ABSTRACT:
A supported metal chelate catalyst, a method of preparing said catalyst, and a process of using said catalyst is disclosed. The catalyst is particularly useful in the treatment of a sour petroleum distillate or fraction to remove mercaptans contained therein. In preparing the catalyst, a solid adsorptive support is contacted with a solution of a metal chelate. The resulting composite is thereafter contacted at an elevated temperature with a substituted ammonium compound.
In one embodiment, the metal chelate, cobalt phthalocyanine monosulfonate, is contacted with the adsorptive support, activated charcoal, raised to a temperature of about 100.degree. C., and then contacted with the substituted ammonium compound, dimethylbenzylalkylammonium chloride. In another embodiment, the catalyst of the invention can be contacted with a mercaptan-containing petroleum distillate in admixture with an oxidizing agent and an alkaline solution to convert the mercaptans to innocuous disulfide.
