Multi-Stage Reaction Catalysts: A Breakthrough Innovation in FCC Technology

摘要

BASF has introduced its latest FCC catalyst manufacturing innovation, the Multi-Stage Reaction Catalyst (MSRC) platform. This breakthrough manufacturing development takes advantage of staged reactions with different catalytic attributes much the same way that staged hydrotreating catalyst loading permits different reaction zones in a fixed bed reactor vessel. The concept of staged reactions is not new to the refining industry, but its application to a circulating system like FCC is a true step forward in catalyst technology.
