Title:
A DESIGN FOR DRYING REGENERATED CATALYST IN ROUTE TO A PROPANE DEHYDROGENATION REACTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/030601
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An apparatus and process are presented for drying a catalyst in a reactor-regenerator system. The process includes a continuous operating system with catalyst circulating between a reactor and regenerator, and the catalyst is dried before returning the catalyst to the reactor. The process uses air that is split between the drying stage and the combustion stage without adding equipment outside of the regenerator, minimizing energy, capital cost, and space requirements.
