- This invention relates to a new highly active slurry catalyst composition formed from the combination of a slurry comprising Group VIB and Group VIII metals and a hydrocarbon oil having a viscosity of at least 2 cSt (or 32.8 SSU) @ 212° F. The preferred viscosity range for the hydrocarbon oil is from at least about 2 cSt (or 32.8 SSU) @ 212° F. to 15 cSt (or 77.9 SSU) @ 212° F.
- The FIGURE illustrates the steps involved in the process of this invention. The active slurry catalyst composition is prepared by mixing
line 5, containing an oxide of Group VIB metal such as tungsten or molybdenum, andline 7, containing aqueous ammonia, in amixing zone 10. The temperature of the mixing zone is generally in the range from about 80° F. to about 200° F., preferably from about 100° F. to about 150° F., and most preferably from about 110° F. to about 120° F. The pressure of themixing zone 10 is generally from about atmospheric pressure to about 100 psig, preferably from about 5 psig to about 35 psig, and most preferably from about 10 psig to about 35 psig. The Group VIB metal oxide is dissolved in water containing the ammonia. The amount of ammonia added is based on the ratio of NH3 to Group VIB oxide in lbs/lbs and generally ranges from 0.1 lbs/lbs to about 1.0 lbs/lbs, preferably from about 0.15 lbs/lbs to about 0.50 lbs/lbs, and most preferably from about 0.2 lbs/lbs to about 0.30 lbs/lbs. The dissolved metal oxide in aqueous ammonia is moved vialine 15 to the first reaction zone. - The amount of hydrogen sulfide (line 9) added to the
reaction zone 20 is based on the ratio of H2S to Group VIB metal oxide in SCF/lbs and generally ranges from 4.0 SCF/lbs to about 20 SCF/lbs, preferably from about 8.0 SCF/lbs to about 18 SCF/lbs, and most preferably from about 12 to 14 SCF/lbs. The reaction time in the first reaction zone ranges from about 1 hour to 10 hours, preferably from 3 hours to 8 hours, and most preferably from about 4 hours to 6 hour per pound of Group VIB metal oxide. Conditions include a temperature in the range from 80° F. to 200° F., preferably in the range from 100° F. to 180° F., and most preferably in the range from 130° F. to 160° F. Pressure is in the range from 100 to 3000 psig, preferably in the range from 200 to 1000 psig, and most preferably from 300 to 500 psig. The resultant slurry is the catalyst precursor in an aqueous slurry phase. - The resultant slurry is combined with a Group VIII metal compound such as Ni or Co, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,484,755. As an enhancement of the denitrogenation activity of the active slurry catalyst of the present invention, it is preferred that a Group VIII metal compound be added to the slurry before mixing the slurry with feed oil and a hydrogen containing gas at elevated temperature and pressure. Such Group VIII metals are exemplified by nickel and cobalt. It is preferred that the weight ratio of nickel or cobalt to molybdenum range from about 1:100 to about 1:2. It is most preferred that the weight ratio of nickel to molybdenum range from about 1:25 to 1:10, i.e., promoter/molybdenum of 4-10 weight percent. The Group VIII metal, exemplified by nickel, is normally added in the form of the sulfate, and preferably added to the slurry after sulfiding at a pH of about 10 or below and preferably at a pH of about 8 or below. Group VIII metal nitrates, carbonates or other compounds may also be used. In view of the high activity of the slurry catalyst of the present invention, the further promotion by Group VIII metal compounds is very advantageous.
- The slurry containing the Group VIII metal promoter is moved, via
line 25, to mixingzone 30.Mixing zone 30 employs an inert atmosphere which can comprise nitrogen, refinery gas, or any other gas having little or no oxygen. The slurry and a hydrocarbon oil (line 11), such as VGO, are mixed continuously in a high shear mode to maintain a homogeneous slurry inmixer 30. High shear mixing encompasses a range from 100 to 1600 RPM. Preferably the mixing rate is greater than 500 RPM and most preferably greater than 1500 RPM. - The hydrocarbon oil has a kinetic viscosity of at least 2 cSt (32.8 SSU) @ 212° F. The kinetic viscosity can generally range from about 2 cSt (32.8 SSU) @ 212° F. to about 15 cSt (77.9 SSU) @ 212° F., preferably from about 4 cSt (39.5 SSU) @ 212° F. to about 10 cSt (59.2 SSU) @ 212° F., and most preferably from about 5 cSt (42.7 SSU) @ 212° F. to about 8 cSt (52.4 SSU) @ 212° F. The hydrocarbon oil causes the initial transformation of the catalyst precursor to an oil base from a water base. The ratio of Group VIB metal oxide to oil is at least less than 1.0, preferably less than 0.5, and more preferably less than 0:1. If the kinetic viscosity of the oil is below about 2 cSt (32.8 SSU) @ 212° F. or above about 15 cSt (77.9 SSU) @ 212° F., the first transformation of the catalyst precursor will result in catalyst particles agglomerating or otherwise not mixing. This mixture is known in the claims as Mixture X.
