A process is described for reducing the total acid number of a refinery feedstock. A refinery feedstock containing naphthenic acids is contacted with an effective amount of solid catalyst that has been pretreated with an aqueous caustic base, for a period of time sufficient to neutralize at least a portion of the naphthenic acids in the feedstock. Thereafter, the aqueous phase is separated from the neutralized refinery feedstock.

1. A process for reducing the total acid number of a refinery feedstock containing naphthenic acids, the process comprising contacting the refinery feedstock containing naphthenic acids with an effective amount of solid catalyst that has been pretreated with a caustic base for a period of time sufficient and at a temperature of at least 200 C to neutralize at least a portion of the naphthenic acids in the refinery feedstock to produce a treated product having reduced total acid number. 2. The process of claim 1, which further includes adding an emulsion breaking additive to the treated mixture to minimize emulsion formation. 3. The process of claim 2, wherein the emulsion breaking additive is triethanolamine, ethoxylated phenol resins, zinc chloride, or polymerized trithionylamine. 4. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst is a single or a group of catalysts which exhibit basic properties. 5. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst comprises at least one metal oxide including one or more materials selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide, aluminum oxide, zinc aluminates, and layered double hydroxides including magnesium/aluminum. 6. The process of claim 1, wherein the refinery feedstock contains carboxylic acids. 7. The process of claim 1, wherein the caustic base is sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. 8. The process of claim 1, wherein the refinery feedstock is supplied with a liquid hourly space velocity in the range of from 0.1 to 10 h−1. 9. The process of claim 1, wherein the refinery feedstock is supplied with a liquid hourly space velocity in the range of from 0.5 to 4 h−4. 10. The process of claim 1, wherein the refinery feedstock is supplied with a liquid hourly space velocity in the range of from 1 to 2 h−4. 11. The process of claim 1, wherein the neutralization reaction is conducted at a temperature in the range of from 200 to 600° C. 12. The process of claim 1, wherein neutralization reaction is conducted at a temperature in the range of from 300 to 400° C. 13. The process of claim 1, wherein neutralization reaction is conducted at a temperature in the range of from 300 to 350° C. 14. The process of claim 1, wherein neutralization reaction is conducted at a pressure in the range of from 1 to 20 Kg/cm2. 15. The process of claim 1, wherein neutralization reaction is conducted at a pressure in the range of from 1 to 10 Kg/cm2. 16. The process of claim 14, wherein the pressure is maintained by refinery feedstock pressure alone, without any supply of added overhead or blanketing gas. 17. The process of claim 1, wherein the pretreatment of the solid catalyst is carried out in situ in a neutralization vessel used for contacting the refinery feedstock by, before contacting the refinery feedstock, loading the solid catalyst in the neutralization vessel, passing the caustic base at a temperature and for a period of time effective for pretreatment, and then contacting the refinery feedstock with the solid catalyst that has been pretreated to neutralize naphthenic acids in the refinery feedstock. 18. The process of claim 1, wherein the pretreatment of the solid catalyst is carried out ex situ in a by contacting the solid catalyst in a separate vessel with the caustic base at a temperature and for a period of time effective for pretreatment, and loading the solid catalyst that has been pretreated into a separate vessel for contacting the refinery feedstock with the solid catalyst that has been pretreated to neutralize naphthenic acids in the refinery feedstock. 19. The process of claim 18, wherein the separate vessel for pretreatment of the solid catalyst is a batch vessel or a continuous tubular vessel. 20. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst comprises zinc oxide. 21. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst comprises aluminum oxide. 22. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst comprises zinc aluminates. 23. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst comprises layered double hydroxides including magnesium/aluminum. 24. The process of claim 1, wherein the solid catalyst comprises at least one metal oxide including one or more materials selected from the group consisting of zinc oxide, zinc aluminates, and layered double hydroxides including magnesium/aluminum.
