The HCAT Technology requires only a small capital investment and its dosage rate to a reactor can be adjusted to match unit operations and product requirements. The HCAT Technology allows conventional ebullated-bed upgrading units to:
Control product sediment and fouling Increase residue conversion Increase residue throughput Increase distillate yields Use lower-cost, lower-quality “opportunity” feedstocks Improve unit on-stream time and reliability Improve product properties
