NiMo-sulfide supported on activated carbon to produce renewable diesel by Nancy Y Acelas, Diana Lopez, Andrés Moreno

“…It is expected that the absence of a strong metal-support interaction can result in the formation of a very active and stable Ni-Mo-S phase. In this study, catalysts with different amounts of nickel and molybdenum supported on a commercial activated carbon were prepared by a co-impregnation method and characterized by BET, XRF, and SEM techniques. …”
