Preliminary study of FCC design for palm-based biofuel production through heat balance analysis

Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC] is playing a big role in oil refinery industries and it has been used for producing most of the fuel around the world. FCC has also a great potential for producing biofuel derived from palm-based bio oil. However, it takes a complex calculation to design the overall FC...

Description
Summary:Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC] is playing a big role in oil refinery industries and it has been used for producing most of the fuel around the world. FCC has also a great potential for producing biofuel derived from palm-based bio oil. However, it takes a complex calculation to design the overall FCC system. This paper offers the design simplification of FCC through heat balance analysis in two main components, that is riser section and regenerator section. The objective of this study is to estimate the appropriate amount of fuel for a given amount of feed. It is obtained that the required amount of fuel is greater as amount of the given feed increased.
