A series of mesoporous ZSM-5-x (x = Si/Al molar ratio) supports, possessing various Si/Al ratios, were prepared without using the secondary templates, and the influences of acidity of ZSM-5-x on catalytic performance of Pt/HZSM-5-x samples prepared by the conventional wetness impregnation in naphthalene hydrogenation were investigated. The results show that decreasing Si/Al ratios of mesoporous ZSM-5 supports promotes the dispersion of the supported Pt species, and the catalytic efficiencies of Pt/HZSM-5-x samples for naphthalene hydrogenation depend on the integrated effects of the Pt dispersion, the acidity, and the mesoporous structure of ZSM-5 supports. This work provides the detailed influences of acidity of mesoporous ZSM-5 on catalytic performance of supported Pt catalysts in naphthalene hydrogenation.

Different Al2O3 carriers were synthesized by co-precipitation and sol-gel method. From them, 4%NiO-20%MoO3/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, NH3 temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and H2-temperature programmed reduction (TPR) and subsequently used for selective hydrogenation of naphthalene to high-value tetralin. The results showed that Ni-Mo/so-ge Al2O3 (900) exhibited better catalytic performance than Ni Mo/commercial Al2O3, achieving 99.56% naphthalene conversion and 99.43% tetralin selectivity.

Deep hydrogenation of aromatics is an important reaction in modern oil refinery. The key of an aromatic hydrogenation unit is high active, sulfur resistant hydrogenation catalyst. In this paper, the catalytic performance of a newly developed hydrogenation catalyst, platinum supported on mesoporous ZSM-5 (Pt/MZ-5), was tested in naphthalene (model compound of light cycle oil) hydrogenation. Pt/ZSM-5 and Pt/Alumina were used as reference. In some experiments, dibenzothiophene (DBT) was added to test the sulfur tolerance of catalysts. In the absence of DBT, Pt/MZ-5 and Pt/Alumina showed much higher hydrogenation activities and decalin selectivity than Pt/ZSM-5. The selectivity to decalin exceeds 97% over Pt/MZ-5 at temperature range between 523 and 573 K. Furthermore, Pt/MZ-5 shows better sulfur resistance than that of Pt/Alumina. In the presence of 3000 ppm dibenzothiophene, the selectivity of decalin over Pt/MZ-5 was only slightly dropped to 89.4% at 573 K, which is much higher than that of Pt/Al 2 O 3 (51.4%). The excellent catalytic performance and sulfur tolerance of Pt/MZ-5 were attributed to the combination of high acidity and mesoporous structure in MZ-5.
