Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is robust in predicting and analyzing complex multiphase flow hydrodynamics, especially on fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) phenomena in fluid-solid reaction. This study presented the replacement valve as a regulator of the catalyst's distribution from the Regenerator to the Riser in a pilot-scale fluid catalytic cracking (FCC). On a large scale, FCC applies Slide valves/plug valves as a regulator of the catalyst rate from the Regenerator to the Riser also stops nitrogen flow Riser. However, Slide valves are carefully designed with abrasion-resistant protection for improving the reliability of the valve. Internal insulation allows to use of carbon steel for the body of the valves. It is impossible on a pilot plant scale because the dimeter pipe is small, making the catalyst often stuck in the valve and nitrogen escapes to the Riser. The solution is chiffon or layered U pipe by flowing the air below to regulate the catalyst and solve the Riser's nitrogen leakage. This study uses the CFD approach, specifically the MMPIC and DEM models, including the preliminary validation with catalyst dimension based on the Geldart group A and A ' Miyauchi.


Introduction

Indonesia sepanjang 2019 mencapai 51,8 juta ton CPO, dari sumber tersebut dapat di olah menjadi green fuel, sebelum menjadi Green Fuel, CPO di olah dahulu menjadi Bleached and Deodorized Palm Oil (RBDPO) 100% kemudian di proses dengan metode Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC). The process of the FCC unit consists of the feed injection system, riser, riser outlet separator system, disengager/stripper, regenerator, catalyst cooler (optional), catalyst withdrawal well, catalyst transfer lines, and control systems. Product pengolahan RBDPO dengan menggunakkan FCC yang utama adalah Gasoline, LCO (light cycle oil) dan LPG.

Proses FCC adalah reaksi hydrocarbon antara crude oil (RBDPO) dengan catalyst, berdasarkan The Geldart Classification of Particles katalist pada FCC di golongkan pada group A dan Region A', Miyauchi menggolongkan katalis berdasarkan group A’ dengan properties diameter 50-70 Micron. The proper selection of catalyst is very important to successful residue cracking operations. The importance of magnifies as the percentage of residual oil increases in the feedstock. Several properties of the catalyst should be examined for a particular feed. The properties are, Zeolite content, Micro-activity, Rare earths content, Unit cell size, Coke selectivity, Particle size distribution, Bulk density, Thermal stability, Surface area, Pore volume and pore distribution (strippability), Attrition resistance, Metals resistance, Gasoline octane properties. Regenerator dan riser adalah peralatan yang menentukan hasil product dari FCC sehingga pada paper ini menjelaskan transport katalis dari regenerator ke riser.

Untuk mempelajari fenomena katalis pada FCC menggunakan hydrodynamics melalui pendekatan Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), pada pendekatan simulasi gas dan particle terdapat beberapa jenis metode yaitu, Eleruain, MPPIC, DEM. Setiap jenis metode memiliki karakteristik masing pada penyelesain masalah gas-particle, pada MPPIC adalah pendekatan dengan parcel in cell di mana solids model tracks the position and trajectory of computational parcels, statistical groups of particles that share the same physical characteristics (e.g. diameter and density). In the present formulation, different diameter particles of the same material must be defined as separate solid phases, each with its own statistical classification, pada paper ini mengnakan CFDSOFT sebagai device untuk menghitung fenomena katalist pada FCC.

The multiphase particle-in-cell (MP-PIC) numerical method for predicting dense gas-solids flow. The MP-PIC method is a hybrid method such as IBM method, where the gas-phase is treated as a continuum in the Eulerian reference frame and the solids are modeled in the Lagrangian reference frame by tracking computational particles. The MPPIC is a derivative of the Particle-in-Cell (PIC) method for multiphase flows and the method employs a fixed Eulerian grid and Lagrangian parcels are used to transport mass, momentum, and energy through this grid in a way that preserves the identities of the different materials associated with the particles. The main distinction with traditional Eulerian-Lagrangian methods is that the interactions between the particles are calculated on the Eulerian grid. The Eulerian-Lagrangian method and the multiphase particle in cell (MPPIC) method have been used in this study. The model of the MPPIC is a Model Collision in CFDSOF, first of all, PIC models are derived from a Liouville equation describing the time evolution of a particle distribution function.
