Hydrotreating catalysts were prepared from CoMgMoAl layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with different Co and Mo contents. Sulphides were characterised by techniques such as X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy, CO adsorption followed by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and nitrogen physisorption. The prepared catalysts were tested in the selective hydrotreating of a model feed (thiophene, cyclohexene and n-heptane) under 573 K and 20 bar of H-2, covering a wide range of space velocities (41-439 h(-1)). All the LDH-derived CoMgMoAl sulphides showed larger selectivity for hydrodesulphurisation when compared to industrial catalysts. The characterisation results allowed a relationship between the nature and concentration of sulphide sites and their catalytic functionalities to be established.
