Heavy oil hydroprocessing with group VI metal slurry catalyst
Patent
·
OSTI ID:5463467
This patent describes a process comprising the preparation of a dispersed Group VIB metal sulfide hydrocarbon oil hydroprocessing catalyst. It comprises reacting ammonia and a Group of VIB metal compound in water to form an aqueous ammonium Group VIB metal compounds, reacting aqueous ammonium Group VIB metal compounds with hydrogen sulfide essentially in the absence of feed oil in a low temperature sulfiding step at a temperature in the range 70{sup 0} to 350{sup 0}F, continuing the reaction of aqueous ammonium Group VIB metal compound with hydrogen sulfide in an intermediate temperature sulfiding step at a temperature in the range 180{sup 0} to 700{sup 0}F which is higher than the temperature in the low temperature sulfiding step and essentially without feed oil, with drawing an aqueous effluent stream from the intermediate temperature sulfiding step, passing the effluent stream to a separator zone, removing ammonia from the aqueous effluent stream in the separator zone leaving a separator residue, passing the separator residue together with feed hydrocarbon oil and hydrogen sulfide to a high temperature sulfiding step at a temperature in the range 500{sup 0} to 750{sup 0}F which is higher than the temperature in the intermediate temperature sulfiding step, the residence time in each of the sulfiding steps being at least 0.02 hours, withdrawing from the high temperature sulfiding step an aqueous-oil-slurry containing dispersed group VIB metal sulfide slurry catalyst.
