Title: Influence of coker-derived liquids on coking performance of Venezuelan heavy oil residue
Abstract: Coking technological improvements are required to effectively upgrade/refine extra-heavy oil residues. The influence of types and blending ratios of coker-derived liquids on the coking performance of Venezuelan residue was studied in terms of product distribution and coke morphology. Blending of the coker diesel distillates (200–350 °C) with the residues was not suggested, given the negative interactions at all blending ratios (0–0.6) as concluded from coke yield analysis. Blending of the coker gas oil improved the coke quality and inhibited the coke formation. The recycle of heavy coker gas oil (430 °C+) at a blending ratio of 0.3 was most favorable.
