Advances in Refining Catalysis

"Catalysts have been very significant developments from the days of using natural clays as catalysts for catalytic cracking to designing and producing catalysts with precise control of their structure, composition, and properties for fluid catalytic cracking (FCC). This literature introduces new advances in catalysts for selected processes such as FCC, hydrotreatment of FCC gasoline, hydroprocessing of vacuum gas oil, alkylation, processing of heavy bottoms of crude oils, hydrogen production, and the roles of catalyst supports
