Abstract

This study reports the beneficial effect of EDTA insertion at neutral pH on oxidized NiMo catalysts supported on Zr-SBA-15 with a theoretical molar ratio of Zr/Si = 0.07, synthesized by the sol–gel method. The support was impregnated with the precursor solutions of nickel nitrate and ammonium molybdate in order to obtain NiMo bimetallic catalysts with a theoretical molar ratio of Ni/(Ni + Mo) = 0.3. In addition, EDTA was incorporated as a chelating agent during the impregnation step with a theoretical molar ratio of Ni: EDTA = 1:1 adjusting the pH to neutral. The bimetallic catalysts were characterized at each step of the preparation (drying and calcination). XRD, N2 physisorption, and TEM analyses demonstrated that the incorporation of metals did not considerably affect the mesoporous morphology, as evidenced by the persistence of the support’s characteristic reflections. Both synthesized catalysts demonstrate adsorption–desorption isotherms type IV and H1-type hysteresis characteristic of mesoporous materials with uniform morphology. Likewise, EDTA at neutral pH increased the NiMoE/ZS07 catalyst’s specific surface area near 615 m2/g, 73% more than that of the catalyst without a chelating agent. FTIR analysis suggests the adsorption of nickel nitrate and ammonium molybdate salts and the thermal decomposition of EDTA. UV–Vis DRS and Raman spectroscopy analyses described that the addition of EDTA at neutral pH together with the calcination conditions significantly reduced the support-deposited species interaction and increased the interaction between metals. The use of the material as a hydrodesulfurization catalyst was enhanced by the modification of the oxidation state of the deposited oxidic molybdenum, as reported by XPS spectra analysis.

pH = 7时EDTA对nio /Zr-SBA-15催化剂加氢脱硫过程的影响
本研究报道了在中性pH下插入EDTA对Zr- sba -15负载氧化催化剂的有利影响,理论摩尔比为Zr/Si = 0.07,采用溶胶-凝胶法合成。用硝酸镍和钼酸铵的前驱体溶液浸渍载体,得到理论摩尔比为Ni/(Ni + Mo) = 0.3的NiMo双金属催化剂。此外,在浸渍过程中加入EDTA作为螯合剂,以Ni: EDTA = 1:1的理论摩尔比调节pH为中性。对制备双金属催化剂的各个步骤(干燥和煅烧)进行了表征。XRD, N2物理吸附和TEM分析表明,金属的掺入对介孔形貌没有显著影响,这可以从载体特征反射的持续存在中得到证明。两种合成的催化剂均表现出形貌均匀的介孔材料的吸附-解吸等温线IV型和h1型滞回特性。同样,中性pH下的EDTA使NiMoE/ZS07催化剂的比表面积增加到615 m2/g左右,比不添加螯合剂的催化剂的比表面积增加73%。FTIR分析表明,其对硝酸镍和钼酸铵有吸附作用,对EDTA有热分解作用。紫外-可见DRS和拉曼光谱分析表明,在中性pH下加入EDTA以及煅烧条件显著降低了载体-沉积物相互作用,增加了金属之间的相互作用。XPS光谱分析表明,通过改变沉积的氧化钼的氧化态,提高了该材料作为加氢脱硫催化剂的使用效率。EDTA在pH = 7时对ZS07载体上氧化相中Mo物质的分散有显著促进作用的示意图
