The DESs were characterized byFourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FT-IR), thermogravimetry/differential thermogravimetry (TG/DTG), andelectron spray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). The DESs were used as both extractants and catalysts to removedibenzothiophene from fuels via oxidative desulfurization (ODS). Experiments were performed to investigated the influenceof factors such as composition of DES, temperature, oxidant dosage (molar ratio of O:S), DES dosage (volume ratio ofDES:oil), and number of cycles on desulfurization rate. The results indicated that the removal rate of dibenzothiophene (DBT)was affected by the Lewis acidic DESs, with that of H_(3)PO_(4)/0.25∙ZnCl_(2) reaching 96.4% under optimal conditions (Voil=5 mL,VDES=1 mL, an oxidant dosage of 6, T=50 ℃). After six cycles, the desulfurization rate of H_(3)PO_(4)/0.25∙ZnCl_(2) remained above94.1%. The apparent activation energy of dibenzothiophene (DBT) removal reaction was determined by a pseudo-first orderkinetic equation according to the Arrhenius equation to be 32.34 kJ/mol, as estimated. A reaction mechanism is proposedbased on the experimental data and characterization results.展开更多

The catalyst was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, XPS and superconducting NMR. The influences of rn（catalyst）/m（oil）, V（H202）fV（oil）, reaction temperature and reaction time on the fractional conversion of benzothiophene （BT） and dibenzothiophene （DBT） were investigated. GC-MS and micra-coulometric methods were employed to investigate the reaction. The catalyst has high desulfurization activity in the removal of BT and DBT under mild conditions.

The effects of the oxidative system, loaded metal oxides, phase transfer catalyst, the addition of olefin and aromatics on sulfur removal were investigated in details. The results showed that the sulfur removal rate of simulated gasoline in the H202/formic acid system was higher than in other oxidative systems. The cerium oxide-loaded molecular sieve was found very active catalyst for oxidation of simulated gasoline in this system. The sulfur removal rates of C4H4S and 3-MC4H4S were enhanced when phase transfer catalyst （PTC） was added. However, the sulfur removal rate of simulated gasoline was reduced with the addition of olefin and aromatics.展开更多

A one-factor-at-a-time method was applied for optimizing the parameters such as temperature, reaction time, amount of catalyst, type of extractant and oxidant-tosulfur compounds（S-compounds） molar ratio. The corresponding products can be easily removed from the model oil by using ethanol as the best extractant. The results showed high catalytic activity of PW/KSF in the oxidative removal of dibenzothiophene（DBT） and mixed thiophenic model oil under atmospheric pressure at 75 ℃ in a biphasic system. To investigate the oxidation and adsorption effects of crude oil composition on ODS, the effects of cyclohexene, 1,7-octadiene and o-xylene with different concentrations were studied.展开更多

However, the direct extractive desulfurization of diesel oil by DESs cannot meet the government’s standard. In this work, amphiphilic polyoxometalates were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and mass spectrometry.The oxidative desulfurization results showed that benzothiophene(BT) could be completely removed by employing a [(CH)P(CH)]PMoO, DES(ChCl/2 Ac) and HOsystem. It was also found that the organic cation of catalysts played a positive role in oxidative desulfurization. The reaction conditions, such as reaction temperature and time, the amount of catalyst and DES and HO/S(O/S) molar ratio, were optimized. Different sulfides were tested to determine the desulfurization selectivity of the optimal reaction system, and it was found that 97.2% of dibenzothiophene(DBT) could be removed followed by 80.7% of 4-MDBT and 76.0% of 4,6-DMDBT. After reaction, the IR spectra showed that the catalyst [(CH)P(CH)]PMoOwas stable during the reaction process and the oxidative product was dibenzothiophene sulfone(DBTO). Furthermore, the catalyst can be regenerated and recycled for four runs with little loss of activity.展开更多

