Future challenges in environment and product specifications involve more sophisticated catalyst systems
Improve catalytic cracking to produce clean fuels
Update the cracker heat balance to minimize coke make
Increase light olefins production
New methods based on proven FCC technology provide additional olefins source
Revitalize stripping operations with structured packing
Poor stripper performance of FCC spent catalyst burns up products and profits. New retrofit methods cut operating cost and increase product yields
