Definitions
- the invention relates to a cogel comprising oxidic compounds of one or more trivalent metallic elements selected from the group of aluminium, borium, gallium, chromium, iron, cobalt, manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, tungsten, indium, rhodium, scandium, or mixtures thereof, oxidic compounds of one or more tetravalent metallic elements selected from the group of silicon, titanium, germanium, or mixtures thereof, and oxidic compounds of one or more divalent metallic elements.
- the invention further relates to a process for preparing said cogel as well as to catalysts comprising these cogels, a process for preparing said catalysts, and the use of these catalysts for hydroprocessing applications.
- These materials are characterized by relatively low surface areas in the range of 166 - 375 m 2 /g (after calcination at 550°C). Especially the materials with low saponite contents are characterized by very low surface areas below 300m 2 /g (after calcination at 550°C).
- the synthesis of clay minerals via hydrothermal crystallization is technically relatively difficult and time-consuming. Therefore, in recent years a great deal of research has been done to develop synthetic clay materials which are obtainable without using hydrothermal crystallization techniques.
- WO 96/07613 describes the preparation of such synthetic clay minerals by bringing the pH of an aqueous liquid containing precursors for the clay to be prepared to a value of 3 - 9 and the temperature of the liquid to a value of from 60° to 350°C. Both the temperature and the pH are maintained at said range for the time required for the formation of the clay mineral. The time required depends on the temperature applied: at lower temperatures of 60° - 125°C, times of 5 to 25 hours are necessary, whereas at temperatures in the range of 150°C and higher, times in the order of some minutes to approximately 2.5 hours may suffice. However, as can be deduced from the Examples of said reference, to obtain the desired clay minerals, usually times in the order of 7 to 48 hours must be applied.
- the resulting clays have a crystalline structure with distinct peaks in the X-ray diffraction pattern at about 20*20°, 2 ⁇ «35° and 2 ⁇ «60°. They are made up of elementary three-layer platelets with dimensions from 0.01 ⁇ m to 1 ⁇ m, which are optionally stacked to up to 20 platelets.
- a clay material is a saponite, which is a clay in which the tetravalent silicon ions of the tetrahedron layers are at least partly replaced by trivalent aluminium ions and in which the octahedral layer contains divalent ions almost exclusively.
- the deficiency of positive charge which results from the replacement of the silicon ions by aluminium ions is compensated by including cations ("counter-ions") between the platelets.
- catalysts which at least comprise a hydrogenation metal component and a swelling synthetic clay.
- the catalyst is suitable for hydroprocessing of hydrocarbon feeds.
- a disadvantage of the clay minerals of WO 96/07613 is their poor filterability, which typically is above 2000 s, expressed as normalized filtration time. Because of this low filterability, the generally required washing step of the resulting precipitated clay mineral is difficult to apply on a technical scale. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide clay-like materials with good filterability which are suitable as, e.g., cracking components in hydroprocessing catalysts.
- Br ⁇ nsted acid sites can be achieved by replacing the non-hydrolysable counter-ions (such as sodium or potassium cations) by ammonium ions which compensate the deficiency of positive charge of the clays and then heating the whole. This process will result in ammonia desorption, leaving a proton to form a Br ⁇ nsted site. Br ⁇ nsted sites can also be introduced by replacing the counter-ions with hydrolysable metal ions. Hydrolysis will then give hydrogen ions.
- non-hydrolysable counter-ions such as sodium or potassium cations
- catalysts to be used in hydroprocessing are generally calcined prior to use and are subject to relatively high temperatures during use and regeneration, it is preferred that the cation-exchange capacity of the cracking components is not dramatically reduced when being subjected to high temperature.
- a further object of the present invention therefore consists of the provision of easily filterable ciay- like materials with high cation-exchange capacities in which a substantial amount of the counter-ions compensating the deficiency of positive charge of the clay-like materials has been replaced by hydrogen ions or counter- ions which can generate hydrogen ions.
- One further important characteristic of a cracking component is its surface area.
- a high surface area is essential.
- the cracking component which is incorporated into the catalyst has a sufficiently high surface area.
- the surface area of the cracking components is not dramatically reduced when being subjected to high temperature.
