Surface science models for CoMo hydrodesulfurization catalysts: Influence of the support on hydrodesulfurization activity

Characterization and Hydrodesulfurization Activity of CoMo Catalysts Supported on Boron-Doped Sol-Gel Alumina

TiO2-ZrO2 Binary Oxides for Effective Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts

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...

Development of Fen4/C And Fen2/C Catalysts for Hydrodesulfurization and Hydrodearomitization of Model Compounds of Heavy Oil

Two novel hydrodesulfurization (HDS) catalysts: FeN4/C and FeN2/C, were prepared using an impregnation-pyrolysis method. The two materials were investigated as catalysts for hydrodesulfurization (HDS) and hydrodearomitization (HDA) of model compounds. The turnover frequency of the two FeN catalysts is comparable to (FeN4/C) or even higher (FeN2/C) than that of MoNi/Al2O3. The FeN4/C catalyst al...

Solid State Synthesis and Characterization of Model Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts

Solid-state reactions of elemental sulfur with metallic cobalt and molybdenum powders were used to synthesize model catalysts for hydrodesulfurization (HDS). The resulting materials had a general stoichiometry of CozlMo,-,S2 with x between 0.025 and 0.3. The solid phases formed during synthesis and after exposure to typical HDS reaction conditions were identified by X-ray diffraction and select...

SBA-15 Mesoporous Silica as Catalytic Support for Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts—Review

SBA-15 is an interesting mesoporous silica material having highly ordered nanopores and a large surface area, which is widely employed as catalyst supports, absorbents, drug delivery materials, etc. Since it has a lack of functionality, heteroatoms and organic functional groups have been incorporated by direct or post-synthesis methods in order to modify their functionality. The aim of this art...
