The effect of Si incorporation at the stage of alumina preparation on the physico-chemical properties and catalytic performance of NiMo/Al2O3 catalysts for FCC feedstock pretreatment was studied. Silicon addition changed the texture characteristics of the support and reduced the acidity of alumina. Incorporation of Si facilitated the segregation of Ni from the NiMoS phase. Addition of Si through kneading improved the hydrodesulfurization activity of the catalysts in VGO hydrotreating.
The effect of Si incorporation at the stage of alumina preparation on physico-chemical properties and catalytic performance of NiMo/Al2O3 catalysts for FCC feedstock pretreatment has been studied. Silicon was added to alumina support by kneading. Si/Al molar ratio was 0-0.16. Supports and catalysts were characterized by XRD, MAS NMR spectroscopy, Raman and IR spectroscopies, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, HRTEM, UV-Vis DRS, XPS. Introduction of Si changes textural characteristics of supports and leads to the decrease in acidity of parent alumina caused by blocking of a part of surface OH groups by deposits of silicon compounds. Silicon addition promotes the formation of small amount of strong LAS and strong BAS. Incorporation of Si facilitates segregation of Ni from the NiMoS phase. Testing of catalysts in VGO hydrotreating shows that addition of silicon to alumina support by kneading improves hydrodesulfurization activity of catalysts. However, an improvement in HDN activity was not achieved.

Maxim O. Kazakov, Marina Yu. Smirnova, Maxim E. Dubinin, Tatyana S. Bogomolova, Pavel P. Dik, Ivan S. Golubev, Mikhail E. Revyakin, Oleg V. Klimov, Aleksandr S. Noskov

Summary: The study investigates the combined effect of three-dimensional large-pore USY zeolite and one-dimensional medium-pore ZSM-23 zeolite in enhancing the cold flow properties of hydrocracking products. By selecting the catalyst compositions based on monozeolite catalysts testing, which operate in a similar temperature range and contribute to hexadecane conversion, it is shown that the appropriate combination of USY and ZSM-23 zeolites can complement each other and improve the conversion of both n-alkanes and iso-alkanes during vacuum gas oil hydrocracking. As a result, the cold flow properties of the obtained hydrocracking products are significantly improved while maintaining the activity and selectivity for the target products. The improvement in cold flow properties is accompanied by only a slight worsening of other important product characteristics.

Summary: The mesoporous MgAl2O4 support was doped with transition metal cations (Fe, Cr, Ti) to prevent the incorporation of Ni and rare-earth cations (Pr, Ce, Zr) and provide additional CO2 activation sites to prevent coking. The doped MgAl1.9Me0.1O4 (Me = Fe, Ti, Cr) mesoporous supports exhibited single-phase spinels with varying specific surface areas. Doped supports showed higher efficiency and coking stability in methane dry reforming and ethanol steam reforming compared to undoped supports and Ni-containing catalysts.

Summary: Non-conventional amines are being researched worldwide to overcome the limitations of traditional amines like MEA and MDEA. Adequate process and thermodynamic models are crucial for understanding the applicability and performance of these amines in CO2 absorption, but studies on process modeling for these amines are limited. This study used rate-based modeling and Deshmukh-Mather method to model CO2 absorption by DETA solution in a packed column, validated the model with experimental data, and conducted a sensitivity analysis of mass transfer correlations. The study also compared the CO2 absorption efficiency of DETA solution with an ionic solvent [bmim]-[PF6] and highlighted the importance of finding optimum operational parameters for maximum absorption efficiency.

Arastoo Abdi, Mohamad Awarke, M. Reza Malayeri, Masoud Riazi

Summary: The utilization of smart water in EOR operations has gained attention, but more research is needed to understand the complex mechanisms involved. This study investigated the interfacial tension between smart water and crude oil, considering factors such as salt, pH, asphaltene type, and aged smart water. The results revealed that the hydration of ions in smart water plays a key role in its efficacy, with acidic and basic asphaltene acting as intrinsic surfactants. The pH also influenced the interfacial tension, and the aged smart water's interaction with crude oil depended on asphaltene type, salt, and salinity.

Zonghui Liu, Zhongze Zhang, Yali Zhou, Ziling Wang, Mingyang Du, Zhe Wen, Bing Yan, Qingxiang Ma, Na Liu, Bing Xue

Summary: In this study, high-performance solid catalysts based on phosphotungstic acid (HPW) supported on Zr-SBA-15 were synthesized and evaluated for the one-pot conversion of furfural (FUR) to γ-valerolactone (GVL). The catalysts were characterized using various techniques, and the ratio of HPW and Zr was found to significantly affect the selectivity of GVL. The HPW/Zr-SBA-15 (2-4-15) catalyst exhibited the highest GVL yield (83%) under optimized reaction conditions, and it was determined that a balance between Bronsted acid sites (BAS) and Lewis acid sites (LAS) was crucial for achieving higher catalytic performance.
