Ultradeep hydrodesulfurization of fuel over superior NiMoS phases constructed by a novel Ni(MoS4)2(C13H30N)2 precursor

Ni(MoS4)2(C13H30N)2 was synthesized and adopted for preparing a NiMoS/γ-Al2O3 hydrodesulfurization catalyst, and the as-prepared catalyst exhibits superior 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization activity.

Facile fabrication, characterization and catalytic activity of a NiMo/Al2O3 nanocatalyst via a solution combustion method used in a low temperature hydrodesulfurization process: the effect of fuel to oxidant ratio

Novel bimetallic NiMo/Al2O3 nanocatalysts were fabricated via a solution combustion method to evaluate the role of fuel to oxidant molar ratios on their structural properties and hydrodesulfurization activity.

Epitaxial synthesis of Ni–MoS2/Ti3C2Tx MXene heterostructures for hydrodesulfurization

A facile and efficient method is adopted to intercalate promoter and few-layered MoS2 in Ti3C2Tx MXene for high hydrodesulfurization activity via an in situ thermal conversion process.

Effect of cerium content on textural and hydrodesulfurization performance for dibenzothiophene over a bulk Ni2P catalyst

A series of ceria promoted Ni2P catalysts were prepared and evaluated in dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization steam. These catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption–desorption, CO chemisorptions, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results showed that the addition of ceria into the bulk Ni2P catalyst was conducive to the formation of the Ni2P phase and contributed to a higher surface area, leading to a better dispersion and smaller crystallite size of Ni2P particles. The CexNi2P catalysts showed higher dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization activity than Ni2P catalyst and the Ce0.09Ni2P catalyst showed the highest dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization activity. The Ce0.09Ni2P catalyst showed a dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization conversion of 94.5% at the reaction conditions of 320°C, 4.0 MPa, a H2/oil ratio of 500 (V/V), and a weight hourly space velocity of 8.0 h−1. The dibenzothiophene was mainly transformed through desulfurization pathway.
