Optimization of Physical Properties of Jet Fuel From Wax Oil Hydrocracking Unit
The situation that the qualification rate of jet fuel products during the production process of a 2.2 Mt·a-1 wax oil hydrocracking unit in a certain petrochemical company was lower than the company's indicators was introduced,and turbidity of jet fuel products frequently occurred in the device.After the jet fuel became turbid,secondary processing was required,which increased production energy consumption and seriously affected the company's economic benefits.In response to the above issues,a QC team was established to trace and analyze the root causes of the problems from multiple perspectives,the root causes that affected the appearance of jet fuel products were identified,and effective solutions were proposed.After implementation,good results were achieved,with the quality qualification rate of jet fuel products increasing from 89.82%to 100%compared to the previous cycle,avoiding economic losses of 5.027 million Yuan,and achieving huge economic and social benefits.
