摘要 |
A process for hydrogenation of an unsaturated hydrocarbon feedstock at an elevated temperature and pressure in a hydrogenation zone by (a) contacting the feedstock, in the presence of hydrogen, with a hydrogenating catalyst containing at least one noble metal on an alumina support and containing no essentially irreversibly sulfided metal (such as nickel, cobalt, or molybdenum), and (b) adding a chloride to the hydrogenation zone and reacting the chloride with the catalyst in an amount sufficient to increase hydrogenation activity of the catalyst.
