Through studying the mechanism for oxidation of sulfides and the principle of solvent extraction,the kinetic equation of desulfurization via oxidative extraction were determined. By means of the evaluation of model parameters and curve fitting,the reaction order between organic sulfide and sulfone,the intrinsic oxidation rate constant of organic sulfide and sulfone,and the equilibrium constant between sulfone in model diesel and extractive solvent were determined. The experimental values of the desulfurization rate and the theoretical values of the corresponding model equation had closely demonstrated that the desulfurization reaction rate had high accuracy. And the reaction kinetics could provide an important basis for diesel desulfurization process in the future.展开更多

TPHC, as a catalyst, was used in oxidative desulfurization of diesel. The results show that TPHC has catalytic activity. With THPC existing, the highest desulfurization rate reaches 51.85%, 32.6% higher than that yield without TPHC. And the desulfiarization rate increases with decreasing WO3. FT-IR spectra of TPHC shows that the catalytic activity is related to the activity of end oxygen(Od).The more active Od is, the stronger the capability of obtaining or losing electron is. It means that TPHC has a good catalytic activity. FT-IR spectra of TPHC indicates that desulfurization rate is in linear correlation with Iw-Od/Ip-Od/ Iw-Od is intensity of W-Od vibration band, Ip-Od is intensity of P-Od vibration band) and correlation coefficient reaches 0.965.展开更多

It is found that reaction activities of CuO supported on γ-Al2O3 could be highly improved. Desulfurization kinetics of CuO/γ-Al2O3 was studied in the temperature range of 250 °C-400 °C and SO2 concentration of 0.1%-0.9%. The experimental data were tested and compared with kinetics models of volume reaction model(VRM), grain size model(GSM), random pore model(RPM) and pore-blocking model(PBM). Correlation analysis shows that VRM and RPM models do not fit experimental data well. GSM contradicts with the changes in the physical and chemical properties of Cu O/γ-Al2O3 as the desulfurization proceeds. It is found that PBM is consistent with the change of pore structure of CuO/γ-Al2O3 sorbent during desulfurization process and predicts the conversion-time curves of the sorbent well. Meanwhile, kinetics parameters are obtained and discussed.展开更多

The reaction mechanism ofthiophene oxidation was proposed. Results obtained here can be used as the reference for the oxidative desulfurization of gasoline because thiophene is one of the main components containing sulfur in fluid catalytic cracking gasoline. Thiophene dissolved in n-octane was photodecomposed and removed into the water phase at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure. A 500 W high-pressure mercury lamp (main wave length 365 nm, 0.22 kW/m) was used as light source for irradiation, and air was introduced by a gas pump to supply O2. Thiophene can be photo-oxidized to sulfone, oxalic acid, SO4^2-, and CO2. The desulfurization yield of thiophene in n-octane is 58.9% under photo-irradiation for 5 h under the conditions of air flow at 150 mL/min and V(water):V(n-octane)=1:1. It can be improved to 92.3% by adding 0.15 g zeoliteartificial into 100 mL reaction system, which is the adsorbent for O2 and thiophene. And under such conditions, the photo-oxidation kinetics of thiophene with O2/zeoliteartificial is first-order with an apparent rate constant of 0.5047 h^-1 and a half-time of 1.37 h. The sulfur content can be depressed from 800 μL/L to less than 62 μL/L.展开更多

However, the direct extractive desulfurization of diesel oil by DESs cannot meet the government’s standard. In this work, amphiphilic polyoxometalates were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and mass spectrometry.The oxidative desulfurization results showed that benzothiophene(BT) could be completely removed by employing a [(CH)P(CH)]PMoO, DES(ChCl/2 Ac) and HOsystem. It was also found that the organic cation of catalysts played a positive role in oxidative desulfurization. The reaction conditions, such as reaction temperature and time, the amount of catalyst and DES and HO/S(O/S) molar ratio, were optimized. Different sulfides were tested to determine the desulfurization selectivity of the optimal reaction system, and it was found that 97.2% of dibenzothiophene(DBT) could be removed followed by 80.7% of 4-MDBT and 76.0% of 4,6-DMDBT. After reaction, the IR spectra showed that the catalyst [(CH)P(CH)]PMoOwas stable during the reaction process and the oxidative product was dibenzothiophene sulfone(DBTO). Furthermore, the catalyst can be regenerated and recycled for four runs with little loss of activity.展开更多

It was found that the three adsorbents are capable of effectively removing sulfur compounds at different feed sulfur concentrations. The effects of height to diameter aspect ratio of the adsorption column,flow rate of LPG and input sulfur concentrations have been studied. A first order kinetics model has been used to describe the adsorption,and the kinetics constant was found to increase by increasing the flow rate of LPG and decrease by increasing the amount of adsorbent used. The developed model described the system fairly well,and can be used in designing and scaling-up of fixed-bed adsorption columns.展开更多
