Systems and methods for producing an isomerization product. One or more isomerization reactors comprising a catalyst may be used to process an isomerization feedstock comprising a primary n-paraffin reactant and hydrogen gas, and the isomerization reactor may be operated at a pressure parameter at which the partial pressure of the primary n-paraffin is within about 70% to about 130% of its equilibrium vapor pressure to isomerize the primary n-paraffin reactant.

An integrated catalytic process for upgrading a feed oil comprises the steps of introducing a catalyst precursor solution to a supercritical water (SCW) process unit, where the catalyst precursor solution comprises a catalyst precursor dissolved in liquid water; introducing a feed water to the SCW process unit; introducing the feed oil to the SCW process unit; treating the catalyst precursor solution, the feed water, and the feed oil in the SCW process unit to produce a SCW effluent, where the catalyst precursor is converted to catalyst particles; separating the SCW effluent in a separator unit to produce a SCW distillate product, a SCW residue product; introducing the SCW residue product to a slurry hydroprocessing unit, where the SCW residue product comprises the catalyst particles; treating the SCW residue product and the hydrogen gas in the slurry hydroprocessing unit to produce a product gas stream and an upgraded oil product.

A process for treating a feed oil in the presence of in situ produced catalyst particles comprising the steps of mixing the supercritical water feed with the pressurized precursor solution in a catalyst mixer to produce a supercritical water stream; withdrawing the supercritical water stream to a process line, where the catalyst precursor is converted to catalyst particles in the process line; mixing the supercritical water stream and the hot oil stream in the mixer to produce a mixed stream; introducing the mixed stream to a reactor; processing the heavy oil in the reactor in the presence of the catalyst particles to produce a reactor effluent; reducing a temperature of the reactor effluent to produce a cooled effluent; reducing a pressure of the cooled effluent to produce a depressurized effluent; and separating the depressurized effluent to produce a product gas, a product oil, and a product water.

A method of preparing hydrodesulfurization catalysts having cobalt and molybdenum sulfide deposited on a support material containing mesoporous silica. The method utilizes a sulfur-containing silane that dually functions as a silica source and a sulfur precursor. The method involves an one-pot strategy for hydrothermal treatment and a single-step calcination and sulfidation procedure. The application of the hydrodesulfurization catalysts in treating a hydrocarbon feedstock containing sulfur compounds to produce a desulfurized hydrocarbon stream is also specified.
