    Abstract: The specification discloses a highly macroporous catalyst for hydroprocessing and hydroconversion of heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks. The high macroporosity catalyst includes an inorganic oxide, molybdenum, and nickel components. It has a pore structure such that at least 18% of its total pore volume is in pores of a diameter greater than 5,000 angstroms and at least 25% of its total pore volume is in pores of a diameter greater than 1,000 angstroms. Preferably, the pore structure is bimodal. The catalyst is made by co-mulling the catalytic components with a high molecular weight polyacrylamide followed by forming the co-mulled mixture into a particle or an extrudate. The particle or extrudate is dried and calcined under controlled calcination temperature conditions to yield a calcined particle or extrudate of the high macroporosity catalyst composition.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of hydrotreating a heavy hydrocarbon feedstock using a hydrotreating catalyst having specific properties that make it effective in converting nitrogen, sulfur and micro-carbon residue of a heavy hydrocarbon feedstock. The catalyst comprises a calcined support particle impregnated with a Group 6 metal component (e.g., molybdenum), a nickel component, and a phosphorus component present at concentrations in the catalyst such that the atomic ratio of the Group 6 metal-to nickel metal are within a specified range. The nickel metal acid extractability property of the catalyst is at least 50 percent.
