✦ Synopsis
ASPEN process simulation models were developed. Based on a typical PADD II refinery, a linear programming model was developed to assess the values of the oroduced F-T oroducts. The results then were used in a discounted caih flow spreadiheet model to examine the effect of key process variables on the overall F-T economics. Cracking of F-T waxes produced products rich in C-r-reactive olefins which are especially suitable for production of ethers for gasoline blending. The fluid catalytic cracking process produces -34% more gasoline blending components than mild hydrocracking, which is produced at the expense of distillate production.
