Patent number: 10293332Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydrocracking catalyst for hydrocarbon oil comprising a support containing a framework-substituted zeolite-1 in which zirconium atoms and/or hafnium atoms form a part of a framework of an ultrastable y-type zeolite and a hydrogenative metal component carried thereon and a method for producing the same. The hydrocracking catalyst of the present invention makes it easy to diffuse heavy hydrocarbon oils such as VGO, DAO and the like into mesopores, is improved in a cracking activity and makes it possible to obtain a middle distillate at a high yield as compared with catalysts prepared by using zeolite comprising titanium and/or zirconium carried thereon.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2018Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignees: Saudi Arabian Oil Company, JGC Catalyst and Chemicals Ltd., Japan Cooperation Center, PetroleumInventors: Omer Refa Koseoglu, Adnan Al-Hajji, Ali Mahmoud Al-Somali, Ali H.

Patent number: 8366911Abstract: The present invention provides a method of producing a liquid fuel enabling production of middle distillate at a high yield from a feed oil containing paraffinic hydrocarbons having 20 to 100 carbon atoms as main components without losing the high cracking activity and also enabling provision of high quality gas oil included in the middle distillate. A feed oil containing paraffinic hydrocarbons having 20 to 100 carbon atoms as main components is subjected to hydrotreating in the present of a prespecified hydrotreating catalyst and under the conditions for hydrotreating including a temperature of 200 to 350° C., a liquid hourly space velocity of 0.1 to 5.0 h?1, and a partial pressure of hydrogen of 0.5 to 8 MPa to obtain an effluent oil, and then the effluent oil is fractionated to obtain middle distillate including a gas oil with a cetane number of 75 or over and a pour point of ?27.5° C. or below at a yield of 55% or over against a total weight of the feed oil.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2008Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignees: Nippon Oil Corporation, JGC Catalysts & Chemicals Ltd.Inventors: Hiroyuki Seki, Masahiro Higashi, Sumio Saito, Ryuzo Kuroda, Takashi Kameoka