Different compositions of DESs were used and the polyethylene glycol 2000(PEG2000)/2.5 BSA system showed the highest desulfurization activity, with the removal of dibenzothiophene(DBT) at 60 ℃ reaching 95% in 60 min. The excellent desulfurization activity of the system is due to the in situ formation of peroxysulfonate via a biomimetic process. By constructing a coupled redox system, Fe-Anderson type POMs as ETMs reduce the activation energy of oxygen-activated sulfonate. The physical characteristics of four different DESs were tested. The results show that the conductivity of DESs is correlated with the composition of BSA-based DESs. However, there is no similar trend in viscosity testing at the same temperature, and the maximum viscosity value is obtained for the PEG2000/2.5 BSA system at 60 ℃, which may be associated with the stronger hydrogen bonds. It is worth noting that the PEG2000/2.5 BSA system also possesses the best desulfurization activity, which suggests that the activity of the desulfurization system is related to the strength of the hydrogen bond in DESs. Finally, the biomimetic desulfurization system exhibits excellent performance and good stability under mild reaction conditions(60 ℃, atmospheric pressure, oxygen as the oxidant).展开更多

These composites were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption, TEM, FTIR, and UV-vis, and were tested as catalysts in oxidation desulfurization of model fuel composed of dibenzothiophene （DBT） and hydrocarbon, using H202 as the oxidant. These composites exhibited high activity in catalytic oxidation of DBT in model fuel and good reusing ability. The best performance was achieved by using the mesoporous HPW/Al_2O_3 with 15wt% HPW content, which resulted in a DBT conversion of 98% after 2 h reaction at 343 K, and it did not show significant activity degradation after 3 recycles. Characterization results showed that the mesoporous structure of alumina and the Keggin structure of HPW were preserved in the formed composite. These results suggested that HPW/ Al_2O_3 could be a promising catalyst in oxidative desulfurization process.展开更多

The size of V2O3 nanoparticles is mostly equal to 10 nm-30 nm. The highest surface area of obtained V2O3 nanoparticles reaches 49 m2/g. Several kinds of V2O3 catalysts were prepared by different methods. All these V2O3 catalysts obtained thereby showed high catalytic activity for oxidative desulfurization(ODS) reaction by using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant. The V2O3 catalyst with a highest ODS activity was obtained under the following conditions: The catalyst was prepared upon using V2O5 as the vanadium source, methanol as the solvent, and oxalic acid as the complexing reagent at a V2O5/oxalic acid molar ratio of 1:2. The process for ODS of dibenzothiophene was carried out under mild conditions(under atmospheric pressure and at a relatively low temperature). The highest ODS activity of the obtained V2O3 nanoparticles can be attributed to their highest surface area.展开更多

However, the inherent bottlenecks, such as the low explosion of active sites, limit the application of bulk TMOs catalyst. In this study, V_(2)O_(5) nanoparticles with oxygen vacancies were prepared in large-scale via facile ball milling strategy with adding oxalic acid as a reducing agent. The as-prepared catalysts exhibit remarkable sulfur removal for oils with different initial S-concentrations and different substrates. Sulfur removal could reach up to 99.7%(< 2 ppm) under the optimized reaction conditions. This work provides a feasible desulfurization strategy for fuel oils.展开更多

The compositions and structures of the hybrid samples were characterized by various methods such as FT-IR, XPS, Raman,UV–Vis, wide-angle XRD and N2adsorption–desorption. The experimental results indicated that the hybrid materials presented a high dispersion of tungsten species and excellent catalytic activity for the removal of 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene without any organic solvent as extractant, and the sulfur removal could reach 100.0% under mild conditions.The catalytic performance on various substrates was also investigated in detail. After cycling seven cycles, the sulfur removal of the heterogeneous system still reached 93.0%. The GC-MS analysis results demonstrated that the sulfur compound was first adsorbed by the catalyst and subsequently oxidized to its corresponding sulfone.展开更多

