ABSTRACT:
Refined waxes and dewaxed lubricating oil basestocks are simultaneously produced in a reversed deoiling-dewaxing process employing conventional dewaxing solvents and existing process equipment. Improved yields, lower solvent useage, and higher throughputs are achieved using dewaxing aids in the final stage. Waxy hydrocarbon oils are solvent dewaxed to a temperature which produces a low oil content refined high melting point hard wax product which is recovered, e.g. by filtration. The hard wax product can be deoiled. The filtrate from the initial dewaxing operation is then injected with dewaxing aid and further chilled in secondary chiller means such as scraped surface chillers to a lower temperature to produce more deeply dewaxed oil and a low melting point soft wax product which are separated e.g. by filtration. The low melting point wax is desolvated and the dewaxing aid may be recovered for example by passing the wax through a membrane or by distillation. Any recovered dewaxing aid may be recycled to the process.
