A single-pot method of producing a hydrodesulfurization catalyst by hydrothermally treating a hydrothermal precursor that includes a silica source, a structural directing surfactant, an aqueous acid solution, and metal precursors that contain active catalyst materials is provided. The hydrodesulfurization catalyst includes a catalyst support having SBA-15 and preferably titanium, wherein the active catalyst materials are homogenously deposited on the catalyst support. Various embodiments of said method and the hydrodesulfurization catalyst are also provided.

The present invention concerns a process for the desulphurization of a gasoline cut containing sulphur-containing compounds, olefins and diolefins, comprising at least the following steps: a) fractionating the gasoline in order to recover a light gasoline cut LCN and a first heavy gasoline cut HCN; b) carrying out a first step for desulphurization of the first heavy gasoline cut HCN; c) partially condensing the first desulphurization effluent obtained from step b) in a manner such as to produce a gaseous phase essentially constituted by hydrogen and H.sub.2S and a liquid hydrocarbon phase HCN comprising dissolved H.sub.2S; d) separating the liquid hydrocarbon phase HCN into an intermediate gasoline cut MCN and a second heavy gasoline cut HHCN; e) carrying out a second step for desulphurization of the second heavy gasoline cut

A process for hydrotreating coker kerosene is described. Instead of a post treat reactor, a smaller trim reactor zone which operates at a lower pressure than the post treat reactor is used downstream of the product stripper. The trim reactor uses a noble metal catalyst to reduce the BI of the stripped product to less than about 150, and desirably in the range of about 50 to about 100.

This invention relates to a method for reducing the content of sulfide-type compounds of formula R1-SR2, with R1 and R2 selected from among the methyl (CH.sub.3) and ethyl (C.sub.2H.sub.5) radicals, of a gasoline that contains diolefins, monoolefins, and sulfur. The method implements a first catalytic step for selective hydrogenation of diolefins at a temperature of between 60 C. and 150 C. and then a step for heating the effluent that is obtained from the first step with a temperature difference T of between 10 C. and 100 C. and a second catalytic step on the effluent that is heated in such a way as to produce an effluent that has a content of sulfide-type compounds of formula R1-SR2, with R1 and R2 selected from among the methyl (CH3) and ethyl (C2H5) radicals, lower than that of the starting gasoline.
