Item Study of Ir/Ti-SBA-15 acidity influence on the HDN of indole.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2015) Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Vallés , Verónica Alejandra; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Balangero, Gerardo Simón; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Vallés , Verónica AlejandraThe 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 TEOT as Ti source. Ti was incorporated into the framework replacing the Si atoms in the mesoporous structure. Ir/Ti-SBA-15 with and without F and/or Al were prepared to improve the catalytic activity. F and Al have been incorporated by wetness impregnation method. The effect of the incorporation of F and Al in the mesoporous structure was tested in the hydrodenitrogenation reaction of indole. The catalysts were extensively characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption isotherms, TEM, FTIR and UV-vis-DRS and Raman spectroscopy. The low angle X-ray analysis showed for all the materials intensive reflection, characteristic of SBA-15 structure. The mesoporous structure was maintained after F and Al incorporation. The results showed that Ti incorporation reduces significantly the cluster size and improves considerably the Ir cluster dispersion. The catalytic activity of Ir/Ti-SBA-15 modified with F and Al, with higher acidity, avoided the irreversible adsorption of indole. The catalytic activity was studied in a 4563 Parr reactor, at 250°C, 15 atm of pressure of hydrogen and 360 rpm. The catalysts synthesized had good activity measured in hydrodenitrogenation of indole at mild conditions. The preliminary results show these materials as promising catalysts for HDN reactionsItem Sulfur elimination by ODSwith titanium-modified SBA-16.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2015) Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Vallés , Verónica Alejandra; Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Martínez , María Laura; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea RaquelOver the past, oxidative desulfurization (ODS) has drawn considerable interest as a new alter-native method for deep sulfur elimination from light oils. This can be attributed to its attractive properties, including lower temperature and pressure conditions and lower operating cost than conventional hydrodesulfurization (HDS) process. Oxidation of organosulfur compounds results in the formation of sulfoxides/sulfones, highly polar and hence easily removed by both extraction into polar solvents or by adsorption. Due to their low reactivity, dibenzothiophene derivatives (DBTs) are the most refractory species to be eliminated from oils. Hence, the ODS process through which DBTs are converted to their corresponding sulfones involves great interest at present. In this work, we describe the preparation and characterization of new mesoporous catalytic materials based on Ti-containing SBA-16. We study here, the effect of the preparation method of titania-modified SBA-16 (characteristics of the active Ti and/or TiO2 species) and the effect of the different operation conditions in ODS of DBT under mild conditions in order to find the best performance. 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. 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). 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 activityItem Sílica Gel como fuente de silicio: Síntesis y caracterización de matrial mesoporoso.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2015) Ponte , María Virginia; Martínez , María Laura; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Martínez , María LauraEl material mesoporoso SBA-3 fue sintetizado mediante el método sol-gel, utilizando silicato de sodio como fuente de silicio y bromuro de hexadeciltrimetilamonio (CTAB) como agente director de estructura en condiciones acidas. El silicato sódico se generó in-situ por disolución de silica gel en NaOH. Se estudió el efecto de la variación de temperatura, la concentración de NaOH, y el tiempo de reacción. El mejor material mesoporoso con estructura SBA-3 fue obtenido con las siguientes condiciones de síntesis: temperatura: 25ºC; tiempo de reacción: 45min; concentración de NaOH: 0.8M.Item Hydrodenitrogenation of over Ir supporteD Ti-SBA-15 modified with F AND AI.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2015) Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Vallés , Verónica Alejandra; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Balangero, Gerardo Simón; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Vallés , Verónica AlejandraThe hydrodenitrogenation of Indole has been studied over a series of Ti-modified SBA 15 supports and their respective Ir-catalysts.

Langmuir-Hinshelwood type rate equations were used to describe the reaction kinetics accurately with physically meaningful and well identified parameter values. Model parameters were tuned by fitting experimental data obtained in a continuous flow reactor at 345°C, 1000 psi pressure and different contact times. Pt-Pd-F/Al2O3 was more active than NiMo catalyst and conversion remained constant during 24 h of TOS. The model was able to correctly interpret all the experimental data. Parameter estimation results showed that phenanthrene and naphthalene inhibited the tetralin hydrogenation rate, whereas naphthalene and tetralin had no appreciable effect on the rate of phenanthrene conversion. This inhibition could be explained by the competitive adsorption and was described in the kinetic model by adsorption terms obtained from the multicomponent experiments. The inhibiting effect of different nitrogen compounds on the polyaromatic hydrogenation was determined. The following nitrogen compounds were investigated in this study: quinoline, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, indole, and indoline. The degree of inhibition was expressed in terms of an apparent adsorption constant derived from the kinetics.The inhibiting effect on the HDS of DBT and 4,6 DBT followed the same trend.Item ODS of dibenzothiopene with titanium-modified SBA-16.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2015) Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Vallés , Verónica Alejandra; Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Martínez , María Laura; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Martínez , María LauraOver the past, oxidative desulfurization (ODS) has drawn considerable interest as a new alter native method for deep sulfur elimination from light oils. This can be attributed to its attrac tive properties, including lower temperature and pressure conditions and lower operating cost [1-3] than conventional hydrodesulfurization (HDS) process. Oxidation of organosulfur com pounds results in the formation of sulfoxides/sulfones, highly polar and hence easily removed by both extraction into polar solvents or by adsorption. Due to their low reactivity, diben zothiophene derivatives (DBTs) are the most refractory species to be eliminated from oils. Hence, the ODS process through which DBTs are converted to their corresponding sulfones involves great interest at present [4-6]. We recently reported a good performance of this sup port in hydrotreating processes [7]. In this work, we describe the preparation and characteriza tion of new mesoporous catalytic materials based on Ti-containing SBA-16. We study here, the effect of the preparation method of titania-modified SBA-16 (characteristics of the active Ti and/or TiO2 species) and the effect of the different operation conditions in ODS of DBT under mild conditions in order to find the best performance. 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.

