Heavy oil demetallization and desulfurization process

Heavy oils containing sulfur and at least 80 parts per million metals are simultaneously demetallized and desulfurized by contacting the oil under hydrogenation conditions with a catalyst composition comprising a Group VI-B metal and at least one Group VIII metal composited with alumina, said cataly...

Zusammenfassung:Heavy oils containing sulfur and at least 80 parts per million metals are simultaneously demetallized and desulfurized by contacting the oil under hydrogenation conditions with a catalyst composition comprising a Group VI-B metal and at least one Group VIII metal composited with alumina, said catalyst composition having an average pore diameter greater than 100 A units, from 10-40 percent of the total pore volume in macropores and from 60-90 percent of the total pore volume in micropores, and at least 80 percent of the micropore volume being in pores having a diameter of at least 100 A units.