- a cogel comprising oxidic compounds of one or more trivalent metallic elements selected from the group of aluminium, borium, gallium, chromium, iron, cobalt, manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, tungsten, indium, rhodium, scandium, or mixtures thereof, oxidic compounds of one or more tetravalent metallic elements selected from the group of silicon, titanium, germanium, or mixtures thereof, and oxidic compounds of one or more divalent metallic elements which are not exclusively selected from Group VIII non-noble metallic elements, wherein a) apart from optionally present saponite, the cogel is essentially X-ray amorphous; b) the saponite content C A of the cogel is less than 60 %; c) the cogel has a surface area of at least 400 m 2 /g; d) the cogel has a cation-exchange capacity of
- the cogel of the present invention is essentially X-ray amorphous.
- X-ray amorphous is well-known to the person skilled in the art and means that no crystalline peaks are contained in a spectrum but only broad amorphous peaks are observed.
- essentially X-ray amorphous in the sense of the present invention means that apart from any saponite peaks, there are essentially no further crystalline peaks visible in the X-ray diffraction pattern of the cogel.
- small crystalline peaks e.g., due to impurities present in the cogel, such as brucite, are not excluded by the term "essentially X-ray amorphous”.
- Saponite peaks generally include crystalline peaks located at 20°(2 ⁇ ), 35°(2 ⁇ ), and 60°(2 ⁇ ), and optionally 28°(2 ⁇ ).
- the saponite content C A is determined from the X-ray diffraction pattern of the cogel. Details will be described below.
- the cogel has a surface area of at least 400 m 2 /g.
- the surface area of the cogel is at least 450 m 2 /g and even more preferably, it is at least 500 m 2 /g.
- a hydroprocessing catalyst is generally calcined prior to its use. It is therefore preferred that the surface area of the cogel to be used as cracking component in that catalyst does not decrease dramatically during calcination. More in particular, it is preferred that the quotient between the surface area of the cogel after calcination in air at 550°C for one hour and the surface area of the uncalcined cogel is at least 0.80. This quotient will be designated as "surface area ratio" in the following. It is further preferred that the surface area of the cogel after calcination in air at 550°C for one hour is at least 350 m 2 /g and more preferably at least 400 m 2 /g.
- the cogels disclosed therein are clearly different from the cogel of the present invention, at least in that the surface area of the uncalcined cogels obtained in these examples is significantly below 400 m 2 /g.
- DD 0152331 is dealing with similar cogels.
- This reference refers to a catalyst used in the dimerization of propene comprising a supported nickel aluminosilicate.
- the catalyst is prepared by the precipitation of aluminium and/or nickel hydroxide on silica gel or X-ray amorphous aluminosilicates, followed by a thermal treatment.
- This catalyst thus comprises nickel, a Group VIII non-noble metallic element, as only divalent metallic element. If such a catalyst is used in hydroprocessing applications wherein the catalyst is sulphided either prior to or during use, the nickel will be sulphided and removed from the cogel.
- the cogel of DD 0152331 or generally any cogel, which comprises a Group VIII non-noble metal as only divalent metallic element is unsuitable as cracking component in hydroprocessing applications. It is therefore essential to the cogel of the present invention that it comprises a divalent metallic element which is not exclusively selected from Group VIII non-noble metallic elements.
- the trivalent metallic element contained in the cogel of the present invention is selected from the group of aluminium, borium, gallium, chromium, iron, cobalt, manganese, vanadium, molybdenum, tungsten, indium, rhodium, scandium, or mixtures thereof.
- the trivalent metallic element preferably comprises aluminium, gallium, borium, or mixtures thereof, more preferably comprises aluminium and most preferably consists essentially of aluminium.
- the tetravalent metallic element contained in the cogel is selected from the group of silicon, titanium, germanium, or mixtures thereof. It preferably comprises silicon, titanium, or mixtures thereof, more preferably comprises silicon, and most preferably consists essentially of silicon.
- the one or more divalent metallic elements of the cogel of the present invention are generally selected from non-Group VIII metallic elements such as, preferably, magnesium, zinc, manganese, copper, beryllium, or mixtures thereof.
- these non-Group VIII metallic elements can be combined with one or more Group VIII non-noble metallic elements.
- Preferred Group VIII non-noble metallic elements are cobalt or nickel or mixtures thereof.
