High-Efficiency Residue to Chemicals(RTC) Technology Successfully Developed by SINOPEC Research Institute of Petroleum Processing

On September 27,2020 the high-efficiency Residue to Chemicals(RTC)technology developed independently by the SINOPEC Research Institute of Petroleum Processing(RIPP)passed the technical appraisal organized by the SINOPEC Corporation.This technology has grappled with the problem for manufacturing ethylene and propylene from inferior heavy oils.Compared with the domestic and overseas residue catalytic cracking techniques,the RTC technology demonstrates a better ethylene and propylene selectivity and a lower coke yield to assume an internationally leading level.
