ABSTRACT
The MoS2/ACx catalyst for hydrogenation of naphthalene to tetralin was prepared with untreated and modified activated carbon (ACx) as support and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, scanning electron microscopy, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scaning transmission electron microscopy. The results show that the modification of activated carbon by HNO3 changes the physical and chemical properties of activated carbon (AC), which mainly increases the micropore surface area of AC from 1091 to 1209 m2/g, increases the micropore volume of AC from 0.444 to 0.487 cm3/g, increases the oxygen-containing functional groups of AC from 5.46 to 7.52, and increases the acidity of catalysts from 365.7 to 559.2 mmol/g. The modified catalyst showed good catalytic performance, and the appropriate HNO3 concentration is very important for the modified of activated carbon. Among all the catalysts used in this study, the MoS2/AC3 catalyst could achieve the highest yield of tetralin. It can be attributed to the moderate acidity of the catalyst, reducing the cracking of hydrogenation products. Also, the proper hydrogenation activity of MoS2 and the appropriate increase of oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of modified activated carbon are beneficial to the dispersion of active components on the support, increasing the yield of tetralin. The catalytic performance of MoS2/AC3 is better than that of MoS2/Al2O3 catalyst, and the two catalysts show different hydrogenation paths of naphthalene.
