- GTF gas turbine fuel
- FCC fluid catalytic cracking
- HCR hydrocracking
- This embodiment is different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 4 mainly in that the fractional distillation process 1 A is followed by a vacuum fractional distillation process 20 A wherein the residue M2A is separated into vacuum gas oil M11 A and vacuum residue M12 A by vacuum distillation, a solvent deasphalting process 21 A wherein the vacuum residue M12 A is separated into deasphalted oil M13 A and asphaltene (pitch) M14 A by solvent deasphalting, and a hydrodemetalizating/desulfurizing process 22 A wherein a mixture of the deasphalted oil M13 A and the vacuum gas oil M11 A is subjected to hydrodemetalizating/desulfurizing process thereby to produce HDMS refined oil M15 A.
- a vacuum fractional distillation process 20 A wherein the residue M2A is separated into vacuum gas oil M11 A and vacuum residue M12 A by vacuum distillation
- a solvent deasphalting process 21 A wherein the vacuum residue M12 A is separated into deasphalted oil M13
- the residue M2A is introduced into a vacuum distillation tower where the M2A is distilled and separated into a low-boiling point component and a high-boiling point component, while the vacuum gas oil M11 A having the lower boiling point is obtained from the top of the tower and the vacuum residue M12 A having the higher boiling point is obtained from the bottom of the tower.
- the vacuum fractional distillation process 20 A is followed by the solvent deasphalting process 21 A where the vacuum residue M12 A obtained in the former process is separated into deasphalted oil M13 A and asphaltene (pitch) M14 A. While the vacuum fractional distillation process is similar to the cases shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the extraction ratio of the deasphalted oil M13 A obtained in the solvent deasphalting process of the vacuum residue is controlled so that the desirable upper limit of the vanadium (V) content rises to, for example, 70 wt ppm in correspondence to the concentrations of metals, residual carbon, and sulfur in M13 A that are higher than those of the residue M2A.
- V vanadium
- the demetalizing and desulfurizing conditions for the HDMS refined oil M1SA thus obtained are preferably selected so as to achieve the vanadium (V) content of 2 wt ppm or lower, preferably 1 wt ppm or lower, and a sulfur content of 0.5 wt % or lower, preferably 0.3 wt % or lower.
- the remainder of the HDMS refined oil M15 obtained in the hydrodemetalizating/desulfurizing process 22 A that is not fed to the sixth mixing process 23 A may be used as an intermediate oil product to be used as the feed for the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process or the feed for the hydrocracking (HCR) process.
- FCC fluid catalytic cracking
- HCR hydrocracking
- the M13 A and M11 A may be, instead of being mixed, subjected to hydrodemetalizating/desulfurizing process in separate reactors each under optimum conditions, and then mixed with each other, or at least part of the vacuum gas oil M11 A that has been subjected to the hydrodemetalizating/desulfurizing process and at least a part of the distillate M3 A are mixed thereby to obtain gas turbine fuel (GTF) that has vanadium (V) content of 0.5 wt ppm or lower.
- GTF gas turbine fuel
- V vanadium
- the vanadium (V) content of the mixed oil becomes sufficiently low and it is possible to obtain gas turbine fuel as one of the petroleum products. It is also possible to produce intermediate oil products of low metal content (V+Ni) used as the feed for a fluid catalytic cracking or a hydrocracking process even from the remainder of the HDMS refined oil M15 A obtained from a mixture of the vacuum gas oil M7A and the deasphalted oil M13 A by hydrodemetalizating/desulfurizing process. Thus a plurality of intermediate oil products having a high added value can be produced efficiently.
- the yield of deasphalted oil M13 A in the solvent deasphalting process 21 A can be improved by producing the gas turbine fuel (GTF) and feed for the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process or feed for the hydrocracking (HCR) process at the same time, thereby suppressing the production of asphaltene (pitch) M14 A from the vacuum residue M12 A.
