Stripper Optimization
Periodic test runs should be conducted to assure the stripping steam ratio is optimizedsteam ratio is optimized
Step the steam rate down until the regenerator temperature starts to increase or the excess O2 drops
When a temperature increase is observed, increase the steam ~5% , %to provide flexibility

C + ½ O CO (H t R l 22%)C + ½ O2 CO (Heat Release = 22%)
CO + ½ O2 CO2 (Heat Release = 78%)
Proper coke burning depends on good mixing of the catalyst and air in the regenerator

Analisis Y Vs X En el anterior análisis histórico se observa que hay tres factores principalmente: Menor calidad de la carga Mayor contenido de metales contaminantes en el ECAT
Menor temperatura de Reacción que han ocasionado que el Rendimiento de Gasolina se vea afectado de manera negativa por lo tanto a continuación se revisa a Menor temperatura de Reacción, que han ocasionado que el Rendimiento de Gasolina se vea afectado de manera negativa, por lo tanto a continuación se revisa através de un análisis multivariable cuales de estos factores son los de mayor impacto y se comprueba cómo la situación actual es resultado de dichas condiciones,teniendo en cuenta los siguientes principios:
Causas
Caida en Rendimiento a Gasolina / Conversión
Cambios en la calidad de la
carga
Cambios en las propiedades del
catalizador
Cambios en las condiciones de
operación
Cambios en las condiciones mecánicas
• Disminución del factor K • Diminución Mat y Area • Disminución en la • Deterioro en las
• Menor API
• Incremento el % de residuo - carbón
• Mayor contenido de metales

• Bajo punto final de la gasolina

• Graficar propiedades de la carga para analizar tendencias : API KUOP
• Analizar tendencias de actividad, metales, RE y UCS

• Con base en el anterior análisis gráfico se determinó que las variables que mejor correlacionan con el rendimiento a Gasolina son: La Temperatura de Reacción y elcontenido de metales desactivantes
• El Factor KUOP, correlaciona de manera adecuada, pero como parece no representar muy bien el deterioro de la carga su impacto no se ve tan grande, y la relaciónC/O que ha tenido cambios algo erraticos ultimamente (asociados al análisis ORSAT), NO CORRELACIONA de manera adecuada con el comportamiento de lagasolina, pues a mayor C/O deberia tenersemayor gasolina y aquí vemos que su pendiente es negativa.
