Abstract
Apparatus for catalytic cracking of a selected portion of a hydrocarbon feedstock comprising a riser reactor and a catalyst regenerator, a regenerated catalyst cooler, and an absorber. Regenerated catalyst from the catalyst regenerator is conducted through the catalyst cooler into the absorber where it adsorbs hydrocarbon cracking feedstock and then returned to the riser reactor. A duct carries part of the hot regenerated catalyst from the catalyst regenerator directly to the riser reactor to supply heat for cracking the hydrocarbon feedstock.
