SUPPORTED COBALT-SILICA COPRECIPITATED HYDROGENATION CATALYST

摘要

U.S. 514 Supported coprecipitated cobalt-silica hydrogenation catalysts are disclosed. The catalysts are prepared by: preparing an aqueous reaction mixture containing cobalt cations, silicate anions and solid porous carrier particles under agitation to form a coprecipitate of the cobalt and silicate ions onto said solid porous support particles; heating the aqueous reaction mixture; and adding an alkaline precipitating agent to further precipitate the cobalt and silicate ions onto said solid porous carrier particles. The aqueous reaction mixture may additionally include copper cations.
