Abstract

Cobalt oxide loaded on high surface area smectites are prepared and tested in a pulse flow reactor for thiophene hydrodesulfurization (HDS). Smectites used were montmorillonite, saponite, porous saponite, hectorite and stevensite. Co-porous saponite showed the highest activity among Co-smectites, Co/Al2O3, and CoMo/Al2O3 so far studied. It suggests that the property of smectite has an influence on the catalyst activity.
