(2)CatalyticcrackingThe main purpose of the catalytic cracking is to increasegasoline outputand quality.Raw materials of the catalytic cracking are diesel, lubricatingoil,etc.Cracking is catalyzed by solid acids,whichpromotethecleavage of C-C bonds.Thekey intermediatesare carbocationsThey are formed by the action of the acid sites of the catalyst.Besides C-C bond cleavage a large number of other reactionsoccur:isomerization;protonation,deprotonation;alkylation;polymerization; cyclization,condensation.Catalytic cracking comprises a complex network of reactions,bothintra-molecularandinter-molecular
