Abstract
Apparatus for catalytic processes such as desulfurization of hydrocarbons comprises an upright reactor vessel containing at least one tray and catalytic support means for one or more catalyst beds; said support means, being permeable to fluids and impermeable to catalyst particles, are attached to the inner wall of the reactor vessel and are at least partly in the shape of a conical surface of a truncated cone converging downwardly to an aperture permeable to catalyst particles; located beneath each supporting means is a fluid permeable tray which is impermeable to catalyst particles and having an aperture permeable to catalyst particles. A method for loading said apparatus with catalyst by means of a carrier oil is also disclosed.
