    Vanadium pentoxide supported on mesoporous SBA-15 catalysts with different vanadium loadings were studied in the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound. The catalytic activity was improved when SBA-15 framework was modified with Al and Ga as heteroatom substituting Si. Structural and textural characterization of the catalysts were performed by means of XRD, N2 adsorption, UV–Vis–DRS, XPS, NMR, TEM, Raman, TPR and Py-FTIR. UV–Vis– DRS and Raman demonstrated that highly dispersed vanadium pentoxide crystallites are responsible for the high activity in the sulfur removal. The high dispersion depends on the vanadium loading and on the nature of the support. The more acidic support allowed better dispersion of the vanadium species. The Ga modified support with an intermediate V/Si ratio of 1/30 was the most active catalyst for ODS of DBT, using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as oxidant and acetonitrile as solvent. 100% of DBT elimination was attained at a short time in mild conditions. Gallium and aluminum incorporation into the support modified successfully the nature of the SBA-15 surface by generating Bronsted and Lewis acidity. The interaction between the acid sites with the active vanadium sites improved the activity of the catalysts. The reusability of the catalysts indicates that vanadium oxide supported on mesoporous SBA-15 modified with Ga and Al are potential catalysts for the ODS of dibenzothiophene.

    Preparation of carbon nanotubes with hybrids nanostructure materials.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2017) Martínez , María Laura; Juárez , Juliana María; Gómez Costa, Marcos Bruno; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Juárez , Juliana María
    Carbon nanotubes (CNT's) are allotropes carbon, like diamond, graphite and fullerenes. There are different types of CNT's, depending on the type of the graphite layers, it can be single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT's) and multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT's). These nanomaterials show good physical properties such as their density, strength and thermal conductivity. The controllable synthesis of materials with the desired structure and dimensionality is of great significance in material science. In this work, the hierarchical carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were synthesized via a simple chemical conversion route by using Carbon Substrate/Fe3O4-SBA-15 hybrid (all in one). The synthesis of Carbon Substrate/Fe3O4-SBA-15 hybrid was carried out using Fe3O4- SBA-15 as a hard template and sucrose as carbon precursor. Sucrose was dissolved in a solution of H2SO4 in water and to this solution, Fe3O4-SBA-15 was added. The resulting mixture was dried at 373 K and then heated at 433 K for 6 h. A second impregnation was performed in order to ensure the filling of the template pores with the carbon precursor. To obtain the carbon nanotubes, the sample was placed in muffle at 1173 K under nitrogen flow (20mL/min) for 30 min. In order to remove the silica, the material was placed in an HF solution. The CNTs was filtered, washed and dried at 323 K. In the present work, we report the synthesis and characterization of CNTs materials of hybrid material. The material was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the morphologies and structural features of the prepared materials were observed from the SEM and TEM images.

    Aniline adsorption and polymerization over gallium modified mesoporous material.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2018) Martínez , María Laura; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Rivoira , Lorena Paola
    In this work we study aniline polymerization over a mesoporous Ga-SBA-3 synthesized in our laboratory. In order to modify the intrinsic acidity of the mesoporous material gallium was incorporated into the structure by post synthesis wet impregnation method using gallium nitrate. Structural and textural characterization of the materials was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ICP and EDX analysis, N2 adsorption-desorption and BET area analysis, FTIR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The catalytic material presented a ratio Si/Ga=32. Aniline is a weak organic base and an amphiprotic compound, so it can accept or donate protons. The polyaniline (PANI) exists in diverse ways presenting different chemical and physical properties. The protonated polyaniline feature the conductivity of a semiconductor material, over 100 S/cm. Toward achieve aniline adsorption, the solid gallium silicate was exposed to aniline vapours. The aniline adsorption was studied by infrared spectroscopy and the results obtained were evaluated so as to been able to polymerize it over the mesoporous material generating a unique polyaniline-host composite with new properties. Those polyaniline/hosts composites obtained by a polymerization in-situ technique were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Comparing to previous results FTIR analysis of the polyaniline/Ga SBA-3 composite (PANI/Ga-SBA-3) showed characteristics bands attributed to the quinoidal stretching (N=Q=N) and C-C stretching of the benzene ring. The low angle XRD analysis showed that the mesoporous structure was maintained in spite of the gallium incorporation. The absence of PANI peaks and G2O3 in the wide angle XRD pattern confirms that the polyaniline is adsorbed over the gallium silicate mesoporous surface and the gallium is well dispersed over the support.

    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2018) Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Juárez , Juliana María; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Juárez , Juliana María
    En el presente trabajo se sintetizó Ti-CMK-3 mediante un nuevo método de síntesis, en el cual se evita la utilización de un molde, con el fin de reducir el tiempo, el consumo de energía y por ende el costo. La caracterización estructural y superficial del catalizador se realizó mediante adsorción de N2, XRD, UV-Vis DRS, espectroscopía Raman y TEM. Los resultados de la caracterización indicaron que las propiedades texturales y estructurales del material sintetizado son comparables con las propiedades del material preparado por el método tradicional. El catalizador Ir-Ti-CMK-3 obtenido fue activo y selectivo para la reacción de hidrodenitrogenación (HDN) del indol. La principal ventaja del presente estudio es la reducción de tiempo y costo de la síntesis, simultáneamente con la aplicabilidad en las reacciones de Hidrotratamiento (HDT)

