Theoretical Modeling of Zeolite Nanoparticle Surface Acidity for Heavy Oil Upgrading
Abstract
We performed periodic density functional theory (DFT) and quantum-mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) investigations of the surface acidity of zeolite nanoparticles derived from natural minerals that can be used for bitumen upgrading; in particular, in the process combining bitumen precracking with impurities removal that we recently reported. Bitumen molecules are large and cannot enter zeolite pores. These mainly adsorb on the outer surface of zeolite nanoparticles, which can be optimized for efficient bitumen upgrading and impurities removal. Two chabazite slab models obtained by (003) and (003̄) cuts that have four and two surface OH groups per unit cell, respectively, are used for the periodic DFT modeling of nanoparticle surfaces. The first model is also treated by using the QM/MM method. Bitumen molecules are represented by probing bases such as ammonia, pyridine, and 2,6-dimethylpyridine that are commonly used for experimental acidity characterization. Analysis of the model acidity characteristics, such as deprotonation energies, aluminum substitution energies, OH stretching frequencies. and Fukui functions produces very good correlations. For the deprotonated chabazite, the electrophilic Fukui functions predict the most stable Brønsted site. Our results suggest that the most reactive chabazite sites are O1 and O3. The three bases investigated become fully protonated upon adsorption to the chabazite Brønsted sites. The molecular orbital spatial distributions obtained by using the periodic and QM/MM methods are very similar, which indicates good correlations between the two modeling methods. The results of our zeolite acidity calculations are in good agreement with experimental data and other computational studies available. Our findings can be useful for the further modeling and rational design of catalytic zeolite nanoparticles for heavy oil upgrading.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
