Abstract

The ultra-deep removal of 4,6-DMDB and decrease in loss of C/ H atoms is one of the bottlenecks in achieving ultra-low sulfur fuel oil, which is resolved with photocatalytic oxidation coupled with in-situ hydrodesulfurization. Herein, a flower cluster microsphere composite La-Bi2WO6/Ni@N-rGO as photocatalytic oxidation coupling with in-situ hydrodesulfurization catalysts was prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method. The characterization results of STEM, SEM, Raman, and XPS showed that La-Bi2WO6 combined with Ni@N-rGO formed flower-like microspheres with large specific surface areas. The experimental results showed that the catalysts had excellent photocatalytic oxidation coupling with in-situ hydrodesulfurization performance and good stability. A desulfurization ratio of 4,6-DMDBT reached 99.9% under mild conditions. A plausible mechanism for the photocatalytic desulfurization of 4,6-DMDBT was presumed by combining experiments with density functional theory. The designed La-Bi2WO6/Ni@N-rGO could be utilized for a large-scale process of diesel and other transpiration fuel oil.
