Chevron Lummus Global LLC (CLG) has announced that Shandong Yulong Petrochemical Co. Ltd. has selected EST, which CLG licenses, for a slurry residue hydrocracking unit in Shandong Province, China.
The unit will produce naptha, diesel and vacuum gas oil once it is complete, and with a capacity of 3 million tpy, it will be one of the largest in the world.
By selecting the EST technology and technical solutions, Yulong will be able to achieve the highest conversion from residue to distillate products, and supply a maximum amount of feedstock to its petrochemical production units. Yulong will also be able to convert a large amount of high sulfur residue to useful transportation fuels and petrochemical feedstock while removing sulfur and other contaminants.
The project scope includes the technology license, engineering, proprietary reactor internals and catalyst supply.
