Samples of nanostructured materials were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TG / DTG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), absorption spectroscopy in the infrared Fourier transform (FT-IR) and adsorption nitrogen (BET). The characterization showed that the synthesized materials resulted in a catalyst nanostructure, and ordered pore diameter and surface area according to existing literature. The oily sludge sample was characterized by determining the API gravity and sulfur content and SARA analysis (saturates, aromatics, resins and asphaltenes). The results showed a material equivalent to the average oil with API gravity of 26.1, a low sulfur content and considerable amount of resins and asphaltenes, presented above in the literature. The thermal and catalytic degradation of the oily sludge oil was performed from room temperature to 870 ? C in the ratios of heating of 5, 10 and 20 ? C min-1. The curves generated by TG / DTG showed a more accelerated degradation of oily sludge when it introduced the nanostructured materials. These results were confirmed by activation energy calculated by the method of Flynn-Wall, in the presence of catalysts reduced energy, in particular in the range of cracking, showing the process efficiency, mainly for extraction of lightweight materials of composition of oily sludge, such as diesel and gasoline / Com o objetivo de reduzir e reutilizar o res?duo de borra oleosa de petr?leo, gerado em grandes volumes pela ind?stria petrol?fera, materiais nanoestruturados dos tipos Al-MCM-41 e Al-SBA-15, com raz?es de Si/Al = 50, foram sintetizados, calcinados e utilizados como s?lidos catal?ticos na degrada??o termocatal?tica da borra oleosa de petr?leo, proveniente do campo petrol?fero Canto do Amaro, no estado do Rio Grande do Norte. As amostras dos materiais nanoestruturados foram caracterizadas por an?lise termogravim?trica (TG/DTG), difra??o de raios X (DRX), microscopia eletr?nica de varredura (MEV), espectroscopia de absor??o na regi?o do infravermelho com transformada de Fourier (FT-IR) e adsor??o de nitrog?nio (BET). A caracteriza??o mostrou que os materiais sintetizados resultaram em um catalisador nanoestruturado, ordenado e com di?metro de poros e ?rea superficial de acordo com a literatura existente. A amostra de borra oleosa foi caracterizada atrav?s da determina??o do grau API e do teor de enxofre e da an?lise do SARA (saturados, arom?ticos, resinas e asfaltenos). Os resultados mostraram um material equivalente ao petr?leo m?dio, com grau API de 26,1, baixo teor de enxofre e com quantidade consider?vel de resinas e asfaltenos, acima da apresentada na literatura. A degrada??o t?rmica e catal?tica da borra oleosa de petr?leo foi realizada da temperatura ambiente at? 870?C, nas raz?es de aquecimento de 5, 10 e 20oC min-1. As curvas geradas pela TG/DTG apresentaram uma degrada??o mais acelerada da borra oleosa quando se introduziram os materiais nanoestruturados. Esses resultados foram ratificados pela energia de ativa??o, calculada atrav?s do m?todo de Flynn-Wall, em que a presen?a dos catalisadores reduziu a energia, em especial na faixa de craqueamento, mostrando a efici?ncia do processo, principalmente para a extra??o de materiais leves da composi??o da borra oleosa, como diesel e gasolina

La préparation de matériaux catalytiques, à base de métaux de transition (Ni, Co, Cu) supportés sur des supports à porosité organisée, performants pour la réaction d’hydrogénation chimiosélective du cinnamaldéhyde, a été étudiée. L’étude peut être divisée en deux parties distinctes, selon la nature du support, silicique ou aluminique. La première partie traite de la dispersion de métaux de transition sur des supports de type SBA-15.Dans le premier chapitre est présentée la préparation des catalyseurs par la méthode IWI-MD (Incipient Wetness Impregnation – Mild Drying). Plusieurs études, afin de valider l’efficacité de cette méthode, ont été menées : (i) influence de la texture du support, (ii) influence de la température et du temps de séchage; (iii) influence de la teneur en métal. Le deuxième chapitre rapporte l’étude de la préparation par la voie de déposition par précipitation. L’étude de la méthode d’infiltration des sels fondus, dite de Melt Infiltration (MI), optimisée afin d’assurer une infiltration complète du précurseur dans la porosité du support préalablement à la formation de la phase oxyde, est présentée dans le Chapitre 3. Finalement, le dernier chapitre du document traite de la dispersion sur des supports aluminiques mésoporeux ordonnés (AMO). Les matériaux catalytiques ont été préparés sur des supports AMO, obtenus par la voie d’auto-assemblage induit par évaporation (AAIE). Les paramètres étudiés sont : (i) l’effet de la texture du support, à partir d’alumines de différentes tailles de pores et (ii) l’effet du mode de déposition des métaux (par IWI-MD, MI ou TS). / The development of efficient transition metal based catalysts for the chemoselective hydrogenation reaction of cinnamaldehyde is studied. The active phases, studied in this work, are among the transition metals (Ni, Co and Cu), supported on porous ordered materials. This study can be divided in two different sections, according to the support nature. The first part concerns the dispersion of transition metals on SBA-15 type silica support. In the first chapter is presented the transition metal dispersion (Ni, Co and Cu) using IWI-MD (Incipient Wetness Impregnation –Mild Drying) method. Studies performed, to optimize active phase dispersion, are: (i) influence of support texture, (ii) influence of drying temperature, (iii) influence of drying time, (iv) influence of metal loading. In the second chapter, Ni, Co and Cu catalytic materials are prepared using deposition precipitation method.

