Catalytic cracking of heavy hydrocarbons on modified natural zeolite of the Shankanai deposit (Kazakhstan) with heteropoly acids

catalytic cracking of heavy hydrocarbons on modified natural
zeolite of the Shankanai deposit (Kazakhstan) with heteropoly
acids. The leading methodological approach in this research work is
a combination of a systematic analysis of the main aspects of
performing catalytic cracking of heavy hydrocarbons with a
practical study of the features of the functioning of the Shankanai
deposit for obtaining and further practical use of modified natural
zeolite and involving scientific experiments to determine the
prospects for performing this kind of modifications, for the
subsequent use of these zeolites in the processes of catalytic
cracking of heavy hydrocarbons. The results obtained in this
scientific study are clear evidence of the fact that more light oil
fractions are obtained as a result of the catalytic cracking process
using modified natural zeolites as a catalyst than as a result of
thermal cracking under other similar initial conditions. The results
obtained in this research work and the conclusions formulated on
their basis are of significant practical importance from the
standpoint of the prospects for the development of the Shankanai
deposit and the use of the zeolite extracted from it after its
modification in the processes of catalytic cracking of heavy
hydrocarbons.