- the one or more divalent metallic elements must not be selected exclusively from Group VIII non-noble metallic elements.
- the non-Group VIII metallic element preferably comprises magnesium and more preferably consists essentially of magnesium.
- the molar ratio between the oxidic compounds of the tetravalent and the oxidic compounds of the trivalent metallic elements of the cogel of the present invention generally is at least 2 and not more than 30. Preferred are molar ratios of at least 4, even more preferably of at least 6. It is further preferred that the molar ratio is not more than 20, more preferably not more than 12.
- the atomic ratio between the one or more divalent metallic elements and the total of tri- and tetravalent metallic elements contained in the cogel of the present invention lies between 0.03 and 1.00. It is preferred that this atomic ratio lies between 0.10 and 1.00 and more preferably between 0.20 and 0.50.
- At least 50%, preferably at least 70%, of the one or more trivalent metallic elements in the cogel of the present invention such as aluminium has a coordination number of 4. This results in a negative charge of the cogel, which is counterbalanced by counter-ions.
- sodium or potassium ions may be present as counter-ions. In order to make the cogel suitable for hydrocracking applications, these sodium and potassium ions have to be replaced by, e.g., ion-exchange with ammonium or hydrolysable metal ions. As has been set out above, upon ammonia desorption or upon hydrolysis of the hydrolysable metals, hydrogen ions are generated.
- the amount of hydrogen ions of the cogel can be indirectly characterized by determining the amount of sodium ions and potassium ions present in the cogel.
- the cogel must contain less than 0.5 wt% of the total of sodium and potassium, based on the total weight of the dry cogel.
- the total of sodium and potassium, based on the total weight of the dry cogel amounts to less than 0.3 wt%, more preferably to less than 0.2 wt%, and most preferably to less than 0.1 wt.%.
- high cation-exchange capacities are desirable in cracking applications.
- the cation-exchange capacity of the cogel of the present invention is at least 0.5 wt%, and preferably is above 1.0 wt%, more preferably above 2.0 wt%. Generally, the cation-exchange capacity of the cogel is less than 10 wt%. Further, as has been set out above, the cation-exchange capacity of the cogel should not dramatically decrease when high temperatures are applied, e.g., during calcination or use. Therefore, it is preferred that the quotient between the cation- exchange capacity of the cogel after calcination in air at 550°C for one hour and the cation-exchange capacity of the uncalcined cogel is at least 0.6 and more preferably at least 0.7.
- cation-exchange capacity ratio or “CEC ratio” in the following.
- CEC ratio the cation-exchange capacity of a sample calcined in air for one hour at 550°C is at least 0.5 wt.%, more preferably 1.0 wt% and most preferably at least 2.0 wt%.
- the saponite content C A of the cogel is less than 60 %.
- the saponite content C A is less than 55 % and more preferably less than 50 %. It is further preferred that the saponite content C A is at least 10% and more preferably at least 20%.
- the saponite content C A of the cogel is determined by method A, which will be explained below.
- the saponite content of the cogel according to the invention C B is less than 30 %, more preferably less than 25 %, still more preferably less than 20 %.
- the saponite content C B is determined by method B, which will also be explained below.
- the properties of the cogel of the present invention can be determined by the following characterization methods: a) Determination of the amount of saponite in the cogel
- Method A The X-ray diffraction pattern of a mildly ground material previously dried at 120°C is measured in a standard sample holder using a conventional powder diffractometer, such as a Siemens D5000 ⁇ - ⁇ reflection diffractometer with nickel filtered Cu-K ⁇ radiation (measuring conditions: generator settings are 40 kV and 50 mA; divergence and anti-scatter slits 0.5°; 0.2 mm detector slit)
- the scan range, expressed as 2 ⁇ is 12° - 70° with a step size of 0.05°, and a time per step of 20 seconds.
- Amorphous material present in the sample produces a broad peak with a peak maximum at about 26°(2 ⁇ ), whereas peaks due to the presence of saponite are located at about 20°(2 ⁇ ), 35°(2 ⁇ ) and 60°(2 ⁇ ).
- the peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ) and 35°(2 ⁇ ) show overlap with the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ).
