The catalyst is granular and has porous surface with average specific surface area of 550 meter square/g.    USE - Multi-metal supported catalyst for hydrogenation of liquid chloroform.    ADVANTAGE - The multi-metal supported catalyst has high catalyzing activity and high selectivity.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a method for preparing multi-metal supported catalyst, which involves:    (A) pre-treating activated carbon support by adding certain amount of activated carbon to 0.1-0.5 mole/L hydrochloric acid and heating solid-liquid mixture to 30-70 degrees C;    (B) boiling mixture for 2-3 hours and then filtering mixture;    (C) washing filter residue multiple times with distilled water;    (D) washing activated carbon with 0.1-0.5 mole/L ammonia;    (E) stirring mixture and heating solid-liquid mixture to 30-70 degrees C;    (F) boiling for 2-3 hours;    (G) filtering mixture and then washing with distilled water until the eluate is neutral;    (H) washing activated carbon with hot acid and distilled water;    (I) agitating mixture for 30 minutes;    (J) removing lotion by decantation and adding distilled water to the activated carbon;    (K) cleaning mixture multiple and removing undetectable chloride and ammonium ions;    (L) cleaning the activated carbon with 15-30 wt.% hydrogen peroxide;    (M) soaking mixture at room temperature for 2-4 hours;    (N) filtering mixture and washing residue with distilled water until the eluate is neutral;    (O) adding hydrogen peroxide to activated carbon and drying in vacuum oven at 60 degrees C for 24 hours;    (P) storing activated carbon in vacuum desiccator;    (Q) adding polyvinylpyrrolidone in water and carrying out ultrasonic treatment until mixture is completely dissolved to obtain 1-5 wt.% polyvinylpyrrolidone solution;    (R) weighing soluble palladium, ruthenium, copper and nickel salts and adding to the solution of polyvinylpyrrolidone;    (S) carrying out ultrasonic treatment for 30 minutes;    (T) completely dissolving metal ions;    (U) adding 10 wt.% aqueous ammonia to adjust the pH of the mixed solution at 8-10;    (V) stirring mixed solution and drop-wise adding 50 wt.% hydrazine hydrate;    (W) stirring and heating solution to 40-80 degrees C for 30-60 minutes to obtain dark gray suspension;    (X) stirring obtained suspension based on the amount of activated carbon supported with metal active component;    (Y) adding pre-treated activated carbon for 30-60 minutes;    (Z) allowing solution to stand for 12-24 hours at room temperature;    (() transferring to a vacuum oven and slowly evaporating at 40-60 degrees C until the liquid is dry activated charcoal; and    (\) drying mixture to constant weight;    ()) drying the activated carbon into closed atmosphere furnace under hydrogen atmosphere;    (^) carrying out reduction at 130-160 degrees C for 1-3 hours;    (_) heating again to 220-270 degrees C for 1-3 hours; and    (`) continuously feeding hydrogen gas and allowing solution to cool to room temperature to obtain dark solid catalyst.
