Technology

When processing residues containing high levels of metals (Ni, V and Na) and ConC values in excess of 3 wt.%, more sophisticated FCC designs are required. 

The Reactor-2-Regenerator (R2R™) design was developed to specifically meet the challenge of heavy resid processing.

The unique two-stage regeneration system permits safe regeneration of catalyst containing high levels of metals, principally vanadium that would otherwise rapidly deactivate the catalyst.
