摘要
Naphthenic acids in crude oil are carboxylic acids characterized by one or more aliphatic or naphthenic rings having an alkyl group with a carboxylic acid group. The naphthenic acids produce atypical corrosion phenomena, given that they can cause a localized attack without the presence of water at 473-693 K, hindering the processing of such crude oils in refineries. Disclosed is a catalytic hydrogenation process that permits selective removal of naphthenic acids from heavy and extra heavy crude oils with a low production of hydrogen sulphides. The catalyst is formed by an aluminium and/or magnesium-aluminium spinel-type support having active Fe—Mo phases. The hydrogenation process using Fe and/or Mo catalysts surprisingly permits an acid number of 1 mg KOH/g to be reached in crude oils with TAN greater than 4 g KOH/g, reducing unwanted reactions and prolonging the life of the cataly
