Feed to reformer is first desulphurised in Naphtha Hydrotreater so that CCR catalyst(Platinum) does not get deactivated during operation on high sulfur CCR feed.

What is light coker naphtha?

Coker naphtha is an intermediate hydrocarbon product of a delayed coker unit. The boiling point is closest to that of gasoline. In some cases the delayed coker unit will contain a unit operation called a naphtha splitter, in which the coker naphtha is distilled by fractional distillation into light and heavy coker naphtha. The heavy coker naphtha may be discarded back into the light coker gasoil or used as an intermediate elsewhere the in refinery. A naphtha splitter is often required when the cut point of naphtha at the refinery is "low" (approximately less than 135°C). Low naphtha cut points are the result of stringent environmental regulations. Since most of the sulfur is in the heaviest third of the total gasoline, excluding it from the gasoline blending pool may be the easiest way to comply with strict environmental regulations. In this case the higher sulfur heavy coker naphtha may be discarded as a blending component for synthetic crude oil or blending with light cycle oil (LCO).


What is it when a Car stops running and smells like sulfur?

most likely your catalytic converter


What type of reagent is required to convert SO2 to S?

The catalytic reduction of sulfur dioxide with methane can convert SO2 to sulfur.


What is the purpose of sulfur in fuel?

Sulfur in fuel in an impurity. It does not directly produce energy.


What and where is a catalytic converter on a car?

It is part of the exhaust system. It can be anywhere between the exhaust manifold and the muffler. It is usually half way between the manifold and the muffler. Some cars have two. The purpose of the converter is to change the carbon monoxide in the exhaust to sulfur dioxide. Carbon monoxide is a greenhouse gas and sulfur dioxide is not.


What does diesel look like contaminated with sulfur?

It looks like diesel. All diesel has sulfur in it, because all crude oil has sulfur in it. The sulfur lubricates the engine, so they leave it in there on purpose.


Why would exhaust smoke and smell like sulfur?

Probably two problems. The smoke is most likely oil from an engine problem. The sulfur is the catalytic converter bad. The oil plugs the converter making it run hotter and putting out more sulfur dioxide.


Why does a 2001 Honda crv shake when idling and smell like sulfur?

Bad catalytic convertor. Egg smell is a dead giveaway.


You smell something that smells like sulfur coming from your vehicle?

The sulfur smell is the catalytic converter. There will always be some smell of sulfur. The converter changes the carbon monoxide in the exhaust to sulfur dioxide. Strong sulfur smell may be an indication the converter needs to be changed. This can also be a symptom of a leaking battery. We had a battery crack, and the sulfur smell was almost overpowering for a couple of days. Even after it was replaced, the smell lingered for a bit.


Why getting black sulfur smelling smoke and bad mpg from 2000 Dodge Durango?

more than likely your catalytic converter is plugged


How do you get rid of sulfur Dioxide?

You cant just get "rid" of it. In cars, a catalytic converter is used to break down the so2 into less harmful substances.


Why do a car smell like a rotten egg when its only on?

sounds like a bad catalytic converter they produce a sulfur like smell when they get plugged up
