    Experiment design-response surface methodology is applied in this work to model and optimize the oxidation of dibenzothiophene (DBT) using VOx-Ga SBA-15 catalyst. The analyzed variables are the influence of the nature of the catalyst (V and Ga loading), the substrate/catalyst mass ratio (g DBT/g of catalyst) and the oxidant/substrate molar ratio (H2O2/DBT). The response analyzed is conversion of DBT at 15 min of reaction time. A set of re- sponse surfaces were obtained applying the Box-Behnken Design. Based on statistical methodology it was pos- sible to find the best arrangement between the amounts of the gallium heteroatom and the vanadium active species. The higher levels of the objective function were obtained employing the catalyst with 4 wt.% of gallium and 6 wt.% of vanadium; the optimal ratio between g DBT/g of catalyst was 4 and the molar ratio between H2O2/DBT was 5. Gallium incorporation as heteroatom in tetrahedral position allowed the better anchorage of the active species of vanadium, generating a very well dispersed catalyst. The optimized catalyst minimized the mass transfer limitation and moreover, was active after several recycles. The best catalyst was likewise very active for the oxidation of the most refractory sulfur compounds as benzothiophene and 4,6-dimetyldi- benzothiopene.

    Noble-biometallic 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.
