Abstract
Abstract A desulfurization catalyst which demonstrates superior desulfurization activity and which contains an inorganic oxide carrier material, a Group VIB metal component and a Group VIII metal component. The catalyst is prepared by (a) extruding at least 10% of the Group VIII metal component with the inorganic oxide carrier material, and (b) impregnating the resulting extrudate with a sufficient quantity of Group VIB and Group VIII metal components to yield a finished catalyst containing the requisite metallic component content.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A method of preparing a catalyst comprising an inorganic oxide carrier material, from about 0.1 to about 20% by weight of a Group VIB metal component and from about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of a Group VIII metal component, calculated as the elemental metals, which method comprises the steps of: a. extruding said carrier material in admixture with a salt of a Group VIII metal in an amount sufficient to supply at least 10% but not all of said Group VIII metal component; b. drying the resultant extrudate; c. calcining said dried extrudate at 700°-1200° F; d. impregnating the calcined extrudate with Group VIB and Group VIII metal salts in sufficient amount to supply the remainder of said Group VIII metal component and all of said Group VIB metal component; e. drying the thus impregnated extrudate, and f. calcining the said impregnated extrudate at 800°-1400° F.
Claim 2
Independent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
The method of claim 1 further characterized in that said inorganic oxide carrier material is alumina.
