Effect of 2,6-Bis-(1-hydroxy-1,1-diphenyl-methyl) Pyridine as Organic Additive in Sulfide NiMoP/γ-Al₂O₃ Catalyst for Hydrodesulfurization of Straight-Run Gas Oil.

The effect of 2,6-bis-(1-hydroxy-1,1-diphenyl-methyl) pyridine (BDPHP) in the preparation of NiMoP/γ-Al₂O₃ catalysts have been investigated in the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of straight-run gas oil. The γ-Al₂O₃ support was modified by surface impregnation of a solution of BDPHP to afford BDPHP/Ni molar ratios (0.5 and 1.
