Molecular characteristics of sulfur compounds in oxidative desulfurization for heavy fuel oil based on APPI FT-ICR MS analysis
Oxidative desulfurization of model oil and heavy fuel oil (HFO) was investigated under mild conditions using H 2 O 2 as an oxidant and acetonitrile as an extractant. The influence factors in the oxidation and extraction processes were evaluated and optimized. The molecular characteristics of the raw feedstock and the desulfurized oils, and the corresponding extraction phases were systematically analyzed by APPI FT-ICR MS, 1 H NMR, etc. The results showed that the desulfurization rate of dibenzothiophene reached 97.7% after 10 min reaction, while the sulfur removal efficiency of HFO was 30.7% under optimized conditions. The structures of sulfur compounds were described in heteroatom type, carbon number distribution vs unsaturation degree. The detected main sulfur-containing compounds are S 1 , S 2 , S 3 , NS, OS, O 2 S, O 2 S 2 , and O 4 S 2 . Based on the APPI FT-ICR MS results, it can be found that almost all the S 1 species have been transformed into sulfone after the oxidation process. Furthermore, the sulfone of O 2 S 1 and O 4 S 2 species in extraction phases were in double bond equivalent (DBE) range from 9 to 25 and carbon number with ≤ 40. 1 H NMR results showed that the α to aromatic CH 3 combined naphthenic CH-CH 2 group accounted for 73.2% in the extraction phase.
