ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
There is disclosed a process for cracking a metal-containing feed in the presence of a fluid cracking catalyst composition contacting said feed at catalytic cracking conditions with a catalyst composition comprising a zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate, sepiolite and matrix material, characterized in that the sepiolite is present in non-dispersed form.
Description

BACKGROUND OF THR INVENTION
The present invention relates to a process for cracking metal-containing feeds in the presence of a fluid cracking catalyst composition comprising a zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate, sepiolite and a matrix material. A catalyst composition of the type indicated above is disclosed in U.S.
Patent No. 4,266,672, wherein it is stated that the presence of the sepiolite permits obtaining a catalyst which not only providesl ¦lexcellent cracking, but also outstandingly good demetallization, I
10 ¦~particularly of heavy feeds such as petroleum residua.
Sepiolite is a mineral which is often in the form of rods of lath-shaped or fibrous, hydrated magnesium silicate ¦!(Mg2Si3O82M2o). A description of sepiolite is found in the books Clay Mineralogy, R.E. Grim, McGraw-Hill (2nd Ed 1968), and The Electron-Optical Investigation of Clays, J.A. Gard, Edl, published by Mineralogical Society (1971). The sepiolite usually occurs in the form of bundles of generally parallelly orien~ed rods. In the, above-mentioned patent it is stated that in order to make the sepiolite suitable for use in the cracking catalyst, the mineral must be broken up so that the sepiolite rods are disconnected.
Each sepiolite rod should therefore be freely movable with respect to other rods. Dispersal or fibrillation of the rods can be accomplished by intensive grinding, kneading and the like. These l treatments are, of course, time consuming and costly.

cracking catalysts. None of these disclosures express any preference to the use of sepiolite, let alone mention that sepiolite-containing cracking catalysts have an excellent I demetallizing effect and resistance to metals and after l, regeneration still display outstanding cracking activity.
As zeolite crystalline aluminosilicate may be used all , molecular sieves commonly employed for cracking catalysts. It is ,ll preferred that use should be made of synthetic crystalline aluminosilicates having a pore diameter in the range of 3 to 15 angstroms.

Ii To ensure proper catalyst activity, the cations of the 15 ', zeolites, which are often prepared in the sodium form, need to be exchanged. For this ion exchange use is generally made of solutions containing rare earth metal ions and/or ammonium or il hydrogen ions.

oxides) may be incorporated into the catalyst composition.
Moreover, the catalyst composition may contain usual amounts of one or more passivators such as antimony, tin, and the like, whichj ¦ particularly serve to prevent excessive formation of hydrogen during the cracking process.
To reduce SOx emission and to promote the conversion of CO/CO2, about 0.05 to about 1000 ppm of an oxidation I promoting metal or metal compound may be incorporated into the present composition. Suitable for that purpose are noble metals or compounds thereof of group VIII of the periodic system, such as Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh, Os and Ru. Also suitable to that end are rare earth metals or compounds thereof. Examples of suitable oxidationi i promoters also include Cr and Cu, and compounds thereof. It is 15 ¦ preferred that use should be made of about 0.1 to about 100 ppm, more particularly about 0.1 to about 50 ppm, of a noble metal of ~group VIII~ Most preference is given to the incorporation into the catalyst of about 0.1 to about 10 ppm of platinum or palladium. These metals may be incorporated in the catalyst in a known manner, for instance by impregnation with a corresponding salt solution. For SOx adsorption and CO/CO2 conversion, if desired, the presence of the oxidation promoter is indispensable.

