Here R - coefficient of diffuse reflectance, Cacid - the
concentration of acid sites, Cpoison is the concentration of
poisoned with n-butylamine sites, f (R) and f (R) poison Kubelka-Munk functions at the maximum for the band of
acid form of the corresponding indicator before and after
the poisoning of surface acid sites.
To evaluate the catalytic properties of samples,
the hydrocarbon feedstock of Fergana refinery is
used: kerosene fraction (boiling point 398-513 K), the
diesel fraction (boiling temperature - 433-633 K) and a
deasphalted oil fraction (the boiling point - > 773 K). The
amount of sulfur in the hydrocarbon feedstock before and
after hydrogenation was determined by combustion of
samples,with the capture of produced SO2, its oxidation to
SO3 followed by titration. Quantitative determination of
the polyaromatic compounds (PAC) in the feed oil and the
hydrogenation was carried out by adsorption separation
on silica gel, followed by weighing the separated fraction
with a refractive index nD 20 more than 1.55. Activity in
hydrodesulfurization and hydrogenation of polyaromatic
substances in thecomposition of asphalt-free residue and
kerosene fraction is studied on continuous-flow setting
at pressure 4 P and temperature 573 -593 K, of diesel
fraction at pressure 5 P and temperature 633 K. Activity
of the prepared catalysts is estimated on relative decrease
in the content of sulfur and concentration of polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons in hydrogenation, obtained after
process on continuous- flow setting, in comparison with
raw materials.
Calculated
componential
composition
of
hydrodesulfurization catalysts: I 1% Ni, 3% CoO, 12%
MoO3; II 4% Ni, 12% MoO3; III 4% , 12% MoO3. Next
catalysts were used for hydrogenation of polyaromatic
compounds: IV 1.7% Ni, 4.2% CoO, 17.8% MoO3; V
6% Ni, 18% MoO3 and VI 6% , 18% MoO3.
Catalysts were prepared by two methods using
solutions of active ingredients stabilized with H3PO4.
Method 1. Dry mixes of composition: GOA+K (12%),
+ (25%) and G+ (35%) + K (12%) are peptized with
the diluted solution N3, then the necessary quantity of
one of the solutions of active components is added. Catalytic
mass is carefully mixed, molded in the form of extruded
cylinders of about 4 mm in diameter and 5-6 mm in length
and trilobes of the same dimensions. The obtained granules
were dried and calcined at 673 and 823 K.
Method 2. At first, an extrusion molded aluminakaolin carriers (similar to catalysts of the method 1) from
the peptized with nitric acid mixes of the composition:
carrier AK-1 GOA+K (12%) carrier AK-1, GOA+ (35%) +
(12%) carrier AK-2 and + (25%) carrier AK-3. The
formed carriers are calcined at 823 K, after cooling they
are impregnated with one of joint solutions. To obtain the
catalysts of hydrogenation of the composition IV VI, the
procedure of impregnation is repeated after intermediate
calcinations at 473 K. Final calcinations temperature of
all catalysts was either 673 or 823 K. In tables 1 and 2 the
physical-chemical characteristics of carriers and catalysts
are given. According to results of chemical analysis, the
fluctuations from sample to sample is 7-12%.

to Ni4 peaks 24000-23000 nearby 13600-13200 cm1
[14-16] corresponded. At transition from + to carrier
GOA+AO+K and further to GOA+ relative intensity of
peaks of absorption of molybdates decreased. Structures
with parameters of electronic spectra close to massive
phases of Ni4 and 4 appeared during the
calcinations of hydrated molybdates not entered into
reaction with the carrier (able 3, Fig. 1, curves 6- 7, 9-10).
Weak inflections nearby 14000 and 13000 cm1
indicate a presence of insignificant quantity of superficial
structures of nickel-alumina-molybdates and nickelmolybdates. In the spectrum of catalyst IV-1/GOA+K
(Fig.1, curve 3) the wide absorption peak was observed
at 14200 cm1 from partially hydroxylated ions Nih2+ which
are bonded simultaneously with a surface of alumina
hydroxide and anions 42 [12, 14, 16]. Shoulder

Conclusion
Based on these results we can conclude that:
1. A new approach to the preparation of hydroprocessing
catalysts, which is based on the use of kaolin, and
the spent adsorbent in the carrier as components
of catalysts for the synthesis of structures
targeted oxide precursors, which are active in the
hydrodesulfurization and hydrogenation reactions.
2. The effect of additives - spent adsorbent and kaolin
on the formation of porous structure, acid-base
properties of the carriers and the coordination state
of the active components is established. Introduction
of the spent adsorbent is the best way to increase the
share of wide pores, lowered acidity of carrier and
allowed us to obtain a uniform distribution of Co, Ni
and Mo on the catalyst granule.
3. Comparison
of
hydrodesulfurization
and
hydrogenation activity of series catalysts allows a
positive effect to be established with introduction of
the additives - kaolin and spent adsorbent into the
composition of catalyst, and combining the promoters
Co and Ni. Optimal effect is achieved when the spent
adsorbent content of 30-35% and a synthesis method
based on impregnation.
4. Within this approach can be prepared catalysts for
deep processing of oil fractions for the production
of environmentally friendly products, including
fuels that meet high quality standards for sulfur
content and aromatics. Catalysts containing the
spent adsorbent as additives can also be used for
purification of natural gas from mercaptans, as well
as methane conversion.
