    Over 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. 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 tempe rature, nature of the substrate and reuse of catalysts)

    Vanadium oxide supported on mesoporous SBA-15 modified with AI and Ga as a highly active catalyst in the ODS of DBT.

    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

    RSM in the analysis of conversion of DBT in oxidative desulfurization using vanadium-SBA-15 catalysts modified with AI and Ga.

    Experiment design-response surface methodology (RSM) was used to model and optimize one response in the oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene with hydrogen peroxide using VOx-Ga-SBA-15 catalysts with different Ga/Si and V/Si ratios. In this study, we analyze the influence of the nature of the catalyst (metal/Si ratio), the substrate/catalyst mass ratio and the oxidant/substrate ratio. Conversion at 15 min is the analyzed response. 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 objective function were obtained employing the catalyst with 4 wt.% of gallium and 6 wt.% of vanadium; optimal ratio between g DBT/g of catalyst was 4 and molar ratio H2O2/DBT was 5. The incorporation of gallium as heteroatom in tetrahedral position allows the better anchorage of the active species of vanadium generating a very well dispersed catalyst. 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 depended on the vanadium loading and on the nature of the support. The experiment design was able to find the best combination between the heteroatom and the vanadium active site in order to find the most active catalyst for ODS of DBT at the optimized experimental conditions.

    Titania-modifed SBA-16 applied to oxidative desulfuration of DBT
    (2014) Rivoira, Lorena Paola; Vallés, Verónica; Ledesma, Brenda; Martínez, María Laura; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    Recent results show that Ti-containing molecular sieves exhibit good catalytic reactivity in the oxidation of sulfide, mercaptan, thiophene and derivatives [1]. In this work, we describe the preparation and characterization of new mesoporous catalytic materials based on Ti-containing SBA-16. The aim of the present work is to study the effect of the preparation method of titania-modified SBA-16 (characteristics of the active species Ti and/or TiO2) on the performance in the ODS of DBT with H2O2 and acetonitrile as solvent at mild conditions.
