The objectives of this research were: to characterize a number of alumina-supported sulfided molybdena catalysts and determine hydrodesulfurization activity with the aim of relating catalytic activities to catalyst properties, viz., structure, dispersion, active sites of the active Mo phase; to determine the effect of various additives to the alumina support on the above; and to develop preparation techniques to achieve higher activity catalysts. This report reviews the progress made during the final reporting period.
