One-way conversion rate
Thread Content
One-way conversion rate = (gas + gasoline + coke) / total feed volume. Why is it gas + gasoline + coke in the numerator? Why isn’t diesel included? I hope some kind person who understands can explain it to me. . . . .
To address this question, you need to understand the development history of catalytic cracking; since initial catalytic cracking processes used diesel as the raw material, the products included in the conversion rate did not cover diesel.
Support those upstairs. It’s mentioned in the textbooks on petroleum processing we studied in university; in the past, diesel was used as a raw material, so it wasn’t considered a target product. The current conversion rate should be: one-way conversion rate = (gas + gasoline + diesel + coke) / total feed volume. I wonder if everyone agrees with this view
When calculating the one-way conversion rate, we still do not include diesel as a component in the calculation; therefore, when considering the conversion rate, the liquid yield can be used as a supplementary reference.