    Experiment design-response surface methodology (RSM) is used in this work to model and optimize two responses in the hydrogenation of tetralin to decalin using bimetallic Ir–Pt-SBA-15 catalyst. In this study, we analyze the influence of the nature of the catalyst (metal molar fraction and metal loading), the catalyst/substrate ratio and the temperature of the reaction as factors for the design. The responses analyzed were conversion at 3 h and at 5 h of reaction time. The response surfaces were obtained with the Box– Behnken design, finding the best combination between the reaction parameters that allowed optimizing the process. By applying the statistic methodology, the higher levels of the two objective functions were obtained employing the catalyst with 1 wt.% of iridium and 0.7–0.8 wt.% of platinum; the optimal ratio between mass of catalyst and mole of tetralin was 17–19 g/mol and temperature between 200 and 220 ◦C

    Vanadium supported-CMK-3 catalysts with vanadium loading of 1–7 wt.% were studied in the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound. The activity was compared with titanium supported-CMK-3. Structural and textural characterization of the catalysts was performed by means of N2 adsorption, XRD, UV–vis–DRS, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, TEM and TPR. The dispersion and the nature of the vanadium species depend on the V loading, so does the catalyst activity. Vanadium supported-CMK-3 with 7 wt.% of vanadium loading was the most active catalyst for ODS of DBT using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as oxidant and acetonitrile as solvent. 100% of DBT elimination was attained at short time in mild conditions. Carbon ordered mesoporous CMK-3 with high surface area and high pore volume promotes a very good anchorage of metallic oxides in the carbons framework reaching high active sites distribution and more stable nanoclusters. The reusability of the catalyst indicates that V-CMK-3 is a potential catalyst for the ODS of dibenzothiophene

    TiO2-modified mesoporous SBA-16 and titanium-substituted mesoporous SBA-16 were developed and tested in the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of dibenzothiophene prevailing in liquid fuel. Pure TiO2 was used as reference. The titania-based catalysts were characterized by chemical analysis, XRD, EDX and TEM. The titanium state as tetrahedral (in Ti-SBA-16 sample) or octahedral (in TiO2/SBA-16 sample) coordination surrounding in the silicate matrix was determined by XPS, UV–vis DRS, FTIR, Raman and XANES. We assessed the impact exerted on performance of different reaction variables, including (nature and amount of the active catalytic species, phase system, molar ratio of oxidant H2O2 and DBT, reaction temperature, nature of the substrate and reuse of catalysts). In addition, we carried out a kinetic study and the activation energy was determined. We achieved 90% of S removal from a 0.2 wt.% dibenzothiophene solution at 60 ◦C in less than 1 h of reaction. The best catalytic results are obtained with high exposed surface of nanometric TiO2 species of TiO2/SBA-16 sample. The activated catalyst is very active in ODS reaction and can be reused four times with no loss in activity.

    Novel preparation of CMK-3 nanostructured material modified with titania applied in hydrogen uptake and storage.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2016) Juárez , Juliana María; Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Gómez Costa, Marcos Bruno; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia
    This work deals with the development of a novel procedure to synthesize titania-modified nano structured carbon employing Ti-SBA-15 as hard template. The new mesoporous carbon displays high specific surface area of 1044 m2/g and large pore volume of 0.7 cm3/g. XRD pattern of Ti-CMK-3 indicates that the ordered structure of this material is similar to the CMK-3. XRD, XPS and UVeVis-DRS analysis indicated that Ti is highly dispersed as anatase phase in Ti-CMK-3. The synthesized Ti-CMK-3 exhibited significantly enhanced H2 storage properties (2.6 wt%, equivalent to 13 mmol/g) compared with CMK-3 without Ti (2.2 wt%, 11 mmol/g) at 77 K and 10 bar.

    HDN of indole over Ir-modified Ti-SBA-15.
    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2015) Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    The hydrodenitrogenation of indole has been studied over a series of Ti-modified SBA-15 supports and their respective Ir-catalysts. Ti-SBA-15 was synthesized using sol-gel method and Ti was added during the synthesis using Tetraethyl Orthotitanate. Iridium was added by wetness impregnation. The acidity of Ti-SBA-15 was modified adding F or Al in order to improve the catalytic activity. The catalysts pre pared were extensively characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption isotherms, UV–vis-DRS, Raman spectroscopy, 27 Al-MAS-NMR spectroscopy, XPS, TEM-EDS, Py-FTIR, H2-Chemisorption and TPR. UV–vis-DRS and Raman spectroscopy confirmed that Ti was incorporated in tetrahedral coordination in the framework of the SBA-15. The analysis showed that the mesoporous structure was maintained after F or Al incorporation. 27 Al-MAS-NMR spectroscopy indicated that aluminum was incorporated mainly in Td positions. The results showed that Ti incorporation helps to reduce significantly the size of iridium crystallites and improves its dispersion considerably. Ir/Ti-SBA-15 modified with Al, with Bronsted acid ity, was the most active catalyst for indole HDN, in mild conditions in a Batch reactor. The experimental data for indole hydrodenitrogenation was quantitatively represented by a Langmuir–Hinshelwood type rate equation

    (Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2017) Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Juárez , Juliana María; Vallés , Verónica Alejandra; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    Abstract Iridium catalyst was prepared using a novel tita nium oxide-CMK-3 support synthesized as a replica of Ti SBA-15. The catalyst was applied in the hydrodenitrogena tion of indole. The activity was compared with an iridium catalyst supported over a grafted titanium-CMK-3. Struc tural and textural characterization of the catalysts was per formed by means of N2 adsorption, XRD, UV–Vis–DRS, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, TEM and H2 Chemisorption. Ir Ti-CMK-3 was the most active catalyst for the hydro denitrogenation reaction at mild conditions. Titanium oxide contained in carbon ordered mesoporous CMK-3 promotes a very good anchorage of iridium metallic clusters in the carbon framework reaching high active site distribution and more stable nanoclusters.
