Abstract:
The present invention relates to a catalyst product for cracking of heavy hydrocarbon feed stocks predominantly into light olefins and processes for preparing the catalyst. More specifically the present invention relates to a process of preparing a Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) catalyst additive composition. The FCC catalyst additive composition of the present invention is a LPG selective catalyst particles comprising a medium pore size zeolite bound by a clay-phosphate-silica-alumina binder with lowered soluble phosphate content. The catalyst of the present invention exhibits improved selectivity towards high value components like propylene and gasoline and suppressing low value components like dry gas and bottoms. The preparation comprises washing an FCC catalyst additive comprising a zeolite and phosphate with demineralised water for 30 min to 2 h to remove water soluble phosphate before drying and calcining, and subsequent ion exchange with a bivalent metal ion selected from IUPAC groups 2 and 11, filtering, drying and calcining.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to an additive and a catalyst composition for a catalytic cracking process of vacuum gas oil for preparing cracked run naphtha having reduced liquid olefin content, and increased propylene and butylene yields in the LPG fraction. The process makes use of a catalyst composition which is a mixture of an FCC equilibrated catalyst and an additive comprising a zeolite, phosphorus and a combination of metal promoters. The process is successful in achieving high propylene and butylene yields in the LPG fraction along with a lower liquid olefin content and increased aromatic content with increase in RON unit in the resultant cracked run naphtha, as compared to that achieved using an FCC equilibrated catalyst alone.
Abstract:
The hydroisomerization of a paraffinic hydrocarbon feedstock obtained from renewable sources is effectively achieved by passing the feedstock in the presence of hydrogen over a hydroisomerization catalyst comprising a crystalline metal silicate molecular sieve, in which a portion of the crystalline framework contains iron.
