Description:

Consumers’ Co-operative Refineries Limited (CCRL) has successfully implemented a revamp of the 19,500 BPSD UOP* fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit located in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. The low-cost revamp included a new elevated feed injection system using Optimix * feed distributors and the first commercial implementation of VSS* riser termination, which is a novel application of the high-containment vortex separation technology for the rapid separation of catalyst and hydrocarbon products. This revamp has resulted in a marked improvement in the FCC performance and profitability. The project schedule, revamp costs, technology employed, and the benefits seen in the product yields are discussed in this paper.
