FCC PROCESS WITH AN INTEGRATED SECONDARY REACTOR FOR INCREASED LIGHT OLEFIN YIELDS

摘要

A process for increasing the yields of propylene is presented. The process is an FCC process for producing light olefins, and utilizes a smaller secondary reactor that uses the same catalyst, or a different catalyst as in the FCC reactor. The FCC effluent is separated, and C4 and C5 olefins are recovered. The C4 and C5 olefins are passed to the secondary reactor for cracking to generate increased light olefin yields.
