Hydroprocessing using hydrothermally-prepared bulk multimetallic catalysts

摘要

The invention relates to a process for upgrading hydrocarbonaceous feedstreams by hydroprocessing using bulk bimetallic catalysts. More particularly, the invention relates to a catalytic hydrotreating process for the removal of sulfur and nitrogen from a hydrocarbon feed such as a fuel or a lubricating oil feed. The catalyst is a bulk catalyst containing at leas one Group VIII metal and at least one Group VIB metal. The catalyst is prepared hydrothermally.
