Abstract: | The use of 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectroscopy to evaluate the performance of a delayed coking process is presented in a series of papers, of which this is the first. A meaningful analysis requires an accurate balance, which in turn requires analysis of the various types of atoms in the feed and in all products, including solid coke, as well as the amounts of each. Product yields were determined in a delayed coking pilot plant. Complete n.m.r. (1H and 13C) characterization of feed and all delayed coking products, using a consistent classification, was combined with pilot plant data to obtain the total distribution of carbon and proton atoms in the delayed coking process. Changes in carbon and hydrogen distributions (products versus feedstock) reveal the nature of the thermal cracking reactions involved; the main change is a substantial increase in the number of aromatic and paraffinic carbons at the expense of naphthenic carbons. |
