The hydrocracking and hydroisomerization of n-heptane were studied over Ru/La-Y based catalyst, and as an experimental apparatus a CATATEST minipilot licensed by IFP was used in this study Co and Ni were used as promoters, so the effects of promoters impregnated into the prepared catalyst were observed. The results showed that the order of the magnitude of activity of each catalyst was Ni-Ru>Co-Ru>Ru-catalysts, and that the promoters Ni and Co increased the activity of hydrocracking and isomerization, and they had an inhibiting effect on the secondary splitting. Through an experiment on the deactivation of catalysts, it was confirmed that coke formation on the catalysts surface and sintering of active sites deactivated the catalysts. In a study of the turnover number of each catalyst used in hydrocracking, it was revealed that all of the reactions were structure-sensitive.
