Abstract:
Processes for converting existing refinery units and equipment to enable processing of renewable triglyceride feedstock to provide hydrocarbon fuels. Originally, the existing refinery units may have bene configured as hydrotreating, hydrocracking, fixed bed reforming, or isomerization units for a petroleum based feedstock. Hydrogen from a second reaction zone may be provide to the first reaction zone, without or without the use of a compressor.

Claim (Index 20):
A process for converting a petroleum processing unit into a renewable fuel processing unit, the process comprising:\n providing a first reaction zone having an original configuration for treating a petroleum feedstock, wherein the original configuration of the first reaction zone was as a hydrotreating zone, a hydrocracking zone, a reforming zone, or an isomerization zone; reconfiguring the first reaction zone to provide a reconfigured first reaction zone for treating a feedstock comprising substantially all renewable feedstock and providing a treated effluent; providing a guard bed zone for the reconfigured first reaction zone, the guard bed zone configured to remove metals, phosphorus, or both from the renewable feedstock; providing a stripping zone configured to remove one or more of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), ammonia (NH 3 ), water (H 2 O), carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 )from a portion of the treated effluent and provide a liquid treated effluent and a gaseous stream including the carbon dioxide; providing a scrubbing zone configured to remove carbon dioxide from the gaseous stream and provide a scrubbed gaseous stream; and, providing a line to pass the liquid treated effluent to a fuel blending pool.
