Using dual mesoporous titania as a support, due to the presence of intrinsic Brönsted acid sites, the main approach to 4,6-dimethylbenzothiophene (46DMDBT) hydrodesulfurization (HDS) becomes the direct desulfurization (DDS) route through isomerization and dismutation reactions, instead of the hydrogenation (HYD) pathway usually observed with a conventional promoted (by Ni or Co) MoS/AlO catalyst.
Amorphous mesostructured zirconia with high thermal stability and hydrothermal stability in boiling water has been obtained without addition of stabilizer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
