Preparation and Cracking Performance of FCC Co-Catalyst for Enhancing Light Oil Production

In this paper,a FCC co-catalyst for enhancing the light oil production was prepared by the sol-gel method,and its effect on the performance of residue cracking catalysts was evaluated in a CCFFB reactor.The test results indicated that the liquid product yield increased obviously,after the surface of FCC equilibrium catalyst was impregnated with the co-catalyst.The yields of dry gas,slurry and coke decreased,while the diesel yield changed slightly.And the crackability of residue was increased; the rate of coke deposition on catalyst surface was decreased,with the thermal cracking reactions inhibited.All these results showed that the co-catalyst could improve the density of acid sites and change the catalyst acidity,which could promote to prolong the catalyst activity by depositing the co-catalyst on the surface of FCC equilibrium catalysts.
