5. Brief description of the order; obligations and role of the contractor (applicant)
5.1 Technical specification of the Experimental units of the tender documentation

„Experimental units for UNICRE project“.
5.1.a) Testing units for hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and hydrocracking (HC)
The delivery has to include the following parts:
1a. 2 reactors for HDS catalyst screening
1b. 2 reactors for HDS catalyst testing
1c. 3 reactors for HC catalyst testing
General description
The units/reactors will be used to study HDS and HC catalysts, effects of reaction
conditions, feedstocks etc. on the performance of such catalysts at operating
conditions similar to industrial ones.
The reactors have to be tubular allowing placement of a catalyst fixed bed, isothermal
operation and the use of the following media: hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen,
air and hydrocarbons.
Reactors and Units layout

It is allowed to combine the required reactors into units but it is necessary to keep the
reactors independent with the possibility to operate them in a parallel mode. Each of
the reactors should therefore be equipped with independent feed lines as well as the
product (sampling) lines.
A big advantage of a unit is the possibility to operate reactors of the same type also in
series (it means 2-stage modes for 1a and 1b or 3-stage mode for 1c) as specified in
the following chapter.
Operating conditions
1a. “2 reactors for HDS catalyst screening”
Feedstock:
- Atmospheric gas oils, vacuum gas oils, light cycle oils, gas oil from visbreaking,

Description of an experimental unit
The experimental unit consists of:
- gas line
- liquid feeding line
- reactor
- reactor heating
- separation part
- sample collection system
- gas outlet
- controlling system
Gas line
The gas sources are nitrogen and hydrogen, high pressure (20 MPa), technical grade
supplied to the testing facility. The controlling devices (mass-flow controllers and
pressure regulation) have to be independent; the feeding line could be shared.
The gas lines have to be fitted by a manual stop-valve, filter, and pressure reducing
device, pressure gauge and mass flow controller. The possibility of automatic shut-
down of gas supply is necessary.
The manufacturer’s technical solution must ensure that liquid feed cannot enter the gas
lines.
Requirements - Mass Flow Controller operating range
Hydrogen 0-50 Nl/h or 0-300 Nl/h depending on the unit dimensions
Nitrogen 0-50 Nl/h or 0-300 Nl/h depending on the unit dimensions

and hydrocarbons.
Handling with reactor, catalyst loading and un-loading should be easy, safety
precautions are vital. These solutions are a part of the manufacturer’s technical design.
Reactor should be easily removable from the furnace, e.g. to be loaded outside the
unit.
The temperature inside of each reactor has to be monitored at least in 6 points of

catalyst bed by sensors placed in a thermowell.
Volumes, etc. are specified in the section “Operating conditions”.
Reactor heating
Preferred is electrical heating, at least 3 independent sections with minimal
temperature deviation. It has to allow isothermal profile along the reactor.
The reactor heating design is a part of the manufacturer’s technical design.
Separation part
The separation part should consist of two separators – a high-pressure separator and a
low-pressure separator.
High-pressure separator
The reaction mixture (gas and liquid) from reactor outlet is led to the high pressure
(HP) separator.
The HP separator has to be designed for efficient separation of the gas and liquid
phases while minimizing the amount of liquid fraction carried away in form of mist.
The separator should be equipped with a level control and possibility of
cooling/heating by external apparatus/source.
The gas phase is withdrawn continuously (controlled by pressure regulator) via a
scrubber containing NaOH (H2S absorption), a gas meter with thermocouple and
pressure transmitter (necessary for the mass balance). The important part of the gas
Page 11 (total 40)

line is a sampling valve for automatically sampling of gas by on-line gas
chromatography (GC). The GC will be connected subsequently.
The liquid phase is withdrawn automatically (continuously) to the low-pressure
separator.
Main characteristics of HP Separator:
Material, pressure, capacity – according to reactor volume and unit design
Operating temperature 25-100°C
Low-pressure separator
The liquid products from the high-pressure separator are led to the low-pressure (LP)
separator.
The products are purged by nitrogen or hydrogen to remove H2S and lighter fractions.
The gaseous stream could be led to the gas phase line from high-pressure separator or
by a separate line. In the case of the separate line it has to be equipped with the same
necessary components as the gas line from HP.
The liquid products from the low-pressure separator are withdrawn by a sample
collecting system.
Main characteristics of LP Separator:
Operating temperature 25-100°C (temperatures below 0°C are an advantage)
Sample collecting system
The liquid products are withdrawn continuously by an automatic sampling system to
ensure unattended operation for at least 24 hours.
The automatic sampling system shall allow collecting sample for various time periods.
For the reactors 1a (catalyst screening) it shall be from 2 to 8hours, for the reactors 1b
and 1c it shall be from 2 to 8 hours too. The frequency of sampling and capacity of the
product container should be combined according to the “Typical” operating conditions
stated in the tables above.
All the parameters have to be designed according to reactor volume and unit design.

Such calculated point evaluations of individual reactors offered by an applicant will be

made into an arithmetical mean of the total technical evaluation of reactors for an
applicant.
The offer that gains the highest evaluation of the technical parameters will be given
100 points; other offers will be given number of points proportional to the ratio of
arithmetical means of technical parameters of a specific best offer.
12.3. Criterion C - Service and support criterion
Page 38 (total 40)

Within the ‘service and support' criterion, overall level of service assurance and device
use based on the following criteria will be evaluated (gives both the method of
evaluation and given sub-criterion weight).
Service and support criterion
Criterion Item Significance

based on
submitter
C1 Speed of response to a reported defect 50 %
C2 Charge for the first 4 hours of service work + transport of a
50%
service worker in compliance with remark in point 5.9
Evaluation method C1 – the most convenient is the lowest value. Commitment of

service worker’s arrival within 24 hours from reporting (on workdays) gains 100
points; within 2 workdays - 70 points; within 3 workdays - 50 points; within 5
workdays - 20 points; and more than 5 workdays - 0 points.
Evaluation method C2 – the most convenient is the lowest price of expected service
action in the structure of price for the arrival of a service worker, plus 4 service hours.
The lowest price gets 100 points. Other offers assessed will be given points values
calculated as: 100 times the ratio of the most suitable offer’s price to the price of the
offer assessed.
Total evaluation will be set to that the points for offers C1 and C2 will be multiplied
by the weights based on significance, and the total weighted mean of Service Terms
criteria will be calculated. The offer that gains the most points gets 100 points for the
Service Terms criterion. Other offers assessed will be given point values calculated as:
100 times the ratio of point assessment of given offer to the point assessment of the
best offer.
12.4. Resulting Evaluation
Total point value of the offer will be calculated as: point values gained within
individual assessment criteria multiplied by the weight of respective criterion in
compliance with art. 11. The total of such point values defines the resulting point
value of an offer.
In the resulting order of offers, the most convenient offer gains the highest total
number of points.
13. Submitter’s Rights

By submitting an offer, an applicant does not gain any rights for contract signing or
