Abstract

Provided is a method for preparing synthesis gas, and more particularly, a method for preparing synthesis gas including: mixing a pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO) stream including a PFO and a pyrolysis gas oil (PGO) stream including a PGO discharged from a naphtha cracking center (NCC) process to produce a mixed oil stream (S 10 ); and supplying the mixed oil stream to a combustion chamber for a gasification process to obtain synthesis gas (S 20 ), wherein a ratio of a flow rate of the PGO stream in the mixed oil stream to a flow rate of the mixed oil stream is 0.01 to 0.3.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1 . A method for preparing synthesis gas, the method comprising:
mixing a pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO) stream including a PFO and a pyrolysis gas oil (PGO) stream including a PGO discharged from a naphtha cracking center (NCC) process to produce a mixed oil stream (S 10 ); and supplying the mixed oil stream to a combustion chamber for a gasification process to obtain synthesis gas (S 20 ), wherein a ratio of a flow rate of the PGO stream in the mixed oil stream to a flow rate of the mixed oil stream is 0.01 to 0.3.

2 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the flow rate of the PGO stream in the mixed oil stream to the flow rate of the mixed oil stream is 0.05 to 0.2.

3 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 ,
wherein the mixed oil stream has a kinematic viscosity at the time of supply to the combustion chamber of 300 cSt or less, and wherein the mixed oil has a flash point higher than a temperature at the time of supply to the combustion chamber by 25° C. or more.

4 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 3 ,
wherein the mixed oil stream has the kinematic viscosity at the time of supply to the combustion chamber of 1 cSt to 300 cSt, and wherein the mixed oil has the flash point higher than the temperature at the time of supply to the combustion chamber by 25° C. to 150° C.

5 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 , wherein the mixed oil stream passes through a heat exchanger before being supplied to the combustion chamber.

6 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 , wherein the temperature of the mixed oil stream at the time of supply to the combustion chamber is 20° C. to 90° C.

7 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 ,
wherein the PGO stream includes 70 wt % or more of hydrocarbons having 10 to 12 carbon atoms, and wherein the PFO stream includes 70 wt % or more of hydrocarbons having 13 or more carbon atoms.

8 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 ,
wherein the PGO stream has a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 1 to 200 cSt, and wherein the PFO stream has a kinematic viscosity at 40° C. of 400 to 100,000 cSt.

9 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 ,
wherein the PGO stream has a flash point of 10 to 50° C., and wherein the PFO stream has a flash point of 70 to 200° C.

10 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 ,
wherein the PGO stream is a lower discharge stream discharged from a lower portion of a first stripper after supplying a side discharge stream discharged from a side portion of a gasoline fractionator of the naphtha cracking center (NCC) process to the first stripper, and wherein the PFO stream is a lower discharge stream discharged from a lower portion of a second stripper after supplying a lower discharge stream discharged from a lower portion of the gasoline fractionator of the naphtha cracking center (NCC) process to the second stripper.

11 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 10 ,
wherein the lower discharge stream from the gasoline fractionator is discharged from a stage at 90% or more relative to the total number of stages of the gasoline fractionator, and wherein the side discharge stream from the gasoline fractionator is discharged from a stage at 10% to 70% relative to the total number of stages of the gasoline fractionator.

12 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 , further comprising: burning the mixed oil stream supplied to the combustion chamber at a temperature of 700° C. or higher (S 30 ).

13 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 , wherein in the step S 20 , the mixed oil stream is supplied to the combustion chamber together with a gasifying agent.

14 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 13 , wherein the gasifying agent includes one or more selected from the group consisting of oxygen, water, and air.

15 . The method for preparing synthesis gas of claim 1 , wherein the synthesis gas includes carbon monoxide and hydrogen.
