Selective Steam Cracking of Heavy Oil in Semibatch Reactor
Conference attendances
The work is devoted to investigation of catalytic steam cracking of heavy oil (Tatarstan, Russia) at 425 – 450 oC with
elicitation of such subprocesses as just thermocracking and steam cracking without catalyst. In the case of the catalytic steam cracking 10 % Fe2O3/γ-Al2O3 impregnated catalyst was used. It was obtained, that introducing of water into the
thermocracking of the heavy oil has led to significant increase of liquid products (from 60 to 75 wt %) with imultaneous
decrease of gases and coke. Introducing the catalyst has led to increase of H : C ratio from 1.70 in HO to 1.78 in the liquid products of the catalytic steam cracking
