The purpose of the project is to research on the synthesis and development of zeolite catalysts with improved properties for residue Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) applications. Current zeolite catalysts suffer from low stability and diffusion limitations and mass transfer issues of bulky molecules into the active sites. Catalysts with enhanced stability and mass transfer to the active sites will be prepared and tested to evaluate their activity, selectivity, and stability in ADNOC Refining’s commercial feed under realistic conditions.
