Abstract

In this study, composite layer double hydroxide-metal oxide catalysts (Ni/Al-TiO2 and Ni/Al-ZnO) were successfully prepared and utilized for the oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene. The catalysts were characterized using XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDS analysis. The diffraction patterns confirmed the successful synthesis of the composite materials, while the FTIR spectra exhibited absorption bands at specific wavenumbers 3480 cm-1, 1630 cm-1, 1376 cm-1, 830 cm-1, 775 cm-1, and 683 cm-1. The surface morphology of the catalysts showed variations, with Ni/Al-LDH having a smooth particle surface and long particle shape, while Ni/Al-ZnO and Ni/Al-TiO2 formed grain-like or aggregated structures. EDS analysis confirmed the presence of Ni/Al, Ti, and Zn elements in the composites, with Ti and Zn accounting for 29.3% and 10.7% of the composite mass, respectively. The optimized reaction conditions included a reaction time of 40 minutes, catalyst dosage of 0.25 g, temperature of 50°C, and the use of n-hexane as the solvent. The catalysts demonstrated a heterogeneous nature and proved to be reusable, as the conversion of dibenzothiophene remained above 90% even after three catalytic reactions, with Ni/Al-TiO2 and Ni/Al-ZnO composites maintaining conversion rates of 99.36% and 99.32%, respectively.

Abstract

Catalyst material (M2+)Al-LDH was successfully prepared in this study. Characterisation analysis by XRD and FTIR. XRD analysis of Zn/Al-LDH, Mg/Al-LDH and Ni/Al-LDH showed agreement with pure LDH as seen from the JCPDS data and showed crystal forms similar to hydrotalcite, brucite and hydrotalcite respectively. FTIR analysis of the (M2+)Al-LDH material showed the presence of functional groups which explain the presence of O-H stretching, O-H bending, CO32- bonds and identified metal oxide (MO) groups from the synthesised LDH. (M2+)Al-LDH has the ability to act as a catalyst for excellent desulphurisation of 4,6-dimethyldibencothiophene with % conversion value above 90%. In addition, (M2+)Al-LDH is a heterogeneous and reusable catalyst.
