The constructed unit was intended to treat an increased amount of BTX fraction (benzene, toluene and xylene) in connection with an increase in the capacity of the ethylene unit, and it increased production of benzene in combination with the existing procedure of benzene production in Pyrotol unit.

The entire construction was based on the process developed by Intecha.

Basic operational data:

  • Benzene purity: min. 99.9% wt.
  • Benzene yield to feed ratio: 98% wt.
  • Capacity: 15-25 t/h of pyrolysis gasoline.
