CATALYST FOR HYDROCRACKING AND A METHOD FOR PRODUCING GAS OIL WITH LOW POUR POINT

摘要

The invention relates to a new catalyst applicable in hydrocracking of hydrocarbons. The catalyst according to the invention contains as catalytically active components: a) a ZSM-5 zeolite wherein 10-100 % of the exchangeable hydrogen ions have been replaced by nickel ions, and b) 0.3-3 parts by weight of magadiite in hydrogen form for 1 part by weight of component (a). The catalyst according to the invention can be applied to particular advantage in hydrodewaxing of gas oil, and enables one to produce gas oil with extremely low pour point.
