Conclusions
-
1.
It has been shown that by hydrocracking gasoline fractions from Arlansk crude it is possible to obtain from the catalyzate fraction up to 30–35 wt.% of a light isocomponent, which boils up to 85°C and has an octane number of 84 by the motor method.
-
2.
Compared with platinum and palladium catalysts a nickel catalyst is more effective, because it enables an isocomponent with an appreciably higher content of isoparaffinic hydrocarbons to be obtained.
-
3.
To achieve the most favorable results heavy gasoline fractions (140–180 or 140–200°C) should be subjected to hydrocracking, using a moderate conversion (40–50%) and relatively low temperatures (300–350°C).
-
4.
In contrast to the initial feedstock, the residual part of the hydrocracking catalyzate (the fraction above 85°C) contains more aromatic and naphthenic hydrocarbons and is a better feedstock for catalytic reforming.
