Increasing global demand for cleaner burning diesel fuel is driving refiners to look for ways to increase low sulfur diesel production capacity. Refiners also continue to look into processing larger amounts of low cost sour and heavy feedstocks to increase profitability. These industry trends make meeting the demand for cleaner burning diesel fuel significantly more challenging. Implementing the IsoTherming® technology enables refiners not only to produce high-quality, low-sulfur fuels compliant with local environmental regulations, but also ensures decreased energy consumption and operating cost when compared with historical trickle bed hydroprocessing technologies.
The IsoTherming® technology has been commercially proven to produce ultra low sulfur diesel (Euro V) since 2016. Currently, the IsoTherming® technology has exclusively produced over 150,000 bpsd/1050 m3/h of ultra low sulfur diesel (Euro V) worldwide. Capital cost advantages, as well as the need for reduced utility requirements, are key drivers in refiners choosing the IsoTherming® technology to meet stringent government regulations on diesel fuel.
Elessent offers innovative and proven hydrotreating solutions to optimize reactor operating conditions and catalyst selection. The IsoTherming® technology can deliver over 30% in capital cost savings and consistently demonstrates a 30-60% utility savings when compared to competing trickle bed technologies.
