Carbo-metallic oil conversion with liquid water containing H2S

摘要

A method is disclosed for cracking a carbo-metallic oil feed containing high amounts of coke forming carbonaceous materials as characterized by a Conradson carbon value of more than 1 and containing a level of nickel and/or vanadium of greater than 5 ppm. The method includes contacting the feed with catalyst particles and liquid water containing hydrogen sulfide. At least a portion of the water may be recycled water from prior catalytic cracking of an oil feed containing sulfur.
