Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is a method of preparing a catalyst for hydrogenation of a hydrocarbon oil, in which an aqueous solution containing a metal of the Group VI of the Periodic Table and a metal of the Group VIII of the same along with a hydroxycarboxylic acid and optionally phosphoric acid is added to a carrier substance consisting essentially of at least one of an inorganic oxide and an inorganic hydrate, and the resulting blend is kneaded, shaped and thereafter dried at a temperature not higher than 200°C. The catalyst has a high catalyst activity and is used for hydrogenation of a hydrocarbon oil, especially satisfying the requirement of reducing the sulfur content in a light oil.
