Article Summary. To improve refinery margins, there is a trend to process heavier, more contaminated crude oil. Consequently, fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) feedstock is getting heavier (see Figure 1). 1 One of these contaminants that can be detrimental is nickel (see Figure 2). 2 Nickel (Ni) deposits on the FCC catalyst particle and catalyses …
