Abstract
Se proporcionan un aparato para mejorar el petróleo pesado y un método de mejoramiento, en donde el grado avanzado del craqueo térmico del petróleo pesado puede ser controlado cuando el petróleo pesado es mejorado mediante el uso de agua supercrítica. Un reactor 1 es mantenido a una temperatura y presión igual o mayor que los puntos críticos del agua. En el reactor, un petróleo pesado y el agua supercrítica son puestos en contacto uno con otro, y el petróleo pesado es separado en una primera fase compuesta de una fracción de petróleo pesado residual, obtenido mediante el craqueo térmico y el agua supercrítica disuelta en la fracción de petróleo pesado residual, y una segunda fase compuesta por el agua supercrítica y una fracción de petróleo liviano extraída hacia el agua supercrítica, mientras avanza el craqueo térmico del petróleo pesado. Una unidad de detección de interface 75 detecta la altura de la posición de una interfaz entre la primera y la segunda fase en el reactor. Una unidad de control 7 controla la cantidad desechada del fluido mezclado de la fracción de petróleo pesado residual y el agua supercrítica, sobre la base del volumen de la altura de la posición de la primera fase encontrada, tal que un tiempo de residencia del fluido mezclado de la fracción de petróleo pesado residual y el agua supercrítica disuelta en la fracción de petróleo pesado residual, se convierta en un primer tiempo de residencia, el cual ha sido ajustado por anticipado. (FIG. 2)An apparatus for improving heavy oil and an improvement method are provided, wherein the advanced degree of thermal cracking of heavy oil can be controlled when heavy oil is improved by the use of supercritical water. A reactor 1 is maintained at a temperature and pressure equal to or greater than the critical points of the water. In the reactor, a heavy oil and supercritical water are brought into contact with each other, and the heavy oil is separated in a first phase composed of a fraction of residual heavy oil, obtained by thermal cracking and the supercritical water dissolved in the fraction of residual heavy oil, and a second phase composed of supercritical water and a fraction of light oil extracted into supercritical water, while thermal cracking of heavy oil progresses. An interface detection unit 75 detects the height of the position of an interface between the first and the second phase in the reactor. A control unit 7 controls the discarded amount of the mixed fluid of the residual heavy oil fraction and the supercritical water, based on the volume of the height of the position of the first phase found, such that a residence time of the mixed fluid of the fraction of residual heavy oil and the supercritical water dissolved in the fraction of residual heavy oil, it becomes a first residence time, which has been adjusted in advance. (FIG. 2)
