Basic practical mechanisms and features of the visbreaking process
The key mechanisms and features of the visbreaking process of in different technological implementations are discussed. A several key elements of the technology, the different options of turbulization and the methods of reaction products cooling were analyzed. Such problems as increasing oil fuel stability and removing hydrogen sulphide from visbreaking residue, efficiency of using reagents and additives for reduction of coke formation and polymer deposits in the visbreaking process are studied.
