    摘要: [Problem] To provide a catalyst for hydrotreating a heavy hydrocarbon oil, the catalyst exhibiting excellent demetallization performance, desulfurization performance, and deasphaltene performance and having high strength. [Solution] A hydrotreating catalyst, which is a catalyst for hydrotreating a heavy hydrocarbon oil, the catalyst including an alumina-phosphorus oxide carrier, and a hydrogenation-active metal component supported on the carrier, in which the content of phosphorus in the carrier is 0.4 to 2.0 mass % in terms of P2O5, the carrier has a local maximum value of the differential pore volume distribution in a pore diameter range of 18 to 22 nm measured by mercury intrusion porosimetry, in the carrier, the ratio (ΔPV/PVT) of a volume (ΔPV) of pores having a pore diameter in a range deviating from a range of a pore diameter at the local maximum value±2 nm to the total pore volume (PVT) measured by mercury intrusion porosimetry is 0.50 or less, and the crystalline form of a portion of alumina in the alumina-phosphorus oxide carrier is γ-alumina.

    摘要: An improved hydrotreating catalyst and process for making a base oil product wherein the catalyst comprises a base extrudate that includes a high nanopore volume amorphous silica alumina (ASA) and an alumina. The catalyst and process generally involve the use of a high nanopore volume ASA/alumina based catalyst to produce hydrotreated dewaxed base oil products by contacting the catalyst with a hydrocarbon feedstock. The catalyst base extrudate advantageously comprises an amorphous silica alumina having a pore volume in the 11-20 nm pore diameter range of 0.2 to 0.9 cc/g and an alumina having, a pore volume in the 11-20 nm pore diameter range of 0.01 to 1.0 cc/g, with the base extrudate formed from the amorphous silica alumina and the alumina having a total pore volume in the 2-50 nm pore diameter range of 0.12 to 1.80 cc/g. The catalyst further comprises at least one modifier element from Groups 6 to 10 and Group 14 of the Periodic Table. The catalyst and process provide improved aromatics saturation.