- the amount of saponite C A contained in the cogel of the present invention is defined as 100S / (S + T) %, where S is the total peak area of the saponite peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ), 35°(2 ⁇ ) and 60°(2 ⁇ ) and T is the area of the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ).
- S is the total peak area of the saponite peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ), 35°(2 ⁇ ) and 60°(2 ⁇ )
- T is the area of the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ).
- SOCABIM represented by Bruker / AXS.
- the whole fit procedure is carried out in two separate steps.
- the fit range is restricted to the 13.0°(2 ⁇ ) - 49.0°(2 ⁇ ) range and the three peaks located in this range, viz. the peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ), 26°(2 ⁇ ) and 35°(2 ⁇ ) are fitted.
- the fit range is restricted to the 54.0°(2 ⁇ ) - 66.0°(2 ⁇ ) range and the peak located in this fit range, viz. the peak at about 60°(2 ⁇ ) is fitted.
- the first part of the fit procedure is carried out as follows: 1) the prefit status is defined: a) three different models A, B, and C are defined for the fit functions applied for the three peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ) (model A), 26°(2 ⁇ ) (model B), and
- - model A Pearson VII profile function with FWHM (Full Width Half Maximum) fixed at 3.2°(2 ⁇ ) and adjustable exponent set at, e.g., 1.1
- - model B Pearson VII profile function with FWHM fixed at 9.0°(2 ⁇ ) and adjustable exponent set at, e.g., 5.8,
- the peak areas obtained with the above-described fit procedure for the fit functions of models A, B, and C are taken as the peak areas of the peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ) (model A), 26°(2 ⁇ ) (model B), and 35°(2 ⁇ ) (model C). If either one or both of the peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ) and 35°(2 ⁇ ) is not found by the program, or if the left half FWHM of the fit function of model C applied for the peak at about 35°(2 ⁇ ) is larger than 5°(2 ⁇ ) after refinement, steps (1 ) and (2) are carried out again with model B alone and the thus obtained peak area of the fit function of model B is taken as the peak area of the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ). The peak areas of the peaks at about 20°(2 ⁇ ) and 35°(2 ⁇ ) are taken to be 0.0 in this case.
- the second fit procedure is earned out as follows: 1) the prefit status is defined as follows: a) a model D is defined for the fit function applied for the peak at about 60°(2 ⁇ ) as Pearson VII profile function with adjustable FWHM set at, e.g., 2.8°(2 ⁇ ) and adjustable exponent set at, e.g., 2.4, b) the ⁇ j / ⁇ ., ratio is set at 0.0. c) a peak is initialized at the position 60.2°(2 ⁇ ). d) a linear background is defined by the program and adjusted during refinement. 2) refinement is carried out in 5 cycles as described for the first part of the fit procedure.
- the peak area obtained with the fit function of model D is taken as the peak area of the peak at about 60°(2 ⁇ ).
- the adjustable parameters in the prefit status in such a way that the initial peak and the actual peak match as closely as possible. It is further evident to the skilled person that if the program does not find the corresponding peak when the adjustable starting parameters have been chosen properly, the area of this peak is to be taken to be zero.
- Method B The material is analyzed with X-ray diffraction as described for method A with the single exception that the time per step is 40 s instead of 20 s.
- the amount of saponite C B is determined according to
- R is the ratio between the background subtracted peak area of the peak at about 60°(2 ⁇ ) and the background subtracted peak height of the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ).
- the background subtracted peak area of the peak at about 60°(2 ⁇ ) is, e.g., obtained by applying the "compute single peak” option available in the EVA software (v3.30) of SOCABIM (represented by Bruker / AXS). Via this option in automatic background mode, a linear background is drawn from 55.0 to 65.0°(2 ⁇ ). The background corrected peak area is obtained as the normalized net area provided by the program.
- the background subtracted peak height of the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ) is obtained by subtracting the intensity measured at 49°(2 ⁇ ), which is taken to be the background, from the intensity at the peak maximum of the broad peak at about 26°(2 ⁇ ).
- the surface area of a sample previously evacuated at 300°C is determined via the B.E.T. method (nitrogen adsorption, p/p 0 range: 0.06 - 0.30).
- the surface area refers to the surface area of an uncalcined sample. Otherwise, i.e., when the sample has been calcined prior to the determination of the surface area, it is always specified to be the surface area of a calcined sample.
