Abstract: The invention includes an additive for maximizing production of olefins. The additive comprises a ZSM-5 molecular sieve, at least one inorganic oxide, and phosphorus oxide. The ZSM-5 molecular sieve has iron in the framework, and the additive comprises at least 0.5 weight percent iron, as measured as iron oxide, in the molecular sieve framework. The additive is useful for maximizing production of olefins in a FCC process.

Abstract: The invention includes a fluid catalytic cracking process that comprises reacting a hydrocarbon feedstock under catalytic cracking conditions in the presence of a FCC catalyst and an additive, wherein the additive comprises a ZSM-5 molecular sieve having iron in the framework, wherein the process increases production of propylene compared to a process without using the additive. The invention also includes an additive for maximizing production of olefins, which comprises a ZSM-5 molecular sieve having iron in the framework.
