ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises two major sections: (1) Cracking; and (2) Fractionation.</p><p>Cracking. First, a hydrotreating step increases the cracking potential of the soybean oil. Subsequently the oil is purified from contaminants (e.g. alkali metals, water) by means of ion exchange. The cracking reactions occur in a vertical reactor riser, in which the soybean oil stream contacts regenerated zeolite catalysts. The soybean is vaporized by the hot catalyst and cracked to lighter products, in such a way that the resultant vapors move up the riser carrying the catalyst. A C4-C5 stream from fractionation section is also cracked in a secondary fast-fluidized bed reactor. The catalysts are then fed to a regenerator where coke deposited in the catalysts is burned with air at high temperatures and recycled to the reactors. The circulating catalyst rate is a key operating variable related to both heat supply and conversion.</p><p>Fractionation. The reactors outputs are sent to main fractionation, in which they are separated in various products. Initially, light cycle oil and clarified oil are obtained as fuel oil. The main stream is compressed and separated in a high-pressure separator, used to separate liquid (heavy components) from gases (light components). The liquid is purified in a stripper that strips off C2- from the liquid phase (not shown in the diagram). Then, it is further fractionated so pyrolysis gasoline, LPG and PG Propylene are obtained. The off-gas from high-pressure separator is also purified in contacting with two heavy streams and in an absorption column by means of a MDEA solvent. The treated stream is sent to two distillation columns, where methane, ethane and by-product ethylene are recovered.</p><p></p>
ICC - Short Description: It presents the economics of Polymer Grade (PG) Propylene production from soybean oil in the United States, via a typical fluid catalytic process (FCC). In this process, soybean oil is cracked into olefin-rich light gases, including propylene. In order to yield greater amounts of propylene, the light gases are fed to a secondary FCC reactor.
