Este trabalho reportou a sintetize pelo m?todo hidrot?rmico, e caracteriza??o de catalisadores heterog?neos mesoporosos, do tipo SBA-15, com adi??o dos metais c?rio e alum?nio, avaliando sua atividade e seletividade na degrada??o t?rmica de ?leo pesado. 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 fluoresc?ncia de raios X (FRX), espectroscopia de absor??o na regi?o do infravermelho com transformada de Fourier (FTIR) 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. Com o intuito de verificar a atividade catal?tica dos mesmos, utilizou-se uma amostra de petr?leo pesado (?API=14), fornecido pela Petrobras, realizando-se atrav?s da termogravimetria o processo de degrada??o t?rmica e catal?tica do ?leo. Mediante as curvas termogravim?tricas obtidas, observou-se uma redu??o na temperatura de in?cio do processo de decomposi??o catal?tica do petr?leo. Atrav?s do modelo cin?tico n?o isot?rmico de Ozawa Flynn Wall (OFW) obtiveram-se alguns par?metros para determina??o da energia de ativa??o aparente das decomposi??es. Os resultados obtidos das difra??es de raio X mostraram atrav?s de picos caracter?sticos que a estrutura hexagonal foi formada, verificando que a melhor raz?o foi Si/Ce = 5 devido a sua intensidade em alto ?ngulo. Os espectros de infravermelho apresentaram absor??es caracter?sticas de materiais da fam?lia SBA-15. Da adsor??o de nitrog?nio, obtendo-se par?metros compat?veis aos encontrados na literatura, que lhes conferem serem promissores na ?rea da degrada??o de petr?leo, devido aos seus mesoporos facilitarem o acesso de grandes mol?culas. O di?metro m?dio dos poros variou significativamente com a incorpora??o do alum?nio e do c?rio. A espessuras de parede (Wt) ficou na faixa de 2,96 a 4,07 nm, observando assim um aumento deste par?metro que deve-se a incorpora??o dos metais na parede, indicando que a incorpora??o do c?rio, n?o bloqueou os mesoporos. O acr?scimo de alum?nio reduziu a area superficial (SBET) de 893 para 763 m2g-1, no entanto com o acr?scimo do c?rio com o alum?nio esta ?rea aumentou para 826 m2g-1. Para o petr?leo a temperatura inicial e final de perda de massa; apresentando apenas dois eventos devido ao teor de enxofre mercapt?dico, o qual influencia no surgimento do terceiro evento, j? que esse teor ? medido pela quantidade de enxofre nos an?is arom?ticos (HC pesados). A mistura do Petr?leo + 12% de Ce5Al50SBA-15 evidenciando a atividade catal?tica deste material. / Nanomaterials (catalysts) are microporous and mesoporous considered promising for obtaining light oil products from heavy oil fractions and adsorbents for environmental protection. This paper reported the synthesizes by hydrothermal method, and characterization of mesoporous heterogeneous catalysts, the SBA-15 type with addition of metals cerium and aluminum, evaluating their activity and selectivity in the thermal degradation of heavy oil. Samples of nanostructured materials were characterized by thermal gravimetric analysis (TG / DTG), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), ray fluorescence spectroscopy X (XRF) spectroscopy, absorption in the infrared region Fourier transform (FTIR) and nitrogen adsorption (BET). The characterization showed that the synthesized materials resulted in a nanostructured catalyst and ordered pore diameter and surface area according to the literature. In order to check the catalytic activity of the same, we used a heavy oil sample (?API = 14), supplied by Petrobras, is performing through thermogravimetry the process of thermal and catalytic degradation of the oil. Through the thermogravimetric curves, it was observed a reduction in the opening of oil decomposition catalytic process temperature. Through non isothermal kinetic model Ozawa Flynn Wall (OFW) gave some parameters to determine the apparent activation energy of decomposition. Obtaining as results of X-ray diffraction showed through characteristic peaks that the hexagonal structure was formed, noting that the best reason was Si / Ce = 5 because of its intensity at a high angle. The infrared spectra showed absorptions family material characteristics SBA-15. The nitrogen adsorption, obtaining parameters compatible with those found in the literature which confer them to be promising in the field of oil degradation due to their mesopores facilitate access of large molecules. The average pore diameter varied significantly with the incorporation of aluminum and cerium. The wall thickness (Wt) was in the range from 2.96 to 4.07 nm, thus observing an increase in this parameter which is due to incorporation of the metals into the wall, indicating that the incorporation of cerium, did not block the mesopores. The addition of aluminum reduced the surface area (SBET) of 893 to 763 m2 g-1, however with the addition of cerium with aluminum this area increased to 826 m2 g-1. For the oil temperature and the initial end of weight loss; presenting only two events due to mercapt?dico sulfur, which influences the appearance of the third event, since that content is measured by the amount of sulfur in aromatic rings (heavy HC). The mixture of oil + 12% of Ce5Al50SBA-15 showing the catalytic activity of this material.
