HS-FCCA "revolutionary" heavy oil refining technology being developed in Japan has the potential to make available additional volumes of feedstock to create new petrochemical capacity in Alberta in the not-too-distant future. Called high-severity fluid catalytic cracking (HS-FCC) refinery, the pilot project is capable of converting low-value gas-oils to higher yields of high-value feedstock for use in petrochemical processes. In simple terms, it could convert heavy oil to streams of ethane, propane and butane. See news forum FCC News
We are inviting contractors, vendors, and suppliers to advertise their capabilities for construction, turnarounds, catalysts, FCC equipment such as control systems, conventional and specialty pumps and valves, slide valves, air and wet gas compressors, exchangers, cyclones
