Petroleum refining

Typical modern catalytic cracking reactors operate at 480–550 °C (900–1,020 °F) and at relatively low pressures of 0.7 to 1.4 bars (70 to 140 KPa), or 10 to 20 psi. At first natural silica-alumina clays were used as catalysts, but by the mid-1970s zeolitic and molecular sieve-based catalysts became common. Zeolitic catalysts give more ...

As the mixture travels up the riser, the charge is cracked at 10-30 psi. In the more modern FCC units, all cracking takes place in the riser. The "reactor" no longer functions as a reactor; it merely serves as a holding vessel for the cyclones. This cracking continues until the oil vapors are separated from the catalyst in the reactor cyclones.
