More Information
Summary:Systems and methods for the catalytic cracking of light hydrocarbons, such as naphtha, to form light olefins and aromatics is disclosed. The systems and methods may include a catalytic cracking process that involves mixing catalyst with a gas and then this mixture is used to contact a hydrocarbon feed, e.g., light straight run naphtha or heavy straight run naphtha. The hydrocarbon feed may be mixed with dry gas such as methane and/or hydrogen to dilute the hydrocarbon feed, before the hydrocarbon feed is contacted with the catalyst/gas mixture.
