混合氧化物载体对反应吸附剂Ni/ZnO的影响

The effect of mixed oxide support on the performance of the reactive adsorption desulfurization (RADS) for Ni/ZnO was invested by using thiophene in model gasoline in a fixed bed reactor. A series of oxide supports of Ni/ZnO was synthesized by co-precipitation method and characterized by XRD, N2-adsorption, TPR and NH3-TPD. It was found that the desulfurization capacity of Ni/ZnO is enhanced greatly when active components were supported on proper mixed oxide. Ni/ZnO supported on oxides exhibits much higher desulfurization efficiency and sulfur adsorption capacity than unsupported Ni/ZnO and the synthesized Ni/ZnO-SA adsorbent exhibits the highest efficiency for thiophene removal. The higher desulfurization activity and sulfur capacity of Ni/ZnO supported on SiO2-Al2O3 with small particle size, high specific surface area and large pore volume promotes the highly dispersion of active metal phase and the transfer of sulfur to ZnO with lower mass transfer resistance. γ-Al2O3 can weaken the interaction of active phases and SiO2 as well as increasing greatly the amount of weak acid. Therefore, these oxides have a great influence on the structure and chemical properties of the catalyst.
