ABSTRACT:
Heavy residual fractions are treated to remove vanadium and nickel contaminants by contact with zinc chloride and/or titanium tetrachloride under mild conditions of elevated temperature and pressure. The zinc chloride and titanium tetrachloride act as catalysts for the conversion of vanadium and nickel contaminants to insoluble metal-containing constituents removable by filtration from the product oil. The zinc chloride and titanium tetrachloride are recovered and recycled in the process.
