Hydrogenation of ethylene on a Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst at 353 K and atmospheric pressure has been studied. The unsteady-state method was used, in which reactor feed-rate and feed-composition were changed in a defined way. The analysis of transient response curves proved negligible adsorption of hydrogen and ethane and confirmed the reaction mechanism of ethylene hydrogenation which involves reaction of adsorbed ethylene with hydrogen from gas phase in the rate determining step. Combined stationary and transient experimental data were used to calculate kinetic parameters: rate constant of ethylene hydrogenation, total concentration of active sites on the catalyst surface and equilibrium adsorption coefficient of ethylene.

Hydrogenation has been studied of ethylene and butene in a circulation flow reactor on a cobalt-molybdenum catalyst at 360 °C and atmospheric pressure. The effect has been investigated of simultaneous hydrodesulphurization of thiophene on the hydrogenation. The results have confirmed that different active sites for hydrogenation and hydrodesulphurization must be considered in the kinetic description of simultaneous hydrogenation of ethylene and hydrodesulphurization of thiophene. For isolated hydrogenation of ethylene and butene the absence of hydrogen sulphide in the reaction mixture considerably enhances the hydrogenation activity of the catalyst due to the change of its state.

Oxygen chemisorption by pulse dynamic method at room temperature and the activity for ethylene hydrogenation at 300 °C in a flow regime were determined for Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst CHEROX 36-01 sulphided by a H2S/H2 (1:10) mixture at 400 °C. The measurements were carried out either immediately after sulphidation or after subsequent reduction of the sulphided catalyst by hydrogen. The chemisorption of oxygen was measured both prior to and after the catalytic reaction. In addition, the reactivation of the catalyst was examined after its passivation by oxygen chemisorption. The reactivation was effected either by resulphidation or by reduction with hydrogen at 400 °C, on repeated reactivation also by combination of both procedures, variables being the time of activation and reactivation steps. The results are discussed from the standpoint of the structure and interrelation between active sites for oxygen chemisorption and catalytic, especially hydrogenation reactions. Formation of coordinately unsaturated sites and SH groups is emphasized. The reasons of possible failures in correlations between chemisorption capacity for oxygen and catalytic activity are mentioned.

The processes of reduction and sulphidation of an industrial Co-Mo/Al2O3 catalyst have been studied by means of gravimetric and kinetic methods at atmospheric pressure. The effect of the pretreatment temperature on the catalytic activity for ethylene hydrogenation and thiophene hydrodesulphurization has been studied. Two types of active centres, for hydrogenation and for hydrodesulphurization, have been characterized on the basis of their different properties.

The kinetics of the reduction of NO and N2O by ammonia on a V2O5/Al2O3 catalyst (15 mass % V2O5) have been measured over the temperature range 300-480 °C at atmospheric pressure. The presence of water vapour in the reaction mixture retards the reduction rates of both NO and N2O. The oxidation state of vanadium does not change within the concentration and temperature ranges investigated. From the results for the reaction kinetics and the oxidation state of vanadium it is concluded that the reduction of NO and N2O by ammonia occurs by the associative Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism with the surface reaction as the rate-determining step.

: The presence of relatively high naphthenic acid in crude oil may contribute to the major corrosion in oil pipelines and distillation units in crude oil refineries. Thus, high concentration Naphthenic Acids crude oil is considered tobe of low quality and is marketed at lower prices. In order to overcome this problem, neutralization method had been developed to reduce the TAN value in crude oil. In this study, crude oil from Petronas Penapisan Melaka was investigated. The parameters studied were reagent concentration, catalyst loading, calcination temperature and reusability of the potential catalyst. Basic chemical used were 2- methylimidazole in polyethylene glycol (PEG 600) with concentration 100, 500 and 1000 ppm. Cerium oxide-based catalysts supported onto alumina prepared with different calcination temperatures. The catalyst was characterized by using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Thermogravimetry Analysis-Differential Thermal Gravity (TGA-DTG) to study physical properties of the catalyst. The Ce/Al2O3 catalyst calcined at 1000°C was the best catalyst due to larger surface area formation which lead to increment of active sites thus will boost the catalytic activity. The result showed that the Ce/Al2O3 catalyst meet Petronas requirement as the TAN value reduced to 0.6 mgKOH/g from original TAN value of 4.22 mgKOH/g. The best reduction of TAN was achieved by using catalyst loading of 0.39% and reagent of 1000 ppm.

Kinetics have been studied of the reaction system taking place during the reaction of thiophene on the cobalt-molybdenum catalyst in a gradientless circulation flow reactor at 360 °C and atmospheric pressure. Butane has been found present in a small amount in the reaction products even at very low conversion. In view of this, consecutive and parallel-consecutive (triangular) reaction schemes have been proposed. In the former scheme the appearance of butane is accounted for by rate of desorption of butene being comparable with the rate of its hydrogenation. According to the latter scheme part of the butane originates from thiophene via a different route than through hydrogenation of butene. Analysis of the kinetic data has revealed that the reaction of thiophene should be considered to take place on other active sites than that of butene. Kinetic equations derived on this assumption for the consecutive and the triangular reaction schemes correlate experimental data with acceptable accuracy.

The direct synthesis of benzimidazoles from 2-nitroaniline and ethanol over Cu-Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalysts has the advantages of requiring easily available starting materials, having high efficiency, and a simple procedure. The modification by Mg of the Cu-Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalyst could improve the catalytic activity significantly. The addition of Mg to the Cu-Pd/γ-Al2O3 catalyst could maintain and promote the formation of CuPd alloy active sites. Meanwhile, the basicity of the support was enhanced appropriately by Mg, which generated more basic sites (Al-Oδ−) to accelerate the dehydrogenation of alcohol and increased the rate of the whole coupled reaction. The 2-nitroaniline was completely converted over Cu-Pd/(Mg)γ-Al2O3 after reacting for six hours, and the yield of 2-methylbenzimidazole was 98.8%. The results of this work provide a simple method to develop a more efficient catalyst for the “alcohol-dehydrogenation, hydrogen transfer and hydrogenation” coupled reaction system.

The influence of incorporating a small amount of silica on the catalytic performance of MoO3/Al2O3 catalyst was studied. Molybdenum supported on pure alumina and 5% SiO2-Al2O3 supports were synthesized. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, Raman, UV-Vis and IR spectroscopies, FE-SEM microscopy, and their activity was evaluated in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde. Molybdenum supported on pure alumina gives a 74% yield to acetaldehyde (at 573 K) due to the generation of oxy-dehydrogenation active sites by molybdenum and to the decrement of the alumina dehydration sites. For the molybdenum catalyst supported on silica-containing alumina, the molybdenum species were displaced from the strongest alumina’s acid-base couples, located on nanoparticles edges, corners and defects, to weaker ones located on plane faces causing the rise of weakly bonded species with less active redox behavior.