The results showed that doping metals in the VO2(M) lattice could enhance the oxidative desulfurization(ODS) activity. The DSC and Raman spectra revealed that VO2(M) retained its monoclinic structure after doping. Mechanism for the improvement of ODS activity by doping was investigated. Electron transfer to V(V) atom occurs upon doping, and then V(V) changes into V(IV), which can promote the ODS reaction. This explanation can be confirmed by the fact that doping can promote the proportion of V(Ⅳ) after doping as revealed by the XPS analysis.展开更多

文摘A series of functional,tungsten-containing mesoporous silica materials（W-SiO2） have been fabricated directly from an ionic liquid that contained imidazole and polyoxometalate,which acted as mesoporous template and metal source respectively.These materials were then characterized through X-ray diffraction（XRD）,transmission electron microscopy（TEM）,Raman spectroscopy,Fourier transform infrared spectra（FTIR）,diffuse reflectance spectra（DRS）,and N2 adsorption-desorption,which were found to contain tungsten species that were effectively dispersed throughout the structure.The as-prepared materials W-SiO2 were also found to possess a mesoporous structure.The pore diameters of the respective sample W-SiO2-20 determined from the TEM images ranged from 2 to 4 nm,which was close to the average pore size determined from the nitrogen desorption isotherm（2.9 nm）.The materials were evaluated as catalysts for the heterogeneous oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene（DBT）,which is able to achieve deep desulfurization within 40 min under the optimal conditions（Catalyst（W-SiO2-20）= 0.01 g,temperature = 60℃,oxidant（H2O2）= 20 μL）.For the removal of different organic sulfur compounds within oil,the ability of the catalyst（W-SiO2-20） under the same conditions to remove sulfur compounds decreased in the order：4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene Dibenzothiophene Benzothiophene 1-dodecanethiol.Additionally,they did not require organic solvents as an extractant in the heterogeneous oxidative desulfurization process.After seven separate catalytic cycles,the desulfurization efficiency was still as high as 90.3%.From the gas chromatography-mass spectrometer analysis,DBT was entirely oxidized to its corresponding sulfone DBTO2 after reaction.A mechanism for the heterogeneous desulfurization reaction was proposed.

文摘A highly active catalyst of phosphomolybdic acid ~HPMo） was prepared and applied in the catalytic oxidative desulfurization （CODS） system. The catalyst was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, XPS and superconducting NMR. The influences of rn（catalyst）/m（oil）, V（H202）fV（oil）, reaction temperature and reaction time on the fractional conversion of benzothiophene （BT） and dibenzothiophene （DBT） were investigated. GC-MS and micra-coulometric methods were employed to investigate the reaction. The catalyst has high desulfurization activity in the removal of BT and DBT under mild conditions. The recycling experiments indicated that DBT and BT removal could still reach 95.2% and 95.7% after 10 cycles.

文摘A simulated gasoline consisting of model sulfur compounds of thiophene （C4H4S） and 3-methythiophene （3-MC4H4S） dissolved in n-heptane was tested for the oxidative desulfurization in the hydrogen peroxide （H202） and formic acid oxidative system over metal oxide-loaded molecular sieve. The effects of the oxidative system, loaded metal oxides, phase transfer catalyst, the addition of olefin and aromatics on sulfur removal were investigated in details. The results showed that the sulfur removal rate of simulated gasoline in the H202/formic acid system was higher than in other oxidative systems. The cerium oxide-loaded molecular sieve was found very active catalyst for oxidation of simulated gasoline in this system. The sulfur removal rates of C4H4S and 3-MC4H4S were enhanced when phase transfer catalyst （PTC） was added. However, the sulfur removal rate of simulated gasoline was reduced with the addition of olefin and aromatics.

