    Vanadium supported-CMK-3 catalysts with vanadium loading of 1–7 wt.% were studied in the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) of dibenzothiophene as a model sulfur compound. The activity was compared with titanium supported-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 TPR. The dispersion and the nature of the vanadium species depend on the V loading, so does the catalyst activity. Vanadium supported-CMK-3 with 7 wt.% of vanadium loading 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 short time in mild conditions. Carbon ordered mesoporous CMK-3 with high surface area and high pore volume promotes a very good anchorage of metallic oxides in the carbons framework reaching high active sites distribution and more stable nanoclusters. The reusability of the catalyst indicates that V-CMK-3 is a potential catalyst for the ODS of dibenzothiophene.

    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).

    In order to adapt current processes to the strict regulatory requirements, several technologies have been developed for deep desulfurization of diesel fuel. The major portion of sulfur in light cycle oils (LCO) is found in dibenzothiophene (DBT) and alkyl-dibenzothiophenes, which are not easily removable by hydrotreating, because they require high pressure and hydrogen consumption. Vanadium oxides 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 framework 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 VO4-3 species are responsible for the high activity in the sulfur removal. 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 as oxidant and acetonitrile as solvent. 100% of DBT elimination was attained at a short time in mild conditions. Gallium and aluminum incorporation into the support modified successfully the nature of the SBA-15 surface by generating Bronsted and Lewis acidity. The interaction between the acid sites with the active vanadium sites improved the activity of the catalysts. The high dispersion depended on the vanadium loading and on the nature of the support. The more acidic support allowed better dispersion of the vanadium species due to stronger interaction metal-support. The reusability of the catalysts indicates that vanadium oxide supported on mesoporous SBA-15 modified with Ga and Al are potential catalysts for the ODS of dibenzothiophene.

    Aniline adsorption and polymerization over gallium modified mesoporous material.
    (Universidad Tecnológica Nacional., 2018) Martínez , María Laura; Rivoira , Lorena Paola; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Anunziata, Oscar Alfredo; Rivoira , Lorena Paola
    In this work we study aniline polymerization over a mesoporous Ga-SBA-3 synthesized in our laboratory. In order to modify the intrinsic acidity of the mesoporous material gallium was incorporated into the structure by post synthesis wet impregnation method using gallium nitrate. Structural and textural characterization of the materials was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ICP and EDX analysis, N2 adsorption-desorption and BET area analysis, FTIR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The catalytic material presented a ratio Si/Ga=32. Aniline is a weak organic base and an amphiprotic compound, so it can accept or donate protons. The polyaniline (PANI) exists in diverse ways presenting different chemical and physical properties. The protonated polyaniline feature the conductivity of a semiconductor material, over 100 S/cm. Toward achieve aniline adsorption, the solid gallium silicate was exposed to aniline vapours. The aniline adsorption was studied by infrared spectroscopy and the results obtained were evaluated so as to been able to polymerize it over the mesoporous material generating a unique polyaniline-host composite with new properties. Those polyaniline/hosts composites obtained by a polymerization in-situ technique were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Comparing to previous results FTIR analysis of the polyaniline/Ga SBA-3 composite (PANI/Ga-SBA-3) showed characteristics bands attributed to the quinoidal stretching (N=Q=N) and C-C stretching of the benzene ring. The low angle XRD analysis showed that the mesoporous structure was maintained in spite of the gallium incorporation. The absence of PANI peaks and G2O3 in the wide angle XRD pattern confirms that the polyaniline is adsorbed over the gallium silicate mesoporous surface and the gallium is well dispersed over the support.

    Mesocrystals (basically nanostructures showing alignment of nanocrystals well beyond crystal size) are attracting considerable attention for modeling and optimiza- (heterogeneous catalysis), only those mesocrystals with excellent textural properties are expected to fulfill their potential. This is especially true for oxidative desulfuration of dibenzothiophenes (hard to desulfurize organosulfur com pounds found in fossil fuels). Here, we probe the catalytic activity of anatases for the oxidative desulfuration of dibenzothiophenes under atmospheric pressure and mild temperatures. Specifically, for this study, we have taken advantage of the high stability of the (101) anatase surface to obtain (pores around 3−4 nm and surface areas around 200 m2 /g). Ultimately, this stability has allowed us to compare the catalytic activity of anatasesthat expose a high number of aligned single crystal-like surfaces while differing in controllable surface essential for oxidative desulfuration and that both elimination of sulfates and good textural properties significantly improve the catalytic activity. Furthermore, the most active mesocrystals have been used to model the catalytic reaction in three-(oil− the oil to the solvent phase partially limits the oxidative process and to estimate an apparent activation energy for the oxidative establish that (101) anatase mesocrystals with excellent textural propertiesshow adequate stability to withstand several post treatments without losing their initial mesocrystalline character and therefore could serve as modelsfor catalytic processes different from the one studied here.

    La desulfuración oxidativa (ODS) de combustibles líquidos representa una tecnología alternativa eficiente para complementar la HDS de dibenzotiofenos. Opera en condiciones moderadas de presión y temperatura. Se demuestra en este trabajo que los mesocristales con estructura anatasa, de tamaño coloidal monodisperso y excelentes propiedades texturales, pueden oxidar eficazmente al dibenzotiofeno (DBT) a sulfonas. La caracterización mediante UV/Vis-DRS de los catalizadores desarrollados indican la presencia mayoritaria de especies Ti (IV) con coordinación tetraédrica, pero se también se han detectado especies tetraédricas. Se obtuvo elevada actividad catalítica en la ODS de DBT, esta podría deberse a especies de Ti(IV) con coordinación tetraédrica disperso en un sustrato de elevada área superficial. Estos resultados corroboran la implicancia del mecanismo de crecimiento de los mesocristales, ya que sugieren que las especies terminales son similares a otras nanoestructuras no orientadas. Se muestra que un tratamiento que reduzca la cantidad de sulfatos residuales sobre la superficie da lugar a un incremento de la actividad catalítica de los mesocristales en esta reacción. Este hecho se atribuye a que la eliminación de los grupos sulfato residuales probablemente implica la formación de un número mayor de especies Ti (IV) con coordinación tetraédrica.

    Experiment design-response surface methodology (RSM) is used in this work to model and optimize two responses in the hydrogenation of tetralin to decalin using bimetallic Ir–Pt-SBA-15 catalyst. In this study, we analyze the influence of the nature of the catalyst (metal molar fraction and metal loading), the catalyst/substrate ratio and the temperature of the reaction as factors for the design. The responses analyzed were conversion at 3 h and at 5 h of reaction time. 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 two objective functions were obtained employing the catalyst with 1 wt.% of iridium and 0.7–0.8 wt.% of platinum; the optimal ratio between mass of catalyst and mole of tetralin was 17–19 g/mol and temperature between 200 and 220 ◦C
