Abstract: A highly active catalyst RLF-20 for white oil production is developed by optimizing carrier, metal ratio, metal loading, and using metal dispersion technology. A pilot plant test was done using KN4010 rubber filling oil from Kelamay refinery of CNPC as the feed. The results reveal that the product meets the quality standard for food grade white oil at LHSV, 25% higher than the original catalyst RLF-10W. The sulfur resistance of RLF-20 is also improved. The aromatics removal rate in the early stage reaches 87%, then decreases to 85% after 7 days running, only 2.3% less. Under the same conditions, No. 68 rubber filling oil with more than 10% aromatics from HangZhou Refinery of SINOPEC was used to do the stability test. The 1 000 h stability test demonstrates that small changes in UV adsorption at 275 nm only from 0.4 in the initial stage to ~0.6 are observed, which indicate a good stability of RLF-20 for food grade white oil production.
