Fluid Catalytic Cracking V: Volume 134 (Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis") <134>

Spectroscopic techniques continue to be essential in the understanding of catalyst performance. The chapters in this book describe the use of 27Al, 29Si and 13C NMR to study variation in FCC acidity during aging and coke deposition. In addition, several chapters covers the modeling of FCC deactivation, and contact times on FCC performance.
