Abstract
A catalyst composition for the hydrotreatment of hydrocarbon oils is disclosed. The composition comprises at least one metal compound having hydrogenating activity belonging to a Group VIB or Group VIII carried on a carrier comprising 2-35% by weight of zeolite and 98-65% by weight of alumina or an alumina-containing substance, wherein, (A) said alumina or alumina-containing substance (1) has a mean pore diameter of 60-125 angstrom and (2) contains the pore volume of which the diameter falls within .+-.10 angstrom of the mean pore diameter of 70-98% of the total pore volume, (B) said zeolite (3) has a mean particle size of 6 .mu.m or smaller and (4) contains particles of which the diameter is 6 .mu.m or smaller of 70-98% of all zeolite particles. It has both high hydrodesulfurization and high cracking capabilities at the same time, and can selectively crack the heavy fractions which have once been hydrotreated, yielding lighter fractions.
