Abstract In order to meet the dual challenges of low sulfur and low aromatic quality requirements for diesel products, high-performance active phase construction and high-dispersed active phase stabilization technologies were innovatively developed to prepare diesel hydrogenation catalysts，which has high-activity and high-stability and their stability has been improved by more than 40% with the reference of catalyst in the production of National Ⅵ clean diesel. Meanwhile, utilizing the reaction patterns of hydrogenation saturation of monocyclic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons，the ultra-deep dehydrogenation and de-aromatization dual-zone composite diesel hydrogenation process (RTS-Apro) was developed, which solves the problem of industrial plants being unable to achieve long-term operation with ultra-deep desulfurization and multi-aromatic ring saturation in conventional process, the capable of long-term production of automotive diesel with a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) mass fraction below 2.5% can be achieved. It successfully resolved the technical challenge of achieving both ultra-deep desulfurization and deep saturation of PAHs in industrial units. By introducing a small amount of hydrogen gas to disrupt the dissolution equilibrium of H2S, the dual-zone composite liquid phase diesel hydrogenation process (SLHT) was developed, which solves the difficulty of ultra-deep desulfurization in diesel hydrogenation process being inhibited by H2S, and can produce diesel with the sulfur mass fraction of below 3 μg/g which meeting the quality standard of National Ⅵ at low energy consumption mode for long-term operation. Diesel hydrogenation catalyst and technology have enabled refining enterprises in a low-cost, high-efficiency, and long-term stability methods to produce diesel meeting National Ⅵ standards. This provides reliable technological support for the rapid upgrade of diesel quality in China.
