Reviewer 2 Report

In this manuscript, the authors investigated the relationships between zeolite to matrix ratio and FCC performance. This work is interesting to the scientific community when studying the catalytic cracking of hydrotreated VGO. Minor revision is needed before publication being considered:

 

(1)   Reference style is missed, please modify it.

(2)   The role of Zeolite and matrix in the catalytic reaction need more discussions, for the better reaction mechanism investigation.

(3)   The reason for the decrease of acidity after catalytic reaction should be further discussed.

(4)   The standard XRD pdf card of catalyst should be included in the figure 2 for comparison.
