CA 2330562

The invention is directed to a process of reducing the chlorine content of oil as well as its propensity to foul during subsequent distillation processes. The process heats the oil to a temperature in the range of 400 to 700 °F and contacts the oil with a non-oxidizing gas, such as steam, for a residence time of at least several minutes. Thereafter the oil may be distilled and/or finished to a base lubricating oil or other distillate product. The oil subject to the process may be used oil, and can be subject to a dewatering or removal of light contaminants treatment prior to being subject to the process.

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de réduire le contenu en chlore d'une huile, et sa propension à s'encrasser pendant des procédés de distillation ultérieurs. Le procédé consiste à chauffer l'huile à une température située dans une plage de 400 à 700 DEG F, et à mettre l'huile en contact avec un gaz non oxydant, tel que de la vapeur, pendant un temps de séjour d'au moins plusieurs minutes. Puis l'huile peut être distillée et/ou finie en huile de lubrification de base ou en un autre produit distillé. L'huile soumise au procédé peut être de l'huile usée, et peut être soumise à un traitement de déshydratation ou d'élimination des contaminants avant d'être soumise audit procédé.
