A bottoms cracking catalyst composition, comprising: about 30 to about 60 wt % alumina; greater than 0 to about 10 wt % of a dopant, measured as the oxide; about 2 to about 20 wt % reactive silica; about 3 to about 20 wt % of a component comprising peptizable boehmite, colloidal silica, aluminum chlorohydrol, or a combination of any two or more thereof, and about 10 to about 50 wt % of kaolin.

Reactive silica-alumina matrix component compositions for bottoms cracking catalysts

A bottoms cracking catalyst composition, comprising: about 30 to about 60 wt % alumina; greater than 0 to about 10 wt % of a dopant, measured as the oxide; about 2 to about 20 wt % reactive silica; about 3 to about 20 wt % of a component comprising peptizable boehmite, colloidal silica, aluminum chlorohydrol, or a combination of any two or more thereof; and about 10 to about 50 wt % of kaolin.

A catalytic additive comprising an intermediate pore zeolite, such as ZSM-5 is treated so as to improve propylene yields when the additive is included in a FCC catalytic inventory by first treating the zeolite with a phosphorus compound to incorporate the phosphorus in the zeolite, and mixing the P-treated zeolite with a matrix component comprising kaolin and another phosphorus-containing compound.

ZSM-5 additive activity enhancement by improved zeolite and phosphorus interaction

Disclosed in certain embodiments are ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres. The ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres may contain substantially no clay or calcined clay material. The ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres may have a ZSM-5 zeolite content of at least 70 wt. %. Disclosed in certain embodiments is a method of forming ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres including treating microspheres with at least one alkali solution.

ZSM-5 catalyst

Disclosed in certain embodiments are ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres. Disclosed in certain embodiments is a method of forming ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres including: 1) shaping a mixture into microspheres where the mixture includes a silica material and of particulates selected from at least one high-density material with an absolute bulk density of at least 0.3 g/cc, ZSM-5 zeolite crystals, and combinations thereof; 2) calcining the microspheres; and 3) reacting and subsequently heating the microspheres with at least one alkali solution to form ZSM-5 zeolite in-situ on the microspheres, where the ZSM-5 zeolite microspheres contain substantially no clay or calcined clay material.

A zeolite-containing fixed bed catalyst is formed by pre-shaping a mixture of a reactive aluminum-containing component and a matrix component into pre-shaped particles, and contacting the pre-shaped particles with a reactive liquid containing a silicate for a sufficient time and temperature to form an in-situ zeolite within the pre-shaped particles. The contacting of the pre-shaped particles and the liquid is achieved such that there is relative movement between the pre-shaped particles and the liquid.

A sulfur reduction catalyst useful to reduce the levels of sulfur in a cracked gasoline product comprises a metal vanadate compound. The metal vanadate compound can be supported on a molecular sieve such as a zeolite in which the metal vanadate compound is primarily located on the exterior surface of the pore structure of the zeolite and on the surface of any matrix material used to bind or support the zeolite.

Catalyst composition for reducing gasoline sulfur content in catalytic cracking process

A process for alkylation of a hydrocarbon compound includes providing a catalyst including a zeolite Y having a crystal size of no more than 100 nm, and reacting an alkylatable hydrocarbon with an alkylating agent in the presence of the catalyst under alkylation reaction conditions to provide a gasoline product having a Research Octane Number of over 99.5.

Hydrocarbon conversion using nanocrystalline zeolite Y

A method for treating zeolite particles to remove organic templating agent therefrom is accomplished by calcining the zeolite particles in a fluidized-bed at a temperature of no more than about 600&#xb0; C. for a period of time sufficient to remove at least about 50% of the organic templating agent.

Method of treating zeolite

A process for the alkylation of paraffins with olefins includes contacting the paraffin with the olefin under alkylation conditions with a zeolite having an AAI number of at least about 1.0. In a preferred process isobutane is alkylated with cis-2-butene to produce a high octane (RON) gasoline product containing trimethylpentane isomers.
