ABSTRACT:
A process for improving the color and oxidation stability of feed characterized as an admixture of liquid hydrocarbon compounds, inclusive of fused multi-ring aromatic and hydroaromatic hydrocarbons. This feed, which boils within a range of from about 224.degree. C. to about 538.degree. C. and contains moderate to high concentrations of organic sulfur and organic nitrogen compounds, is (1) hydrotreated over a hydrotreating catalyst at hydrotreating conditions, or (2) hydrotreated over a hydrotreating catalyst at hydrotreating conditions and the high boiling product therefrom hydrocracked over a hydrocracking catalyst at hydrocracking conditions, to obtain a low sulfur, low nitrogen product which is contacted as a feed in the presence of hydrogen, over a catalyst comprised of elemental iron and one or more alkali or alkaline-earth metals components at hydrogen partial pressure and temperature sufficient to improve product color, or stablize the product against light and oxygen degradation, or both.
