METHOD OF RETOOLING COMMON OIL REFINERY INTO ENTERPRISE FOR PRODUCTION OF FUEL FROM BIOLOGICAL MATERIAL

FIELD: oil and gas industry.SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of retooling a common refinery into an enterprise for production of fuel from biological raw materials, distinguished by process circuit, which enables to process biological raw materials for producing biofuel. Method of retooling an oil refinery, including system comprising two units, U1 and U2 for hydrodesulphurisation, into enterprise for production of fuel from biological raw material, which includes a unit for obtaining hydrocarbon fractions from biological mixtures, containing ethers of fatty acids, by means of their hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) and isomerisation of (ISO), wherein each of units U1 and U2 for hydrodesulphurisation includes: reactor for hydrodesulphurisation, (A1) for unit U1 and (A2) for unit U2, wherein said reactor contains a catalyst for hydrodesulphurisation; one or more heat exchangers for heat exchange between raw material and a stream exiting reactor, E1 in unit U1 and E2 in unit U2; heating system for raw material located above reactor along process, F1 in unit of U1 and F2 in unit U2; acid gas processing unit, located below reactor along process and containing absorbent (B) for HS, T1 in unit U1 and T2 in unit U2, said method includes: installing between units U1 and U2 line L, which connects them in series; installing a product recirculation line for unit U1 and, optionally, for unit U2, replacing catalyst for hydrodesulphurisation in reactor A1 with hydrodeoxygenation catalyst; replacing catalyst for hydrodesulphurisation in reactor A2 with isomerisation catalyst; installing bypass line X of unit T2 for acid gas treatment unit U2; replacing absorbent (B) in unit T1 for acid gas processing with specific absorbent for COand HS. Also disclosed is a plant for production of fuel and a method of producing hydrocarbon fractions.EFFECT: considerable reduction of pollutant emissions into atmosphere, recycling equipment.16 cl, 1 dwg Изобретение относится к способу переоборудования обычного нефтеперерабатывающего предприятия в предприятие по получению топлива из биологического сырья, отличающемуся технологической схемой, которая позволяет обрабатывать исходные материалы биологического происхождения для производства биотоплива.