文摘The oxidative desulfurization of a real refinery feedstock (i.e.,non-hydrotreated kerosene with total sulfur mass content of 0.16%) with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid was studied.The influences of various operating parameters including reaction temperature (T),acid to sulfur molar ratio (nacid/nS),and oxidant to sulfur molar ratio (nO/nS) on the sulfur removal of kerosene were investigated.The results revealed that an increase in the reaction temperature (T) and nacid/nS enhances the sulfur removal.Moreover,there is an optimum nO/nS related to the reaction temperature and the best sulfur removal could be obtained at nO/nS=8 and 23 for the reaction temperatures of 25 and 60°C,respectively.The maximum observed sulfur removal in the present oxidative desulfurization system was 83.3%.
文摘Platinum group metals(PGMs)usually exhibit promising aerobic catalytic abilities,providing a green and feasible oxidative desulfurization method.However,often,the PGM nanoparticles(NPs)get leached,and the catalysts are deactivated.In this work,Pt NPs with particle sizes of approximately 4–5 nm were encapsulated effectively and uniformly on the surface of vanadium pentoxide(V2O5)nanosheets(with thicknesses of approximately six atomic layers)through strong metal-support interactions.The synthesized catalysts promote catalytic aerobic oxidation reactions,realizing deep desulfurization(99.1%,<5μg g^(–1))under atmospheric pressure and 110℃reaction temperature.Remarkable degrees of sulfur removal could be achieved for oils with different initial S-concentrations and substrates.Additionally,the as-prepared catalysts could be recycled for reuse at least seven times.

文摘High-sulfur petroleum coke(HSPC),that is a by-product from slag oil in the coking process of refning,shows versatility values in practical applications and,however,concentrates the majority of organic sulfur.Herein,we design and construct a highly efective CTAB@HPA composites to be explored for the catalytic oxidative desulfurization of HSPC under mild conditions using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole tetrafuoroborate ionic liquid as the extractant.The results demonstrate that the sulfur content of HSPC could be strikingly reduced from 4.46 wt%to 2.48 wt%under 60℃ and atmospheric pressure,and that the organic sulfur in HSPC is mainly oxidized to sulfoxide,sulfone and sulfate,which latter can be directly separated from petroleum coke.Moreover,the efect of reaction conditions on the desulfurization performance of HSPC as well as the catalytic oxidation reaction kinetic of HSPC desulfurization was systematically investigated.Furthermore,a mechanism for the oxidative desulfurization of HSPC over CTAB@HPA catalysts was proposed.Therefore,this work provides new insight into how to construct active catalysts for the desulfurization of HSPC under mild conditions.

文摘12-Tungstophosphoric acid（PW） supported on KSF montmorillonite, PW/KSF, was used as catalyst for deep oxidative desulfurization（ODS） of mixed thiophenic compounds in model oil and crude oil under mild conditions using hydrogen peroxide（H2O2） as an oxidizing agent. A one-factor-at-a-time method was applied for optimizing the parameters such as temperature, reaction time, amount of catalyst, type of extractant and oxidant-tosulfur compounds（S-compounds） molar ratio. The corresponding products can be easily removed from the model oil by using ethanol as the best extractant. The results showed high catalytic activity of PW/KSF in the oxidative removal of dibenzothiophene（DBT） and mixed thiophenic model oil under atmospheric pressure at 75 ℃ in a biphasic system. To investigate the oxidation and adsorption effects of crude oil composition on ODS, the effects of cyclohexene, 1,7-octadiene and o-xylene with different concentrations were studied.