- CEC cation-exchange capacity
- the cation- exchange capacity refers to the cation-exchange capacity of an uncalcined sample. Otherwise, i.e., when the sample has been calcined prior to the determination of the surface area, it is always specified to be the surface area of a calcined sample. d) Determination of the amount of trivalent metallic elements with a coordination number of 4
- the amount of trivalent metallic elements with a coordination number of 4 is measured on the dried cogel. It is determined, e.g., by NMR. If, e.g., aluminium is the trivalent metallic element, the amount of aluminium with a coordination number of 4 is determined by 27 AI-NMR.
- An amount of the cogel containing slurry is filtered at a temperature of 60°C at 20 cm Hg underpressure using a filter of approximately 100 cm 2 with a black ribbon - 589 filter (commercially available at Schleicher and Schnel) to obtain a filter cake with a thickness of between 10 and 15 mm.
- An amount of 1.5 displacements of demineralized water with a temperature of 60°C is gently poured onto the filter cake and filtered until the surface is just dry. This washing step is repeated twice. Then the filter cake thickness ⁇ in mm is measured.
- An amount of 1.5 displacements of demineralized water with a temperature of 60°C is filtered until the surface is just dry. The required time t in seconds for the water to be filtered through the filter cake in this last filtration step is determined.
- the normalized filtration time NFT is calculated according to the following equation
- the NFT corresponds to the filtration time in which 1 (volume) displacement passes through a filter cake with a normalized thickness of 10 mm.
- the cogel of which the NFT is to be determined must not have been dried or stored for a longer time but must be a freshly prepared cogel.
- the cogel of the present invention is prepared by a process comprising the steps of mixing an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable trivalent metallic elements and an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable tetravalent metallic elements and an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable divalent metallic elements; choosing the pH conditions in such a way as to cause the precipitation of the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements present in the mixture; isolating the precipitate containing the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements, if applicable before the saponite content C A of the precipitate has become equal to or higher than 60%, and, if necessary, carrying out an ion-exchange treatment to reduce the total of sodium and potassium present in the final cogel to an amount of less than 0.5 wt%, based on the total weight of the cogel.
- the ion-exchange treatment preferably is performed in such a way as to reduce the total of sodium and potassium present in the cogel to an amount of less than 0.3 wt%, more preferably less than 0.2 wt%, and most preferably less than 0.1 wt%, based on the total weight of the cogel.
- the total of sodium and potassium of the cogel already amounts to less than 0.5 wt%, 0.3 wt%, 0.2 wt%, or 0.1 wt%, respectively, an ion-exchange treatment of course is not necessary. If, e.g., the cogel of the present invention is prepared using sodium- and potassium-free materials, a sodium- and potassium-free cogel results and an ion-exchange treatment is not necessary.
- the counter-ions of the sodium- and potassium-free cogel are, e.g., metal ions with a low hydrolysability, it may be preferred to replace these metal ions partially or as a whole by hydrogen ions via, e.g., ion-exchange with ammonium ions or metal ions with a higher hydrolysability.
- ion-exchange treatment any treatment by which the sodium and/or potassium ions, which act as counter-ions in the cogel, are replaced by ions which are the source of hydrogen ions.
- An ion-exchange treatment can be, e.g., an ion-exchange with ammonium ions or an ion-exchange with hydrolysable metal ions. It must be assured during the process of the present invention that the saponite content C A of the resulting final cogel is not equal to or higher than 60 %.
- the process of the present invention is carried out in such a way as to result in a cogel that has a saponite content C A of less than 55 % and more preferably of less than 50 % and preferably more than 10% and more preferably more than 20%. It is further preferred that the process of the present invention is carried out in such a way as to result in a final cogel with a saponite content C B of less than 30 %, more preferably of less than 25 %, still more preferably of less than 20 %. This can be done by selecting the ratio of the starting materials in such a way that the saponite content C A and optionally C B cannot become equal to or higher than the above-given values, independently from the time after which the precipitate is isolated.
