The MIP pro-cess features a unique riser consisting of two sequential reaction zones with different radii,in which different kinds of chemical reactions are intensified respectively to achieve better product slates and product properties. In order to fully implement the MIP potentials,a proprietary catalyst RMI tailored to the needs of the MIP process was devel-oped by adopting an AIRY zeolite having improved accessibility to active sites,which could result in better heavy oil cracking,coke selectivity and olefin reduction performance compared with the conventional REUSY zeolite. Its commercial application showed that the RMI catalyst could further reduce the olefin content in gasoline and raise the gasoline octane number while increasing the total liquid yield. On the basis of the MIP process,the MIP-CGP process was also developed to significantly reduce the olefin content in FCC naphtha and to enhance the propylene yield simultaneously. As far as the MIP-CGP process itself is concerned,both the MIP-CGP process and the MIP process have the similar reactor configuration but with different reactor size and operating parameters. The proprietary catalyst CGP-1 is also proposed to tailor for the MIP-CGP process. The specific features of the CGP-1 catalyst cover the new matrix,which possesses excellent capability to accommodate coke formation in the first reaction zone;the modified Y zeolite,which exhibits high hydrogen transfer activity in the second reaction zone;and the MFI zeolite,which has good gasoline olefin cracking activity. The commercial test results of MIP-CGP process applied along with the CGP-1 catalyst showed that the olefin content of gasoline was less than 18 v% and the propylene yield was more than 8 m%. Furthermore,as compared with the conventional FCC process,the gasoline properties were improved greatly and a higher total liquid yield was obtained. The advantages and characteristics of the MIP-CGP process were fully exploited by using the CGP-1 catalyst.展开更多
