Silva, et al. “ Modulation of the Acidity of HY, HBETA, and HZSM-5 Zeolites by Lanthanum Incorporation for Selective Gasoline Desulfurization in the FCC Riser.” ChemCatChem 17, no. 21 (2025): e00888. https://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.202500888 https://hdl.handle.net/10630/40033 10.1002/cctc.202500888 This study evaluates the incorporation of lanthanum into zeolites Y, Beta, and ZSM-5 to promote the desulfurization of a gasoline stream directly in the riser of a fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process. The catalysts were prepared using wet impregnation and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) (crystallinity and phase integrity), XRF (La content and Si/Al ratio), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), solid state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of 29Si and 27Al, N2 adsorption, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (TPD-NH3), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and pyridine chemisorbed FTIR (FTIR-Py). Catalytic tests were conducted in a tubular reactor, using a mixture of cyclohexane and thiophene (20000 ppm) at 773 K and 1.3 atm. Catalytic activity was assessed in a fixed-bed reactor using a cyclohexane/thiophene feed, and product selectivities were quantified by gas chromatography with flame ionization and sulfur chemiluminescence detectors. The addition of lanthanum altered the acidity of the catalysts, reducing the total density of acid sites while increasing the strength of Lewis acid sites. The protonated zeolites, particularly HY, facilitated sulfur removal, achieving a 91% selectivity for H2S through secondary hydrogen transfer reactions. In contrast, the lanthanum-modified zeolites enhanced thiophene alkylation and condensation reactions, as evidenced by the selectivity observed in La/BEA and La/ZSM-5, which reached 15%. The results indicated that incorporating lanthanum changes the desulfurization profile, making the catalysts more selective for forming higher molecular weight sulfur compounds, thereby shifting the products toward the FCC diesel range. eng Atribución 4.0 Internacional Catálisis heterogénea Petróleo - Refino Industria petroquímica Materiales porosos Zeolitas Modulation of the Acidity of HY, HBETA, and HZSM-5 Zeolites by Lanthanum Incorporation for Selective Gasoline Desulfurization in the FCCRiser journal article 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 URL https://riuma.uma.es/bitstreams/4d23492d-ba41-4d12-b01b-72d2ca509979/download File MD5 d280aa7f7b1149d4eaa3978ba3fb6a9c 6003968 application/pdf ChemCatChem - 2025 - Santos - Modulation of the Acidity of HY HBETA and HZSM‐5 Zeolites by Lanthanum Incorporation for.pdf
