Preparation of Solid Superacid Catalysts and Oil Oxidative Desulfurization Using K2FeO4

Resumo

A \(\rm{SO_4^{2-}}\)/MCM-41 superacid catalyst was prepared by impregnation and characterized by various methods. A novel procedure for oxidative desulfurization of simulated light fuel oil using K₂FeO₄ over \(\rm{SO_4^{2-}}\)/MCM-41 was developed. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and low-angle X-ray diffractometry (XRD) show that the material synthesized by the precipitation-sol-hydrothermal method is mobil composition of matter no. 41 (MCM-41). Thermogravimetry/differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA) shows that when the calcination temperature is higher than 300°.
