Catalyst mixing regenerator

摘要

One exemplary embodiment can be a process for mixing catalyst in a regenerator. The process can include providing a first stream of catalyst, a second stream of catalyst mixed with the first stream of catalyst, and an oxygen-containing gas to a chamber via a distributor of the regenerator. Generally, the chamber imparts a swirl to at least one of the oxygen-containing gas, the first catalyst, and the second catalyst for regenerating the catalyst.

主权项

1. A regenerator for regenerating catalyst, comprising:
A) a base; wherein the base comprises:
1) at least one wall;2) a first conduit for transporting catalyst; and3) a second conduit for transporting catalyst; B) a gas distributor proximate to a bottom of the base; and C) a chamber positioned over the gas distributor and spaced apart from the at least one wall; wherein the chamber forms at least one outlet and terminates in a cap for imparting a swirl to a gas rising therefrom.
