Fluid Catalytic Cracking and Refinery Advances in Fuel Efficiency
United States, Circa 1948: footage shows a refinery’s fluid catalytic cracking loop: heated gas oil meets fine powder catalyst, rises into a reactor, coke-coated catalyst drops to a regenerator where air burns it clean, then recycles; towering 16-story units dwarf the historic Burton still; lab demos and engine shots link volatility and blending to quick starts, acceleration, power, and mileage.
