Abstract
Prevention of detrimental effect of metals such as nickel, vanadium and iron on the activity of a cracking catalyst when used in a cracking process having essentially no hydrogen added thereto is achieved by using in the cracking process novel cracking catalyst having less than 40 weight percent zeolite content and including antimony metal or a compound of antimony prior to subjecting the cracking catalyst to hydrocarbon cracking conditions.
Claims5
A cracking catalyst composition consisting essentially of an unused catalytic cracking component useful for cracking of hydrocarbons in the absence of added hydrogen, said component having less than about 40 wt. % zeolite content and antimony in a concentration of about 0.005 to about 5 weight percent calculated as the elemental antimony and based on said unused catalytic cracking component and wherein said antimony is derived from antimony tris(O,O-dihydrocarbyldithiophosphate).
