Abstract

A hydrogenation catalyst contains a hydrogenation catalyst carrier and an active hydrogenation component. The active hydrogenation component includes a Group VIB metal sulfide and a Group VIII metal compound, and the molar proportion of a substance of the Group VIII metal compound that interacts with the Group VIB metal sulfide to the total amount of the Group VIII metal compound is 60-100%. The hydrogenation catalyst has a higher active metal sulfurizing degree and a higher number of type II active centers, and can be applied to the hydrogenation treatment process of oil products such as distillate oils and residual oils.
