Abstract

Based upon the operation of FCC gasoline hydrotreating units in China,the problems encountered in the engineering of FCC gasoline hydrotreating process are described such as great loss of gasoline octane number,higher mercaptan in hydrtreated heavy gasoline,off-specification of mixed hydrotreated gasoline in doctor test,coke deposition on top of hydrotreating reactor,rising pressure drop of reactor and shorter operating cycle.The root causes of the problems are analyzed and countermeasures are recommended.