The second section of the Ph.D. is related to the dispersion of transition metal over ordered mesoporous alumina (AMO) supports. Catalytic materials, based on Ni and Cu over AMO (obtained by EISA process - Evaporation Induced by Self-Assembly), are produced. Parameters studied are: effect of support texture, effect of preparation route (IWI-MD, MI and TS).

L’électrofilage est actuellement la méthode la plus utilisée pour la production de nanofibres grâce à sa simplicité, sa reproductibilité et la possibilité d’être industrialisée. Grâce à leurs propriétés particulières telles qu’un grand rapport surface-volume, une porosité inter-fibre élevée et une grande capacité d’adsorption, les nanofibres électrofilées sont de bons candidats pour de nombreuses applications telles que la filtration, les masques respiratoires, les matériaux composites, etc. Cependant, certaines applications particulières, telles que les capteurs, les systèmes d'administration contrôlée de médicaments ou les super condensateurs, exigent que les nanofibres doivent présenter des propriétés complémentaires telles que la conductivité électrique, la porosité de surface de nanofibres, l’hydrophobicité, ou d’autres propriétés particulières. Certains nanomatériaux comme les nanotubes de carbone, la silice mésoporeuse ordonnée, les argiles, ont des propriétés particulières comme la conductivité électriques élevée des nanotubes de carbone, la porosité des matériaux de silice mésoporeuse ordonnée ou de l’argile. Ces propriétés des nanomatériaux peuvent être les fonctions complémentaires cherchées. Dans notre étude, des non-tissés composés de nanofibres de polyacrylonitrile chargées par nanotubes de carbone à multi-parois (MWNT), de la montmorillonite sodique (MMT-Na) ou de la silice mésoporeuse ordonnée (de type SBA-15), sont produits par électrofilage. Les résultats montrent que l’insertion de MWNT rend le non-tissé conducteur en augmentant la conductivité électrique volumique par six ordres de grandeur (de ~ 2×10-12 à ~ 3×10-6 S/m) avec un très faible seuil de percolation de 0.5 % massique. Lorsque le non-tissé est soumis à une compression, la conductivité électrique volumique augmente en augmentant la pression (jusqu’à ~ 2 kPa). Ces non-tissés conducteurs sont très intéressants pour le développement des capteurs à faible amplitude. Les résultats montrent aussi que l’accessibilité des pores des particules inorganiques (c’est-à-dire, les mésopores de SBA-15 et l’espace interfoliaire de MMT-Na) insérées dans la structure nano fibreuse est encore possible. Il a été trouvé que plus de 50% des mésopores de SBA-15 insérées sont encore accessibles quelles que soit les conditions de l’électrofilage et la fraction massique de SBA-15. En outre, l’insertion de ces particules inorganiques apporte plus de stabilité thermique aux nanofibres composites. / Electrospinning is the most common method for the production of nanofibres due to its simplicity, repeatability, and the ability to be scaled up. Owing to their advanced properties like the high surface-to-volume ratio, high interfibrous porosity, high adsorption capacity, etc. electrospun nanofibers are good candidates for many applications such as filtration, respiratory masks, composite materials and others. However, some specific applications including sensors, controlled drug delivery systems, supercapacitors, etc. still require complimentary functions that do not exist in pristine nanofibers in their basic structure like the electrical conductivity, surface porosity of the nanofibers, hydrophobicity, and others.Nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes, ordered mesoporous silica, layered silicate, etc. are characterized by particular properties like the high electrical conductivity of carbon nanotubes, the porosity of ordered mesoporous silica or layered silicate. These particular properties of nanomaterials can fulfill of the targeted functions.In our study, nonwovens made from nanofibers of polyacrylonitrile incorporated with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT), layered silicate type Na-montmorillonite (Na-MMT) or ordered mesoporous silica type SBA-15 are successfully produced by electrospinning.Results reveal that the incorporation of MWNT altered the electrical state of the nonwoven from insolent to conductor where the volume electrical conductivity increased by six order of magnitude (from ~ 2×10-12 to ~ 3×10-6 S/m) with a very low percolation threshold of about 0.5 wt%. The application of mechanical pressure to the conductive nonwoven causes an increase in the volume electrical conductivity with the increase of the applied pressure (up to ~ 2 kPa). Such conductive nonwoven is very interesting for the development of sensor with low amplitude.Results also show that accessibility of the pores of the inorganic particles (i.e. mesopores of SBA-15 and interlayer space of Na-MMT) incorporated into the nanofibers is still possible. It is found that at least 50% of SBA-15 mesopores are still accessible whatever is the electrospinning conditions and SBA-15 mass fraction. In addition, the incorporation of the studied inorganic particles yields higher thermal stability for the composite nanofibers.

