Abstract:In
a previous paper, we introduced a novel steam deactivation method,
which could in principle reproduce many features of refinery FCC equilibrium
catalysts. However, nonideal zeolite decay kinetics had prevented
full realization of the potential of the method. Further analysis
now shows those kinetic deviations were due to a ubiquitous 10–20%
of metastable framework Si in zeolite Y, which is already familiar
via the zeolite ultrastabilization process. Unexpectedly high framework
Si collapse rates have also be… Show more
Transformations of an industrial zeolite-based fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst and its coke deposits during regeneration following FCC reactions of a representative refinery stream are investigated.
