ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for improving the stripping of hydrocarbons from catalyst particles in a fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) unit. A stripper vessel is located directly adjacent the exhaust barrel of a separator and immediately begins stripping hydrocarbon from catalyst particles. The stripper is sealed at the catalyst exit by a catalyst seal pot, with the drain sized so as to permit only a portion of catalyst flow to pass therethrough, with the remainder catalyst overflowing the seal pot. The location of the stripper adjacent the separator exhaust and the provision of a catalyst seal pot, in other embodiments, can be combined either separately or together with a short contact time (SCT) stripper and/or a catalyst particle deflector in order to reduce the "residence" time of hydrocarbons with catalyst particles.
