-57- Abstract A process is disclosed for decarbonization- demetallization of a poor quality residual oil feed boiling above about 340°C (650°F) and comprising substantial Conradon carbon components to provide a higher grade of oil feed by contacting the poor quality oil feed with sorbent particle material containing one or more metal additives selected to catalyze the endothermic removal of coke with CO2. Sorbent decarbonization conditions are selected so that substantial quantities of carbonaceous material and metals are deposited on the sorbent in the decarbonizing zone. Sorbent material with metals and hydrocarbonaceous deposits is regenerated in the presence of an oxygen and carbon dioxide containing gas streams in separate sorbent regeneration zones at a temperature sufficiently elevated to remove residual coke to a desired low level. Regenerated sorbent particle material at an elevated temperature below about 815°C (1500°F) is recycled to the poor quality oil feed decarbonizing zone for contact with additional feed. A select metal additive is provided in the sorbent particle material in an amount sufficient to particularly catalyze the endothermic removal of coke in the presence of a carbon dioxide rich gas at a selected sorbent regeneration temperature. A sorbent particle composition suitable for use in the process comprises a kaolin clay containing one or more of the metal additives which may be introduced into the clay during the oil feed decarbonizing process or during sorbent manufacture. Metal additives include water soluble inorganic metal salts and hydrocarbon soluble organo-metallic compounds of a select group of metals.
