據(jù)烴加工網(wǎng)站2月9日報道 霍尼韋爾宣布，它已經(jīng)推出了一種新的解決方案，利用霍尼韋爾UOP生態(tài)精煉技術(shù)生產(chǎn)用于石化生產(chǎn)的可再生石腦油。這條新途徑可以從廢棄食用油和動物脂肪等可持續(xù)原料中高產(chǎn)出石腦油。

石腦油是一種寶貴的石化原料，用于生產(chǎn)塑料，尤其是烯烴，它是用于生產(chǎn)聚酯和其他包裝材料的其他化學(xué)品和芳烴的組成部分。石腦油傳統(tǒng)上來自原油和天然氣冷凝液，但現(xiàn)在可以從可再生原料中生產(chǎn)。與石油原料相比，來自使用過的食用油等可持續(xù)原料的可再生石腦油的溫室氣體排放量降低了50%-80%，具體取決于原料。

在引入可再生石腦油解決方案之前，UOP生態(tài)精煉技術(shù)已被用于生產(chǎn)主要是綠色柴油和綠色噴氣燃料，少量生物石腦油作為次級產(chǎn)品生產(chǎn)。同樣的生態(tài)精煉技術(shù)可用于生產(chǎn)高產(chǎn)量的可再生石腦油，作為其主要產(chǎn)品，反映了生態(tài)精煉設(shè)計的多功能性，以及根據(jù)市場需求生產(chǎn)一系列產(chǎn)品的能力。

霍尼韋爾可持續(xù)技術(shù)解決方案公司副總裁兼總經(jīng)理本·歐文斯表示：“我們積極與客戶接觸，推動新技術(shù)的采用，因為隨著消費者更喜歡生物基產(chǎn)品，可再生石油化工原料的興趣越來越大。我們認(rèn)為，UOP生態(tài)精煉工藝生產(chǎn)的可再生石腦油是當(dāng)今行之有效的解決方案，與使用石油基原料相比，它可以幫助石化生產(chǎn)商減少產(chǎn)品的碳足跡。”

Honeywell introduces new technology to produce key feedstock for plastics

Honeywell announced that it has introduced a new solution for producing renewable naphtha for petrochemical production using their Honeywell UOP Ecofining technology. The new pathway can produce high yield of naphtha from sustainable feedstocks like used cooking oil and animal fats.

Naphtha is a valuable petrochemical feedstock used in the production of plastics, specifically olefins that are building blocks for other chemicals and aromatics that are used to produce polyester and other packaging materials. Naphtha is traditionally derived from crude oil and natural gas condensates but can now be produced from renewable feedstocks. Renewable naphtha from sustainable feeds such as used cooking oil has a 50%-80% lower GHG footprint compared to petroleum feeds, depending on the feedstock.

Prior to the introduction of renewable naphtha solution, the UOP Ecofining technology has been used to produce predominantly green diesel and green jet fuel, with small amounts of bio-naphtha being produced as a secondary product. The same Ecofining technology can be adapted to produce high yields of renewable naphtha as its predominant product, reflecting the versatility of the Ecofining design and ability to produce a range of products based on market needs.

“We are actively engaged with customers to drive new technology adoption, as renewable petrochemical feedstocks have grown in interest as consumers prefer more bio-based products,” said Ben Owens, Vice President and General Manager, Honeywell Sustainable Technology Solutions. “We see renewable naphtha produced from the UOP Ecofining process as a proven solution available today to help petrochemical producers reduce the carbon footprint of their products compared to using petroleum-based feeds.”
