For the sulfided Mo 0 catalyst containing no nickel as promoter, the only hydrogen sulfide evolution peak Ⅰ is observed at 462 K and attributed to the hydrogenation of the so called edge sulfur atoms chemisorbed on coordinatively unsaturated(cus) Mo x+ sites on the MoS 2 phase(MoS 2 slab). With the introduction of nickel into the active phase of the sulfided Mo 0 catalyst and with the increase of the molybdenum loading, a new hydrogen sulfide evolution peak Ⅱ gradually develops at the low temperature side of the peak Ⅰ, at the same time accompanied by both the increase of the area ratio of the peak Ⅱ to the peak Ⅰ and the shift of the hydrogen sulfide evolution maximum rate to lower temperatures, which may imply the existence of two kinds of active centers related to molybdenum and nickel respectively and the synergic action between the two centers above. It should be noted that for the sulfided NiMoP/ γ Al 2O 3 catalysts, the thiophene HDS rate and the quantity of hydrogen sulfide evolved during TPR process increase monotonously with the atomic ratio of molybdenum to nickel in the form of [ n (Ni)+ n (Mo)]/ n (Ni). On the basis of the results here, the conclusion may be reached that the two kinds of vacancies can be formed on the edge of Ni Mo S slab due to the loss of S during TPR process and vacancies or sites related to the H 2S evolution peak II should be regarded as the mainly active reaction centers of thiophene HDS.展开更多

Experimentally, it was found that no existence of the bands related to the surface complexes of Al 3+ ←CO and Pt 0←CO→Pt 0 was observed at 77 K and that the rate of the thiophene HDS reaction(573 K) is well linearly proportional to the area of the Pt 0←CO band at 2 093 cm -1 with a higher extrapolated HDS rate compared to that of sulfided Mo/ γ Al 2O 3 catalyst at the zero content of platinum. On the basis of the results here, the conclusion may be made that the active monolayer phase of Pt Mo S may be formed over sulfided PtMo/ γ Al 2O 3 catalysts during the sulfidation process and that both Mo 2+ and Pt 0 sites for CO adsorption should be the active reaction centers of thiophene HDS.展开更多
