This technology can make full use of the advantages of riser regenerator, such as high cokeburning efficiency and low residual carbon, and at the same time overcome its disadvantages, such as difficulty in starting combustion. The average particles concentration on the cross section of the system was studied on a large scale cold model experimental set-up.
