Unit Function
Hydrocracker is a process that uses heat, pressure anda catalyst to break larger hydrocarbon molecules into
smaller, lighter molecules and also converts heaviest
and least desirable petroleum cuts , into marketable
products.

Metals Removal
Almost all the metals removal occurs at the top bed of the
first reactor.
Metals are retained on the catalyst by a combination of
adsorption and chemical reaction.
The catalyst has a certain maximum tolerance for retainingmetals.

Cracking chemistry
Extensive catalytic cracking followed by hydrogenation to
form iso paraffins are the primary reactions. The rate of hydrocracking increases with the molecular weight of the parrafins.

Catalyst-What Is It?
Catalyst is a substance that changes the rate of a reaction
without itself being changed
Enables a reaction to proceeded a faster rate.
Can selectively favor certain reaction mechanisms over others

Factors Affecting REAC
Performance
Material
Carbon steel which is easily affected by corrosion OR alloy
Sulfur & Nitrogen Concentration in Feed
High concentration of S & N2 in feed leading to excess NH4HS
production which accelerate the corrosion-erosion. NH4HSshould be < 8 % wt in sour water
