Resumen:
Bio-oils derived from the pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass can be
co-processed with conventional feedsocks in the catalytic cracking of
hydrocarbons (FCC)1. Then, it is necessary to analyze the
contribution of bio-oils to the typical FCC product distributions, particularly
to coke.
A previous thermal treatment can reduce up to 70 % the potential of
bio-oil to form coke, which is higher than that in FCC feedstocks (vacuum gas
oil, VGO)2.
The product distributions in the conversion of pine sawdust bio-oil (BO)
and the liquid product after its thermal treatment (TL) over two different
laboratory reactors are compared in this work. An equilibrium commercial catalyst
was used in a fixed-bed MAT reactor and a CREC Riser Simulator reactor3
(RisSim) at 500 ºC.
The confined fluidized bed of the RisSim mimics the ideal transport fluidized
bed of commercial units.
