Chelant and polar additive containing composition useful in the hydroprocessing of hydrocarbon feedstocks and method of making and use thereof
A hydroprocessing catalyst composition that comprises a chelant treated metal containing support material having incorporated therein a polar additive. The catalyst composition is prepared by incorporating at least one metal component into a support material followed by treating the metal incorporated support with a chelating agent and thereafter incorporating a polar additive into the chelant treated composition.
1. A hydroprocessing catalyst composition, comprising: a metals incorporated shaped support, a chelating agent, and a polar additive,
wherein at least 75% of the available pore volume of said metal incorporated support is filled with said polar additive.
2. The hydroprocessing catalyst composition as recited in claim 1 , wherein said chelating agent is selected from the group of compounds consisting of aminocarboxylic acids, polyamines, aminoalcohols, oximes, and polyethyleneimines.
3. The hydroprocessing catalyst composition as recited in claim 2 , wherein said polar additive is a heterocompound having polarity and a dipole moment of at least 0.45.
4. The hydroprocessing catalyst composition as recited in claim 3 , wherein said additive impregnated composition comprises a Group 9 or Group 10 metal component selected from the group consisting of cobalt and nickel present in an amount in the range of from 0.5 wt. % to 20 wt. %, and a Group 6 metal component selected from the group consisting of molybdenum and tungsten present in an amount in the range of from 5 wt. % to 50 wt. %, wherein the weight percents are based on the weight of the dry support material with the metal component as the element regardless of its actual form.
5. The hydroprocessing catalyst composition as recited in claim 4 , wherein said shaped support comprises a porous refractory oxide selected from the group of refractory oxides consisting of silica, alumina, titania, zirconia, silica-alumina, silica-titania, silica-zirconia, titania-alumina, zirconia-alumina, silica-titania and combinations of two or more thereof; and wherein said shaped support has a surface area (as determined by the BET method) in the range of from 50 m 2 /g to 450 m 2 /g, a mean pore diameter in the range of from 50 to 200 angstroms (Å), and a total pore volume exceeding 0.55 cc/g.
6. A hydroprocessing process, comprising: contacting under hydroprocessing reaction conditions the composition of claim 1 .
