Water dealkylation catalysts of petroleum fractions containing monoalkylated or polyalkylated aromatic hydrocarbons including at least one metal of group VIII deposited in a proportion of from 0.1 to 5% by weight on a spinel, and having deposited in a proportion of from 0.1 to 5% by weight on a spinel, and having improved properties of activity, selectivity and stability, characterized in that the carrier is a mixed spinel of the formula (MxM'1-x)Al2O4 wherein M is a bivalent base metal of group VIII such as nickel, iron and cobalt and M' is a bivalent metal belonging to groups 2a, 7b, 1b or 2b such as magnesium, manganese, copper and zinc. The mol. ratio M/M' may vary from 0.5:1 to 50:1, preferably from 1:1 to 20:1. |
