Abstract:
The improved crude petroleum oil processing methods for the Crude Distillation Unit are disclosed in this invention. The desalted crude oil and water mixture is  processed through a heating exchangers, cooling exchangers, and vapour-liquid phases separating vessels, fired furnace, superheated vapour steam, the liquid stream  having a wide distillation boiling range and partially vaporised crude oil streams. These streams are processed in an atmospheric distillation column to generate the  distillate products and long residue stream. The long residue generated from the ADC striping section is processed with steam in the separate vessel with plural trays or  the new separation section with plural trays added to the existing ADC design. The methods disclosed in the present invention for CPO processing result in a  simultaneous reduction in thermal energy, reduction in vacuum system load, the opportunity to increase the crude throughput for a given diameter of ADC and to  eliminate a need for a fired furnace for superheating the vapor streamto be used at bottom section of ADC as compared to the closest methods disclosed in prior arts.
