ABSTRACT:
A process for hydrotreating middle distillate fraction petroleum feed stocks wherein hydrogen requirements for the hydrotreater are reduced by first passing the feed stock and steam to a steam hydroconversion zone over a dual function catalyst comprising molybdenum on a chromium supported on ferric oxide support or on a high surface area alumina support. In the steam hydroconversion zone a portion of the feed reacts with the steam to produce hydrogen via a steam reforming reaction. This hydrogen is used in situ to saturate a substantial portion of the olefins and remove some of the sulfur compounds present in the feed stock, thereby partially refining same. The partially refined feed is then passed to a hydrotreating zone for further treatment with greatly reduced hydrogen requirements in said hydrotreating zone.
