Inhibition of the Hydrogenation and Hydrodesulfurization Reactions by Nitrogen Compounds over NiMo/Al2O3
نویسندگان
چکیده
The inhibiting effect of nitrogen compounds on the hydrogenation of aromatic compounds and on the hydrodesulphurization (HDS) of dibenzothiophene (DBT) and 4,6-dimethyl dibenzothiophene (4,6 DMDBT), has been systematically investigated over a commercial NiMo hydrotreating catalyst. Amongst the different nitrogen compounds considered, interestingly ammonia was found to have the strongest inhibition effect on hydrogenation as well as on hydrodesulfurization reactions. The inhibiting effects were found to increase in the order quinoline \ tetrahydroquinoline\ indole\ indoline\ ammonia for phenanthrene/tetralin hydrogenation and HDS reactions. The molecules with nitrogen atoms having higher negative Mulliken charges showed higher adsorption constants.

Titania-zirconia mixed oxide was developed as support for Mo, CoMo and NiMo catalysts. Synthesis was carried out using evaporation induced self assembly and modified sol-gel templating route. The samples were calcined in a temperature range of 400C to 600C. SEM and porosity analyses were used to ensure that the mesostructure is stable after Mo and promoter incorporation. Wide-angle XRD was used...
