Analysis of carbon and sulfur in catalysts in oil refining

Background

 

Refineries are equipped with desulfurization units to remove sulfur from heavy oil. Desulfurization catalysts are widely used, consisting of highly dispersed molybdenum as the main active component and cobalt or nickel as an auxiliary component. Active ingredients are supported on a porous alumina-bases substrate. The changes in carbon and sulfur content in catalysts before and after the usage is very important to determine the efficiency and performance of the developed catalyst. Therefore, a reliable quantitative analysis of carbon and sulfur is important.
