The application for the patent was published on July 03, 2026, under issue no. 27/2026.

Abstract: Systems and processes herein integrate a crude separation unit, a steam cracker unit, a fluid catalytic cracking unit, an aromatics processing unit, and a dripolene pyrolysis gasoline unit for separating a whole crude oil or other wide boiling hydrocarbon mixtures and for producing olefins and/or aromatics. Systems and processes herein provide various schemes to provide flexibility and valorize aromatics produced via steam cracker unit or fluid catalytic cracking unit by directly extracting and/or converting them into cycloalkanes and feeding them to a steam cracker unit to produce more valuable olefins.
