摘要
Zeolites NaY and Ce（IV）Y were employed as adsorbents to remove organic sulfur compounds from model gasoline （MG） solutions with and without toluene in static adsorption experiments at room temperature （RT） and atmospheric pressure. The adsorbents were characterized by XRD, XRF and pyridine infrared spectrum （IR）. The adsorption experiments show that the desulfurization performance of Ce（IV）Y is much better than that of NaY. The sulfur removal over both NaY and Ce（IV）Y decreases with the increase of toluene concentration in MG, however, the decline tendency on Ce（IV）Y is smooth, and it is steep on NaY. FT-IR spectra of thiophene adsorption indicate that thiophene molecules are mainly adsorbed on NaY via π electron interaction, but on Ce（IV）Y, in addition to the π electron interaction, both Ce^4＋-S direct interaction and protonation of thiophene also play important roles. Toluene molecules are adsorbed on NaY also via π electron interaction. Although the amount of Bronsted acid sites is increased due to the introduction of Ce^4＋ ions into NaY zeolite, it is not found to influence the adsorption mode of toluene over Ce（IV）Y. Compared with NaY zeolite, the improved desulfurization performance over Ce（IV）Y for removing organic sulfur compounds from MG solution, especially those containing large amount of aromatics, may be ascribed to the direct Ce（IV）-S interaction, which is much resistant to the influence resulted from toluene adsorption.
