Abstract

Abstract A catalyst is provided which comprises a crystalline silica zeolite, a hydrogenation component and a support. The crystalline zeolite may be present in an amount of from 0.1 to 80 w% (e.g., 5 to 60 w%) based on the catalyst, and the hydrogenation component may comprise a metal from Group VI or Group VIII of the Periodic Table. The catalyst may be a physical mixture of the silica zeolite and the supported hydrogenation component or a composite catalyst particle. Hydrocarbon hydroprocessing processes such as hydroconversion and hydrodesulfurization utilizing the catalyst are also provided. The catalyst is particularly suited for the simultaneous pour point reduction and hydrodesulfurization of hydrocarbonaceous oils.
