Study on the Correlation between Mass Transfer Performance and Pore Structure and Acidity of FCC Catalysts
In order to study the correlation between the mass transfer performance of fluid catalytic cracking(FCC)catalysts and their pore structure and acidity,three semi synthetic FCC catalyst samples(CAT1,CAT2,CAT3)with different pore structure and acidity were prepared.Naphthalene,phenanthrene and acridine were selected as probe molecules to test the adsorption penetration performance of the guest molecules on the catalysts and to investigate their mass transfer performance.The ability of acid center conversion on catalysts was visualized and analyzed using super-resolution imaging technology.The results show that effective discrimination of the differential adsorption behavior of FCC catalysts for macromolecules can be achieved by selecting suitable probe molecules.The mass transfer performance of macromolecules on FCC catalysts depends on the pore structure and surface acidity of the catalysts.The use of novel macroporous matrix materials optimizes the mass transfer performance of FCC catalysts and enhances the acid on Y molecular sieves in FCC catalysts centers in FCC catalysts.The work can provide an effective solution for studying the mass transfer structure-activity relationship of FCC catalysts,and also provide theoretical guidance for the design of efficient FCC catalysts.
