Hydrotreating process variable studies on raw EDS process gas oil were continued at 250 psig above base pressure. Two additional series of studies have been made. Tests were run at 11/sup 0/C above base temperature and 5/sup 0/C below base temperature, and three space velocities. In all cases heptane insolubles were completely converted and substantial amounts of nitrogen were removed. Nitrogen conversions as high as 99.9 wt. percent were obtained. The second preparative H-Coal gas oil hydrotreating run, aimed at producing a FCC feedstock with high hydrogen content, has been completed. Mass spectroscopy (MS) analyses of the EDS naphtha before and after upgrading have been completed. The upgraded naphtha was reformed over a commercial Platforming catalyst over a series of conditions. MS analyses, as well as other required analyses, of four selected reformates were completed.
