    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for increasing the yield of products generated during co-processing of biomass oil in a fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) system. The systems and methods can allow for increased yield by reducing or minimizing formation of carbon oxides, gas phase products, and/or coke yields during the co-processing. This can be achieved by adding a hydrogen-rich co-feed to the co-processing environment. Examples of hydrogen-rich co-feeds include high hydrogen content vacuum gas oil co-feed, high hydrogen content distillate co-feed, and/or high hydrogen content naphtha co-feed. Additionally or alternately, various types of fractions that contain a sufficient amount of hydrogen donor compounds can be used to reduce or minimize carbon oxide formation.

    Abstract: A method including: introducing a feed comprising an alcohol and an activator into a reactor comprising a solid acid catalyst; contacting the alcohol and the activator in the presence of the solid acid catalyst under conditions effective to convert at least a portion of the alcohol and the activator to produce a product stream comprising C8-C16 olefins and water; thermally contacting at least a portion of the C8-C16 olefins and/or water with a working fluid to heat the working fluid to form a heated working fluid; and introducing at least a portion of the C8-C16 olefins and water from the product stream into a distillation column and forming a bottoms stream comprising a majority of the C8-C16 olefins from the product stream, wherein a reboiler thermally coupled to the distillation column is at least partially heated by the heated working fluid.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for converting ethanol and cracking hydrocarbons into ethylene and at least cracked products. A method to convert ethanol and cracking hydrocarbons includes: introducing a hydrocarbon feed into a riser of a fluid catalytic cracking reactor such that hydrocarbons in the hydrocarbon feed reacts in the presence of one or more fluid catalytic cracking catalysts to produce at least cracked products; and introducing an ethanol feed into an upper one third of a stripper of the fluid catalytic cracking reactor such that the ethanol reacts in the presence of spent catalyst flowing downwardly from a separator section of the fluid catalytic cracking reactor to produce at least ethylene.
