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.

The invention concerns a method for rejuvenating an at least partially used catalyst originating from a hydroprocessing and/or hydrocracking process, the at least partially used catalyst being derived from a fresh catalyst comprising at least one group VIII metal (in particular, Co), at least one group VIB metal (in particular, Mo), an oxide support, and optionally phosphorus, the method comprising the steps: ⋅a) regenerating the at least partially used catalyst in a gas stream containing oxygen at a temperature between 300° C. and 550° C. so as to obtain a regenerated catalyst, ⋅b) then placing the regenerated catalyst in contact with phosphoric acid and an organic acid, each having acidity constant pKa greater than 1.5, ⋅c) performing a drying step at a temperature less than 200° C. without subsequently calcining it, so as to obtain a rejuvenated catalyst.

Bulk catalysts comprised of nickel, molybdenum, tungsten and titanium and methods for synthesizing bulk catalysts are provided. The catalysts are useful for hydroprocessing, particularly hydrodesulfurization and hydrodenitrogenation, of hydrocarbon feedstocks.

The present invention relates to a process and system for forming a hydrocarbon feedstock from a biomass material, and the hydrocarbon feedstock formed therefrom. The present invention also relates to a process and system for forming a bio-derived diesel fuel from a hydrocarbon feedstock, and the bio-derived diesel fuel formed therefrom, as well as intermediate treated hydrocarbon feedstocks formed during the process.

A method for desulfurizing crude oil and sulfur rich petroleum refinery fractions is disclosed. The method includes feeding the crude oil and sulfur rich petroleum refinery fractions to a reactor. An oxidation catalyst is added to the crude oil and sulfur rich petroleum refinery fractions. The crude oil and sulfur rich petroleum refinery fractions and the oxidation catalyst are stirred to form co-polymers of sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds. The co-polymers of sulfur-containing heterocyclic compounds are separated by filtration or by centrifugation.
