FCC units are found in most refineries worldwide and are used to produce gasoline and diesel from vacuum gas oil (VGO). Dried wood is typically converted to approximately 75% (by weight) liquid with the balance converted to combustible gases and char. There, Ensyn’s RFO is used as a feedstock in Fluid Catalytic Crackers (FCCs).
