We have used high spatial resolution imaging secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) to differentiate mineralogical phases and to investigate chemical segregations in fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst particles. The oil industry relies on heterogeneous catalysis using these catalysts to convert heavy hydrocarbon fractions into high quality gasoline and fuel oil components. Catalyst performance is strongly influenced by catalyst microstructure and composition, with different chemical reactions occurring at specific types of sites within the particle. The zeolitic portions of the particle, where the majority of the oil conversion occurs, can be clearly distinguished from the surrounding silica-alumina matrix in analytical SIMS images.The University of Chicago scanning ion microprobe (SIM) employed in this study has been described previously. For these analyses, the instrument was operated with a 40 keV, 10 pA Ga+ primary ion probe focused to a 30 nm FWHM spot. Elemental SIMS maps were obtained from 10×10 μm2 areas in times not exceeding 524s.

The article summarized the possible transformations of pyrolysis bio-oil from lignocellulose into 2nd generation biofuels. Although a lot has been published about this topic, so far, none of the published catalytic pro-cesses has found commercial application due to the rapid deactivation of the catalyst. Most researches deal with bio-oil hydrotreatment at severe conditions or its pro-cessing by catalytic cracking to prepare 2nd generation biofuels directly. However, this approach is not commercially applicable due to high consumptions of hydrogen and fast catalyst deactivation. Another way, crude bio-oil co-processing with petroleum fractions in hydrotreatment or FCC units seems to be more promising. The last approach, bio-oil mild hydrotreatment followed by final co-processing with petroleum feedstock using common refining processes (FCC and hydrotreatment) seems to be the most promising way to produce 2nd generation biofuels from pyrolysis bio-oil. Co-processing of bio-oil with petroleum fraction in FCC increases conversion to gasoline and, thus, it could be a preferable process in the USA. Otherwise, co-hydrotreatment of hydrotreated bio-oil with LCO leads not only to the reduction of hydrogen consumption but also to the conversion preferably to diesel. This process seems to be more suitable for Europe. Further research on bio-oils upgrading is still necessary before the commercialization of the bio-oil conversion into biofuels suitable for cars. However, the first commercial bio-refinery that will convert bio-oil into biofuel for marine transport is planned to be built in the Netherlands.

The cracking of cyclo pentene on silica-alumina was studied in a flow system over the temperature range 368 to 505 °C. The analysis of the products was carried out by gas-liquid chromatographic techniques and the design of the apparatus made it possible to measure the pressures of compounds of low molecular weight at a series of points along the catalyst bed. Partial analyses were made of the extremely wide range of products of high molecular weight collected at the end of the reactor for reactions at three different temperatures. The results obtained were sufficiently detailed to provide activation energies for the for­mation of a number of the products and for the decomposition of cyclo pentene and to per­mit the application of thermodynamical calculations to ascertain the source of substances such as cyclo pentane and methyl cyclo pentane. The results of the flow experiments together with a subsidiary experiment on the reactions which occurred to cyclo pentene at 68 °C on the catalyst in a static system indicated that the formation, polymerization and isomerization of the surface complexes to condensed six-membered ring systems must be extremely rapid processes in the temperature range required for the catalytic cracking of cyclo pentene. These processes probably occur through the formation of carbonium ions and consequently the formation of these ions is unlikely to be the slow step in the catalytic cracking of olefins. The rate of the cracking reaction may depend on the rate of decomposition of carbonium ions considerably larger in size than the original olefin.
