The Zeoforming technology is developed and applied in industry in construction of autonomous installations for high-octane (RON 92-96) motor gasoline production of capacity 5 to 350-500 thousand tons per year with respect to the raw material – straight-run gasoline fraction (SRG) for a fixed catalyst bed process. For a process using moving
catalyst bed, the possibility is proved to increase capacity up to one million tons per year with respect to straight-run gasoline fraction.

PREHISTORY (1990-1997)
The industrial technology of Zeoforming and the catalyst production technology are developed by SEC “Zeosit” SB RAS and protected by more than 30 RF patents. SEC “Zeosit” possesses the exclusive right of licensing the use of Zeoforming and develops Basic Engineering for installations of motor fuel production through the Zeoforming process.

The process of Zeoforming is based on the reactions of catalytic conversion of paraffins and naphthenes over zeolite-containing catalysts.
During the Zeoforming process the reactions of C-C bonds splitting, isomerization, hydrogen redistribution, and alkylation of the initial hydrocarbons and of the intermediate compounds result in conversion of low-octane hydrocarbons (naphthenes and unbranched paraffins) into high-octane components (iso-paraffins, arenes). Due to molecular-sieve properties of the catalyst, the branched high-octane paraffins undergo practically no conversion.
The sulphuric compounds of the raw material are also converted into high-octane components during the Zeoforming process, e.g. via demercaptanization, with H2S emission into the gaseous phase.
As a results, Zeoforming increases the octane number of the straight-run gasoline from 45-60 MON to 72-86 MON (76-95 RON) and decreases the content of sulphur to 0.02-0.05% wt.
The yield of the final products depends on type, quality, and fractional composition of the raw material and on the mode of operation of the installation. For the mode of normal gasoline production, the yield of gasoline reaches 80-92% and in case of regular gasoline it is 70-80% of the raw material fed. The second final product is liquefied gas.
Besides straight-run gasoline fractions, olefin-containing gases of cracking and pyrolysis and oxygen-containing organic compounds may also be used as raw material in Zeoforming.
THE CHEMICAL PRINCIPLES OF THE PROCESS

ADVANTAGES
As compared with the conventional processes, Zeoforming has a number of considerable advantages :
The catalysts are developed on the basis of an environmentally safe system containing no expensive noble and heavy metals;
The catalyst is insensitive to sulphur content, so no hydrofining of the raw material of sulphur and nitrogen-containing compounds is required;
The reactions converting the sulphuric compounds of the raw material, including demercaptanization, result in the total sulphur content in the liquid products not exceeding 0.02-0.05% wt.;
Through the process of Zeoforming, a wide range of hydrocarbon raw material can be converted;
Zeoforming doesn’t use hydrogen and the related compressor equipment;
The process proceeds under lower pressures (0.5-1.5 MPa) and temperatures (340-450оC) thus decreasing power consumption by 20-30%;
Due to essentially lower content of aromatic hydrocarbons and, particularly, of benzene meeting the modern international standards, the gasolines produced are more ecologically safe;
The gasolines produced don’t require any blending;
The process is profitable for capacities above 5 000 ton/year with respect to the raw material.
The said advantages result in a considerable decrease of capital and operational costs.

SEC Zeosit SB RAS has two versions of the technology of Zeoforming.
Version I.
Version II.
The main products of the process are high-octane gasoline (HOG, the yield is 65-80%) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG, the yield is 20-30%).
The main products of the process are HOG (the yield is 85-90%) and LPG (the yield is 8-10%).
According to the results of the expertise performed by the American company Purvin & Hertz Inc., in the countries with a high demand for LPG import (e.g. the countries of South America, China, Poland etc.), the first version of Zeoforming has good economical and technological prospects while in the countries with a limited market for LPG, the main product should be HOG and the second version is to be applied.
In both versions, HOG meets the international standards which are coming into force since 2003, namely:
the content of doesn’t exceed
sulfur
benzene
aromatic hydrocarbons
olefins
0.01%;
1%;
40-42%;
5-7%.
After analysis of the group and fractional composition and other properties of the raw material proposed, SEC Zeosit can determine the possible yields of HOG and LPG for each version of the Zeoforming process.
In both cases, desulfurization of the raw material is achieved during the process of Zeoforming without using hydrogen or hydrogen facilities.

In the course of high-octane gasoline production
through Zeoforming technology desulphurization of the raw material
proceeds simultaneously.

INDUSTRIAL IMPLEMENTATION
II Since 1992 the first industrial Zeoforming installation of 5 thousand ton/year capacity with regard to raw material is in
operation at Nizhnevartovsk Gas-Processing Plant.
The raw material of the installation is a stable gas gasoline. The final product of the installation is unblended normal-grade gasoline. If the installation is switched to another raw material – straight-run gasoline, the yield of motor gasoline grows up to 82-85% wt. The lifetime of the catalyst is over 1.5 years.
The installation is designed to produce unblended motor gasoline “Eurosuper-95” from straight-run gasoline of octane number 45-65 MON. The second desired product of the installation is liquefied gas.
In February, 1997 a Zeoforming installation of 40 thousand ton per year capacity was put into operation at Glimar Refinery in Gorlice, Poland. The installation had been designed and constructed by Lurgi Company (Germany) with the use of license and Basic Engineering of SEC “Zeosit” SB RAS.

The desired products of the process are high-octane motor gasoline ready for use without blending and liquefied gas, the total yield of the desired products being not less 92-95% wt.
The high-octane components of the gasolines produced are iso-paraffins (30-50%) and aromatic hydrocarbons (25-45%), the content of benzene not exceeding 1.5% wt. Such composition meets the modern European quality standards. In the process of conversion, the ON of gasoline increases from 45 MON to 82-86 MON, or 92-95 RON.
The obtained liquefied gas contains 40-42% propane, 30-32% n-butane, and 26-28% wt. isobutane, the content of olefins not exceeding 1%. Such composition of the liquefied gas allows its use as a fuel both for domestic purposes and for automobiles.
Due to simultaneously proceeding reactions of conversion of sulphuric compounds in the raw material including demercaptanisation, the process goes steadily without previous desulphurisation and hydrogen application.
The switching reaction-to-regeneration system is completely automatic at all stages and has proved its high reliability by a 5-year trouble-free operation.
The installation meets all the requirements of economical and technological efficiency and reliability. The investments were completely repaid in 1.5 years after starting the installation.

In November 2001 a demonstrational Zeoforming installation of capacity 0.2 ton/day with respect to the raw material using moving catalyst bed technology was put into operation in Daejeon city, South Korea.
The installation was constructed by Samsung Engineering Company, Ltd. (South Korea) with the use of Basic Engineering, technology, and catalyst developed by SEC “Zeosit” SB RAS.
Starting this demonstrational installation opens the opportunity to increase the capacity of the Zeoforming process up to 1 million ton/year.
An industrial Zeoforming installation of capacity 40 thousand ton/year is designed and constructed by IRV Corporation in Bishkek, Kirghizia using license and Basic Engineering of SEC “Zeosit” and is now prepared for being started. Its feedstock is gasoline fraction of oil or of gas condensate.

A number of technologies for motor fuels production from non-petroleum raw materials are developed and tested at the pilot level :
The above technologies open a possibility to solve a number of problems, both ecological (CO2 discharge reduction and wastes utilization) and strategical in the framework of the general GTL (gas to liquid) strategy.