Contaminants such as sulfur, nitrogen, fused ring aromatic compounds or metals are the principal to remove to achieve "green" fuels. The hydrotreating (HDT) is one of the processes most used in the refinery to remove these contaminants. To optimize the gas oil hydrotreater, it is crucial to understand the aromatic hydrogenation reac tion chemistry occurring in the gas oil hydrotreater. To find alternative processes, it is neces sary to develop new and more active catalysts to replace the current ones. Bimetallic Pt–Pd catalysts have received considerable attention, because they show high actvity in a variety of catalytic applications [1,2]. From a fundamental point of view, exploring bimetallic catalysts also allows better understanding of mechanisms and variables involved in the catalytic reac tions. The features of the catalysts here studied are going to be correlated with their catalytic performance in the hydrogenation of tetralin. The final goal is to find the optimal proportion of each metal in order to be more active and the best reaction conditions. The statistical expe riments design is the process of planning an experiment to obtain appropriate data that can be analyzed by statistical methods, to produce concrete and valid conclusions [3]. One of the main advantages in the response curve is to visualize the response for all levels of the experi mental factors Experiment design response surface methodology (RSM) is used in this work to model and to optimize the process.Item hidrogenación e hidrodesulfurización de compuestos poliaromáticos utilizando Pt-Pd/AI203.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2016) Balangero, Gerardo Simón; Falcón, Horacio; Beltramone, Andrea RaquelSe estudió la hidrogenación de compuestos poliaromáticos como tetralin y fenantreno en presencia de dibenzotiofeno y 4,6-dimetildibenzotiofeno utilizando un catalizador bimetálico Pt-Pd soportado sobre alúmina. El catalizador fue caracterizado por TEM, SEM y BET. Se obtuvo un catalizador con partículas metálicas bien dispersas y de muy pequeño tamaño. Los resultados fueron comparados con un catalizador comercial NiMo/Al2O3. Las reacciones se llevaron a cabo en un reactor de flujo continuo a 345°C y 500 psi (35 atm) variando los tiempos de contacto. Los resultados preliminares muestran que el catalizador desarrollado es más activo que el catalizador comercial. Se observó que los compuestos con mayor número de anillos aromáticos inhiben la velocidad de compuestos con menor número de anillos. Este efecto puede ser explicado en términos de una competitiva adsorción. Se realizó un test de desactivación y se observó que el catalizador no pierde su actividad luego de 20 horas de reacción.Item Hydrogenation of tetralin in presence of nitrogen using a noble-bimetallic couple over a Ti-modified SBA-15.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2017) Vallés , Verónica Alejandra; Ledesma , Brenda Cecilia; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Cussa , jorgelina; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Cussa , jorgelina; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Ledesma , Brenda CeciliaThe increased attention paid to catalytic hydrogenation in the oil refining industry is due in part to legislation regarding the maximum contents of sulfur, aromatic compounds, and alkenes in traffic fuels. Aromatics in diesel increase the particle emissions in exhaust gases and they have the further effect of lowering the fuel quality. Many factors such as the catalysts, process parameters, feedstock source and quality, reactivities of sulfur compounds, inhibition effects of H2S, nitrogen compounds and aromatics present in the feed, etc. can have significant influences on the degree of hydrogenation of diesel feeds1,2. Recently, studies have been reviewed and the investigations have also been extended to noble metals3 . In our previous investigations with bimetallic catalysts4 , we had very good results preparing the catalysts by co impregnation of the relevant metals on the SBA-15 mesoporous matrix. These studies showed high activity, selectivity and stability as well also greater resistance to poisons compared to monometallic catalysts. In this contribution titanium is incorporated in tetrahedral position replacing silicon in the mesoporous framework. We expect that Ti incorporation improve the dispersion of the bimetallic clusters. In the present work three compounds tetralin, indole and quinoline were used as models for the compounds in diesel. The model compounds were hydrogenated both separately and as mixtures in order to study the inhibition effect.Item ODS of dibenzothiophene over V-SBA-15 mesoporous material.(Univesidsad Tecnológica Nacional., 2016) Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Martínez , María Laura; Falcón, Horacio; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata , Oscar Alfredo; Martínez , María LauraOxidative desulfurization (ODS) is considered a new alternative method for deep sulfur elimination from light oils. This can be due to its attractive properties, including lower temperature and pressure conditions and lower operating cost than conventional hydrodesulfurization process. Oxidation of organosulfur compounds results in the formation of sulfoxides/sulfones, highly polar and hence easily removed by both extraction into polar solvents or by adsorption. The oxidation of DBTs with organic hydroperoxides or H2O2 was studied over various catalytic heterogeneous systems, such as supported oxide metals or titanium silicalites1-9. Vanadosilicates were used as catalysts for the desulfurization of light oil10-12. The oxidation of (DBTs) was also performed using WOx/ZrO2 catalyst13, supported Pd, Cr2O3, unsupported manganese oxides and a commercial Co Mo/Al2O3 with hydrogen peroxide as oxidant14. In general, when tetravalent cations like Ti4+, Zr4+, V4+, Sn4+, etc. are incorporated to the framework of SBA 15, the electroneutrality is maintained but some redox properties are incorporated to the support surface15,16 . In this work we evaluate vanadium modified mesoporous SBA-15 in the ODS of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound
