Mechanism of coke formed during 'thermal cracking of hydrocarbon
ABSTRACT: The cracking investigation was done in the bench-scale apparatus consisting of a simulated cracking tube of a square cross section (346 mm2) formed from four removable, 20 x 560 mm strips of metal. Propylene and LPG were used as feed stocks, because propylene yields coke at relatively low...

Summary: | ABSTRACT:
The cracking investigation was done in the bench-scale apparatus consisting of a simulated cracking tube of a square cross section (346 mm2) formed from four removable, 20 x 560 mm strips of metal. Propylene and LPG were used as feed stocks, because propylene yields coke at relatively low temperature (823 K). LPG was chosen because it is common feedstock for ethylene production. To study the effect of material of construction, three different metals or alloys, stainless steel 304, Incoloy 800 and carbon steel were used
The results show that the formation of coke depends on cracking duration, cracking temperature and type of metal used for cracking reactor. |
