A mild hydrocracking process for the hydrodemetallation (HDM), hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and hydroconversion (HC) of hydrocarbon feedstocks such as residuum feedstocks which provides increased conversion of the 1000.degree. F.+ hydrocarbon fraction to the 1000.degree. F.- fraction and increased yields of middle distillates is disclosed. The process utilizes a catalyst comprising about 2.0 to about 6.0 wt. % of an oxide of a Group VIII metal, about 12.0 to about 25.0 wt. % of an oxide of molybdenum and 0 to about 3.0 wt. % of an oxide of phosphorus supported on a porous alumina support containing about 4.0 to about 30 wt. % of silica.

Mild hydrocracking of heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks employing

A mild hydrocracking process for the hydrodemetallation (HDM), hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and hydroconversion (HC) of hydrocarbon feedstocks such as residuum feedstocks which provides increased conversion and increased yields of middle distillates is disclosed. The process utilizes a catalyst comprising about 1.0 to about 6.0 wt. % of an oxide of a Group VIII metal, about 12.0 to about 25.0 wt. % of an oxide of molybdenum and 0 to about 5.0 wt. % of an oxide of phosphorus supported on a porous alumina support containing about 0.1 to about 10.0 wt. % of lithium oxide.

Mild hydrocracking of heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks employing lithia

A mild hydrocracking process for the hydrodemetallation (HDM), hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and hydroconversion (HC) of hydrocarbon feedstocks such as residuum feedstocks which provides increased conversion of heavy hydrocarbons boiling above 1000.degree. F. into products boiling below 1000.degree. F. as well as increased yields of middle distillates is disclosed. The process utilizes a catalyst comprising about 1.0 to about 6.0 wt. % of an oxide of a Group VIII metal, about 12.0 to about 25.0 wt. % of an oxide of molybdenum and 0 to about 5.0 wt. % of an oxide of phosphorus supported on a porous support comprising precipitated alumina or silica-containing alumina and dealuminated Y-zeolite.
