Title: Catalyst and process for the hydrogenitrogenation and hydrocracking of high-nitrogen feeds

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6139976

There is disclosed a catalyst, which catalyst comprises a hydrogenation component comprising chromium, molybdenum, and at least one metal of Group VIII, a crystalline molecular sieve zeolite, and a porous refractory inorganic oxide. Suitable molecular sieve zeolites are those having pore diameters of at least 5 A (0.5 nm) and containing exchangeable cations, for example, faujasite crystalline aluminosilicates, mordenite crystalline aluminosilicates, ZSM crystalline aluminosilicates, and AMS crystalline metallosilicates. There are also disclosed processes for the hydrodenitrogenation and hydrocracking of a hydrocarbon stream containing a substantial amount of nitrogen compounds, which processes comprise contacting said stream under suitable conditions and in the presence of hydrogen with the aforesaid catalyst.
