    EXperimental design optimization of the ODS of DBT using vanadium oXide supported on mesoporous Ga-SBA-15
    (2020) Rivoira, Lorena Paola; Cussa, Jorgelina; Martínez, María Laura; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    EXperiment design-response surface methodology is applied in this work to model and optimize the o Xidation 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 s ubstrate/catalyst mass ratio (g DBT/g of catalyst) and the o Xidant/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 ofthe 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.

    Iron-modified mesoporous materials as catalysts for ODS of sulfur compounds
    (2020) Rivoira, Lorena Paola; Juárez, Juliana María; Martínez, María Laura; Beltramone, Andrea Raquel
    Fe-modified mesoporous catalysts were used in the ODS of DBTs using H2O2 as oXidant and acetonitrile as solvent. SBA-15, MCM-48, CMK-3 and CMK-1 were used as supports. Iron was incorporated using iron nitrate by wetness impregnation. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, N2 isotherms, TEM, XPS and ICP. We developed catalysts with high specific surface area, pore volume and narrow mesopore size distribution and highly dis- persed Fe- species. The catalysts were tested in the o Xidative desulfurization of different sulfur compounds as benzothiophene, dibenzothiopene and 4,6-dimethyl dibenzothiopene. The catalyst prepared using CMK-3 as support was the most active for the ODS reaction. The good activity was related with the high dispersion of the iron oXides, mainly in the magnetite phase. Temperature, hydrogen peroXide and sulfur initial concentration were studied using Fe-CMK-3 in the oXidation of DBT. The optimal operation conditions were determined. Fe- CMK-3 is an active and stable catalyst to be applied in the industrial process of ODS.
