Abstract: | The feasibility analysis of integrating methanol to olefins (MTO) with fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) process is based on their similarities and compatibility. Feeding methanol in FCC is proposed to produce more light olefins. According to the characters of FCC, the effects of reaction temperature, water co-feed, and the coke content of catalyst in methanol conversion were studied systematically. It is concluded that high light olefins yields from methanol conversion were obtained on the FCC condition. Feeding methanol in FCC at the bottom of riser as the proper position was suggested on the ground of comparison with MGD process of FCC. The research proved the feasibility of feeding methanol in FCC and provided important reference for its commercial application in a certain degree. |
