Abstract

Abstract A cracking catalyst for promoting the oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide during regeneration of the catalyst by the burning of coke therefrom, which comprises a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite, an inorganic porous oxide matrix material and a CO oxidation promoter, such as a Group VIII metal or compound thereof. The catalyst is preferably prepared by first supporting the CO oxidation promoter on an inorganic porous oxide base, such as alumina, and thereafter embedding the supported CO oxidation promoter and a crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite, such as rare earth metal exchanged Y-type zeolite, in an inorganic porous oxide matrix material, such as silica-alumina.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 86 words
A hydrocarbon conversion catalyst which comprises particles of crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite and particles of a porous oxide support containing a CO oxidation promoter, which particles are each embedded in a porous oxide matrix to produce a catalyst composite thereof containing 2 to 20 wt. % of the zeolite and 2 to 100 ppm of a CO oxidation promoter comprising a metal or a compound of a metal selected from Periods 5 and 6 of Group VIII of the Periodic Table, rhenium, chromium, manganese and combinations thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 86 words
A hydrocarbon conversion catalyst which comprises particles of crystalline aluminosilicate zeolite and particles of a porous oxide support containing a CO oxidation promoter, which particles are each embedded in a porous oxide matrix to produce a catalyst composite thereof containing 2 to 20 wt. % of the zeolite and 2 to 100 ppm of a CO oxidation promoter comprising a metal or a compound of a metal selected from Periods 5 and 6 of Group VIII of the Periodic Table, rhenium, chromium, manganese and combinations thereof.
