Abstract

A silica–alumina supported Pd–Pt bimetallic catalyst was found to be highly active in dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization with preferential selectivity to the hydrogenation (HYD) route of desulfurization at the expense of the direct removal of sulfur. In addition, it was demonstrated that for Pd–Pt catalysts selectivity to HYD can be drastically changed by a “soft” change in the nature of the carrier.
