The Greener FCC – Movingfrom Fuels to Petrochemicals

HARVEY MCQUISTON AND STEVE SHIMODATECHNIP STONE & WEBSTER PROCESS TECHNOLOGYGPS – LISBON, NOVEMBER 14-16 2016

The FCC Alliance

The FCC Alliance is a coalition of 4 companies dedicatedto the promotion, development, and improvement of fluidcatalytic cracking technologies to efficiently producesafer, cleaner, and higher quality petroleum basedproducts for the benefit of our society.

The GreeningTrend of FCC

►Since 1940’s, the primary role of FCC hasbeen to produce gasoline from VGO

►In the 80’s the high price of crude pushedthe FCC into processing more resid (morelight products per barrel of crude)

►Newer FCCs are larger, more efficient, andon stream longer

►Preferred feedstock today is either resid orhydrotreated VGO

►The current trend is the petrochemicalapplication of FCC to make propylene infavor of gasoline

Fuels vs Propylene Based FCCs

Fuels FCC (38)

Propylene FCC (22)

61 grassroots units licensed the FCC Alliance since 1981 22 propylene based FCC licensed since 2005 80% of FCCs licensed since 2005 are propylene based

Future Petrochemical Role for FCC

►Estimated incremental demand forpropylene from FCCs by 2022 isexpected to be 11 Mta

►Flexibility to shift FCC operationbetween max gasoline and maxpropylene

►Feedstock flexibility – tight oil tohydrotreated VGOs to resids

►Integration of both new andexisting FCCs with petrochemicalfacilities will greatly enhanceeconomics

The FCC route to propylene

Resid FCC to Propylene – R2P

►2–stage regeneration for heatbalance

►Cracking of resid feed in primaryriser

►2nd riser for light naphtha recyclecracking

►Propylene yield over 12 wt%

►Ethylene yield of 2 wt% can berecovered economically withintegration of steam cracker

►Butylenes can be oligomerized toC8s & C12s and recycled to riser toincrease propylene

Deep Catalytic Cracking to Propylene

►For high hydrogen content feeds (VGO andmild resids)

►Lower overall hydrocarbon partial pressurecompared to FCC

- Low operating pressure

- High dilution steam

►Utilizes both riser and bed cracking

►Higher riser severity for primary cracking

►Secondary cracking of recycled C4s andlight naphtha

►Propylene yields 15 to 20 wt%

►Ethylene yields of 5 wt%

Conclusion

►Propylene demand continues to grow at arate of 4% and FCC is expected to contribute30% of new incremental demand.

►Most new FCC units will be based onpropylene production and integrated withpetrochemical facilities, but these new unitswill not completely meet expected demandalone.

►The latest FCC technology can also beapplied to existing FCC units to shift fromfuels to petrochemical mode of operation,producing not only a higher margin productslate, but also displacing some of the fuelsproducts that contribute to greenhousegases.
