Recently SINOPEC after having made a lot of progress in the area of oil refining at the molecular level has developed a new generation DMMC-1 type catalyst designed for the DCC process. The laboratory evaluation tests have shown that compared to the existing MMC-2 type catalyst that features the best comprehensive performance, the DMMC-1 type catalyst has increased the propylene yield by 2.2% with the propylene selectivity increased by 10%. The said catalyst has improved its ability for heavy oil cracking and coke selectivity along with reduction of olefin content in gasoline to achieve a better product distribution and improve the product quality. The results of application of the said catalyst in a 650-kt/a commercial DCC unit at SINOPEC Anqing Branch Company have revealed that the DMMC- 1 catalyst demonstrated an enhanced capability for heavy oil cracking and could increase the total liquid yield to 84.56 m% from 83.92 m%, the LPG yield to 38.90 m % from 34.60 m %, the propylene yield to 17.80 m% from 15.37 m% and the propylene concentration to 45.91 m% from 44.91 m%, and reduce the coke yield from 7.61 m% to 7.05 m% and the olefin content in gasoline from 42.3 v% to 37.5 v%, resulting in an incremental profit amounting to 52.19 million RMB a year. This technology has further upgraded and developed the DCC technology which has been commanding a leading position among the industry peers.展开更多
