Recycle content pyoil is cracked in a cracker furnace to make olefins and the coil outlet temperature of the r-pyoil fed coils can be lowered by adding r-pyoil to the cracker feedstock, or alternatively, the coil outlet temperature of the r-pyoil fed tubes can rise if the mass flow rates of the combined cracker stream containing r-pyoil are kept the same or lowered. Further, increasing the hydrocarbon mass flow rate by addition of r-pyoil can be achieved to also increase the output of ethylene and propylene in the cracker effluent. The cracker furnace can accept ethane and/or propane feedstocks in vapor form along with a liquid and/or vapor feed of r-pyoil.

Optimized cracker conditions to accept pyrolysis oil

A hydrocarbon cracker stream is combined with recycle content pyrolysis oil to form a combined cracker stream and the combined cracker stream is cracked in a cracker furnace to provide an olefin-containing effluent. The r-pyoil can be fed to the cracker feed. Alternatively, the r-pyoil with a predominantly c8+ fraction can be fed to the cracker feed. The furnace can be a gas fed furnace, or split cracker furnace.

Cracking c+ fraction of pyoil

A predominantly Cto Chydrocarbon cracker stream is combined with recycle content pyrolysis oil to form a combined cracker stream and the combined cracker stream is cracked in a cracker furnace to provide an olefin-containing effluent. The r-pyoil can be fed to a first coil while a second cracker feed with none of the r-pyoil or less of the r-pyoil is fed to a second coil, and both are cracked in a cracker furnace to form an olefin-containing effluent stream. Alternatively, the r-pyoil can be fed and distributed across multiple coils along with the non-recycle cracker feed. The furnace can be a gas fed furnace, or split cracker furnace. Further, a first cracker stream with r-pyoil in a first coil can have a lower total molar flow rate than a second cracker stream in a second coil in the same furnace.

Thermal pyoil to a gas fed cracker furnace

A hydrocarbon cracker stream is combined with recycle content pyrolysis oil to form a combined cracker stream and the combined cracker stream is cracked in a cracker furnace to provide an olefin-containing effluent. The r-pyoil can be fed to the cracker feed. More specifically the-pyoil is present in said feedstock in an amount of not more than 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the feedstock.

Disclosed is a process for performing a reductive amination of a first functional group in an organic feed substrate, which feed substrate comprises at least one further functional group containing a halogen atom, in the presence of hydrogen, a nitrogen-containing compound, and a catalyst, wherein the presence of the nitrogen-containing compound, expressed in a molar ratio relative to the first functional group in the organic feed substrate, at least during the reaction as long as the conversion of the organic feed substrate has not yet reached 80%, is maintained below a level of 1.3. Further disclosed is a composition of the invention comprising at least 98.0% wt of 2-chloro-benzyl-dimethylamine, at most 0.60% wt of the meso-o-Cl-BDMA dimer and at least 1 ppm wt of the (+/&#x2212;)-o-Cl-BDMA dimer and any use therefor.

Process for the reductive amination of halogen-containing substrates

The invention is comprised of a coalescent and non-ionic surfactant blend additive for use in water-based architectural coating formulations. The dual-function blend is produced by reacting 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate with ethylene oxide in the presence of a basic catalyst and separating the desired ethoxylated coalescent and non-ionic surfactant blend from the reaction product.

Coalescent and non-ionic surfactant blend

A liquid phase hydrogenolysis of acetal compounds, such as cyclic acetals and cyclic ketals, is disclosed. The acetal compounds are fed to a reaction zone and reacted in the presence of a noble metal catalyst supported on a carbon or silica support to make hydroxy mono-ether compounds in high selectivity, without the necessity of using acidic co-catalysts such as phosphorus containing acids or stabilizers such as hydroquinone.

Production of hydroxy ether hydrocarbons by liquid phase hydrogenolysis of cyclic acetals or cyclic ketals

Cyclic acetals can be produced in a reactive distillation apparatus by combining a polyhydroxyl compound and an aldehyde. High concentrations of cyclic acetals are removed as liquid products from the column while water is removed as an overhead vapor stream.

Production of cyclic acetals by reactive distillation

Disclosed is a process for the preparation of a 2,2,4,4-tetraalkylcyclobutane-1,3-diols by hydrogenation of a 2,2,4,4-tetraalkylcyclobutane-1,3-dione in the presence of a catalyst comprising ruthenium deposited on a carbon nanotube support. The process is useful for the preparation of 2,2,4,4-tetramethylcyclobutane-1,3-diol. The process may be carried out in the presence or absence of a solvent and in the liquid or vapor phase. Also disclosed is a process for modifying the cis:trans ratio of the 2,2,4,4-tetramethylcyclobutane-1,3-diol hydrogenation product by contacting the diol with hydrogen in the presence of a supported ruthenium catalyst.
