Abstract

Hydrocracking catalysts containing different acid and metal functions were evaluated for the cracking of n-hexadecane and an atmospheric gas-oil from Bombay High. The acid function was varied by choosing different zeolites. The studies show that both the acid function and the metal function determine the activities and selectivities of the catalysts. Feed S levels also seem to affect product selectivities. Best selectivities for middle distillates are obtained from catalysts containing wide pore-zeolites.
