Abstract

An improved Thermal Regenerative Cracking (TRC) apparatus and process includes: (1) an improved low residence time solid-gas separation device and system; and (2) an improved solids feeding device and system; as well as an improved sequential thermal cracking process; an improved solids quench boiler and process; an improved preheat vaporization system; and an improved fuel gas generation system for solids heated. One or more of the improvements may be incorporated in a conventional TRC system.
