How to improve valve service life in Catalyst Cracking Units
A catalyst, by definition, is a substance that enhances a chemical reaction. In the refining industry, catalysts are extensively used in many upgrading processes. One common upgrading process in refineries is the Fluid Catalytic Cracking unit (FCC) unit, which converts heavier distillation cuts into lighter, more profitable products, such as gasoline. This unit has many severe service valve applications that require special attention to design and material selection.
