System for producing a crude product, comprising: an upstream contacting
zone; one or more catalysts in the upstream contacting zone, the one or
more catalysts comprising a first catalyst, the first catalyst having,
per gram of first catalyst, 0.0001 grams to 0.06 grams of: one or more
metals from Column 6 of the Periodic Table, one or more compounds of one
or more metals from Column 6 of the Periodic Table, calculated as weight
of metal, or mixtures thereof; a downstream contacting zone positioned
downstream of the upstream contacting zone; and one or more catalysts in
the downstream contacting zone, the one or more catalysts comprising a
second catalyst, the second catalyst having, per gram of second catalyst,
at least 0.02 grams of: one or more metals from Column 6 of the Periodic
Table, one or more compounds of one or more metals from Column 6 of the
Periodic Table, calculated as weight of metal, or mixtures thereof,
wherein the total content of Column 6 metal(s), per gram of second
catalyst, is greater than the total content of Column 6 metal(s) in the
first catalyst.
