Abstract
The thermocatalytic cracking (TCC) process, which can selectively produce light olefins (mostly, ethylene and propylene for the petrochemical industry) and transportation fuels (gasoline and diesel fuel), combines the effects of thermal and catalytic cracking reactions. The TCC catalysts consist mainly of mixed metal oxides supported on a high-surface area – thermally stabilized alumina. The best TCC catalyst formulation includes a co-catalyst, which provides the main catalyst component with active hydrogen species formed from hydrogen and other hydrocarbons, particularly methane, produced mainly by thermal cracking. The interparticular interactions of these hydrogen spilt-over species can occur because these species can be easily transferred from one particle to the other through the newly formed pore connections
