Abstract:
Described herein is a hydrocracking catalyst and process that may be used to make middle distillates and unconverted oil having beneficial yield and product characteristics. The process generally comprises contacting a hydrocarbon feed with the hydrocracking catalyst under hydrocracking conditions to produce a product comprising middle distillates and unconverted oil products. The hydrocracking catalyst comprises an SSZ-91 molecular sieve and a modifying metal selected from one or more Group 6 metals, and, optionally, one or more Group 8 to 10 metals, or a modifying metal selected from Group 8 to 10 metals and combinations thereof, and, optionally, one or more Group 6 metals. The hydrocracking catalyst may comprise a matrix material and/or an additional zeolite.
Abstract:
The process comprises hydrocracking a hydrocarbon feed in a single stage. The catalyst comprises a base impregnated with metals from Group 6 and Groups 8 through 10 of the Periodic Table, as well as citric acid. The base of the catalyst used in the present hydrocracking process comprises alumina, an amorphous silica-alumina (ASA) material, a USY zeolite, and a beta zeolite.
Abstract:
A hydrocracking process for converting a petroleum feed to lower boiling products. The process comprises hydrotreating a petroleum feed in a pre-treating zone in the presence of hydrogen to produce a hydrotreated effluent stream comprising a liquid product. At least a portion of the hydrotreated effluent stream is then passed to an MMS catalyst zone, and then to a hydrocracking zone. In one embodiment, the MMS catalyst zone comprises a self-supported multi-metallic catalyst prepared from a precursor in the oxide or hydroxide form. The percentage work of the hydrotreating in the pre-treating zone is maintained at a level of at least 56%.
Abstract:
A catalyst system has been designed that disrupts the sedimentation process. The catalyst system achieves this by saturating key feed components before the feed components are stripped into their incompatible aromatic cores. The efficacy of this disruptive catalyst system is particularly evident in a hydrocracker configuration that runs in two-stage-recycle operation. The catalyst is a self-supported multi-metallic catalyst prepared from a precursor in the hydroxide form, and the catalyst must be toward the top level of the second stage of the two-stage system.
Abstract:
Bulk catalysts comprised of nickel, molybdenum, tungsten and titanium and methods for synthesizing bulk catalysts are provided. The catalysts are useful for hydroprocessing, particularly hydrodesulfurization and hydrodenitrogenation, of hydrocarbon feedstocks.
Abstract:
Provided is a hydrocracking process with a recycle loop for converting a petroleum feed to lower boiling products, which process comprises reacting a stream over a non-zeolite noble metal catalyst at a temperature of about 650° F. (343° C.) or less in a reactor positioned in the recycle loop of the hydrocracking reactor.

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to an improved finished hydroisomerization catalyst manufactured from a first high nanopore volume (HNPV) alumina having a broad pore size distribution (BPSD), and a second HNPV alumina having narrow pore size distribution (NPSD). Their combination yields a HNPV base extrudate having a low particle density as compared to a conventional base extrudates.
