Abstract

Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) processes are described, the processes utilizing one or more boron oxide components. Also described are FCC compositions and methods of manufacture. One or more boron oxide components on FCC compatible inorganic particles are added to a FCC unit to crack hydrocarbon feeds, resulting in lower hydrogen and coke yields.
