Summary:F-4386 PROCESS FOR DISPERSING OR REDISPERSING A GROUP VIII NOBLE METAL SPECIES ON A POROUS INORGANIC SUPPORT In a process for dispersing or redispersing relatively large crystallites of Group VIII noble metal species on a porous inorganic support, the supported species is contacted with nitric oxide, either alone or in admixture with a source of halogen such as Cl2, and thereafter any sorbed nitrogen oxide(s) and halogen are removed by purging with an inert gas. The treated metal-loaded catalyst demonstrates substantially increased benzene hydrogenation activity (BHA) compared to the same catalyst prior to treatment.
