Abstract:

Taking the maximum production of chemicals unit with a processing capacity of 20 MM TPY of crude oil as an example, the processing route and carbon reduction measures for “crude oil to chemical” are deeply studied. By adopting the “atmospheric and vacuum distillation+hydrocracking+catalytic cracking+steam cracking+propane dehydrogenation” processing route, 20 million tons of crude oil can produce 7.682 7 million tons of aromatic products, 6.6961 million tons of low-carbon olefins(ethylene, propylene and butadiene), and the total chemical production reaches 76% of crude oil processing capacity, maximizing the production of chemicals. The after-tax FIRR(financial internal rate of return) is 14.19%, which is higher than the industry benchmark value and has good economic benefits. Through the adoption of carbon reduction measures such as green electricity, green hydrogen, nuclear energy heating and power generation, and heat pump technology, the carbon emissions can finally be reduced to less than 7 MM TPY, and it meet the requirements of national carbon peak, carbon neutralization strategy and low-carbon development.
