking processes occurs under the influence of high temperature and high specific plasma power, which leads to the formation of a high concentration of active radicals, ions and electrons. Under the influence of high-energy electrons and plasma ions, HC molecules that are part of the raw material undergo destruction and are divided into lower molecular weight compounds.
Our company offers technology and equipment for the implementation of plasma chemical methods for the treatment of heavy hydrocarbons, which allow volumetric impact on the raw materials. This significantly improves the efficiency of processing heavy hydrocarbons in relation to existing technologies in industrial use.
As a result of the use of plasma chemical technology, it is possible to significantly increase the content of medium and light hydrocarbon fractions in heavy oil, fuel oil, spent oil and significantly reduce the percentage of sulfur in the above hydrocarbons.
- Plasma chemical cracking of fuel oil is M100 in order to obtain a 3-4-fold increase in the yield of light and medium hydrocarbon fractions during subsequent distillation.
- Plasma chemical cracking of "heavy oil" in order to increase the yield of light and medium hydrocarbon fractions during subsequent distillation.
- Plasma chemical cracking of fuel oil is M100 in order to reduce its viscosity and obtain low-viscosity marine fuel.
- Plasma chemical cracking of "heavy oil," M100 fuel oil, used engine oil in order to significantly reduce the percentage of sulfur.
- Plasma chemical cracking of used engine oil in order to increase the yield of light and medium hydrocarbon fractions during subsequent distillation.
- Conversion of associated gas to liquid hydrocarbons.
