PREPARATION OF ALUMINA CATALYST SUPPORTS AND NiMo/Al2O3 CATALYSTS
Several alumina catalysts were prepared to investigate effects of catalyst preparation variables on pore structure, including sintering time and temperature, acid type, and fiber type and loading. Each catalyst was characterized with a porosimeter and sorptometer in terms of pore size distribution, average pore diameters, pore volumes, densities and surface area. Bimodal NiMo catalysts were effectively prepared without losing surface area by using a combined method of coextrusion and fiber incorporation.
