Description
Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is one of the most important and complicated processes in petroleum refining. This book provides practical information covering all key areas of FCC. The book focuses on the fundamental topics affecting FCC operations, such as: FCC process technology; FCC feedstock properties; selecting the proper FCC catalyst; chemistry of cat cracking reactions; monitoring and evaluating FCC unit performance; maximizing profit margin and enhancing unit reliability; and design parameters for modifying existing unit equipment.
