    Monometallic Pt- and bimetallic Pt-Ir-modified Ti-SBA-15 were used in the hydrogenation of tetralin to decalin in the presence of 150 ppm of N as quinoline and indole at 250 ◦C and 15 atm of pressure of hydrogen, using a Parr reactor. The catalyst was synthesized using sol-gel method and Ti was added during the synthesis using Tetraethyl Orthotitanate. Pt/Ir was added by wetness impregnation. The catalysts prepared were extensively characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption isotherms, UV–vis DRS, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, TEM-EDS 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 metal incorporation and Ti incorporation helps to reduce significantly the size of the metals clusters and improves its dispersion considerably. Pt-Ir/Ti-SBA 15 was the most active catalyst. The experimental data were quantitatively represented by a modified Langmuir-Hinshelwood type rate equation. The preliminary results show these materials as a promising catalyst for HDT reactions.

    Noble-bimetallic supported CMK-3 as a novel catalyst for hydrogenation of tetralin in the presence of sulfur and nitrogen.

    Carbon ordered mesoporous CMK-3 with high surface area and high pore volume promotes a very good dispersion of Pt or Ir monometallic and Pt-Ir-bimetallic crystallites in the carbon framework. High active and stable nanospecies are responsible for the good activity and selectivity found in the hydrogenation of tetralin to decalin in the presence of N as indole and S as dibenzothiophene under mild conditions in a Batch reactor. The catalysts prepared were extensively characterized by XRD, N2 adsorption isotherms, XPS, TEM, ICP, CO Chemisorption and TPR. The analysis showed that the carbon mesoporous structure was maintained after metal incorporation, and very high dispersed metal-supported catalyst was obtained. The activity was compared using the turnover number, Pt-Ir-CMK-3 being the most active cat alyst in the presence of the inhibitors. The bimetallic catalyst showed more resistance to inhibition than monometallic catalysts. The reusability of Pt-Ir-CMK-3 suggests that it is a potential catalyst for hydrotreating reactions.
