fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (fcc) compositions, method for cracking a hydrocarbon feed and method of manufacturing a fluid catalytic cracking catalyst (fcc) composition, fluid catalytic cracking (fcc) compositions are described, methods of manufacture and use . fcc catalyst compositions comprise particles containing a non-zeolitic component and one or more boron oxide components. in embodiments, the fcc catalyst composition contains a zeolite component and, optionally, a rare earth component and a transition alumina. fcc catalyst compositions can comprise a first particle type containing one or more boron oxide components and a first matrix component, mixed with a second particle type, containing a second matrix component and a zeolite. fcc catalyst compositions can be used to crack hydrocarbon feeds, particularly resid feeds containing high v and ni, resulting in lower hydrogen and coke yields. |
