Removal of sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen from heavy gas oils is affected by the chemical composition of supported molybdate catalysts. Cobalt and nickel, when added to these catalysts, have a promoting effect on these reactions. However, the relative rates always follow the same trend; that is, the hydrodesulfurization is the fastest, followed by hydrodenitrogenation and hydrodeoxygenation.
