Abstract
AbstractA highly efficient oxidative desulfurization composite catalyst NH2‐Uio‐66‐Mo has been prepared and applied in the catalytic oxidative desulfurization. It was elucidated that Mo6+ could increase the oxygen vacancies and active sites on the catalyst and increase the pore size of UiO‐66. Meanwhile, the removal rate of dibenzothiophene (DBT) reached 99.2 % after 60 min under optimal conditions and remained above 90 % after 5 cycles, showing the composite catalyst's remarkable catalytic performance and satisfactory reusability NH2‐UiO‐66‐Mo. In addition, kinetic studies revealed that the desulfurization process can present a pseudo‐first‐order kinetic process. The apparent activation energy was 10.6 kJ/mol. Finally, in combination with oxides, possible oxidation pathways were identified.
