Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 106 words
A process comprising contacting a zeolite modified cracking catalyst having deposited thereon at least 3,000 parts per million vanadium equivalents of contaminants selected from the group consisting of nickel, vanadium and iron with a treating agent compound represented by the formula (RX 2 PX 2 ) 3 Al wherein each X is independently selected from the group consisting of oxygen and sulfur and at least one X is sulfur, and wherein R is a hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms so as to deposit an amount of treating agent on said cracking catalyst sufficient to reduce the deleterious effects of said contaminants.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 106 words
A process comprising contacting a zeolite modified cracking catalyst having deposited thereon at least 3,000 parts per million vanadium equivalents of contaminants selected from the group consisting of nickel, vanadium and iron with a treating agent compound represented by the formula (RX 2 PX 2 ) 3 Al wherein each X is independently selected from the group consisting of oxygen and sulfur and at least one X is sulfur, and wherein R is a hydrocarbyl group having from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms so as to deposit an amount of treating agent on said cracking catalyst sufficient to reduce the deleterious effects of said contaminants.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
A process as in claim 1 wherein the treating agent compound is mixed with a hydrocarbon feedstock and contacted with the cracking catalyst in the cracking zone of a catalytic cracking reactor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 84 words
A process comprising contacting a zeolite modified cracking catalyst having deposited thereon at least 3000 parts per million vanadium equivalents of contaminants selected from the group consisting of nickel, vanadium and iron with a treating agent compound represented by the formula ((RO) 2 PS 2 ) 3 Al wherein R is a hydrocarbyl broup having from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms so as to deposit an amount of treating agent on said cracking catalyst sufficient to reduce the deleterious effects of said contaminants.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 84 words
A process comprising contacting a zeolite modified cracking catalyst having deposited thereon at least 3000 parts per million vanadium equivalents of contaminants selected from the group consisting of nickel, vanadium and iron with a treating agent compound represented by the formula ((RO) 2 PS 2 ) 3 Al wherein R is a hydrocarbyl broup having from 1 to about 20 carbon atoms so as to deposit an amount of treating agent on said cracking catalyst sufficient to reduce the deleterious effects of said contaminants.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 12 words
A process as in claim 3 wherein both R groups are n-propyl.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words
A process as in claim 4 wherein the cracking catalyst has deposited thereon in excess of 10,000 ppm vanadium equivalents of contaminants.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 40 words
A process as in claim 5 wherein the cracking catalyst contains from about 1 to about 60% by total weight of a zeolitic component and has deposited thereon from between about 20,000 to about 50,000 ppm vanadium equivalents of contaminants.
