 1. Estimate the hydrogen consumption required to completely remove the sulfur

1. Estimate the hydrogen consumption required to completely remove the sulfur from a hydrotreater feedstock and to reduce the nitrogen content of the product to 15 ppm by weight. The 48.5API naphtha feed to the unit contains 0.62% sulfur, 0.15% nitrogen, and 0.09% oxygen by weight. Feed = 0.62% Sulfur 0.15% Nitrogen 0.09% Oxygen Basis: 1 bbl 141.5 API = SG 131.5 = 48.5 SG = 0.786 lb mg = (0.786)(62.43923) 6.1781 bol 18t3 ft3 81 obi)(1bbl) mg = 275.52 161
