In one specific embodiment, the present invention comprises a process for desuliurizing gasolines containing both olefinic hydrocarbons and sulfur compounds which comprises subjecting the vapors of said gasolines mixed with relatively large amounts of hydrogen to contact with metal sulfide catalysts at temperatures within the approximate range of 250-450 C. and superatmospheric pressure of the order of 300 lbs. per square inch or higher while using relatively low liquid space velocities.
We have found that when using granular metal sulfides catalysts such as, for example, sulfides of nickel; copper, cobalt, iron; chromium. molybdenum, manganese, zinc, tungsten, etc., while observing the conditions or operation specified that cracked gasolines containing both sulfur compounds and olefins can be desulfurized to an extent so that they are readily. marketable without adversely affecting antiknock value. As will be shown in later examples a relatively large excess of hydrogen over that necessary for eiiecting ception of the process complete hydrogenation of the olefins and re sulfur is necessary, .and if antiknock minimized, the degree 01 olefin hydrogenation must be stopped at a definite point the composition of the gasolines to'suliur and olefinic content.

The catalytic materials may be employed on carriers or spacing agents of a relatively inert and usually siliceous refractory character. Besides frequently used siliceous carrying materials such as diatomaceous earth, clays. bentonites, montmorlllonites, both raw and acid treated, crushed refractories etc., other carriers such as properly prepared alumina, chromium oxide, titanium oxide, cerium oxide, thorium oxide and zirconium oxide, and even high melting point salts such as calcium phosphate, aluminum phosphate, etc. may be used.
A convenient method of preparing suitable catalysts consists in precipitating metal hydroxides or carbonates on a support suspended in a solution of a metal salt to which a precipitant is added, the deposited compound being later reduced to metal which is later sulturized, or the hydroxide or carbonate, etc. may be directly sulfurized without intermediate reduction. It is also comprised within the scope oi the invention by precipitating metal sulfides directly upon suitable granular supports or by incorporating metal sulfides with finely divided supporting materials followed by pelleting or otherwise forming of the particles of usablesize.

The catalyst employed in the run which furnished the above data was incompletely sulfurized at the outset of the run and therefore apparently had too high an activity so that exces sive hydrogenation of the olefins occurred with a corresponding drop in octane number as shown after the fifth period of operation. As the catalyst became more highly sulfurized the octane number in the produce was regained while the sulfur was still being reduced notably.

Several points can be noted from the above tabulation of data, particularly that it was possible to reduce the sulfur content from 1.17% to 0.21% with only 25% olefin hydrogenation, the octane number being one point higher than in the original charge, possibly due to the removal of sulfur compounds which had a pro knock tendency, and/or the selective hydrogenation of oleiins whose paraiiinic counterparts possess high antiknock value. The sulfur could be reduced to the negligible value of 0.05% with the loss of 3 octane number (72 to 69) with only 67% of olefin hydrogenation. The high susceptibility of the product to tetraethyl lead was also noticeable. In the runs given above the hydrogen excess was approximately 4 times that required for complete saturation of oleflns and reduction of sulfur to hydrogen sulfide.
We claim as our invention:
A catalytic hydrogenation process for eifecting substantial desulfurization of a gasoline con-' taining both olefinic hydrocarbons and sulfur compounds and hydrogenation of oleflnic hydrocarbons to an extent not materially reducing the anti-knock value of said gasoline, said process comprising subjecting vapors of said gasoline to contact with a heavy metal sulfide in the presence of an amount of hydrogen approximately four times that required for complete hydrogenation of said olefinic hydrocarbons and said removal of sulfur and at a temperature of approximately 350 0., under a hydrogen pres-
