Abstract

In the article, Ni-bentonite catalyst was synthesized by exchange method. Natural bentonite mineral and synthesized catalyst were studied by XRD, XRF, TGA/TDA, TEM, EDX-mapping (map), nitrogen adsorption-desorption at 196 °C, H2-TPD and NH3-TPD analysis methods. A new processing technology was introduced at the «Hydrocracking of heavy oil residues» (SPR-1) facility with the participation of fuel oil bentonite and Ni-bentonite catalysts. The catalytic efficiency of dispersed nickel catalyst in the hydrocracking process of fuel oil under optimal conditions (430 °C, 4.0 MPa) was studied. The results of the experiments are 47% from catalyst-free hydrocracking of fuel oil; 54.7% with bentonite addition; The yield of light colored petroleum products showed a corresponding increase to 67.1% when Ni-bentonite was used. Keywords: fuel oil; hydrocracking; bentonite; gasoline fraction; diesel fraction.
