Increasing FCC gasoline octane additive

Increasing FCC gasoline octane additive

FCCCAT offers a variety of additives designed for increasing gasoline octane number LPG olefin maximization. Our FCC additives maximizing gasoline pool octane while maintain the gasoline yield or little drop (<0.5wt%). In addition, these additives maintain total yields of gasoline and LPG while operating in LCO maximization mode.

Commercial Experience

Aside from increasing the gasoline octane additives can be used to provide economic benefit in a variety of scenarios. One refinery realized the benefit during a turnaround on a catalytic reformer. Octane short and with no opportunity to increase riser temperature, Our additives was used to boost the overall octane from the FCC complex. The use of special modification ZSM-5 based additives boosts the FCC gasoline octane number, which are high in both motor and research octane. At the same time, the FCC gasoline yield will be slightly reduced (<0.5wt%) at constant riser temperature, but the octane is higher, on the order of 1.0 to 1.5 numbers. When the total octane properties of the FCC gasoline and alkylate are added together, there is an increase in the octane of the total gasoline pool from the FCC complex.

Why chose FCCCAT additives

FCCCAT additives lift the gasoline octane by selective conversion of straight chain paraffin and alkyl components into isoparaffin, while producing no change in coke, dry gas or bottoms yields. Utilizing advanced manufacturing methods for modification ZSM-5 with higher Si/Al, FCCCAT fcc additives retain activity as crystal input increases, minimizing dilution of fresh catalyst activity and bottoms cracking, while delivering industry-leading attrition resistance.
