It is shown that the pH values have a significant effect on the crystallinity of the synthesized product. Under proper conditions, the MCM 41 prepared on an industrial scale has the same performance as the samples prepared on an Lab scale. The prepared MCM 41 was used as a modifier of zeolite Y for fluid catalytic cracking(FCC) of residual oil. It is shown that the addition of the MCM 41 in the zeolite Y catalyst increases the pore size, and surface area of the catalysts, which helps to increase the yield of gasoline and diesel and decrease the production of gaseous product and carbon deposition in the catalyst. The better performance of the MCM 41 modified zeolite Y catalyst is believed to be due to its adjustment on the acidity and increase of the pore size.展开更多
