FCC Main Fractionator

FCC Main Fractionator

Precision Fractionation. Maximum Recovery. High-Performance Operation.

At VSBP Process Engineering & Equipment Mart Pvt Ltd, we deliver advanced design and engineering for FCC Main Fractionators, the core separation unit of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking system.

Our focus is on efficient recovery of valuable products, operational stability, and long equipment life under high-temperature, high-fouling conditions. With a deep understanding of FCC process dynamics, we support greenfield projects, revamps, and performance optimization initiatives across refineries worldwide.

What is an FCC Main Fractionator?

The FCC Main Fractionator receives high-temperature cracked vapors from the reactor and separates them into multiple product streams, typically:

• Overhead Gasoline (Light & Heavy Naphtha)
• Light Cycle Oil (LCO)
• Heavy Cycle Oil (HCO)
• Slurry Oil / Clarified Oil (CLO)

Efficient operation ensures high yields of valuable products while managing pressure, temperature, and fouling challenges.
