Abstract

A great has been published regarding the effect of metals on fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts suggesting that an estimate of catalyst contaminant levels is required before their effects on the catalyst activity and selectivity can be quantified. A mathematical model is proposed for the determination of the catalyst metals level in a commercial FCC unit. It is also shown that the proposed model is quite useful in estimating the level of feed metals on catalyst when the metals do not hit the unit at a steady state rate. This is particularly true when resid type feeds are being processed. These results alongwith other information are capable to suggest the feed-stock-catalyst combination required to achieve desired FCC unit objectives.
