Catalytic pyrolysis process
Catalytic pyrolysis process (CPP)
is a high-severity catalytic process
that maximizes production of
ethylene and propylene in varying
proportions from heavy, low-
value feedstocks. The process was
developed and commercialized
by SINOPEC RIPP. TechnipFMC is a
licensor of this process outside of
China. The first commercial CPP unit
achieved startup in 2009.
Refinery off-gas recovery
Using proprietary technology,
TechnipFMC can recover valuable
products from refinery off-gases.
We have revamped existing
refinery off-gas units and designed
grassroot units for increased
capacity and recovery of olefins.
Our advanced contaminant removal
technology applications ensure
product quality for downstream
petrochemical processes, acting
as a bridge between refining and
petrochemicals.

Propylene recovery units
Based on extensive C3 splitter
experience with proven vapor/
liquid equilibrium and demonstrated
contaminant removal knowledge,
TechnipFMC designs propylene
recovery units that produce
on-spec polymer-grade propylene
and reduce energy consumption and
capital investment. Additionally, our
technology team has expertise in
C3 splitter heat pump designs and
conventional C3 splitter designs
using low-level heat sources.
BenzOUT™ technology: Higher
octane, reduced benzene
BenzOUT™ technology is a
reformate alkylation process that
helps our refining clients increase
gasoline octane and meet benzene
regulations without using hydrogen.
Developed by ExxonMobil Research

BenzOUT™ technology is licensed
by Badger Licensing LLC, a joint
venture between affiliates of
TechnipFMC and ExxonMobil.

primary upgrading processes in Canada includes diluent recovery, vacuum distillation,
and delayed coking technologies. We also have designed and built hydrogen production
units to support the oil sands secondary upgraders.
One particular aspect of these technologies is the very large capacity of process units
such as the delayed coker with a capacity in excess of 150,000 bpsd, or the steam
reformers producing 200,000 Nm³/h of hydrogen.

Hydrogen and CO2 management
In 2009, TechnipFMC launched
HyN•DT, the Hydrogen Network
Design Tool — an optimization tool
for hydrogen and CO2 management
in refineries. It allows us to
integrate, in a single model, all the
hydrogen and CO2 producers and
users within the refinery, evaluate
production and recovery options,
and find the most economically
attractive solution. This service, at
the crossroads of the refining and
hydrogen worlds, uses the specific
competences of each to maximize
the efficiency of every asset.
Burgess
Sulfur recovery units
TechnipFMC applies various
technologies in designing sulfur
recovery units, achieving recovery
rates of up to 99.9%. Tail gas clean-
up units, process gas absorbers, and
amine treatment units are designed
with in-house technology and know-
how, applying various types of
amine solutions.
Water treatment
Our experience in conceptual
studies for water reuse employs
recent technologies such as
membrane bio reactors, ultra-
filtration, downstream standard bio
treatment, and reverse osmosis.
Overall water management, taking
into account cooling water supply
and water recycling, allows us to
meet the most stringent final reject
conditions within TechnipFMC
standards for design of wastewater
treatment facilities.
Zero flaring
TechnipFMC has the experience
and capabilities to design new
flare systems and check existing
networks. These include dynamic
simulation and automatic systems
to reduce flare loads. Zero-
flaring concepts have been used
successfully in our most recent
refining projects.