文摘Deep eutectic solvents(DESs) are a new class of green solvents analogous to ionic liquids due to their biodegradable capacity and low cost. However, the direct extractive desulfurization of diesel oil by DESs cannot meet the government’s standard. In this work, amphiphilic polyoxometalates were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and mass spectrometry.The oxidative desulfurization results showed that benzothiophene(BT) could be completely removed by employing a [(CH)P(CH)]PMoO, DES(ChCl/2 Ac) and HOsystem. It was also found that the organic cation of catalysts played a positive role in oxidative desulfurization. The reaction conditions, such as reaction temperature and time, the amount of catalyst and DES and HO/S(O/S) molar ratio, were optimized. Different sulfides were tested to determine the desulfurization selectivity of the optimal reaction system, and it was found that 97.2% of dibenzothiophene(DBT) could be removed followed by 80.7% of 4-MDBT and 76.0% of 4,6-DMDBT. After reaction, the IR spectra showed that the catalyst [(CH)P(CH)]PMoOwas stable during the reaction process and the oxidative product was dibenzothiophene sulfone(DBTO). Furthermore, the catalyst can be regenerated and recycled for four runs with little loss of activity.
文摘A unique redox-coupled biomimetic system was developed, in which Fe-Anderson type polyoxometalates(POMs) were employed as electron transfer mediators(ETMs) and benzenesulfonic acid(BSA)-based deep eutectic solvents(DESs) were used as electron-donors for aerobic oxidative desulfurization(AODS) of diesel fuel. Different compositions of DESs were used and the polyethylene glycol 2000(PEG2000)/2.5 BSA system showed the highest desulfurization activity, with the removal of dibenzothiophene(DBT) at 60 ℃ reaching 95% in 60 min. The excellent desulfurization activity of the system is due to the in situ formation of peroxysulfonate via a biomimetic process. By constructing a coupled redox system, Fe-Anderson type POMs as ETMs reduce the activation energy of oxygen-activated sulfonate. The physical characteristics of four different DESs were tested. The results show that the conductivity of DESs is correlated with the composition of BSA-based DESs. However, there is no similar trend in viscosity testing at the same temperature, and the maximum viscosity value is obtained for the PEG2000/2.5 BSA system at 60 ℃, which may be associated with the stronger hydrogen bonds. It is worth noting that the PEG2000/2.5 BSA system also possesses the best desulfurization activity, which suggests that the activity of the desulfurization system is related to the strength of the hydrogen bond in DESs. Finally, the biomimetic desulfurization system exhibits excellent performance and good stability under mild reaction conditions(60 ℃, atmospheric pressure, oxygen as the oxidant).

文摘A series of mesoporous phosphotungstic acid/alumina composites （HPW/Al_2O_3） with various HPW contents were synthesized by evaporation-induced self-assembly method. These composites were characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption, TEM, FTIR, and UV-vis, and were tested as catalysts in oxidation desulfurization of model fuel composed of dibenzothiophene （DBT） and hydrocarbon, using H202 as the oxidant. These composites exhibited high activity in catalytic oxidation of DBT in model fuel and good reusing ability. The best performance was achieved by using the mesoporous HPW/Al_2O_3 with 15wt% HPW content, which resulted in a DBT conversion of 98% after 2 h reaction at 343 K, and it did not show significant activity degradation after 3 recycles. Characterization results showed that the mesoporous structure of alumina and the Keggin structure of HPW were preserved in the formed composite. These results suggested that HPW/ Al_2O_3 could be a promising catalyst in oxidative desulfurization process.

文摘V2O3 nanoparticles with high surface area have been successfully prepared by a new solvothermal method without using any surfactant and template. The size of V2O3 nanoparticles is mostly equal to 10 nm-30 nm. The highest surface area of obtained V2O3 nanoparticles reaches 49 m2/g. Several kinds of V2O3 catalysts were prepared by different methods. All these V2O3 catalysts obtained thereby showed high catalytic activity for oxidative desulfurization(ODS) reaction by using tert-butyl hydroperoxide as the oxidant. The V2O3 catalyst with a highest ODS activity was obtained under the following conditions: The catalyst was prepared upon using V2O5 as the vanadium source, methanol as the solvent, and oxalic acid as the complexing reagent at a V2O5/oxalic acid molar ratio of 1:2. The process for ODS of dibenzothiophene was carried out under mild conditions(under atmospheric pressure and at a relatively low temperature). The highest ODS activity of the obtained V2O3 nanoparticles can be attributed to their highest surface area.