- The material from mixing zone 30 (Mixture X) moves to
reaction zone 40 vialine 35. Hydrogen is continuously added to themixture reaction zone 40, and high shear mixing is employed in thereaction zone 40 in order to maintain a homogenous slurry. Hydrogen is added at low pressure prior toreactor 40 and at highpressure following reactor 40. This is done in order to keep water in liquid phase inreactor 40, change water to vapor phase afterreactor 40 in order to flash off the water. When the low H2 rate is used inreactor 40, water is still in liquid phase. Followingreactor 40, more H2 is added, so the water changes to vapor phase, permitting separation from oil slurry in high pressure separator. The process conditions ofreactor 40 are critical to forming the final catalyst. The water in the mixture must be maintained in a liquid phase. - The temperature of the
reaction zone 40 generally ranges from about 300° F. to 600° F., preferably from about 350° F. to about 500° F., and most preferably from about 350° F. to about 450° F. The pressure of thereaction zone 40 generally ranges from about 100 psig to about 3000 psig, preferably from about 200 psig to about 1000 psig, and most preferably from about 300 psig to about 500 psig. The hydrogen flow to thereaction zone 40 generally ranges from about 300 SCFB to about 2000 SCFB, preferably from about 300 SCFB to about 1000 SCFB, and most preferably from about 300 SCFB to about 500 SCFB. The reaction time in thereaction zone 40 ranges from about 10 minutes to 5 hours, preferably from 30 minutes to 3 hours, and most preferably from about 1 hour to 1.5 hours. The resultant slurry mixture is the active catalyst composition in admixture with the hydrocarbon oil. - The slurry mixture is passed, through
line 55, tohigh pressure separator 50. More hydrogen is added inline 55 so the water changes to vapor phase. It can then be separated from oil slurry in the high pressure separator. The high pressure separator operates in a range from 300° F. to 700° F. Gases and water are removed overhead throughline 45 and passed to a three phase separator. The active catalyst composition is moved throughline 65 tostorage tank 60. The active catalyst composition is continuously mixed instorage tank 60 to maintain a homogenous slurry in a hydrogen atmosphere with little or no oxygen. In this way, the catalyst activity and stability are maintained. - The catalyst composition is useful for upgrading carbonaceous feedstocks which include atmospheric gas oils, vacuum gas oils, deasphalted oils, olefins, oils derived from tar sands or bitumen, oils derived from coal, heavy crude oils, synthetic oils from Fischer-Tropsch processes, and oils derived from recycled oil wastes and polymers. The catalyst composition is useful for but not limited to hydrogenation upgrading processes such as thermal hydrocracking, hydrotreating, hydrodesulphurization, hydrodenitrification, and hydrodemetallization.

The solution is then reacted with 10.71 SCF of H2S by passing a gas mixture of 20% H2S in H2 into the solution under strong mixing. The reactor temperature is 150° F. and the total pressure is 400 psig, and the reaction time is 4 hours. After reaction, 460 gram NiSO4 solution which contains 36 gram of Ni is added to the above obtained slurry. The obtained slurry mixture is then mixed with 8000 gram of vacuum gas oil at 100° F. The viscosity of the VGO is 5 cSt @ 212° F. The resulting mixture is then pumped into a continuously flow tanked reactor (perfectly mixed flow reactor) with H2 . The H2 gas rate is 300 SCF/B. The reactor pressure is 400 psig and reactor temperature is 400° F., the total reaction time is 1 hour. The reaction products are mixed with more H2 at a gas rate of 1500 SCF/B and then go to a hot high pressure separator, which is also maintained at a pressure of 400 psig, with temperature 500° F. to separate gas and liquid slurry. The obtained liquid slurry contains the highly active catalyst component.