These solids were characterized by X-ray fluorescence (XRF), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTG), infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nitrogen porosimetry and ethanol dehydration, aiming to active sites identify. Taken together, the analyses indicated that the synthesis method has employed to obtain materials highly ordered mesostructures with large average pore sizes and high surface area, besides suggested that the lanthanum was incorporated in the SBA-15 both into the framework as well as within the mesopores. Catalytic dehydration of ethanol over the LaSBA-15(pH) products has shown that they have weak Lewis acid and basic functionalities, indicative of the presence of lanthanum oxide in these samples, especially on the La75SBA-15(pH) sample, which has presented the highest selectivity to ethylene. The buriti oil thermal and thermal catalytic cracking, realized from the room temperature to 450 ?C in a simple distillation system, has allowed obtaining two liquid fractions, each consisting of two phases, one aqueous and another organic, organic liquid (OL). The OL obtained from first fractions has shown high acid index, even in the thermal catalytic process. One the other hand, OL coming from second ones, called green diesel (GD), have presented low acid index, particularly that one obtained from the thermal catalytic process realized over LaSBA-15(pH) samples. The acid sites presence in these samples, associated to their large average pore sizes and high surface areas, have allowed them, especially the La75SBA-15(pH), to present deoxygenating activity in the buriti oil thermal catalytic cracking, providing an oxygenates content reduction, particularly carboxylic acids, in the GD. Furthermore, the GD comes from the second liquid fraction obtained in the buriti oil thermal catalytic cracking over this latest solid sample has shown hydrocarbons composition and physic-chemical properties similar to that mineral diesel, beyond sulfur content low / Com o objetivo de obter um biocombust?vel semelhante ao diesel mineral, materiais nano-estruturados do tipo SBA-15 com lant?nio incorporado, LaSBA-15(pH), com raz?es molares Si/La = 75, 50 e 25, foram sintetizados em dois est?gios, com ajuste do pH do gel de s?ntese a 6, e utilizados como s?lidos catal?ticos no craqueamento termocatal?tico de ?leo de buriti. As amostras s?lidas foram caracterizadas por fluoresc?ncia de raios-X (FRX), difra??o de raios-X (DRX), an?lise termogravim?trica (TG/DTG), espectroscopia na regi?o do infravermelho (FTIR), adsor??o-dessor??o de nitrog?nio e desidrata??o de etanol, para identifica??o dos s?tios ativos. Os resultados destas caracteriza??es indicaram que o m?todo de s?ntese empregado proporcionou a obten??o de materiais mesoestruturados altamente ordenados com grande di?metro m?dio de poros e elevada ?rea superficial, al?m de sugerir que o lant?nio foi incorporado na SBA-15 tanto no interior das paredes, quanto dentro dos mesoporos. A desidrata??o catal?tica de etanol sobre os s?lidos LaSBA-15(pH) mostrou que eles apresentam s?tios ?cidos e b?sicos de Lewis, indicativo da presen?a de ?xido de lant?nio nestes, especialmente na amostra La75SBA-15(pH), que apresentou a maior seletividade para etileno. Os craqueamentos t?rmico e termocatal?ticos do ?leo de buriti, realizados da temperatura ambiente a 450 ?C em um sistema de destila??o simples, possibilitaram a obten??o de duas fra??es l?quidas, compostas por duas fases, uma aquosa e outra org?nica, l?quido org?nico (LO). O LO obtido a partir das primeiras fra??es apresentou ?ndice de acidez muito elevado, at? mesmo nos processos termocatal?ticos. Por outro lado, o LO oriundo das segundas fra??es, denominado de diesel verde (DV), apresentou baixo ?ndice de acidez, particularmente aquele obtido nos processos realizados sobre as amostras LaSBA-15(pH). Os s?tios ?cidos presentes nestas amostras, associados aos seus grandes di?metros m?dios de poros e ?s elevadas ?reas superficiais, permitiram que elas, especialmente a La75SBA-15(pH), apresentassem atividade desoxigenante no craqueamento temocatal?tico do ?leo de buriti, ocasionando uma diminui??o da concentra??o de oxigenados no DV, particularmente ?cidos carbox?licos. Al?m disso, o DV obtido sobre esta ?ltima amostra s?lida apresentou composi??o de hidrocarbonetos e propriedades f?sico-qu?micas semelhantes ?s do diesel mineral, al?m de um baixo teor de enxofre

