The objective of this program is to investigate the interactive thermal and catalytic chemistry of coal and petroleum processing using model compounds and actual petroleum-coal materials. This quarter the interactive catalytic chemistry of model coal and petroleum systems was investigated using combined catalysts of molybdenum naphthenate and vanadyl acetylacetonate. This combination was performed in order to evaluate the effect of the presence of an indigenous residuum metal, vanadium, on model reactions that occur in coprocessing. In addition, the effect of the vanadium sulfide on the catalysts of in situ sulfided molybdenum naphthenate was investigated. The following reactions were investigated: catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of dibenzofuran, effect of vanadium sulfide in combined catalyst systems on dibenzofuran hydrodeoxygenation, catalytic hydrodesulfurization of dibenzothiophene, effect of vanadium sulfide in combined catalyst systems on dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization, catalytic hydrogenation of fluorene, effect of vanadium sulfide in combined catalyst systems on fluorene hydrogenation, catalytic hydrodenitrogenation of carbazole, and effect of vanadium sulfide in combined catalyst systems on carbazole hydrodenitrogenation.
