Then, a third impregnation solution containing gelatin and the active metal component is introduced, and the third impregnation solution is converted into a gel state through a cooling solidification treatment by utilizing the low-temperature solidification property of the gelatin, and can be mostly enriched in the macropores of the alumina carrier, so as to introduce the active metal component to the specific position, and after drying treatment, type II active centers with higher activity are formed. Through the above-mentioned mode, the distribution of type I active centers and type II active centers in the pores of the catalyst is regulated, and the obtained hydroprocessing catalyst exhibits good activity and stability in the hydroprocessing process of catalytic diesel, coking diesel and other secondary processed oil products.
