A Technical and Economical Evaluation of CO2 Capture from Fluidized Catalytic Cracking (FCC) Flue Gas

Environmental issues, related to greenhouse gas and among them CO2, are becoming short term challenges. Pressure on industries and therefore on refining to limit and manage CO2 emissions will be reinforced in next few years. Refining industry is responsible for about 2.7% of global CO2 emissions...

description Environmental issues, related to greenhouse gas and among them CO2, are becoming short term challenges. Pressure on industries and therefore on refining to limit and manage CO2 emissions will be reinforced in next few years. Refining industry is responsible for about 2.7% of global CO2 emissions. Fluidized Catalytic Cracking unit (FCC), one of the main process in refining, represents by itself 20% of the refinery CO2 emissions. As FCC unit is present in half of the refining schemes, it is challenging to find technologies to manage its emissions. Based on an industrial case, the aims of the presented work are to determine if amine technology HiCapt+, developed for power plant, might be a relevant solution to manage FCC CO2 emissions and to evaluate the additional cost to be supported by refiners.
