The invention discloses a ZrO2 / γ-Al2O3 composite carrier and a preparation method thereof, a selective
hydrodesulfurization catalyst and an application thereof. The composite carrier preparation method comprises: step 1, mixing
zirconium oxychloride and water to obtain a
zirconium-containing solution; step 2, adjusting the pH value of the
zirconium-containing solution to alkaline, stirring, and aging; step 3, separating the aged material obtained in step 2 to obtain a
solid, washing and removing Cl in the obtained
solid; ‑ , obtaining a zirconium-containing hydrogel; step 4, mixing
sucrose, pseudo-
boehmite, the zirconium-containing hydrogel and water, heating,
acid hydrolysis, to obtain a zirconium-aluminum
sol; step 5, adjusting the pH value of the zirconium-aluminum
sol to alkaline, aging, then washing with water to neutrality,
solid-liquid separation, vacuum
freeze drying, to obtain a zirconium-aluminum
composite material; step 6, mixing the zirconium-aluminum
composite material with an additive, molding, to obtain a ZrO2 / γ-Al2O3 composite carrier. The catalyst of the present invention has high DDS selectivity, low diesel
hydrogenation reaction severity, and low
hydrogen consumption.
