Abstract
Emission of noxious nitrogen oxides with the flue gas from the regenerator of a fluid catalytic cracking plant are reduced by incorporating into the circulating inventory of cracking catalyst separate additive particles that contain a copper-loaded zeolite. A particularly effective additive is provided by ion-exchanging ZSM-5 zeolite with cupric ion. With such preferred additive, CO emissions also are reduced, and the recovered gasoline has enhanced octane number.
