Fluid Catalytic Cracking Fluid catalytic cracking* (FCC) is the most important conversion process used in petroleum refineries. It is widely used to convert the high-boiling hydrocarbonfractions of petroleum crude oils into more valuable [1][2][3] gasoline‚ olefinic gases and other products. . Cracking of petroleum hydrocarbons for conversion of heavy fractions into lighter fractions was originally done by thermal cracking which has been almost completely replaced by catalytic cracking because

therapeutics‚ for artificial blood that carries oxygen‚ and volume expanders for inert blood. 2. Research into the production of artificial blood is important as‚ when severe trauma occurs‚ a serious danger is that blood volume will be reduced to a point where the remaining red blood cells can no longer oxygenate body tissue‚ which can result in tissue damage or death. Artificial blood solves this by acting as a volume expander‚ making up for the lost quantity of blood. Because real blood has
