    Diesel emissions contribute to environmental issues associated to sulfur oxides released during the combustion process of fuels. Ultra-low-sulfur-diesel (ULSD) is diesel with substantially lowered sulfur content. Many countries have established regulations to restrict the S content in petroleum products to be 15 ppm and zero emission is even expected1 . Alternatively, oxidative desulfurization (ODS) provides selective removal of those refractory sulfur compounds at proper temperatures and pressure and is capable to eliminate most refractory sulfur compounds in HDS. This is the process wherein dibenzothiophene derivatives are converted to their corresponding sulfone, which could be easily separated from the oil. Therefore, ODS has a great potential to become a complementary process to traditional HDS in the production of deeply desulfurized diesel fuels. In view of the recent studies, Ti and V oxides have demonstrated to improve S-compounds oxidation2,3. In this work we evaluate vanadium and titanium-based catalysts supported over a mesoporous carbon with large surface area (CMK-3) in the ODS of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound.

    En el presente trabajo se estudiaron catalizadores de vanadio soportados sobre el carbón mesoporosos CMK 3 con diferentes contenidos de Vanadio (1-7 % p/p) en la desulfurización oxidativa de dibenzotiofeno (DBT) como modelo de compuestos sulfurados. La actividad catalítica se comparó con catalizadores de Titanio soportados en CMK-3. Las propiedades estructurales y texturales de los catalizadores se analizaron mediante estudios de adsorción de N2, XRD, UV-Vis-DRS y TEM. Tanto la dispersión como la actividad catalítica dependen fuertemente del contenido de vanadio. La muestra que contiene el 7% p/p de Vanadio es el catalizador con mejor actividad catalítica para la reacción de ODS de DBT utilizando peróxido de hidrógeno ((H2O2) como oxidante y acetonitrilo como solvente. El 100% de la eliminación de DBT se alcanzó a corto plazo en condiciones suaves. El carbon mesoporoso CMK-3 con una alta área superficial y gran volumen de poros promueve el anclaje del metal en la red de carbono, lo que permite alcanzar una alta distribución de sitios activos y nanoclusters más estables. La reutilización del catalizador indica que V-CMK-3 es un catalizador potencial para los ODS de dibenzotiofeno.

    A nanostructured Carbon CMK-3 modified with Fe by using different sources of Fe, were used in the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound. Ordered mesoporous carbon CMK-3 was synthesized via a two-step impregnation of the SBA-15 silica mesonanopores with a solution of sucrose using an incipient wetness method. The sucrose–silica composite was heated at 1173 K for 4 h under nitrogen flow. The silica template was dissolved in 5 wt.% hydrofluoric acid in order to remove the silica. The template-free carbon product thus obtained was filtered, washed with deionized water and ethanol and dried. Fe-CMK-3 was prepared by wetness impregnation using FeCl3.6H2O and FeNO3.9H2O as different sources of Fe. A solution of FeCl3.6H2O/ FeNO3.9H2O in ethanol was mixed with the carbon solution at room temperature. The solution was placed in a rotary evaporator to remove excess of ethanol at about 333 K and 60 rpm. Afterwards, the sample was dried at 373 K for 18 h and was thermally treated in a dynamic inert (N2) atmosphere. The percentage of Fe has been 2 wt.% with respect to carbon in the final FeCl3-CMK-3 and FeNO3-CMK 3 material. Porous carbon CMK-3 and the samples modified with Fe were characterized by XRD, FTIR, XPS, BET, TEM and SEM. These studies indicated that it was possible to obtain a CMK-3 replica successfully from SBA-15, using sucrose as a carbon precursor. Wide angle XRD pattern of the sample modified with FeCl3.6H2O implies the formation of the magnetite phase in the silica channels. The surface areas were 1320 m2/g for the CMK-3 and 1240 m2/g and 609 m2/g for FeCl3- CMK-3 and FeNO3-CMK-3, respectively. While the nanomaterial area is significantly smaller with the incorporation of the metal, CMK-3`s characteristic structure is maintained after the metal is within the host, in agreement with the XRD studies. The catalytic activity was improved when the nanoporous carbon was modified with Fe. The sample modified with FeCl3.6H2O 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.

