The present disclosure relates to an FCC catalyst composition and a process for preparing the same. In a first aspect, there is provided an FCC catalyst composition comprising 25 to 45 wt % Y-type zeolite, 20 to 40 wt % silicon oxide, 5 to 25 wt % alumina, 5 to 35 wt % of at least one clay and 0.5 to 3 wt % of at least one rare earth oxide. The weight % of each of the component is with respect to the total weight of the composition. The FCC catalyst composition has an average particle size in the range of 45-120μ. In a second aspect, there is provided a process for preparing the FCC catalyst composition, which uses ball milled pseudoboehmite having an average particle size in the range of 1 to 8 micron and the whole process is carried out at a pH value in the range of 6 to 7.

FCC catalyst composition and a process for its preparation

The present disclosure relates to an FCC catalyst additive for cracking of petroleum feedstock and a process for its preparation. The FCC catalyst additive of the present disclosure comprises at least one zeolite, at least one clay, at least one binder, phosphorous in the form of PO, and at least one Group IVB metal compound. The FCC catalyst additive of the present disclosure is hydrothermally stable and has improved matrix surface area even after various hydrothermal treatments. The FCC catalyst additive of the present disclosure can be used in combination with the conventional FCC catalyst for catalytic cracking to selectively enhance the propylene and LPG yields.
