Abstract

The catalytic transformations occurring in petroleum-derived asphaltene with CoMo loaded alumina-based catalysts were studied at 40°-420°C. Residual hydrogen as a qualitative measure of the hydrogen remaining in the sample and second moment, which is sensitive to molecular mobility, were obtained as a function of temperature. Moderate interaction of the metal oxide with the support material brought an intermediate reduction state having high HDS performance. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 12th Saudi Arabia-Japan Symposium on Catalysts in Petroleum Refining & Petrochemicals (Dhahran, Saudi Arabia 12/15-16/2002).
