Technology Description

Innovative Technology for Upgrading Fuel Oil Components into Premium Value Products. Novel Concept of Integration of Solvent Extraction and Catalytic Cracking upgrades residue and provides good quality recycle feed stream and other valuable by-products

Applications

Upgradation of FCC Residue in Petroleum refineries having Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit.

Benefits

Innovative technology - integration of solvent extraction of clarified oil and catalytic cracking of raffinate - is unique of its kind in its application and is the first reference worldwide, which has been exploited in actual petroleum refinery operation at commercial scale. No reference of such type of process or its commercial usage is available nor there is any equivalent or alternate process available. The process technology developed extracts out good quality feed stock components suitable for catalytic cracking from clarified oil (FCC Residue) and recycles them with FCC feed to improve yield of FCC products. At the same time, aromatic rich stream suitable for production of carbon black and other high value industrial/ advanced carbon materials are also co-produced. This process leads to better FCC product yields and higher overall profitability.