    Iridium catalyst was prepared using a novel titanium oxide-CMK-3 support synthesized as a replica of Ti-SBA-15. The catalyst was applied in the hydrodenitrogenation of indole. The activity was compared with an iridium catalyst supported over a grafted titanium 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 H2 Chemisorption. Ir-Ti-CMK-3 was the most active catalyst for the hydrodenitrogenation 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

    Ti-CMK-3 carbon mesoporous was prepared using a novel synthesis method. This new method avoids the hard template synthesis used commonly. The method developed here, allows reducing time, energy consumption and cost. Our primary aim in this work is to evaluate the ODS activity of the Ti-modified mesoporous carbon CMK-3, synthesized by the short time method, in order to achieve total removal of sulfur compounds from diesel fuel. The catalytic oxidation of the sulfur compound with hydrogen peroxide was carried out in a glass batch reactor, equipped with a magnetic stirrer, a thermometer and a condenser. In a typical run, the solid catalyst (60 mg) was suspended under stirring (750 rpm) in 20 mL of a solution of 500 ppm of S as DBT (or other) in acetonitrile. Then, appropriate amount of 30% aqueous H2O2 was added at constant temperature. The experiments were performed in a three-phase liquid-liquid-solid (L (oil) –L (solvent) –S (catalyst)) system, acetonitrile was used as solvent and dodecane as oil phase. Solution samples were recovered at various times. The products were analyzed by GC HP 5890 Series II with a HP-5 column and connected to FID and PFPD detectors, after filtration and eventually decantation step. The products were confirmed using a Shimadzu GCMS. Structural and textural characterization of the titanium modified-mesoporous carbon was performed by N2 adsorption, XRD, UV-Vis-DRS, XPS, Raman spectroscopy and TEM. The characterization results indicated that the textural and structural properties of the material synthesized by the short time method are comparable with the properties of the material prepared by the hard template method. Ti modified-mesoporous carbon was synthesized by different methods in order to prepare catalysts to be tested in the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of sulfur compounds. The good performance and stability of the catalyst prepared using a novel synthesis method was attributed to well dispersed anatase nanospecies over the high area mesoporous carbon. Main advantage of the present study is the reduction of time and cost in the synthesis of the new material and the applicability for ODS reactions.

    An ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) modified with titania was prepared using a novel and shorter synthesis method. OMC was successfully synthesized by the carbonization of the silica/TEOT/triblock copolymer/sucrose composite in the presence of sulfuric acid. This novel material was modified with the incorporation of nanoparticles of Iridium. Structural and textural characterization of the catalyst was performed by means of N2 adsorption, XRD, UV–Vis–DRS, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, TEM and H2 Chemisorption. The characterization results indicated that the textural and structural properties of the support synthesized by the short time method are comparable with the properties of the support prepared by the hard template method. Ir-Ti-OMC catalyst obtained by short time synthesis was active and selective in the hydrogenation of indole. Main advantage of the present study is the reduction of time and cost in the synthesis of the new material and the applicability for HDT reactions.

