摘要:
Methods for reducing flue gas particulate emissions from fluid catalytic cracking unit regenerators are provided. In one embodiment, a method for reducing flue gas particulate emissions from an FCC unit regenerator includes the steps of combining biochar with a hydrocarbon feedstock to generate a biochar-containing feedstock and contacting the biochar-containing feedstock with an FCC catalyst. In another embodiment, a method for reducing flue gas particulate emissions from a FCC unit regenerator includes the steps of fluidizing catalyst fines and biochar particles in a fluidizing gas and adhering a portion of the catalyst fines to the biochar particles while in the fluidizing gas.

摘要:
Process for minimizing the amount of catalyst fines in a flue gas from a catalyst regenerator. Pyrolysis oil is injected into the reaction zone, preferably downstream from the feedstream inlet. The catalyst fines will be passed along with the hydrocarbon effluent stream and can be removed with a filter or other similar device. The amount of pyrolysis oil can be controlled, for example, based upon the opacity of the flue gas from the catalyst regenerator, or based upon the amount of catalyst injected into the reaction zone.

Methods and apparatuses are provided for cracking a hydrocarbon. The method includes contacting a first hydrocarbon stream with a cracking catalyst in a riser. The cracking catalyst is regenerated in a regenerator to produce a flue gas stream having a particulate concentration, where the flue gas stream is vented. A second stream is contacted with the cracking catalyst in the riser while the first hydrocarbon stream is contacted with the catalyst, where the second stream includes a natural oil. The particulate concentration is a second particulate concentration while the second stream contacts the cracking catalyst, and a first particulate concentration prior to the second stream contacting the cracking catalyst. The first particulate concentration is greater than the second particulate concentration.
