N2 - A series of nickel molybdenum supported on USY, beta, MCM-41, and amorphous silica alumina based catalysts was prepared for hydrocracking of vacuum gas oil and dematallized oil blend. A reference commercial catalyst was employed for comparison purposes. Prepared catalysts were characterized by XRD, TPR, TPD, and N2 sorption analyzer. Some co-relation was observed between catalysts performance and sphysico-chemical properties of the prepared catalysts. All prepared catalysts showed better hydrodesulphurization activity than the commercial catalyst. NiMo-MCM-41 showed highest hydrogenation activity amongst all tested catalysts. The prepared catalysts had relatively similar hydrocracking activity to the commercial catalyst. However, NiMo-MCM-41 catalyst performed better by achieving 30% overall conversion as compared to 27% achieved by the commercial catalyst. All tested catalysts were diesel selective catalyst with slight variations.
