(57) Abstract :
Conventional processes, that convert heavy petroleum residues into lighter fractions, suffer from the drawback of coke formation. The
objective of our invention is to optimize the process in such a manner that there is negligible coke formation and the process is carried
out at atmospheric pressure and is continuous in nature, with the help of supercritical water and indigenously developed catalyst. The
heavy oil is heated up to a specified temperature. It is fed to reactor and mixed with supercritical water and indigenously developed
catalytic additive. The heavy oil is broken into lighter fractions by random de-polymerization; these lighter fractions are in gaseous
phase. This gas is passed through condenser. The Lighter fraction oil is obtained as a major product. Output product contains very less
p
ercentage of sulphur and it operates on atmospheric pressure. The major advantage that the process has is that there is negligible coke
formation
