摘要:
The present invention provides a catalytic cracking process. The process includes introducing at least one species of a natural or synthetic residuum containing feedstock and a catalyst into a catalytic cracker reaction zone, and thereafter cracking the feedstock into a lower molecular weight gaseous product and spent cracking catalyst with hydrocarbonaceous product deposited thereon. Among others, the lower molecular weight gaseous product includes ethylene or propylene. The spent cracking catalyst obtained from the catalytic cracker reaction zone may then be regenerated using a first and a second regeneration zone. The first regeneration zone may be operated in an oxidizing mode resulting in a remaining coke of reduced hydrogen content which lowers the moisture content of flue gas in subsequent regeneration zones. The second regeneration zone, may be operated in a partial oxidizing mode and with a controlled carbon dioxide content in the second combustion atmosphere as a reactant with carbon for forming additional carbon monoxide in the flue gas of the second regeneration zone.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method of producing a synthesis gas from a regeneration of spent cracking catalyst. The method includes introducing a spent cracking catalyst into a first regeneration zone in a presence of a first oxygen and carbon dioxide atmosphere and at a first regeneration temperature. For example, a temperature that does not exceed about 1400° F., and more preferable a temperature that ranges from about 1150° F. to about 1400° F., may be used as the first regeneration temperature. The method further includes introducing the spent cracking catalyst from the first regeneration zone into a second regeneration zone in a presence of a second oxygen and carbon dioxide atmosphere, and producing a synthesis gas from cracking deposits located on the spent cracking catalyst within the second regeneration zone at a second regeneration temperature substantially greater than said first regeneration temperature. In a preferred embodiment, the second regeneration temperature ranges from about 1500° F. to about 1800°, and in a related embodiment is about 1800° F.

The present invention provides a method of producing a synthesis gas from a regeneration of a spent cracking catalyst. The method includes introducing a spent cracking catalyst into a first regeneration zone in a presence of a first atmosphere comprising a first oxygen containing gas at a first regeneration temperature. For example, a temperature that does not exceed about 1400° F., and more preferable, a temperature that ranges from about 1150° F. to about 1400° F., may be used as the first regeneration temperature. The method further includes introducing the spent cracking catalyst from the first regeneration zone into a second regeneration zone. The spent cracking catalyst is introduced into the second regeneration zone in a presence of a second atmosphere comprising a second oxygen containing gas and a carbon dioxide rich stream, and at a second regeneration temperature substantially greater than the first regeneration temperature. For example, the second regeneration zone may be operated at a temperature ranging from about 1500° F. to about 1800° F.
