Ternary transition metals sulfides in hydrotreating catalysis.
2007
International audience; Pure microcrystalline barium molybdate BaMoO4 and barium tungstate BaWO4 materials were prepared by molten flux reaction using alkali metal nitrates as reaction media. The obtained crystals have rhombic shape and expose mostly (111) crystallographic planes. Their mean size depends on the flux temperature and the nature of the alkali metal cation. Monomeric molybdate and tungstate used as precursors yield target products already at 673 K whereas if polymerized ammonium oxosalts were used, then higher temperatures were necessary to obtain barium salts. The optimal temperature for the preparation of pure crystals with well defined shape was found to be near 773 K. UV–vi…
Reactivity of arsenic compounds on trapping masses and role of the active phase
2019
The aim of the thesis is to study the reactivity of organic arsenic compounds on various recovery masses and to identify the role of the nature of the active phase and the reaction mechanisms involved. The active phase is composed of metals (Ni, Co, Mo, Cu, Zn, Fe, etc.), pure or in a mixture, in the reduced state or in the sulphide state. The selection of the metallic phases will be carried out by molecular modeling "ab initio", and the synthesis by impregnation of metallic salts on mesoporous aluminas). The reactivity of the solids will be studied in a static reactor on simplified model loads, with kinetic monitoring. The advanced characterization of the solids after synthesis and after r…
Synergetic effect of gold in Au/Pd catalysts during hydrodesulfurization reactions of model compounds
2003
Abstract The simultaneous formation of colloidal dispersions of Pd and Au metal particles protected by the organic polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in reducing alcohol solution was used for the synthesis of new silica-supported monometallic and bimetallic Au x Pd y catalysts with different x / y ratios. The samples, with a 2 wt% total metal loading, after air calcinations at 673 K to remove the PVP, were characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and FTIR spectra of chemisorbed CO. Formation of alloyed Au x Pd y particles of different metal composition with consequent modification of their electronic and geometric properties was ascertained. The catalytic activi…
Effect of Gold on the HDS Activity of Supported Palladium Catalysts
2002
Abstract The effect of gold on palladium catalysts supported on amorphous aluminosilicate was investigated in the hydrodesulfurization of thiophene. A series of bimetallic AuxPdy catalysts was prepared by the slow deposition–precipitation method with decomposition of urea. The structural and surface properties of the samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques at different stages of the catalyst life. After calcination at 673 K, gold-enriched solid solutions of approximately Au90Pd10 and Au80Pd20 composition were formed for all samples of different Au/Pd ratios, along with free palladium phases. Au80Pd20 was the prevailing phase. Hydrogen treat…
Nanoparticles of AlTiZr mixed oxides as support of hydrodesulfurizaton catalysts: Synthesis and characterisation
2012
Abstract TiAlZr mixed oxides, synthesized using sol–gel method, were characterized and used as supports of hydrodesulfurization catalysts (12 wt% Mo) prepared by impregnation either with molybdenum heteropolyacid H3PMo12O40 or its cobalt salt Co1.5PMo12O40. Structure, morphology and textural properties of oxides and catalysts were characterized using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Nitrogen adsorption porosimetry, TEM-EDS, temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) techniques. Activity of the catalytic systems was tested in thiophene hydrodesulfurization (HDS). No formation of a new oxide phase was revealed in the synthesized mixed…
CoMo catalysts supported on aluminosilicates: synergy between support and sodium effects
2004
Abstract The structural properties and the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) activity of sodium doped and sodium free CoMo catalysts supported on amorphous aluminosilicates (ASA) were investigated as a function of different SiO2:Al2O3 ratios. The support yielding the most active catalyst, (66% alumina) doped with different amounts of sodium, was used for a series of similar catalysts in order to study the effect of the alkali ion on the catalytic performance. The supports were prepared by sol–gel method and the catalysts were prepared by incipient wet impregnation method. The structure and the surface of the various samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature-programmed reduc…
Reaction of thiophene with mono- and bimetallic Ni–Co particles supported on γ-Al2O3 and HDS activities of obtained sulfides
2009
Abstract Reaction between thiophene and M/γ-Al2O3 (20 wt.%, M = Ni, Co, 2Ni–Co and 2Co–Ni) was studied by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and by sulfidation in a fixed bed microreactor. The samples were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation followed by drying and reduction in hydrogen flow at 450 °C. Formation of bimetallic particles in samples containing both Ni and Co was confirmed by HRTEM with EDX analysis. The reaction with thiophene (20 or 40 mbar) was done at 360 °C in hydrogen atmosphere. TGA of the reaction with thiophene revealed that the initial rate of sulfidation drops sharply when going from Ni/γ-Al2O3 to Co/γ-Al2O3 (by a factor of 40 under used conditions). It follows…
Influence of Sodium on the Structure and HDS Activity of Co–Mo Catalysts Supported ON Silica and Aluminosilicate
2000
Abstract Structural changes and catalytic performances of hydrodesulfurization (HDS) Co–Mo catalysts, supported on amorphous aluminosilicate (ASA) and amorphous SiO 2 were investigated as a function of the amount of sodium ions added to the supports. The catalysts were prepared according to the incipient wet impregnation method using (NH 4 ) 6 Mo 7 O 24 as molybdenum precursor and CoCl 2 or Co(NO 3 ) 2 as cobalt precursor. Structural and morphological characterisations of the materials were performed with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and surface area measurements (BET). In the case of the ASA-supported catalysts, increasing the amount of sodium resulted in a gradual decrease of the catalyst surf…
Influence of the preparation method on the thiophene HDS activity of silica supported CoMo catalysts
2002
Abstract The effect of the preparation method of CoMo/SiO2 catalysts with and without sodium ions, on the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of thiophene was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and N2 physisorption (BET). The samples were prepared by total sol–gel route, by classic wetness impregnation and by co-impregnation, in the presence of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), of commercial and sol–gel prepared silica. The influence of sodium ions added to the sol mixture and to the silica before the impregnation with Co and Mo salt solution, was also considered. The presence of sodium favoured the phase transition of amorphous silica to cristobalite with con…
Post-synthesis alumination of MCM-41: Effect of the acidity on the HDS activity of supported Pd catalysts
2010
Abstract Siliceous MCM-41 with different amount of alumina, from 0.25 up to 4.0 wt%, were prepared by impregnation of the MCM-41 with aqueous solution of Al(NO) 3 ·9H 2 O. The modified mesoporous silicas were then used as supports for Pd catalysts prepared by wet-impregnation from PdCl 2 precursor. Supports and corresponding Pd catalysts were characterized by XRD, XPS and NH 3 -TPD. The catalytic behavior was tested in the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) reaction of thiophene. An increase of the hydrodesulfurization activity with increasing alumina amount up to 0.5 wt% was observed. On the basis of the acidity change of the support and the structural modification underwent by the deposited palla…
