Title: Innovations of Mark S. Thompson

Introduction

Mark S. Thompson is a notable inventor based in Houston, TX. He has made significant contributions to the field of hydrotreating catalysts, holding 2 patents that showcase his innovative approaches. His work primarily focuses on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of catalysts used in various chemical processes.

Latest Patents

Thompson's latest patents include a method for preparing high activity silica supported hydrotreating catalysts. This non-aqueous method involves reacting a mixture of Mo(Cl).sub.5 and Ni(H.sub.2 O.sub.6)Cl.sub.2 and/or Co(H.sub.2 O).sub.6 Cl.sub.2 in the presence of acetonitrile. The process culminates in impregnating a dried silica support with the mixture, followed by drying and sulfiding before its application in hydrotreating processes. Another significant patent is for a hydrodenitrification catalyst. This method enhances the activity of hydrotreating catalysts containing Group VIII and/or Group VIB metals by incorporating zero-valence molybdenum and/or tungsten carbonyls into the catalyst support. The process involves mixing a liquid mixture containing metal carbonyls, dienes, trienes, or monoaromatics, and free sulfur with a dried catalyst support, followed by heating until metal carbonyl conversion to metal disulfide is substantially complete.
