Mechanisms for Catalytically Abating Organosulfur Compounds with H2O2 Formed In Situ

Abstract

We will synthesize a variety of supported metal-oxide catalysts (e.g., V, Nb, Ta) to study the formation and reaction of M+-OOH* moieties with organic reactants to determine the rates, selectivity, and mechanism for small molecule oxidation. We will synthesize a series of similarly structured metal-oxide catalysts by depositing low loadings (0.2 - 3 % wt.) of V, Nb, Ta, Ti, etc. precursors onto silica by SEA and into zeolite frameworks by treating zeolite with moderate aluminum content (e.g., Si/Al ~ 25) with strong HNO3 solutions followed by metal-ion exchange.
