Compositions comprising a component containing (i) an acidic oxide support, (ii) an alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal or mixtures thereof, (iii) a transition metal oxide having oxygen storage capability, and (iv) palladium promote CO combustion in FCC processes while minimizing the formation of NO. The acidic oxide support preferably contains silica alumina. Ceria is the preferred oxygen storage oxide.

Reduced NOx combustion promoter for use in FCC processes

Compositions comprising a component containing (i) an acidic oxide support, (ii) an alkali metal and/or alkaline earth metal or mixtures thereof, (iii) a transition metal oxide having oxygen storage capability, and (iv) a transition metal selected from Groups Ib and/or IIb of the Periodic Table provide NO control performance in FCC processes. The acidic oxide support preferably contains silica alumina. Ceria is the preferred oxygen storage oxide. Cu and Ag are preferred Group I/IIb transition metals. The compositions are especially useful in the cracking of hydrocarbon feedstocks having above average nitrogen content.
