  • FCC process using mesoporous catalyst
    Publication number: 20090139900
    Abstract: This invention relates to a FCC process using a mesoporous catalytic cracking catalyst. The mesoporous fluidized catalytic cracking catalyst is selective for minimizing the production of coke and light gas. The catalyst comprises at least one amorphous, porous matrix, each matrix having pores ranging in diameter from about 1 ? to about 10 ? and pores ranging in diameter from about 40 ? to about 500 ?, wherein in the pore range from 50 ? to 250 ?, there is a single maximum in differential pore volume distribution over the 50 ? to 250 ? range.
