APPARATUS FOR INJECTING HYDROCARBON CHARGE INTO CALALYTIC CRACKING REACTOR

摘要

Device for injecting a hydrocarbon feedstock into a catalytic cracking reactor, comprising, from upstream towards downstream in the direction of travel of the feedstock, a system (5) for allowing to enter and mixing the liquid hydrocarbon feedstock and steam, a venturi (6) whose converging cone (10) is connected to the said system (5) for allowing to enter and mixing, and a protective hood (7) integrally attached to the diverging cone (14) of this venturi and having an orifice (16) for injecting the feedstock into the reactor. …The dimensions of the venturi (6) are such that the speed of mixing of the liquid feedstock and of steam therein reaches sonic conditions at the neck (13) and the rectilinear neck situated between the divergent cone (14) and the convergent cone (10) is connected to the latter in a continuous manner by a curved profile in the form of an angle greater than 5 DEG and approximately 15 DEG respectively with the axis of the venturi. ……