To verify that the materials used as catalysts were successfully synthesized, they were characterized using techniques of X-ray diffraction (XRD), absorption spectroscopy in the infrared Fourier transform (FT-IR) and adsorption nitrogen (BET). Aiming to check the catalytic activity thereof, a sample of atmospheric residue oil (ATR) from the pole Guamar?-RN was performed the process by means of thermogravimetry and thermal degradation of catalytic residue. Upon the curves, it was observed a reduction in the onset temperature of the decomposition process of catalytic ATR. For the kinetic model proposed by Flynn-Wall yielded some parameters to determine the apparent activation energy of decomposition, being shown the efficiency of mesoporous materials, since there was a decrease in the activation energy for the reactions using catalysts. The ATR was also subjected to pyrolysis process using a pyrolyzer with gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer. Through the chromatograms obtained, there was an increase in the yield of the compounds in the range of gasoline and diesel from the catalytic pyrolysis, with emphasis on Al-SBA-15 (Si / Al = 25), which showed a percentage higher than the other catalysts. These results are due to the fact that the synthesized materials exhibit specific properties for application in the process of pyrolysis of complex molecules and high molecular weight as constituents of the ATR / No presente trabalho foram sintetizados e caracterizados os materiais mesoporosos SBA-15 e Al-SBA-15, Si/Al= 25, 50 e 75, descobertos por pesquisadores da Universidade da Calif?rnia- Santa B?rbara- EUA, tendo di?metro de poros variando entre 2 a 30 nm e espessura das paredes de 3,1 - 6,4 nm, tornando estes materiais promissores na ?rea da cat?lise, especificamente para o refino do petr?leo (craqueamento catal?tico), j? que seus mesoporos facilitam o acesso das mol?culas constituintes do petr?leo aos s?tios ativos, aumentando assim a produ??o de produtos na faixa dos hidrocarbonetos leves e m?dios. Para verificar se os materiais utilizados como catalisadores haviam sido sintetizados com sucesso, os mesmos foram caracterizados atrav?s das t?cnicas de difra??o de raios-X (DRX), espectroscopia de absor??o na regi?o do infravermelho com transformada de Fourier (FTIR) e adsor??o de nitrog?nio (BET). Com o intuito de verificar a atividade catal?tica dos mesmos, utilizou-se uma amostra de Res?duo Atmosf?rico de petr?leo (RAT), proveniente do P?lo de Guamar?- RN, realizando-se atrav?s da termogravimetria o processo de degrada??o t?rmica e catal?tica do res?duo. Mediante as curvas obtidas, observou-se uma redu??o na temperatura de in?cio do processo de decomposi??o catal?tica do RAT. Pelo modelo cin?tico proposto por Flynn- Wall obtiveram-se alguns par?metros para determina??o da energia de ativa??o aparente das decomposi??es, ficando evidenciada a efici?ncia dos materiais mesoporosos, j? que houve uma diminui??o da energia de ativa??o para as rea??es utilizando os catalisadores. O RAT tamb?m foi submetido ao processo de pir?lise utilizando-se um pirolisador com cromatografia gasosa, acoplado a um espectr?metro de massa. Mediante os cromatogramas obtidos, observou-se um aumento no rendimento dos compostos na faixa da gasolina e diesel oriundos da pir?lise catal?tica, com ?nfase para o Al-SBA-15 (Si/Al= 25), que apresentou um percentual superior aos demais catalisadores. Esses resultados se devem ao fato dos materiais sintetizados exibirem propriedades espec?ficas, para aplica??o no processo de pir?lise de mol?culas complexas e com alto peso molecular, como os constituintes do RAT

