Abstract
Herein, a Zn-impregnated hydroxyapatite-activated carbon (Zn/HA-AC) composite catalyst was fabricated and was, in turn, applied for the desulfurization of a model and real oil samples via the integrated adsorptive-oxidative desulfurization strategy. Activity results revealed that Zn/HA and AC (25:75) realized 76.7% dibenzothiophene (DBT) adsorptive desulfurization at 50 °C in 60 min reaction time at an adsorbent dose of 0.14 g/20 mL of feed. Zn/HA-AC(25:75) composite catalyst was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, and scanning electron microscopy analysis. In the oxidative desulfurization (ODS) combined with adsorptive desulfurization experiments, under the optimum conditions of 45 oC temperature for 60 min and a catalyst dose of 0.1 g/20 mL of feed using H2O2 and HCOOH, Zn/HA-AC (25:75) achieved 93% DBT conversion. Under these optimized experimental parameters, the adsorptive desulfurization and catalytic ODS performance (% DBT conversion) of Zn/HA-AC (25:75) for real gasoline, kerosene, and diesel oil reached 18, 31 and 15%, and 31.66, 55.31 and 11.19%, respectively. Contrary to this, under the integrated catalytic-oxidative-adsorptive experiments, the desulfurization performance of Zn/HA-AC (25:75) for gasoline, kerosene, and diesel oil reached 61, 41, and 34%, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Sulfur Chemistry is an international journal for the dissemination of scientific results in the rapidly expanding realm of sulfur chemistry. The journal publishes high quality reviews, full papers and communications in the following areas: organic and inorganic chemistry, industrial chemistry, materials and polymer chemistry, biological chemistry and interdisciplinary studies directly related to sulfur science.
Papers outlining theoretical, physical, mechanistic or synthetic studies pertaining to sulfur chemistry are welcome. Hence the target audience is made up of academic and industrial chemists with peripheral or focused interests in sulfur chemistry. Manuscripts that truly define the aims of the journal include, but are not limited to, those that offer: a) innovative use of sulfur reagents; b) new synthetic approaches to sulfur-containing biomolecules, materials or organic and organometallic compounds; c) theoretical and physical studies that facilitate the understanding of sulfur structure, bonding or reactivity; d) catalytic, selective, synthetically useful or noteworthy transformations of sulfur containing molecules; e) industrial applications of sulfur chemistry; f) unique sulfur atom or molecule involvement in interfacial phenomena; g) descriptions of solid phase or combinatorial methods involving sulfur containing substrates. Submissions pertaining to related atoms such as selenium and tellurium are also welcome. Articles offering routine heterocycle formation through established reactions of sulfur containing substrates are outside the scope of the journal.
