TA000 Advances in Hydroprocessing I
OverviewEnvironmental regulations mandating the production of ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD, < 10 wppm S) and ultra low sulfur gasoline (ULSG, < 30 wppm S and ultimately < 10 wppm S) have challenged the refining industry to develop and implement new catalyst and process technology. Papers covering advances in catalyst and process development in hydroprocessing technology designed to help the refiner meet these challenging specifications are solicited for this symposium. Hydroprocessing applications in distillate hydrotreating, FCC feed pre-treating, desulfurization of FCC gasoline are welcome as well as novel technologies that address the production of clean fuels. Papers describing commercial experience in the application of new hydroprocessing catalysts and processes are also encouraged.
