Abstract
A method for purifying an asphaltene-containing fuel where the asphaltene-containing fuel is supplied to a deasphalting unit in which asphaltene contained in the fuel is separated using a solvent, thereby forming a substantially deasphalted fuel. The solvent is separated from the deasphalted fuel in a solvent recovery unit after a successful separation of the asphaltene from the fuel, and the waste heat of turbine exhaust gas produced in a gas turbine when converting fuel into electricity is used in order to purify the asphaltene-containing fuel. A corresponding device is used for purifying an asphaltene-containing fuel.
