The catalyst layer satisfies the following conditions: (1) the pore volume of pores no larger than 5 m, as measured in accordance with a mercury intrusion technique, is 24000 mm.sup.3 or greater per L of volume of the substrate; and (2) a permeability coefficient measured by a Perm porometer is 0.6 m.sup.2 to 4.4 m.sup.2.

In the present disclosure, a heterogeneous nickel-based oligomerization catalyst in which nickel in the form of single atom is loaded on an Al-mesoporous silicate support by ion exchange and a method for producing the same, and a method for oligomerizing light olefins, specifically C4 olefins using the catalyst are described.

Provided are a low-temperature SCR catalyst for denitrating diesel vehicle exhaust, and preparation method thereof. The catalyst uses a molecular sieve as a carrier, and uses metallic elements such as copper and iron as active components. The catalyst preparation method comprises: preprocessing the molecular sieve; conducting multiple equal-volume impreparations; after impreparation, drying to dehydrate, and calcining; and finally pulping and coating to prepare the catalyst. The catalyst employs base metals such as copper and iron instead of precious metals as active components, thus reducing costs, being harmless to humans, and being environmentally friendly. The preparation method of the catalyst is simple and feasible with low requirements for raw materials, employs a repeated but small-quantity method of equal volume impregnation; and enables active ions to be dispersed more uniformly as compared with the existing conventional preparation methods, thus improving utilization and improving low-temperature catalytic activity and durability.

A catalyst structure that allows prevention of aggregation of fine particles of a functional substance, suppresses decrease of catalyst activity, and thus enables extension of the lifetime of the catalyst structure. A catalyst structure has a carrier that is formed from a zeolite-type compound and has a porous structure. The functional substance includes a first element that is at least one metallic element selected from the group consisting of cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), iron (Fe), and ruthenium (Ru), and at least one second element selected from the group consisting of metallic elements in group 1, group 2, group 4, group 7, and group 12 on the periodic table. The carrier has paths connected to each other. The functional substance is present in at least the paths of the carrier.

The present invention also provides a process for preparing the catalyst precursor composition. The present invention also relates to a catalyst composition and process of preparation thereof by using the catalyst precursor. More particularly, the present invention provides a catalyst composition suitable for converting hydrocarbon feeds to diesel range product.

According to one or more embodiments, a nano-sized, mesoporous zeolite particle may include a microporous framework comprising a plurality of micropores having diameters of less than or equal to 2 nm and a BEA framework type. The nano-sized, mesoporous zeolite particle may also include a plurality of mesopores having diameters of greater than 2 nm and less than or equal to 50 nm. The zeolite particles may be integrated into hydrocracking catalysts and utilized for the cracking of heavy oils in a pretreatment process.

According to one or more embodiments disclosed herein, a mesoporous zeolite may be made by a method comprising contacting an initial zeolite material with ammonium hexafluorosilicate to modify the framework of the initial zeolite material, and forming mesopores in the framework-modified zeolite material. The contacting may form a framework-modified zeolite material. The mesoporous zeolites may be incorporated into catalysts.

A hydrocracking catalyst having a support of a composite of mesoporous materials, molecular sieves and alumina, is used in the last bed of a multi-bed system for treating heavy crude oils and residues and is designed to increase the production of intermediate distillates having boiling points in a temperature range of 204? C. to 538? C., decrease the production of the heavy fraction (>538? C.), and increase the production of gasoline fraction (<204? C.). The feedstock to be processed in the last bed contains low amounts of metals and is lighter than the feedstock that is fed to the first catalytic bed.

The provided catalysts are composite materials formed of multicomponent metal oxide composites and inorganic solid acids with hierarchical pore structures. The inorganic solid acids have a hierarchical pore structure having micropores, mesopores and macropores. The metal composites can be mixed with or dispersed on surfaces or in pore channels of the inorganic solid acid and can catalyze the synthesis gas conversion to a C.sub.2-C.sub.4 light hydrocarbon product containing two to four carbon atoms. The single pass conversion of CO is 10%-60%. The selectivity of light hydrocarbon in all hydrocarbon products can be up to 60%-95%, wherein the selectivity of light olefins (C.sub.2.sup.?-C.sub.4.sup.?) is 50%-85%.
