A catalyst structure includes a porous support structure, where the support structure includes an aluminosilicate material and any two or more metals loaded in the porous support structure selected from Ga, Ag, Mo, Zn, Co and Ce. The catalyst structure is used in a hydrocarbon upgrading process that is conducted in the presence of methane, nitrogen or hydrogen.

The present invention relates to a device and to a process for the fluidized bed catalytic cracking of a hydrocarbon feedstock, in which: a first feedstock (2) is cracked in a dense fluidized bed reactor (1) in the presence of a catalyst (3) to produce a first effluent; and at least one second feedstock (10) is cracked in a transport fluidized bed reactor (4) in the presence of the catalyst (3) supplied by the dense fluidized bed reactor (1) to produce a second effluent, the second feedstock (10) being a heavier feedstock than the first feedstock (2).

System and method for producing olefins are disclosed. The method includes using a radial flow moving bed reactor system to catalytically crack paraffins, in multiple stages with continuous catalyst regeneration, to form olefins. The system includes inter-stage heaters to facilitate increase in yield of olefins.

Provided is a Fluid Catalytic Cracking catalyst composition having increased propylene production with respect to other Fluid Catalytic Cracking catalysts (measured at constant conversion). The catalyst composition comprises a particulate which comprises (a) non-rare earth metal exchanged Y-zeolite in an amount in the range of about 5 to about 50 wt %, based upon the weight of the particulate; and (b) ZSM-5 zeolite in an amount in the range of about 2 to about 50 wt %, based upon the weight of the particulate.

A method that integrates a catalytic cracking process with a crude oil conversion to chemicals process is disclosed. The method may include contacting, in a catalytic cracking reactor, a mixture of the hydrocarbon stream comprising primarily C.sub.5 and C.sub.6 hydrocarbons from crude oil processing and a C.sub.4 to C.sub.5 hydrocarbon stream produced in a steam cracking unit with a catalyst under reaction conditions sufficient to produce an effluent comprising olefins.
