Abstract
A catalyst obtained by admixing red mud with alumina or/and an alumina-containing substance, optionally adjusting the water content of the admixture and/or adding an organic binder to the admixture, kneading and shaping the admixture into pellets having suitable size and shape, and calcining the pellets at 600.degree. to 1,100.degree. C. The catalyst has a high compression strength and can, when used in the hydrodemetallization of hydrocarbons, achieve a high rate of demetallization and a low yield of low boiling fractions. The rate of demetallization is enhanced when the process is carried out using a hydrogen feed containing hydrogen sulfide.
