Ni–Co–W–B, Ni–W–B and Co–W–B catalysts were prepared by chemical reduction method and showed high activity in the HDO of cyclopentanone. Co–W–B had higher thermal stability than Ni–Co–W–B and Ni–W–B catalyst. The conversion of cyclopentanone could be high to 96.6% with a cyclopentanol selectivity of 0.4% and a deoxygenation rate of 95.4%. The HDO activity of the catalyst was related to its thermal stability, surface area, hydrogen supplying ability and Brönsted acid sites.