Alternatively, the various components
- 4 -.'. I
1,.:11~1 -may be added to a matrix material in the form of a sol. This sol bonding agent can be formed into a gel before or during spray drying. The latter procedure is to be preferred. Thus, by i c~mbining non-dispersed sepiolite with a bonding agent which was non-gelled prior to spray drying it is possible to obtain catalystj tl compositions having a relatively high density. Thus, apparent ¦densities higher than about 0.5 g/ml, preferably higher than about 0.60 9/1 are simple to realize~
~ A suitable catalyst composition according to the present ,invention comprises about 5 to about 50, preferably about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of a zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate and about 5 to about 70, pEeferably about 20 to ~about 50 percent by weight of non-dispersed sepiolite, which two ~Icomponents are embedded in about 10 to about 90 percent by weight 15 'lof one and the same matrix material. It is preferred that the aluminosilicate should consist of a type Y zeolite exchanged for rare earth metal ions and/or ammonium or hydrogen ions. As matrix¦
j(binder) material there is preferably used a silica, I
¦silica-alumina or alumina formed into a gel by spray drying the total compositions. Particularly in uses requiring a reduction of¦
Sx emission it is preferred that into the catalyst composition there should be incorporated about 0.1 to about 10 ppm of platinum.
ll Although the previously described catalyst composition 25 !1, of the present invention appears to provide good cracking and a ¦¦satisfactory demetallization and metal resistance, it has been found that at high regeneration temperatures (i.e. above 750C) i the crystallinity of the aluminosiiicate is somewhat affected by the sepiolite. As a result, the activity of t~e regenerated catalyst composition will decrease. This phenomenon is probably ~ 2~
related to migration to the zeolite of the magnesium present in sepiolite. The problem may to some extent be solved by subjecting the sepiolite to an ion exchange with NH4+ or H+-containing solutions, before or after it is embedded in matrix material.
¦ Thus more than about 10~, preferably more than about 25%, most ¦ preferably more than about 50% of the magnesium originally present may be exchanged for the ions that do not adversely affect the l zeolite.
! To prevent the adverse effects of the above-mentioned 10 ¦ migration, however, preference is given to using as the catalyst i composition a physical mixture of:
i a. catalytically active particles comprising a zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate and matrix material, and ¦ b. catalytically less active particles comprising ; 15 j non-dispersed sepiollte and matrix material.
By such physical separation of the two components the i sepiolite is prevented from having any adverse effect on the crystallinity of the aluminosilicate-- The two types of particles of different catalytic activity may be intermixed before they are charged into the reactor. Alternatively, the catalytically less active particles may be added separately to catalysts already present in the reactor.
The final mixture generally consists of about 10 to about 90, preferably about 30 to about 70 percent by weight of said catalytically active particles and about 90 to about 10, preferably about 70 to about 30 percent by weight of said catalytically less active particles. The composition of the total mixture is generally between the aforementioned limits.
12~L~4~ 1 Very suitable is a physical mixture in which:
a. the catalytically active particles contain about 10 to about 80, preferably about 20 to about 50 percent ¦
by weight of zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate, 1 5 about 5 to about 60, preferably about 20 to about 50 j percent by weight of clay and about 5 to about 85, preferably about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of Il silica, silica-alumina or alumina, and ¦ b. the catalytically less active particles contain about¦
lo ! lo to about 80, preferably about Z0 to about 60 I ¦ percent by weight of noh-dispersed sepiolite, and ¦ about 10 to about 90, preferably about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of silica or silica-alumina and, optionally, about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of¦
lS clay.
i Also in such a mixture the silica, silica-alumina or alumina in the catalytically active and~or less active particles preferably consists of silica, silica-alumina or alumina formed into a gel by~
spray drying the respective particles. A further advantage to the present mixtures is that their composition can be readily adapted to the use envisaged.
Thus, it is possible to compose mixtures in which the catalytically active particles are microporous (i.e. more than 40%
of their pore volume in pores having a diameter smaller than lS0 Angstroms) and the catalytically less active particles are macroporous (i.e. more than 40~ of their pore volume in pores havng a diameter greater than 150 Angstroms).
If augmentation of the octane number of petrol fractions~
is envisaged, then alumina particles ~aluminium hydrates and/or oxides) may be incorporated into the catalytically active and/or less active partlcles in an amount of up to in all aùout 50, - 7 - ~ ~
. l , ~ .
,, Il ~
12~4~1 -preferably about ~5, more preferably about 1 to about 15 percent by weight of alumina particles.
It is also possible for the two different types of il particles to have different diameters. For instance, the l' catalytically active particles may have a diameter of about 80 to about 125 microns and the catalytically less active particles a ~I diameter of about 30 to about 75 microns.
