PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF HYDROCARBON FUELS

摘要

Hydrocarbon fuels are prepared from a hydrocarbon feed obtained by a Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and comprising a fraction having a boiling point above the boiling point range of the hydrocarbon fuels, by a process which comprises contacting the said hydrocarbon feed at elevated temperature and pressure in the presence of hydrogen with a catalyst comprising a silica-alumina carrier impregnated with platinum by a process comprising contacting the carrier with a platinum salt in the presence of a liquid under acidic conditions.
