REMOVAL OF SULPHUR FOR FCCU CRACKED GASOLINE WITHOUT AFFECTING OCTANE NUMBER

This project deals with removal of Sulfur from FCCU cracked gasoline without
affecting the octane number of the gasoline. As per the BS VI standard Sulfur
in the gasoline should maintain less the 10ppm. While removing Sulfur from
gasoline by using hydrogenation may loss octane number by saturating
olefins in gasoline. Selective hydrogenation reactor introduced in
hydrogenation process. In this report the material and energy balance
calculations are shown in detail involved in this process have been done in
detail by considering the technical aspects of the equipment. Environmental
regulations and enhancing the performance of the fuel. A key aspect of the
project involves performing material and energy balances to ensure that the
process is efficient and sustainable. By analyzing the inputs and outputs of
the system, the balance calculations help optimize the process flow and
resource usage. Additionally, safety considerations were carefully addressed.
An economic analysis was carried out to evaluate the financial feasibility of
the sulfur removal process. The results of this analysis indicated that the
process is economically viable, offering a good return on investment. Overall,
the project demonstrates that sulfur removal from gasoline can be achieved
effectively with minimal octane loss, while maintaining safety and economic
efficiency.