文摘In recent years, transition-metal oxides(TMOs) have been long employed for aerobic oxidative desulfurization. However, the inherent bottlenecks, such as the low explosion of active sites, limit the application of bulk TMOs catalyst. In this study, V_(2)O_(5) nanoparticles with oxygen vacancies were prepared in large-scale via facile ball milling strategy with adding oxalic acid as a reducing agent. The as-prepared catalysts exhibit remarkable sulfur removal for oils with different initial S-concentrations and different substrates. Sulfur removal could reach up to 99.7%(< 2 ppm) under the optimized reaction conditions. This work provides a feasible desulfurization strategy for fuel oils.

文摘With the aim of deep desulfurization, silica-supported polyoxometalate-based ionic liquids were successfully prepared by a one-pot hydrothermal process and employed in heterogeneous oxidative desulfurization of various sulfur compounds. The compositions and structures of the hybrid samples were characterized by various methods such as FT-IR, XPS, Raman,UV–Vis, wide-angle XRD and N2adsorption–desorption. The experimental results indicated that the hybrid materials presented a high dispersion of tungsten species and excellent catalytic activity for the removal of 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene without any organic solvent as extractant, and the sulfur removal could reach 100.0% under mild conditions.The catalytic performance on various substrates was also investigated in detail. After cycling seven cycles, the sulfur removal of the heterogeneous system still reached 93.0%. The GC-MS analysis results demonstrated that the sulfur compound was first adsorbed by the catalyst and subsequently oxidized to its corresponding sulfone.

文摘PTA/UiO-66 composites were successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal method.The results showed that the synergistic effect between phosphotungstic acid(PTA)and UiO-66 could enhance the oxidative desulfurization(ODS)activity.The XRD results proved that UiO-66 retained its structure in the PTA/UiO-66 composites.The SEM results showed that the PTA/UiO-66 catalysts exhibited regular octahedral shape.The Raman spectra revealed that PTA in the composites retained the Keggin structure.The XPS results showed that the electron transfer occurred from Zr-MOF to PTA.The ODS reaction mechanism was discussed.Electrons transfer from Zr-MOF to PTA can promote the generation of active species(·OH)and thus enhance the ODS activity.This explanation can be confirmed by the formation of oxygen vacancy and W0 as revealed by the XPS analysis.

文摘VO2(M) doped with different metals(Ti, Ce, Nb, Zr, W, and Mo) was successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal reduction process using oxalic acid as the reductant. The results showed that doping metals in the VO2(M) lattice could enhance the oxidative desulfurization(ODS) activity. The DSC and Raman spectra revealed that VO2(M) retained its monoclinic structure after doping. Mechanism for the improvement of ODS activity by doping was investigated. Electron transfer to V(V) atom occurs upon doping, and then V(V) changes into V(IV), which can promote the ODS reaction. This explanation can be confirmed by the fact that doping can promote the proportion of V(Ⅳ) after doping as revealed by the XPS analysis.

文摘A facile approach to the preparation of a novel magnetically separable H_5PMo_（10）V_2O_（40）/Fe_3O_4/g-C_3N_4（PMoV/Fe_3O_4/g-C_3N_4） nanocomposite by chemical impregnation is demonstrated.The prepared nanocomposite was characterized and its acidity was measured by potentiometric titration.PMoV/Fe_3O_4/g-C_3N_4 showed high catalytic activity in the selective oxidative desulfurization of sulfides to their corresponding sulfoxides or sulfones.The catalytic oxidation of a dibenzothiophene（DBT）-containing model oil and that of real oil were also studied under optimized conditions.In addition,the effects of various nitrogen compounds,as well as the use of one- and two-ring aromatic hydrocarbons as co-solvents,on the catalytic removal of sulfur from DBT were investigated.The catalyst was easily separated and could be recovered from the reaction mixture by using an external magnetic field.Additionally,the remaining reactants could be separated from the products by simple decantation if an appropriate solvent was chosen for the extraction.The advantages of this nanocatalyst are its high catalytic activity and reusability;it can be used at least four times without considerable loss of activity.
