Abstract

Abstract A process for hydrotreating (hydroprocessing) hydrocarbons and mixtures of hydrocarbons utilizing a catalytic composite comprising a combination of a nickel component, a molybdenum component and a platinum component with a zeolitic carrier material wherein said platinum component is present in an amount sufficient to result in the composite containing, on an elemental basis, about 0.2 to about 0.5 percent by weight platinum, in which process there is effected a chemical consumption of hydrogen. Hydrocarbon hydroprocesses are hydrocracking, the hydrogenation of aromatic nuclei, the ring-opening of cyclic hydrocarbons, desulfurization, denitrification, hydrogenation, etc.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A process for hydrocracking a hydrocarbonaceous charge stock into lower molecular weight hydrocarbons, which process comprises reacting said charge stock with hydrogen at hydrocracking conditions, and in contact with a catalyst composite comprising a combination of a nickel component, a molybdenum component and a platinum component with a zeolitic carrier material wherein said platinum component is present in an amount sufficient to result in the composite containing, on an elemental basis, about 0.2 to about 0.5 percent by weight platinum.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
A process for hydrocracking a hydrocarbonaceous charge stock into lower molecular weight hydrocarbons, which process comprises reacting said charge stock with hydrogen at hydrocracking conditions, and in contact with a catalyst composite comprising a combination of a nickel component, a molybdenum component and a platinum component with a zeolitic carrier material wherein said platinum component is present in an amount sufficient to result in the composite containing, on an elemental basis, about 0.2 to about 0.5 percent by weight platinum.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 58 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said hydrocracking conditions include a pressure of from about 400 to about 5000 psig., a liquid hourly space velocity of from about 0.1 to about 10, a hydrogen circulation rate of from about 1000 to about 50,000 SCFB and a maximum catalyst temperature of from about 200° F. to about 900° F.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 39 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said catalytic composite contains from about 1% to about 15% by weight of said nickel component and from about 1% to about 10% by weight of said molybdenum component, on an elemental basis.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said catalytic composite contains from about 0.1% to about 1.5% by weight of a halogen component, on an elemental basis.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said zeolitic carrier material is faujasite.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said zeolitic carrier material is admixed with an amorphous refractory inorganic oxide.