Moreover, into one or more the two components of the I mixture a noble metal of group VIII of the periodic system may be ¦
10 !, incorporated in à concentration of about 0.1 to about 100 ppm, preferably about 0.1 to about 50 ppm, calculated on the weight of the total mixture. It is again preferred then that the platinum ~I should be used in an amount of about 0.1 to about 10 ppm.
I~ Instead of bringing the feed into contact with a I physical mixture of the above-mentioned particles it may first be contacted with the catalytically less active and subsequently with ~I the catalytically active particles~
'~ The present catalyst composition is suitable for use in ¦ a conventional process f~r cracking metal-containing feeds.
Catalytic cracking is normally carried out by contacting the feed with the catalyst composition at catalytic cracking conditions ¦ such as at a temperature of about 375 to about 650~, more ¦ particularly about 460 to about 560C. The pressure applied il is generally in the range from about atmospheric to about 7 25 ¦ atmospheres, more particularly from about 1 to about 3 ,¦ atmospheres. Regeneration with air is generally carried out at il about 540 to about 825C, more particularly, about 750 to about 800C~
The present catalytic composition may be applied in the cracking of metal-containing feeds. The composition is particularly suitable for feeds having a final boiling point higher than about 480C, a density greater than about 900kg/m3 , a metal content (Ni and V) of more than about 1 ppm and a Conradson carbon of more than about 1~. The present catalyst composition is preferably applied to heavier feeds, such as residua that include a substantial concentration of metals and/or ¦
asphaltenes.
A process in which the feed is first contacted with the ¦¦catalytically less active sepiolite-containing particles and 10 ~ subsequently with the catalytically active sepiolite-containing particles is to be preferred particularly in the case of very heavy residual feeds. Thus the feed is demetallized before the actual cracking process.
¦Examples The catalyst compositions mentioned in the Table are obtained by adding the various components to an acid silica-alumina sol, which total composition is fed through a colloid mill and gelled by spray dryingO Acco-dingly, the catalytically active and less active particles of the physical mixture, mentioned in this Table, are prepared.
Catalyst II is a control composition containing dispersed sepiolite. For dispersion a suspension of sepiolite was pulverized to a very high degree in a Dynamill before adding the sepiolite to the other components.
The catalysts were tested for metal resistance, activity, and selectivity, use being made of the MR and MAT test methods as described in the book (pp. FCC/80-84~ on the Ketjen symposium at Amsterdam (The Netherlands) from 25-30 May 1982. The¦
K-value (reaction rate constant~ and the conversion are parameters for the activity ~f the catalyst. The results are listed in the _g_ ~. . , .
~2~
accompanying Table. The present catalyst shows a better metal resistance and after steaming at 795C, a better conversion than the corresponding catalyst containing a dispersed sepiolite.

! To prevent the adverse effects of the above-mentioned 10 ¦ migration, however, preference is given to using as the catalyst i composition a physical mixture of:
i a. catalytically active particles comprising a zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate and matrix material, and ¦ b. catalytically less active particles comprising ; 15 j non-dispersed sepiollte and matrix material.
By such physical separation of the two components the i sepiolite is prevented from having any adverse effect on the crystallinity of the aluminosilicate-- The two types of particles of different catalytic activity may be intermixed before they are charged into the reactor. Alternatively, the catalytically less active particles may be added separately to catalysts already present in the reactor.
The final mixture generally consists of about 10 to about 90, preferably about 30 to about 70 percent by weight of said catalytically active particles and about 90 to about 10, preferably about 70 to about 30 percent by weight of said catalytically less active particles. The composition of the total mixture is generally between the aforementioned limits.
12~L~4~ 1 Very suitable is a physical mixture in which:
a. the catalytically active particles contain about 10 to about 80, preferably about 20 to about 50 percent ¦
by weight of zeolitic, crystalline aluminosilicate, 1 5 about 5 to about 60, preferably about 20 to about 50 j percent by weight of clay and about 5 to about 85, preferably about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of Il silica, silica-alumina or alumina, and ¦ b. the catalytically less active particles contain about¦
lo ! lo to about 80, preferably about Z0 to about 60 I ¦ percent by weight of noh-dispersed sepiolite, and ¦ about 10 to about 90, preferably about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of silica or silica-alumina and, optionally, about 10 to about 30 percent by weight of¦
lS clay.
i Also in such a mixture the silica, silica-alumina or alumina in the catalytically active and~or less active particles preferably consists of silica, silica-alumina or alumina formed into a gel by~
spray drying the respective particles. A further advantage to the present mixtures is that their composition can be readily adapted to the use envisaged.
