Scope of Modelling and control of an FCC unit
Keywords:
FCC, riser, regeneratorAbstract
Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is an essentia gas oil to gasoline. model uses three lump kinetics to describe the cracking reactions in the
riser considered as a plug-flow system. The riser behavior is described by gasoil, gasoline, coke and energy balances as a plug flow reactor. The separator is considered as a CSTR. The regenerator mainly constituted by a dense and a dilute zone is also considered as a CSTR to represent the catalyst and its dynamic behavior is described by coke, oxygen and energy balances.