- the time after which the precipitate containing the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements is isolated in such a way that the above-given saponite contents are obtained, independently from the ratio of the starting materials. More specifically, if the ratio of the starting materials is such that the saponite content of the final cogel could, in principle, become higher than the above values, the time after which the precipitate is isolated must be chosen short enough in order to prevent this. Further, the time and/or the ratio of the starting materials is preferably chosen in such a way that the saponite content of the final cogel does not lie below the above given lower limits for the saponite content of the cogel. Generally, the time after which the precipitate is isolated is held short for economical reasons.
- cogels can be prepared which have a far better filterability than the materials obtained by the process described in WO 96/07613 where before filtration an ageing step is performed. Hence, it is possible to considerably shorten the time necessary for the separation of the mother liquid, the washing procedure of the cogel, and the subsequent ion-exchange, which of course is economically highly favourable.
- cogels can be obtained with a filterability, expressed as normalized filtration time NFT, preferably of 1000 s or lower, more preferably of 500 s or lower, and most preferably of 200 s or lower.
- a calcination step is performed subsequent to the ion-exchange. This can suitably be done at a temperature of 350° - 900°C, preferably of 400° - 800°C for a time period of generally 0.5 - 8 h.
- the cogel of the present invention can be obtained by, for example, a) simultaneously mixing an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable trivalent metallic elements and an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable tetravalent metallic elements and an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable divalent metallic elements; b) choosing the pH conditions in such a way as to cause the precipitation of the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements present in the mixture, and c) isolating the resulting precipitate containing the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements, if applicable before the saponite content C A of the precipitate has become equal to or higher than 60 %, and, if necessary, d) carrying out an ion-exchange treatment to reduce the total of sodium and potassium present in the final cogel to an amount of less than 0.5 wt%, based on
- the cogel of the present invention can be obtained by, e.g., a) simultaneously mixing an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable trivalent metallic elements and an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable tetravalent metallic elements b) optionally choosing the pH conditions in such a way as to cause the precipitation of the oxidic compounds of tri- and tetravalent metallic elements present in the mixture; c) optionally isolating and washing the resulting precipitate containing the oxidic compounds of tri- and tetravalent metallic elements; d) subsequently adding an aqueous solution of a source of oxidic compounds of one or more suitable divalent metallic elements e) choosing the pH conditions in such a way as to cause the precipitation of the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements present in the mixture, f) isolating the resulting precipitate containing the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and
- the ion- exchange treatment can also be carried out after step b) instead of after step f).
- care must be taken in the further steps, e.g., during step e) that the amount of sodium and potassium of the resulting final cogel is not increased to above the desired value. If this should be the case, an additional ion-exchange treatment after step f) would become necessary to reduce the total of sodium and potassium present in the final cogel to the desired value.
- the order of the process steps is not critical with respect to the addition of the sources of oxidic compounds of di-, tri- and tetravalent metallic elements. It must be noted again that independent of the order of the process steps, at least before the isolation step of the precipitate of the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements, the pH conditions must be chosen in such a way as to cause the precipitation of the oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements present in the mixture.
- the choice of the desired pH conditions can be effected by, e.g., adding the sources of oxidic compounds of di-, tri-, and tetravalent metallic elements to a water heel which has the desired pH.
- Suitable pH values can be determined by the skilled person by simple routine experimentation.

- the cogels of the present invention possess a remarkable property as compared with well-known acidic components such as silica-alumina and zeolites in that they enable the hydrogenation metals as described above to be incorporated into the cogel itself.
- cobalt or nickel may be present as divalent metallic element in the cogel.
- all or part of these metals can be converted into a catalytically active phase. This can be done, e.g., by means of reduction or sulfidation, for instance when the catalyst is sulfided under reducing conditions prior to use.

- the catalyst may comprise support materials, e.g., alumina, silica, silica-alumina, silica-magnesia, zirconia, titania, silica-zirconia, silica-titania, clays, molecular sieves, aluminophosphates, and mixtures of these materials.
- support materials can consist of matrix materials which function as binder for the cogel, thus improving the attrition resistance of the catalyst particles, or as filler material, acting as diluent of the cracking activity of the cogel, thus making it possible to regulate the cracking activity of the catalyst.
- these support materials can also add a catalytic activity of their own to the catalyst according to the invention.
- the inco ⁇ oration of silica-alumina or a molecular sieve component into the catalyst composition will add a specific cracking activity to the catalyst composition.
