Hydrotreating catalyst composition and processes therefor and therewith

摘要

A catalyst composition, a process for producing the composition and a hydrotreating conversion process are disclosed. The composition comprises a zeolite having incorporated therein a promoter comprising a metal carbide or a metal nitride. The composition can be produced by incorporating a metal compound into the zeolite followed by thermal treatment of the resulting zeolite with a hydrocarbon, preferably in the presence of hydrogen, or with ammonia. The hydrotreating process comprises contacting a hydrocarbon-containing fluid with the catalyst composition under a condition sufficient to effect the reduction of sulfur content in the hydrocarbon-containing fluid.
