摘要:
A process for selective catalytic cracking of a petroleum-based feedstock to produce a product having a high yield of liquified petroleum gas (LPG) and light olefins having 3 to 4 carbons includes providing a fluidized bed reactor which is a high velocity riser, continuously circulating fluidized bed reactor; providing a solid acidic catalyst comprised of: from 1 to 6% by wt. of ultra stable Y-zeolite; from 8-25% by wt. of Pentasil zeolite which is shape selective; from 0-8% by wt. of an active material which is bottom selective; from 0-1% by wt. of rare earth constituents; and from 91 to 60% by wt. of nonacidic constituents and binder; charging the fluidized bed reactor with the solid acidic catalyst and the petroleum-based feedstock; and cracking the petroleum-based feedstock in the presence of the solid acidic catalyst in the fluidized bed reactor. The reactor is operated at a Weight Hourly Space Velocity (WHSV) ranging from 40 to 120 hr.sup.-1, a ratio of solid acidic catalyst to petroleum-based feedstock ranging from 15 to 25, a temperature at the top of the high velocity riser ranging from 530.degree. C. to 600.degree. C., recycled riser products ranging from 0 to 40%, a pressure in the fluidized bed reactor ranging from 1.0 to 4.0 kg/cm.sup.2 g, and an amount of steam for dilution and quenching of hydrocarbons ranging from 3 to 50 wt. % of the petroleum-based feedstock. The Pentasil zeolite has a pore size ranging from 5 to 6 .ANG. so that the catalyst is highly selective for LPG and C.sub.4 light olefins with minimum dry gas and coke make, and so that the vanadium tolerance of the catalyst is increased and ranges up to 21,000 PPM. The process produces a LPG yield ranging up to 40 to 65 wt. % of the fresh petroleum-based feedstock, a selectivity for the light olefins of at least 40 wt. %, and a selectivity for the LPG of at least 45 wt.

摘要:
An apparatus for catalytic cracking of feedstock includes a first channel in which a feedstock is treated with an adsorbent to obtain a treated intermediate. The apparatus further comprises a separator-reactor vessel. The separator-reactor vessel includes an adsorbent separating region to remove the adsorbent from the treated intermediate. The separator-reactor vessel further includes a second channel connected to the adsorbent separating region. The treated intermediate is contacted with a catalyst in the second channel to produce a cracking yield. The second channel terminates in a catalyst separating region of the separator-reactor vessel. The catalyst is removed from the cracking yield in the catalyst separating region. The separator-reactor vessel further includes a physical partition disposed between the adsorbent separating region and the catalyst separating region to separate the two regions.
