Abstract
A process for upgrading a renewable feedstock includes contacting the renewable feedstock with a cracking catalyst, where: the cracking catalyst comprises a ZSM-5 zeolite impregnated with iron, zinc, or both iron and zinc; and the contacting of the renewable feedstock with the cracking catalyst causes at least of portion of the renewable feedstock to undergo cracking reactions to produce a cracked effluent comprising light olefins, light aromatic compounds, or both.
