Journal ArticleDOI
A lumping and reaction scheme for catalytic cracking
TL;DR: In this article, a predictive kinetic model for fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) was developed, which involves lumped species consisting of paraffins, naphthenes, aromatic rings, and aromatic substituent groups in light and heavy fuel oil fractions.
Patent
FCC Reactor with a downflow reactor riser
Benjamin Gross,Michael P. Ramage +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a downflow riser was proposed to ensure uniform distribution of the catalyst throughout the feed, decrease contact time of the catalytic catalyst with the feed and decrease the amount of coke made in the process.
Patent
Method and system for regenerating fluidizable catalyst particles
Benjamin Gross,Hartley Owen +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hydrocarbon conversion-catalyst regeneration operation is described which relies upon a dense fluid catalyst bed superimposed by a dispersed catalyst phase operation to effect elevated temperature regeneration of the catalyst providing low CO levels less than 0.15 mol percent in the flue gas by mixing regenerated catalyst with spent catalyst to obtain an initial mix temperature of at least 1175° F before contact with oxygen containing regeneration gas.
Patent
Fcc catalyst section control
Benjamin Gross,Wooyoung Lee +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an improved adaptive behavior of the catalyst section with the regenerator operating in the complete CO-burning mode is achieved by including, as elements of control, variable preheat of the air feed and variable recycle of regenerated catalyst to spent catalyst.
Patent
Heat balance in FCC process and apparatus with downflow reactor riser
TL;DR: In this article, a fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process and apparatus, the heat balance between the reactor and the regenerator of the operation is partially uncoupled by transferring at least a portion of thermal energy from the reactor vessel downflow riser to the regenerators vessel.
