Abstract: Processes for producing mono-methyl alkylbenzenes from natural oils are described. The processes includes a linear selective cracking process to crack C14+ chains into C9 to C14 chains which are useful for making linear alkylbenzene for use in detergents and a hydroisomerization step to produce paraffins with mono-methyl branching which can be reacted with benzene to form the mono-methyl alkyl benzenes.

Abstract: The process produces a diesel stream from a biorenewable feedstock by hydrotreating to remove heteroatoms and saturate olefins. The recycle gas is recycled to the hydrotreating reactor without removing hydrogen sulfide, which is needed in the biorenewable feed to keep the hydrotreating catalyst active. A purification unit can be utilized on a purge gas stream to purify the gas and improve hydrogen concentration in the recycle gas when added to the recycle gas.

Abstract: The process produces a diesel from a biorenewable feedstock by hydrotreating to remove heteroatoms and saturate olefins. The biorenewable feedstock is contacted in a guard bed reactor in the presence of hydrogen to saturate olefins and remove metals to produce a contacted feed stream. The contacted feed stream is then heated in a charge heater to a higher temperature than in the guard bed reactor and hydrotreated in the presence of a hydrotreating hydrogen stream and a hydrotreating catalyst to deoxygenate the contacted feed stream to provide a hydrotreated stream.

Abstract: Processes and apparatuses for hydrotreating a feed stream comprising a biorenewable feedstock. The process comprises hydrotreating the feed stream in the presence of hydrogen and a hydrotreating catalyst to provide a hydrotreated stream and isomerizing an isomerization feed stream in the presence of a hydrotreating catalyst to provide an isomerized stream. The isomerization feed stream includes at least a portion of the hydrotreated stream. Electric heaters are provided for one or both recycle vapor streams.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for producing biofuel from biorenewable feedstock is disclosed. The process comprises hydrotreating the biorenewable feed stream in a hydrotreating reactor to hydrodeoxygenate a biorenewable feed stream to provide a hydrotreated effluent stream. The hydrotreated effluent stream is separated in a hot separator into a hot separated vapor stream and a hot separated liquid stream. A hydroisomerization feed stream is taken from the hot separated liquid stream and hydroisomerized in a hydroisomerization reactor to provide a hydroisomerized stream. All or a portion of a return stream taken from the hot separated vapor stream is recycled to the hydroisomerization reactor. The disclosed process and apparatus minimize the carryover of the normal C16 to the biofuel and maximizes the hydroisomerization of n-paraffin hydrocarbons in the hydrotreated effluent stream to produce a biofuel which meets the biofuel specification without affecting or compromising the biofuel yield.

Abstract: Processes for producing linear alkylbenzenes from natural oils incorporating hydrogen and heat integration are described. The processes include recycling at least a portion of the hydrogen stream to the linear selective cracking unit, and heating exchanging the paraffin stream, or the C9 to C14 stream, or the C14+ stream, or the first stream, or the second stream, or combinations thereof with the dehydrogenated stream, or the alkylation effluent stream, or both; or providing heat from deoxygenating the natural oil to the linear selective cracking unit, or the dehydrogenation unit, or the alkylation unit, or combinations thereof, or both.

The hydrotreated stream is separated into a hydrotreated liquid stream and a hydrotreated gas stream. The hydrotreated liquid stream is subjected to stripping to provide a stripper off-gas stream. At least a portion of the stripper off-gas stream is contacted with a caustic stream to provide a sulfur-lean gas stream and a sulfur-rich caustic stream. The sulfur-rich caustic stream is further treated to provide a treated gas stream.

Abstract: A process isolates a liquid hydrocracked stream from a liquid hydroisomerized stream, so heat in the hydrocracked stream can be preserved. Preserving heat in the hydrocracked stream avoids having to reheat the hydrocracked stream before product fractionation. Particularly, kerosene in the hydrocracked stream is not cooled with the hydroisomerized stream and then reheated in fractionation to distill the kerosene range hydrocarbons from the diesel range hydrocarbons.
