Patent ID: 8318101

Claim:
Oil-derived hydrocarbon conversion system comprising: a catalytic cracking baffle having catalyser particles in fluidized phase disposed therein, wherein coke is deposited on the catalyser particles; a reduction reactor having catalyser particles with coke deposited thereon in a circulating fluidized bed, wherein the reduction reactor is supplied with fuel, oxidized oxygen support, and the catalyser particles deposited with coke for burning the fuel, coke, and oxygen from the oxygen support to provide regenerated catalyser particles and reduced oxygen support, a first separator cyclone coupled to an exit of the reduction reactor, adapted to separate the solid catalyzer particles and reduced oxygen support from gas exiting the reduction reactor; an oxidization reactor adapted to receive reduced oxygen support and oxidize them; and a granulometric sorter disposed between an outlet of the first separation cyclone and the catalytic cracking baffle that receives a mixture of the regenerated catalyser particles and the reduced oxygen support particles and separates them, wherein the regenerated catalyser particles are provided to the catalytic cracking baffle and the reduced oxygen support is provided to the oxidization reactor.
