    Abstract: A FCC process including the steps of (a) adding a crude lignin oil (CLO) to a FCC unit, wherein the FCC unit has a FCC riser, a catalyst regenerator and a reactor/stripper, wherein CLO is a crude lignin oil composition including lignin and a polar organic solvent in 1:10 to 1:0.3 w/v ratio, (b) optionally adding a second feed including a conventional FCC feedstock to the FCC unit, (c) adding a regenerated catalyst from the regenerator to the FCC riser for catalytic cracking and upgrading the CLO and second feedstock to produce upgraded products and deactivated catalyst, (d) adding the upgraded products and deactivated catalyst from the FCC riser to the reactor/stripper and separating upgraded products from deactivated catalyst in the reactor/stripper, (e) adding the deactivated catalyst from (d) to the regenerator to regenerate the deactivated catalyst to provide regenerated catalyst; and collecting the upgraded products.
