Systems, methods, and catalysts for producing a crude product

摘要

Contact of a crude feed with one or more catalysts produces a total product that includes a crude product. The crude feed has a total Ni/V/Fe content of at least 0.00002 grams per gram of crude feed. The crude product is a liquid mixture at 25° C. and 0.101 MPa. At least one of the catalysts has a pore size distribution with a median pore diameter of at least 230 Å. The crude product has a total Ni/V/Fe of at most 90% of the total Ni/V/Fe content of the crude feed. One or more other properties of the crude product may be changed by at least 10% relative to the respective properties of the crude feed.
