Features: This book is a training manual for technicians and senior technicians of catalytic cracking units. Its content is based on the requirements for technicians and senior technicians as specified in the "National Vocational Standards," while fully considering the current status of workers in enterprises. The entire book covers basic properties of petroleum, fundamental knowledge of petrochemical engineering, basic principles of petroleum refining and catalytic cracking, catalytic cracking process, equipment operation and maintenance, instrumentation, automation, and electrical knowledge, reading drawings and basic calculations, health, safety, and environmental knowledge, as well as paper writing and training. Each section is organized closely around the materials, equipment, production processes, and operational characteristics of catalytic cracking units, with moderate theoretical depth. The production processes are closely integrated with the production processes of existing catalytic cracking units, and attention is paid to appropriately advancing technology to reflect new processes, technologies, equipment, and catalysts in catalytic cracking, making it highly practical. This book is suitable for the skill assessment training of technicians in catalytic cracking units; it can also be used as a reference for technical personnel in refineries, as well as for teachers and students of petroleum refining programs in universities and colleges. If it is a two-stage regeneration system, the enthalpy should be adopted separately for the dilute-phase temperatures of the first and second stages.
