Abstract:The formation of Ni x S y /Co x S y phases on the HDS catalyst surface during catalyst preparation poses the following challenges in the HDS reaction: (1) inactive in the reaction, (2) hinder the role of promoters, (3) block the actives sites (NiMoS/CoMoS) at the perimeter, and (4) increase the inert mass on the catalyst surface. Since the formation of Ni x S y /Co x S y phases is thermodynamically favorable, it is difficult to control this during the catalyst synthesis. In this regard, this work investigates … Show more
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.
