Separators continuous catalyst regeneration

Description The process consists of a reactor section, continuous catalyst regeneration (CCR) section and product-recovery section. Stacked radial-flow reactors (1) facilitate catalyst transfer to and from the CCR catalyst regeneration section (2). A charge heater and interheaters (3) achieve optimum conversion and selectivity for the endothermic reaction. Reactor effluent is separated into liquid and vapor products (4). The liquid product is sent to a stripper column (5) to remove light saturates from the C6 aromatic product. Vapor from the separator is compressed and sent to a gas recovery unit (6). The compressed vapor is then separated into a 95% pure hydrogen coproduct, a fuel-gas stream containing light byproducts and a recycled stream of unconverted LPG. [Pg.37]

The fluidized reactor system is similar to that of a refineiy FCC unit and consists of riser reactor, regenerator vessel, air compression, catalyst handling, flue-gas handling and feed and effluent heat recovery. Using this reactor system with continuous catalyst regeneration allows higher operating temperatures than with fixed-bed reactors so that paraffins, as well as olefins, are converted. The conversion of paraffins allows substantial quantities of paraffins in the feedstream and recycle of unconverted feed without need to separate olefins and paraffins. [Pg.103]

An important advantage of the fluidized-bed reactor over the fixed-bed type is that the catalyst can be regenerated without disturbing the operation of the reactor. In fluidized-bed catalytic cracking units a portion of the solid particles is continuously removed from the reactor and regenerated in a separate unit. The regeneration is accomplished by burning off the carbon with air, and the reactivated catalyst is continuously returned to the reactor proper. In the fixed-bed reactor the closest approach to... [Pg.126]
