Abstract

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and nickel promoted MoS2 are increasingly used as catalyst in hydrotreating process, which involve adsorption, dissociation and formation of molecular hydrogen. This study aims at investigating the adsorption, dissociation and formation of hydrogen molecular over MoS2 and Ni promoted MoS2 (NiMoS) surface by using first-principles density functional theory (DFT). By using CI-NEB method, the activation energies of H2 dissociation and H2 formation are calculated. The most stable adsorption site is found in MoS2 surface. From the evaluation of H–H formation energy barrier on catalyst surface, NiMoS shows better reactivity than MoS2.
