US Patent:

7431825, Oct 7, 2008

Filed:

Dec 5, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/729270

Inventors:

Albert A. Vierheilig - Savannah GA, US
Bruce Keener - Rincon GA, US

Assignee:

Intercat, Inc. - Manasquan NJ

International Classification:

C10G 11/00

US Classification:

208113, 208155, 208213, 2081203, 20812035

Abstract:

The present invention describes novel methods for reducing sulfur in gasoline with hydrotalcite like compound additives, calcined hydrotalcite like compounds, and/or mixed metal oxide solution solutions. The additives can optionally further comprise one or more metallic oxidants and/or supports. The invention is also directed to methods for reducing gasoline sulfur comprising contacting a catalytic cracking feedstock with a mixed metal oxide compound comprising magnesium and aluminum and having an X-ray diffraction pattern displaying a reflection at least at a two theta peak position at about 43 degrees and about 62 degrees, wherein the ratio of magnesium to aluminum in the compound is from about 1:1 to about 10:1.
