Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for quenching a pyrolysis product, including: supplying a discharge stream from a liquid decomposition furnace to a first quench tower; supplying an upper discharge stream from the first quench tower to a second quench tower; supplying a discharge stream from a first gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower; and supplying a discharge stream from a second gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for quenching a pyrolysis product, the method comprising: supplying a discharge stream from a liquid decomposition furnace to a first quench tower; supplying an upper discharge stream from the first quench tower to a second quench tower; supplying a discharge stream from a first gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower; and supplying a discharge stream from a second gas decomposition furnace to the second quench tower, wherein the discharge stream from the first gas decomposition furnace and the discharge stream from the second gas decomposition furnace join the upper discharge stream from the first quench tower, respectively, and are supplied together to the second quench tower. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a feedstock supplied to the liquid decomposition furnace includes naphtha. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein a feedstock supplied to the first gas decomposition furnace includes one or more selected from the group consisting of recycled C2 hydrocarbon compounds and recycled C3 hydrocarbon compounds. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a feedstock supplied to the second gas decomposition furnace includes hydrocarbon compounds having 2 to 4 carbon atoms. 5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the feedstock supplied to the second gas decomposition furnace is one or more selected from the group consisting of propane and butane. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein an upper discharge stream from the second quench tower is supplied to a compressor. 7. The method of claim 6 , wherein a differential pressure between a pressure of the discharge stream from the liquid decomposition furnace at the outlet of the liquid decomposition furnace and a pressure of the upper discharge stream from the second quench tower at the inlet of the compressor is 0.28 bar or less. 8. The method of claim 6 , wherein a differential pressure between a pressure of the discharge stream from the first gas decomposition furnace at the outlet of the first gas decomposition furnace and a pressure of the upper discharge stream from the second quench tower at the inlet of the compressor is 0.26 bar or less. 9. The method of claim 6 , wherein a differential pressure between a pressure of the discharge stream from the second gas decomposition furnace at the outlet of the second gas decomposition furnace and a pressure of the upper discharge stream from the second quench tower at the inlet of the compressor is 0.26 bar or less.
