Abstract:
A second-stage hydrocracking catalyst is provided, comprising: a) a zeolite beta having an OD acidity of 20 to 400 nmol/g and an average domain size from 800 to 1500 nm2; b) a zeolite USY having an ASDI between 0.05 and 0.12; c) a catalyst support; and d) 0.1 to 10 wt % noble metal; wherein the second-stage hydrocracking catalyst provides a hydrogen consumption less than 350 SCFB across a range of synthetic conversions up to 37 wt % when used to hydrocrack hydrocarbonaceous feeds having an initial boiling point greater than 380° F. (193° C.). A second-stage hydrocracking process using the second-stage hydrocracking process is provided. A method to make the second-stage hydrocracking catalyst is also provided.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a hydroprocessing catalyst containing at least one catalyst support, one or more metals, optionally one or more molecular sieves, optionally one or more promoters, wherein deposition of at least one of the metals is achieved in the presence of a modifying agent.

Abstract:
A catalyst precursor composition and methods for making such a catalyst precursor are disclosed. The catalyst precursor comprises at least a promoter metal selected from Group VIII, Group IIB, Group IIA, Group IVA and combinations thereof having an oxidation state of +2 or +4, at least one Group VIB metal having an oxidation state of +6, and at least one organic oxygen-containing ligand. Catalysts prepared from the sulfidation of such catalyst precursors are used in the hydroprocessing of hydrocarbon feeds.

Abstract:
The invention provides for a process for dewaxing a waxy hydrocarbon feedstock to form a lubricant oil. The invention is also directed to a catalyst system comprising a hydrotreating catalyst upstream of a dewaxing catalyst, used in the dewaxing of a waxy hydrocarbon feedstock to form a lubricant oil. In particular, the invention is directed to a process and catalyst system designed to maintain yield of lubricant oil product. Specifically, the yield of lubricant oil does not decrease more than 2%, at a target pour point, over a dewaxing temperature range. The hydrotreating catalyst helps prevent aging of the dewaxing catalyst and maintains lubricant oil product yield at a target pour point over a wide temperature range. The hydrotreating catalyst comprises platinum, palladium, or combinations thereof on a low acidity inorganic oxide support where acidity is measured by a decalin conversion of less than 10% at 700F.