Thus, it is possible to compose mixtures in which the catalytically active particles are microporous (i.e. more than 40%
of their pore volume in pores having a diameter smaller than lS0 Angstroms) and the catalytically less active particles are macroporous (i.e. more than 40~ of their pore volume in pores havng a diameter greater than 150 Angstroms).
If augmentation of the octane number of petrol fractions~
is envisaged, then alumina particles ~aluminium hydrates and/or oxides) may be incorporated into the catalytically active and/or less active partlcles in an amount of up to in all aùout 50, - 7 - ~ ~
. l , ~ .
,, Il ~
12~4~1 -preferably about ~5, more preferably about 1 to about 15 percent by weight of alumina particles.
It is also possible for the two different types of il particles to have different diameters. For instance, the l' catalytically active particles may have a diameter of about 80 to about 125 microns and the catalytically less active particles a ~I diameter of about 30 to about 75 microns.
Moreover, into one or more the two components of the I mixture a noble metal of group VIII of the periodic system may be ¦
10 !, incorporated in à concentration of about 0.1 to about 100 ppm, preferably about 0.1 to about 50 ppm, calculated on the weight of the total mixture. It is again preferred then that the platinum ~I should be used in an amount of about 0.1 to about 10 ppm.
I~ Instead of bringing the feed into contact with a I physical mixture of the above-mentioned particles it may first be contacted with the catalytically less active and subsequently with ~I the catalytically active particles~
'~ The present catalyst composition is suitable for use in ¦ a conventional process f~r cracking metal-containing feeds.
Catalytic cracking is normally carried out by contacting the feed with the catalyst composition at catalytic cracking conditions ¦ such as at a temperature of about 375 to about 650~, more ¦ particularly about 460 to about 560C. The pressure applied il is generally in the range from about atmospheric to about 7 25 ¦ atmospheres, more particularly from about 1 to about 3 ,¦ atmospheres. Regeneration with air is generally carried out at il about 540 to about 825C, more particularly, about 750 to about 800C~
The present catalytic composition may be applied in the cracking of metal-containing feeds. The composition is particularly suitable for feeds having a final boiling point higher than about 480C, a density greater than about 900kg/m3 , a metal content (Ni and V) of more than about 1 ppm and a Conradson carbon of more than about 1~. The present catalyst composition is preferably applied to heavier feeds, such as residua that include a substantial concentration of metals and/or ¦
asphaltenes.
A process in which the feed is first contacted with the ¦¦catalytically less active sepiolite-containing particles and 10 ~ subsequently with the catalytically active sepiolite-containing particles is to be preferred particularly in the case of very heavy residual feeds. Thus the feed is demetallized before the actual cracking process.
¦Examples The catalyst compositions mentioned in the Table are obtained by adding the various components to an acid silica-alumina sol, which total composition is fed through a colloid mill and gelled by spray dryingO Acco-dingly, the catalytically active and less active particles of the physical mixture, mentioned in this Table, are prepared.
Catalyst II is a control composition containing dispersed sepiolite. For dispersion a suspension of sepiolite was pulverized to a very high degree in a Dynamill before adding the sepiolite to the other components.
The catalysts were tested for metal resistance, activity, and selectivity, use being made of the MR and MAT test methods as described in the book (pp. FCC/80-84~ on the Ketjen symposium at Amsterdam (The Netherlands) from 25-30 May 1982. The¦
K-value (reaction rate constant~ and the conversion are parameters for the activity ~f the catalyst. The results are listed in the _g_ ~. . , .
~2~
accompanying Table. The present catalyst shows a better metal resistance and after steaming at 795C, a better conversion than the corresponding catalyst containing a dispersed sepiolite.
