Abstract
An easy method to estimate rate constants in complex kinetic models is proposed. This method reduces the number of parameters to be estimated simultaneously. A 5-lump kinetic model for the catalytic cracking process was selected in order to apply the proposed methodology. Experimental data obtained in a MAT using three gas oils and a commercial equilibrium catalyst unit were used to evaluate the rate constants.
