Abstract

The problem of modeling pyrolysis of naphtha in a modern SRT-VI large-capacity furnace from ABB Lummus Global (USA) was examined. Curves of the yield of basic products as a function of the composition of the feedstock and pyrolysis regime were obtained with the experimental data and physicochemical characteristics of the process. The model is intended for predicting the composition of pyrolysis gas and controlling the pyrolytic process in an active plant.
