Abstract
A process of selectively hydrogenating an impurity in a feed containing hydrocarbons, such as, for example, an impurity selected from the group consisting of acetylene compounds, dienes, and mixtures thereof in a feed containing at least one monoolefin and the impurity wherein the impurity is hydrogenated selectively in the presence of a selective hydrogenation catalyst supported on a particulate support. The supported catalyst is supported on a mesh-like structure.

A process for selectively hydrogenating an impurity in a feed containing hydrocarbons, comprising:
- selectively hydrogenating said impurity in the presence of a selective hydrogenation catalyst supported on a particulate support, said supported catalyst being supported on a mesh structure, said mesh structure being a three-dimensional network formed of a plurality of layers of fibers that are oriented randomly in the layers.
A process for selectively hydrogenating an impurity in a feed containing hydrocarbons, comprising:
- selectively hydrogenating said impurity in the presence of a selective hydrogenation catalyst, said catalyst being coated onto a mesh structure, said mesh structure being a three-dimensional network formed of plurality of layers of fibers that are oriented randomly in the layers.