- the amount of support material which is present in the catalyst composition according to the invention will depend on its function.
- Support materials are generally present in the catalyst of the present invention in an amount of 5 - 90 wt%, calculated on the weight of the catalyst composition.
- catalysts are envisaged containing 10 - 60 wt% of the cogel, 1-45 wt% of hydrogenation metal component, and the balance a support material acting as binder/filler.
- Suitable support materials acting as binder/filler matrix materials are, for example, alumina, silica, titania, and zirconia, with alumina generally being especially suitable.

If these types of catalytically active support materials are present, they preferably are present in an amount of 10 - 80 wt%, calculated on the weight of the catalyst composition, more preferably in an amount of 20 - 50 wt%. Of course, catalysts comprising two types of support materials are also envisaged in the present invention.
- the catalyst can further contain other components such as phosphorus.
- phosphorus can be incorporated into the catalyst in a suitable manner by contacting the catalyst during any one of its formative stages with an appropriate quantity of a phosphorus-containing compound, e.g., phosphoric acid.
- the catalyst can be impregnated with an impregnating solution comprising phosphorus in addition to any other components. If the catalyst according to the invention contains phosphorus, this compound preferably is present in an amount of 0.5 - 10 wt%, calculated as P 2 O 5 , based on the weight of the catalyst composition.

- Preparation of the catalyst according to the invention can be prepared in several ways. For instance, it is possible to extrude the cogel into particles, calcine the extrudates, and impregnate the calcined extrudates with an impregnating solution containing salts of the hydrogenation metals to be introduced, optionally in combination with other components such as phosphoric acid and/or compiexing agents known in the art.
- the cogel can be mixed with other support materials which, as explained above, may have their own catalytic activity, whereupon this mixture can be extruded and the resulting extrudates calcined.
- the calcined extrudates can then be impregnated as described above.
- cogels containing hydrogenation metals of their own can also be used in the catalyst according to the invention.
- the hydrogenation metals can be added, e.g., during the preparation of the cogel, resulting in their incorporation into the cogel. While it may be that the catalyst contains only those hydrogenation metals introduced via the cogel, it is also possible to incorporate other, additional hydrogenation metals into the catalyst composition. Furthermore, part or all of the hydrogenation metals can be incorporated as counter-ions of the cogel, to counterbalance the cogel's negative charge. It will be evident to the skilled person that it is also possible to combine the different aspects of the processes described above.
- a portion of the hydrogenation metals can be introduced via impregnation, while another portion is mixed with the cogel before it is formed into a support, or a portion of the hydrogenation metals is incorporated into the catalyst composition by way of the cogel, while another portion is added to the catalyst composition by impregnation of the shaped support.
- the catalyst particles may have many different shapes.
- the suitable shapes include spheres, cylinders, rings, and symmetric or asymmetric polylobes, for instance tri- and quadrulobes.
- the particles usually have a diameter in the range of 0.5 to 10 mm, and their length likewise is in the range of 0.5 to 10 mm.
- the catalyst contains non-noble Group VIII metals and/or Group VIB metais as hydrogenation metals, it is preferably sulfided prior to use. This involves converting the metal components in the catalyst to their sulfided form.
- the sulfiding can be done by means of processes known to the skilled person, e.g., by contacting the catalyst in the reactor at rising temperature with hydrogen and a sulfurous feed, or with a mixture of hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide. If the catalyst contains a Group VIII noble metal, there is no need for sulfiding as a rule, and a reducing step, e.g., with hydrogen, will suffice.
- the cogel contains hydrogenation metals such as cobalt or nickel, these will be freed from the cogel by sulfidation. Because the hydrogenation metals are distributed homogeneously through the cogel, the hydrogenation metals will be distributed homogeneously over the catalyst composition after sulfidation.
- the catalysts according to the invention can be used in virtually ail hydroprocessing processes to treat a plurality of feeds under wide-ranging reaction conditions, e.g., at temperatures in the range of 200° to 440°C, hydrogen pressures in the range of 5 to 300 bar, and space velocities (LHSV) in the range of 0.05 to 10h "1 .
- hydroprocessing in this context encompasses all processes in which a hydrocarbon feed is reacted with hydrogen at elevated temperature and elevated pressure.
