Manufacture of propylene and ethylene in a FCC unit. Each FCC riser comprises an acceleration zone, a lift stream feed nozzle, a main hydrocarbon stock feed nozzle, and an olefinic naphtha feed nozzle. Mixed FCC catalyst comprising at least 2 percent by weight pentasil zeolite and at least 10 percent by weight Y-zeolite is injected at the bottom of each FCC riser. Olefinic naptha is injected through the olefinic feed nozzle, main hydrocarbon stock is injected through the main hydrocarbon stock feed nozzle and lift stream is injected through the lift stream feed nozzle. Lift stream comprises olefinic C4 hydrocarbon stream and optionally steam and/or a fuel gas. Olefinic C4 hydrocarbon steam is cracked in the acceleration zone at 600 to 800° C., 0.8 to 5 kg/cm2 (gauge) pressure, WHSV 0.2 to 100 hr up 1 and vapour residence time 0.2 to 5 seconds.
摘要:
A process is disclosed for enhanced recovery of propylene and LPG from the fuel gas produced in Fluid catalytic cracking unit by contacting a heavier hydrocarbon feed with FCC catalyst. In the conventional process, the product mixture from FCC main column overhead comprising naphtha, LPG and fuel gas, are first condensed and gravity separated to produce unstabilized naphtha, which is subsequently used in the absorber to absorb propylene and LPG from fuel gas. However, the recovery of propylene beyond 97 wt % is difficult in this process since unstabilized naphtha already contains propylene of 5 mol % or above. In the present invention, C4 and lighter components from unstabilized naphtha are first stripped off in a separate column to obtain a liquid fraction almost free from propylene (

A sequential processing for heavy petroleum residues is disclosed which uses a separate mixture of catalyst and adsorbent. The solid adsorbent and FCC (fluids catalytic cracking) catalyst particles differ significant at least on particle size or density or both. The adsorbent preferably consist of calcined coke or metal oxides of Al, Si, or Mg having enhanced ability of selectively capture different impurities of the residual oil. The adsorbent particles first treat the residual hydrocarbons in the riser bottom end subsequently the actual catalyst tales care of catalytic cracking in the upper section of the riser. The spent solid mixture is fed to the catalyst separator which uses steam at sufficiently high velocity but at lower temperature to lift the catalyst particles out of the separator. Such a novel low temperature faster separation minimizes Vanadium mobility and deactivation of the catalyst. A net coke stream is withdrawn from the separator/burner especially while processing residues above 5 wt % CCR. This allows successful processing of even very heavy residues with CCR of 20 wt % and metals (vanadium & nickel) or 300 ppm, without requiring higher catalyst make up or catalyst and edsorbent cooling.

The present invention provides a process for the upgradation of petroleum residue into useful fractions by subjecting petroleum residue in the presence of a solvent and ferrous sulphate catalyst to a pressure in the range of 10 atm. to 120 atm., temperature in the range of 380-420° C., for a period in the range of 0-120 minutes, in a reactor vessel, in an inert atmosphere. The charge is then cooled to room temperature and the product gas released through scrubbers. The residue is re-heated, if required, for free flow of liquid product. The resulting liquid product is distilled to obtain useful fractions.

A fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process for manufacturing propylene and ethylene in increased yield. The process comprises cracking an olefinic naphtha stream and main hydrocarbon stock in combination with an olefinic C4 hydrocarbon stream in different zones of one or more risers of an FCC unit. Each FCC riser comprises an acceleration zone at the lower portion thereof, a lift stream feed nozzle at the bottom of the acceleration zone, a main hydrocarbon stock feed nozzle above the acceleration zone and an olefinic naphtha feed nozzle at a location along the acceleration zone between the lift stream feed nozzle and main hydrocarbon stock feed nozzle. The cracking is carried out on a mixed FCC catalyst comprising at least 2 percent by weight pentasil zeolite and at least 10 percent by weight Y-zeolite. The catalyst is injected at the bottom of each FCC riser, the olefinic naptha is injected through the olefinic feed nozzle, the main hydrocarbon stock is injected through the main hydrocarbon stock feed nozzle and the lift stream is injected through the lift stream feed nozzle at the bottom of the acceleration zone. The lift stream comprises the olefinic C4 hydrocarbon stream with or without steam and/or a fuel gas. The olefinic C4 hydrocarbon steam is cracked in the acceleration zone at 600 to 8000° C. and pressure of 0.8 to 5 kg/cm up 2 (gauge) and weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 0.2 to 100 hr up 1 and vapour residence time of 0.2 to 5 seconds.
摘要:
A fluidized catalytic cracking process for catalytically cracking a feed to lighter products includes introducing a heated catalyst and the feed into a bottom riser of a fluidized catalytic cracking apparatus and allowing the heated catalyst and the feed to preaccelerate upwardly within the bottom riser as a mixture; flowing the mixture upwardly from the bottom riser through a plurality of microriser tubes disposed within a regenerator under conditions effective to cause a cracking reaction of the hydrocarbons and result in a mixture including coked catalyst and hydrocarbon vapors; passing the mixture from the microriser tubes through a catalyst separator for separating the coked catalyst from the hydrocarbon vapors; collecting coked catalyst in a stripper for stripping out hydrocarbon vapors carried along with the coked catalyst and introducing the coked catalyst collected into a regenerator; simultaneous with flowing the mixture, combusting the coked catalyst within the regenerator under conditions effective to cause regeneration of the catalyst so that hot regenerated catalyst is produced and heat transferred to the microriser tubes; introducing the hot regenerated catalyst from the regenerator into the bottom riser for facilitating continuous operation; and directing hydrocarbon vapors from the catalyst separator and from the stripper to a fractionator for separation of products.

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.
