Abstract
Abstract A catalytic slurry process for effecting the conversion of a hydrocarbonaceous charge stock containing asphaltenes and metallic contaminants. The slurry constitutes charge stock, hydrogen, from about 1.0 to about 25.0 percent by weight of finely divided catalyst particles and, in a preferred embodiment, a portion of the previously produced product effluent. Preferred catalysts are the unsupported sulfides of the metals from Groups V-B, VI-B and VIII. Prior to an initial separation, hydrogen sulfide is commingled with the product effluent in order to convert the metals contained therein to the sulfides thereof.