    Se aplicaron catalizadores mesoporosos modificados con Fe en la reacción de ODS de DBTs, utilizando H2O2 como oxidante y acetonitrilo como solvente. Los soportes utilizados fueron SBA-15, MCM-48, CMK-3 y CMK-1.El hierro se incorporó mediante impregnación húmeda utilizando nitrato de hierro. Los catalizadores se caracterizaron por XRD, isotermas de N2, TEM, XPS e ICP. Hemos desarrollado catalizadores con gran área específica y volumen de poro, distribución estrecha del tamaño de mesoporos y especies de hierro altamente dispersas. Se probaron los catalizadores en desulfuración oxidativa de diferentes compuestos de azufre tales como benzotiofeno (BT), dibenzotiofeno (DBT) y 4,6-dimetil dibenzotiofeno 4,6-DMDBT). El catalizador preparado con CMK-3 como soporte fue el más activo para la reacción de ODS. La buena actividad se relacionó con la elevada dispersión de óxidos de hierro, principalmente en la fase magnetita. En la oxidación de DBT y utilizando Fe-CMK-3 se estudiaron la temperatura, peróxido de hidrogeno y concentración inicial de azufre. Se determinaron las condiciones óptimas de operación. Fe-CMK-3 es un catalizador activo y estable para ser aplicado en el proceso industrial de ODS. Palabras clave: SBA-15, MCM-48, CMK-3, CMK-1, Fe.

    Mandatory environmental regulations have been legislated all over the world so the top permitted content of sulfur in diesel is 15 ppm. ODS is the oxidation of sulfur compounds present in diesel to form sulfoxides and sulfones. These substances are highly polar and hence easily removed by extraction with solvent. Oxidant agent commonly used are peroxides such as hydrogen peroxide and tert-butylhydroperoxide (Di Giusepe et al., 2009). Since Diesel is a non-polar liquid while H2O2 is a polar liquid, a polar solvent is needed. The formed polar products can be easily removed from the operation unit by liquid liquid extraction. Mesoporous materials have been tried showing potential catalytic applications. Transition metals are commonly used as catalyst in ODS such as Mo, Mn, Sn, Fe, Zn, V and Ti (Cedeño-Caero et al., 2011). In this work, we propose the application of different supports as SBA-15, MCM-48, CMK-1 and CMK-3 for the preparation of Fe-catalysts.

    El nanomoldelado de materiales ha sido el único método para crear materiales mesoporosos de carbono, utilizando plantillas inorgánicas (Ezzeddine et al., 2016). Involucra una última etapa donde se elimina el agente plantilla, lo cual lo hace complicado, largo y de elevado costo. Recientemente Ledesma et al. (2017) demostraron la posibilidad de un método de síntesis más corto para obtener CMK-3 modificada con Ti incorporando las especies de Ti directamente en la estructura del carbón mesoporoso utilizando Ti-SBA-15 como agente plantilla. En la reacción de ODS ocurre la oxidación de aquellos compuestos de S más refractarios en la HDS, utilizando de un agente oxidante en presencia de un catalizador (Subhan et al., 2012). Es necesario agregar un solvente polar al sistema, capaz de extraer las moléculas de S desde la fase diesel para que pueda estar en contacto con el agente oxidante (H2O2, polar) y el catalizador. En el presente trabajo se evalúa la actividad en la ODS de carbón mesoporoso CMK-3 modificado con Ti, sintetizado mediante un novedoso método más corto.

    The ordered mesoporous silica SBA-15 has been applied in studies of ketorolac tromethamine adsorption and release. The SBA-15 materials with hexagonal and regular structure were obtained using a triblock copolymer Pluronic P123 as a template and TEOS as a silica source. Ketorolac tromethamine was adsorbed into SBA-15 silica nanochannels using ethanol as solvent. The physicochemical and textural properties of SBA-15 and ketorolac tromethamine/SBA-15 were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and BET surface studies. The composite SBA-15/KETO shows characteristic bands of both, drug materials and the inorganic framework. This indicates that KETO was adsorbed into SBA-15 channel surface without affecting the chemical structure or composition of KETO. Drug release was evaluated by soaking the loaded silica mesoporous material into a solution of HCl (0.1N) at initial time (0 - 2 h) and buffer pH 7 at high times at 37 ºC under continuous stirring. Oral commercial Keto tablets (Dolten®) and Keto solution (Keto power) were study for the contrast. Release studies were performed in order to evaluate the required therapeutic efficacy. SBA-15 provides significant improvement in the controlled release of ketorolac tromethamine and enhance a good analgesia effect.