- hydrocracking processes include hydrodesulfurization, hydrodenitrogenation, hydrodemetallization, hydrodearomatization, hydroisomerization, hydrodewaxing, hydrocracking, and hydrocracking under mild pressure conditions, which is commonly referred to as mild hydrocracking.

- H 2 /oil ratio in the range of 300 to 2000 Nl/I.
- the conditions selected are such as will give a conversion of at least 70 wt%.
- conversion in this context refers to the weight, in per cent, of obtained product with a boiling point below 391 °C (where applicable, this weight is corrected by taking into account the weight of the portion of the feedstock which already boils below 391 °C) vis-a-vis the weight of the feedstock employed.
- An example of a catalyst according to the invention which is suitable for use in hydrocracking to produce middle distillates is a catalyst comprising 3 - 40 wt% of hydrogenation metals, preferably comprised of a combination of Ni and Mo or W, 1 - 60 wt% of cogel, preferably 10 - 50 wt%, 3 - 55 wt% of zeolite, preferably 10 - 50 wt%, and the balance alumina.
- An example of a catalyst according to the invention which is suitable for the production of diesel by way of hydrocracking comprises a Group VIB hydrogenation metal component, a non-noble Group VIII hydrogenation metal component, the cogel of the present invention in combination with a Y-zeolite with a unit cell size in the range of 2.400-2.480 nm and preferably in the range of 2.415 - 2.455 nm.

- the conditions selected are such as will give a conversion of at least 20 wt%. The definition of conversion is the same as that given above.
- An example of a catalyst according to the invention which is suitable for use in mild hydrocracking to produce middle distillates is a catalyst comprising 3 - 40 wt%, preferably 10 - 40 wt%, of hydrogenation metal components, which preferably are a combination of Ni and Mo or W, 5 - 75 wt% of a cogel of the present invention, preferably 15 - 50 wt%, and 0 - 95 wt%, preferably 5 - 50 wt%, of alumina binder.
- the catalysts according to the present invention are also very suitable for use in hydroisomerization, more particularly for the difunctional hydroisomerization of long chain paraffins.
- waxes are molecules that have a negative effect on the quality of diesel fuels and lube oils.
- the wax molecules tend to crystallize at unacceptably high temperatures, so rendering the diesel unsuitable for fuel applications during wintertime.
- waxes will mainly affect the viscosity. Hence, these molecules must be removed.
- Two ways to achieve this are known in the literature, namely cracking the molecules to lower boiling molecules and isomerization of the molecules to isoparaffins.
- a (hydro)cracking dewaxing catalyst will by nature convert some of the feedstock, namely the n-paraffins, to products outside the desired boiling range, thus limiting the attainable yields of middle distillate.
- a hydroisomerization process will convert the n- paraffins to isoparaffins, which have boiling points in the desired range but melting/crystallization points (i.e., cloud points) much lower than those of the n-paraffins.
- the catalyst according to the invention is also suitable for use in the hydroisomerization of wax-containing feedstocks.
- a catalyst contains a hydrogenation component consisting of one or more of Group VIB metal components and Group VIII metal components, more particularly, the Group VIII noble metals.
- the hydrogenation component is platinum, palladium, or a combination of the two.
- the presence of the cogel in the catalyst according to the invention is advantageous for the hydroisomerization of wax-containing feedstocks, because it has a combination of desirable properties.
- the low acidity of the cogel precludes hydrocracking of the product isoparaffins.
- the properties of the cogel are such that a good dispersion of the hydrogenation component is ensured.
- the effects of mass diffusion limitation are eliminated by controlling the properties of the support. It is preferred in this specific application to prevent hydrocracking through binder-support interactions by using a binder material which does not give rise to such interactions, e.g., silica or titania. Alternatively, it may be preferable to shape the cogel support without any binder whatsoever.
- a particularly preferred catalyst for use in hydroisomerisation is a catalyst comprising 0.1 - 2.0 wt% of platinum, palladium, or a mixture thereof, 1 - 99.9 wt%, preferably 10 - 50 wt%, of the cogel of the present invention, and 0 - 98.9 wt%, preferably 50 - 90 wt%, of silica, titania, or a mixture thereof.