Cette étude porte sur la synthèse et la caractérisation d'oxydes de titane à grandes surfaces spécifiques et avec des tailles de pores dans le domaine des mésopores. Après une analyse critique de la bibliographie, nous avons choisi différentes voies de synthèse en vue de structurer l'oxyde de titane. L'obtention d'une mésoporosité a été faite par : utilisation d'agents structurants de type tensioactif cationique et non-ionique, par voie sol-gel en présence de porogène et par recouvrement de MTS siliciques mésoporeux par une monocouche de TiO2. Des oxydes de titane de 200 à 400 m²/g de surface spécifique et de taille de pores de 60 à 140 Å ont été obtenus. Ils ont ensuite été fonctionnalisés par des acides phosphoniques comportant soit des fonctions basiques (guanidine) soit des fonctions hydrophobes (chaîne alkyle C8). Les matériaux hybrides ainsi obtenus pourront être utilisés pour faire de la catalyse basique hétérogène.

Ce travail de thèse a pour but la synthèse de solides constitués de nanoparticules d'oxyde de fer de taille contrôlée, dispersées et en interaction forte avec des supports mésoporeux. L'originalité du travail consiste en un choix judicieux de précurseurs de fer : des complexes de type chélate. Via une dégradation thermique contrôlée, ils libèrent la phase active sous forme d'oxyde et la déposent sur les parois internes à forte courbure de la silice SBA-15 avec un degré de dispersion optimal. Ce phénomène de confinement, désigné "effet de panier", conduit après calcination à des particules de Fe2O3, dont la taille est régie par la géométrie des chélates. Dans le cas des composites Fe/Al2O3, le fer est très dispersé (plages d'oxyde mixte (Fe,Al)2O3) et fortement stabilisé grâce à une bonne interaction acide-base avec le support. Ces composites sont d'excellents catalyseurs pour l'oxydation du phénol par H2O2 en milieu aqueux, puisque l'élution de l'espèce active est très limitée (<2%).

El presente trabajo describe la síntesis y caracterización de una serie de membranas híbridas organo-inorgánicas de intercambio iónico para su uso en pilas de combustible. Las membranas se prepararon por casting a partir de dispersiones de una serie de cargas inorgánicas fenil sulfonadas en disoluciones de Nafion, por una parte y poli estiren etilen/butilen estireno (SEBS) sulfonado. Como cargas se emplearon sílica gel, SBA-15 y sepiolita, todas ellas funcionalizadas con grupos de ácido fenilsulfónico. La sepiolita y la sílica gel se funcionalizaron anclando el grupo fenilo, al sólido. Se preparó la SBA-15 mediante una reacción sol-gel. Se funcionalizó mediante dos técnicas. El primer método consistió en funcionalizar en la síntesis y el segundo en funcionalizar la SBA-15 ya preparada al igual que las otras cargas. Se llevó a cabo una sulfonación heterogénea empleando una atmósfera de SO3 como agente sulfonante. El SEBS se sulfonó en disolución utilizando sulfato de acetilo como agente sulfonante. Posteriormente se preparó una disolución con el polímero sulfonado en THF/Etanol. Para las membranas Nafion se empleó una disolución comercial al 5% en alcoholes de bajo peso molecular. Se han caracterizado en primer lugar las cargas inorgánicas mediante medida de la capacidad de intercambio iónico y análisis elemental. De esta manera se seleccionaron las cargas a incorporar en las membranas. Con las cargas definitivas se ha hecho un ensayo de adsorción isoterma de N2 con el fin de obtener la superficie específica, un análisis termogravimétrico y se utilizó el SEM para determinar el tamaño de partícula. Las membranas se han caracterizado mediante absorción de agua, capacidad de intercambio iónico, SEM, TGA, DSC, DMA, FTIR y medida de la conductividad protónica por espectroscopía de impedancia. Del análisis microestructural se determinó que la sepiolita es la carga que proporciona mejores propiedades mecánicas a las membranas debido a su menor tamaño de partícula que p / Fernández Carretero, FJ.
