Abstract
The activity of a 1% Pt/Al 2O 3 catalyst for the complete oxidation of di(n-propyl) sulfide is investigated at 230 °C and atmospheric pressure using a fixed-bed reactor. The results indicate that the catalytic activity is significantly influenced by the pretreatment conditions. XPS analyses of freshly pretreated catalyst show that low calcination temperatures produce an oxidized platinum phase, while high calcination temperatures produce a reduced platinum phase. The oxidized platinum phase was found to be superior to the reduced platinum phase for the oxidation of di(n-propyl) sulfide.
