Description:

Light olefins are a valuable raw material for the petrochemical industry, as well as for producing high quality gasoline through alkylation and etherification. One possible and low investment option to meet these demands is to install a second external parallel riser in an FCC unit to process pure naphtha at severe conditions. Although Petrobras has been operating double riser units successfully since the early 1990s,light olefin yields were never properly quantified, since the initial objective of such units was merely to improve the quality of coker naphtha and maximize LPG.
