Abstract
A burner vessel or regenerator vessel is disclosed which has an elliptical bottom head which supports a particulate refractory fill which in turn supports and stabilizes an air distributor inlet manifold. The manifold is supported at radially arranged distribution pipes so that the main air header floats freely for expansion and contraction. A fluidized bed of particulate is combusted above the refractory fill layer. Other appropriate operation apparatus for the vessel are also disclosed. The burner vessel is used in a fluid coker apparatus and the regenerator vessel is used in a fluid catalytic cracking unit.
