Title:
PROCESS FOR FLEXIBLE VACUUM GAS OIL CONVERSION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/011339
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the selective conversion of hydrocarbon feed having a Conradson Carbon Residue content of 0 to 6 wt%, based on the hydrocarbon feed (8). The hydrocarbon feed (18) is treated in a two-step process. The first is thermal conversion (12) and the second is catalytic cracking (26) of the products of the thermal conversion (12). The present invention results in a process for increasing the distillate production (16) from a hydrocarbon feedstream for a fluid catalytic cracking unit. The resulting product slate from the present invention can be further varied by changing the conditions in the thermal (12) and catalytic cracking (26) steps as well as by changing the catalyst in the cracking step (26).
