I’m new to catalytic cracking. May I ask, are turbines and compressors the same thing? Is a turbine a type of rich gas compressor? Can’t figure it out, thanks
This is a broad question that covers steam turbines as well as rich gas compressors; it seems you know quite a lot – at least you’ve worked with units involved in catalysis, coking, and similar processes. In that case, it is recommended to start by learning from the information available on the compressor units that you are familiar with*. You can then ask more questions after half a year, which will be more efficient. :lol

The poster’s friend is an experienced expert in sulfur processing; it’s normal for him to have knowledge in catalytic cracking as well, making it difficult to distinguish between the two fields. 2. Simplifying complex matters: 2.1. Difference in media: steam and rich gas. Literally speaking, those containing water are steam, while those without water are petroleum gas. 2.2. Difference in parameters: Steam is subjected to pressure reduction, while rich gas is subjected to pressure increase. 2.3. Primary and secondary components: The rich gas compressor extracts energy; The turbine provides energy
A rich gas compressor mainly consists of a steam turbine and a compressor; steam drives the steam turbine, which in turn drives the compressor
Go and check out the catalytic unit on site, and you’ll understand
The turbine provides power, while the compressor compresses the rich gas.
