It was firstly demonstrated in 1990 and has been commercialized since 1994. Up to now, seven units have been put into production inside and outside China, and many other DCC units are under construction and in the phase of design now. Products ofpropylene and ethylene from DCCU have been used as feedstock for manufacturing high quality polypropylene, polyethylene and acrylonitrile. Many innovations on technological process, and preparation of catalytic materials used in the DCC process will be presented in this paper.展开更多
The influence of operating parameters and type of zeolite catalysts on formation of ethylene and propylene during catalytic pyrolysis of methylcyclohexane (MCH) was studied in a laboratory fixed fluidized bed reactor....The influence of operating parameters and type of zeolite catalysts on formation of ethylene and propylene during catalytic pyrolysis of methylcyclohexane (MCH) was studied in a laboratory fixed fluidized bed reactor. The results indicated that higher reaction temperature and lower WHSV tended to produce more ethylene and propylene, among which the reaction temperature was an important factor influencing the ethylene formation. Compared with the FAU and BEA type zeolites, the MFI structured zeolite catalyst, thanks to more acid sites and smaller pore diameter of the catalyst, was conducive to the formation of ethylene and propylene. The protonation occurred on different C—C bonds and C—H bonds in the carbon chain of MCH led to different product slates, and the protonation on C—C bonds located at naphthenic ring was favorable to the formation of ethylene and propylene.展开更多

The mesoporous alumina shell has a wormhole-like structure with large mesopores. The prepared catalytic cracking catalyst using this composite has exhibited excellent catalytic performance for heavy oil cracking thanks to its favorable physicochemical properties, such as high surface area, large pore volume and outstanding acid sites accessibility for large molecules provided by the composite. In comparison with the reference catalyst using pure Y zeolite, the oil conversion achieved by the above-mentioned catalyst increased by 2.73 percentage points, while the heavy oil yield and coke yield decreased by 2.23 percentage points and 1.28 percentage points, respectively, with the light oil yield increasing by 2.27 percentage points.展开更多

Oxidation kinetic parameters were further investigated by model-fitting methods. The test results showed that the oxidation of spent catalysts was a quite mild process, while coal and coal char experienced sharp weight loss during oxidation. The temperature for commencement and termination of oxidation increased in the following order： coal〈coal char〈spent catalysts, and the oxidation of the three tested materials displayed a self-catalytic nature, with their largest oxidation rate appearing at a weight percent of 24.96%, 34.21% and 57.93%, respectively. The oxidation of spent catalysts obeyed a random nucleation model for the first-order reaction, with Ea=206.13 kJ/mol and lgA=10.10, and the oxidation of coal could be a diffusion-controlled reaction mechanism, with Ea=161.61 kJ/mol and lgA=7.74, while the oxidation of coal char also obeyed a random nucleation model for the first-order reaction, with Ea= 149.36 k J/mol and lgA=7.89.展开更多

The effects of the reaction temperature and loading of lanthanum on the modified HZSM-5 catalyst on the FCC product distribution were investigated. The results showed that the yield of propylene was as high as 39.28% and the yield of aromatics reached 23.57% when the loading of La in the HZSM-5 catalyst was about 8%, when the reaction was carried under atmospheric pressure and at a reaction temperature of 500~550℃and a spatial velocity of 4.5 h^-1. The yield of aromatics dropped by 6.29% during catalytic cracking of gasoline in the presence of the zeolitic catalyst modified with 8% La.展开更多

The test results indicated that the liquid product yield increased obviously, after the surface of FCC equilibrium catalyst was impregnated with the co-catalyst. The yields of dry gas, slurry and coke decreased, while the diesel yield changed slightly. And the crackability of residue was increased; the rate of coke deposition on catalyst surface was decreased, with the thermal cracking reactions inhibited. All these results showed that the co-catalyst could improve the density of acid sites and change the catalyst acidity, which could promote to prolong the catalyst activity by depositing the co-catalyst on the surface of FCC equilibrium catalysts.展开更多

Test results have revealed that compared to the USY zeolite and Beta zeolite, the catalytic pyrolysis of n-heptane in the presence of the ZRP zeolite catalyst can result in higher yield and selectivity of ethyl- ene and propylene, while a higher reaction temperature and a higher catalyst/oil ratio can promote the formation of ethylene and propylene during catalytic pyrolysis of n-heptane. The ethylene formation reaction is more sensitive to the changes in reaction temperature, whereas the changes in catalyst/oil ratio are more influential to the propylene formation reaction. This paper has made a preliminary exploration into the different reaction pathways for formation of ethylene and propylene on zeolites with different structures.展开更多
