Modelling and simulation of an industrial RFCCU-riser reactor for catalytic cracking of vacuum residue

Abstract A one-dimensional adiabatic mathematical model was developed for the riser reactor of an industrial residue fluid catalytic cracking unit (RFCCU). A seven-lump kinetic model was presented for the catalytic cracking of vacuum residue, taking cognisance of diffusion resistance, which is a dep...
