摘要
A carbon-based sulfonated catalyst was prepared by direct sulfonation and carbonization （in moderate conditions：200 ＆#176;C, 12 h） of red liquor solids, a by-product of paper-making process. The prepared sulfonated cata-lyst （SC） had aromatic structure, composed of carbon enriched inner core, and oxygen-containing （SO3H, COOH, OH） groups enriched surface. The SO3H, COOH, OH groups amounted to 0.74 mmol·g^-1, 0.78 mmol·g^-1, 2.18 mmol·g^-1, respectively. The fresh SC showed much higher catalytic activity than that of the traditional solid acid catalysts （strong-acid 732 cation exchange resin, hydrogen type zeolite socony mobile-five （HZSM-5）, sulfated zir-conia） in esterification of oleic acid. SC was deactivated during the reactions, through the mechanisms of leaching of sulfonated species and formation of sulfonate esters. Two regeneration methods were developed, and the catalytic activity can be mostly regenerated by regeneration Method 1 and be fully regenerated by regeneration Method 2, respectively.
Hierarchically macro-/mesoporous structured Al2O3 and TiO2-Al2O3 materials were used as supports to prepare novel Co-Mo-Ni hydrodesulfurization(HDS) catalysts. A commercial Co-Mo-Ni/Al2O3 catalyst without macroporous channels was taken as a reference. The catalysts were characterized by scanning electron microscope(SEM), transmission electron microscope(TEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry(EDS), N2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction(XRD), and temperature programmed reduction(TPR). The apparent activities of the hierarchi-cally porous catalysts for thiophene HDS were superior to those of the commercial catalyst, which was mainly as-cribed to the diffusion-enhanced effect of the hierarchically bimodal pore structure. The addition of titania to alu-mina in the support helped to weaken the interaction between the active phase and the support, and as a result, the novel Co-Mo-Ni/TiO2-Al2O3 catalyst with a low titania loading(28%, by mass) in the support exhibited high HDS activities, even without presulfiding treatment. However, the catalyst with a high titania loading(61%, by mass) showed much lower activities, which was mostly caused by its low surface area and pore volume as well as the non-uniform distribution of titania and alumina. The kinetic analysis further demonstrated the support effects on HDS activities of the catalysts.
