The present invention is directed to a hydroprocessing catalyst containing at least one catalyst support, one or more metals, optionally one or more molecular sieves, optionally one or more promoters, wherein deposition of at least one of the metals is achieved in the presence of a modifying agent.

Hydroprocessing catalyst and method of making the same

A process of upgrading a highly aromatic hydrocarbon feedstream comprising (a) contacting a highly aromatic hydrocarbon feedstream, having a normal paraffin content of greater than at least about 5 wt %, wherein a major portion of the feedstream has a boiling range of from about 300&#xb0; F. to about 800&#xb0; F. under catalytic conditions with a catalyst system, containing a hydrotreating catalyst, a hydrogenation/hydrocracking catalyst, and a dewaxing catalyst in a single stage reactor system, wherein the active metals in the hydrogenation/hydrocracking catalyst comprises from about 5%-30% by weight of nickel and from about 5%-30% by weight tungsten; and(b) wherein at least a portion of the highly aromatic hydrocarbon feedstream is converted to a product stream having a boiling range within jet or diesel boiling ranges.

Method of making high energy distillate fuels

The disclosure describes a high energy density jet fuel composition, having a smoke point about 18 mm as determined by ASTM D1322 and a thermal stability of no more than 25 mm Hg as determined by ASTM D 3241, and a method for making a jet fuel composition, wherein the net heat of combustion is determined by the aromatics content, cycloparaffins content, and normal plus or iso paraffins content in the jet fuel composition.

High energy distillate fuel composition and method of making the same

A process of upgrading a highly aromatic hydrocarbon feedstream comprising

A diesel fuel composition comprising a (1) sulfur content of less than 10 ppm; (2) a flash point of greater than 50&#xb0; C.; (3) a UV absorbance, A, of less than 1.5 as determined by the formula comprising+10()
