2020 CATALYST HANDBOOK INDUSTRY CATEGORIES PROCESS CATEGORIES COMPANY INDEX REFINING FCC KOC-15 Application: Reduction of CO emissions from fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) units. Afterburn control in FCC units. Description: KOC-15 is a combustion promoter and includes platinum, which catalyzes the reaction of CO and O2 to CO2. KOC-15 facilitates combustion in the dense bed where catalyst absorbs the produced heat. Afterburn in the dilute phase and/or plenum space is minimized (Fig. 1). Advantages: Excellent activity and attrition resistance. Economics: KOC-15 may allow extended run lengths with a damaged air grid, reduced fresh catalyst consumption, reduced equipment fatigue and/or reduced excess oxygen requirement. Catalyst system * Platinum-based Matrices * Alumina-based Binders * Integral binder KOC-15 uses a platinum-based catalyst technology Fig. 1. KOC-15 catalyst details. Development: Compatible with all of Albemarle's FCC catalysts. References: Nickell, R., " Combustion promoters on call, " Albemarle Catalyst Courier, Iss. 85, Spring 2016.
