    Cat Dewaxing Process - Final

    Uploaded by

    Tường Duy
    This document summarizes three main catalytic dewaxing processes: the British Petroleum (BP) process, the Mobil Lube Dewaxing Process (MLDP), and the Chevron Iso-dewaxing process. It compares their operating conditions, catalysts used, and performance in removing wax from petroleum feedstocks. The BP and Chevron processes use mordenite and ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts, while MLDP uses ZSM-5. MLDP has higher yields than solvent dewaxing and produces products with better low-temperature properties.
