Modeling of gas oil catalytic cracking based on the MAT test

In the present work, catalytic cracking of gas oils has been studied in a standard MAT reactor. Distribution of the cracking product was measured at four different temperatures, and two types of feedstocks were used. Based on these experimental results, a 4-lump kinetic model was applied. Kinetic constants were estimated using sequential step optimization method. Simulation results are in a good agreement with experimental data. An isothermal pseudo steady-state model for the fixed bed MAT reactor was proposed. The influence of feedstock and reactor temperature on overall conversion and distribution of product fractions were discussed.
