Here, in the method for producing a catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid of the present invention, the raw material compound of cobalt used is cobalt nitrate hexahydrate. That is, in the catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid of the present invention, the raw material compound of cobalt contained as an essential catalytic active component is cobalt nitrate hexahydrate. The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate has a mass loss rate L from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ in thermogravimetric analysis 1 (hereinafter, also referred to as "mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 ") 11 to 16 mass%. The mass reduction rate L is 1 Represented by the above formula (a). By using such cobalt nitrate hexahydrate as a raw material of a catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid, the catalytic activity and yield of the obtained catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid can be remarkably improved.
Here, the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The numerical value is a value showing a change in mass accompanying dehydration and thermal decomposition of hygroscopic water and crystal water caused by a temperature change (heating) from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ in thermogravimetric analysis. Among them, the mass change due to dehydration of crystal water in the temperature change from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, and the mass change accompanying thermal decomposition are considered as values inherent to cobalt nitrate hexahydrate. Thus, in the thermogravimetric analysis, the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate in each of the measurement samples of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 When the value of (2) is varied, it is considered that the variation (difference) of the value is mainly derived from the moisture-absorbed water of cobalt nitrate hexahydrateThe amount of the components is divided. The mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was determined by theoretical investigation based on the change in mass due to dehydration of crystal water 1 About 6 to 37%, and considering the change in mass due to dehydration of the hygroscopic water based on the change in mass, the mass loss rate L of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 A wider range of values may be taken. It should be noted that the mechanism of the weight loss from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is merely an assumption, and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. The catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid of the present invention is obtained by using the mass reduction rate L 1 Cobalt nitrate hexahydrate in a specific range is produced as a raw material, and the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate exerts an effect.
It is known that nitrates such as cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, which are generally used as a raw material compound of a catalyst, tend to absorb moisture, and the moisture content of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate varies in a wide range depending on the storage state thereof, and as a result, the mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 But also within wide limits. However, up to now, the moisture content and the storage method have not been studied in detail for cobalt nitrate hexahydrate as a raw material used in a catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid.
The present inventors have found that if the moisture content of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is high, the mass loss rate L thereof is high 1 Higher, in use, the mass reduction rate L 1 In the case of producing acrolein and a catalyst for acrylic acid production from high cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, if propylene is subjected to catalytic gas phase oxidation using the catalyst for acrolein and acrylic acid production, the yield of acrolein and acrylic acid becomes low. Further, it was found that when the moisture content of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was decreased, the mass reduction rate L thereof was increased 1 Becomes low and the mass reduction rate L is used 1 When acrolein and acrylic acid production catalyst are produced with low cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, similarly, if propylene is subjected to catalytic gas phase oxidation using the catalyst for acrolein and acrylic acid production, the yield of acrolein and acrylic acid is lowered.
As a result of various investigations, it was found that cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was used as a raw materialMass loss rate L of the compound 1 11 to 16% by mass, the catalytic activity and yield of the resulting catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid can be significantly improved. That is, the present inventors have found that the moisture content of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate varies depending on the storage condition of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, and the mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 When the catalyst is changed in a wide range, the performance such as catalytic activity and yield of the obtained catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid varies in a wide range, and therefore, it is a main cause that a high-performance catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid cannot be stably produced. According to the invention, by using a specific mass reduction rate L 1 The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate can industrially stably produce a catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid, which has excellent catalytic activity and yield. Thus, acrolein and acrylic acid can be produced industrially stably with high yield by using the catalyst. The reason why the above-described effects are exhibited by the configuration of the present invention is not necessarily clear, but is considered as follows.
Mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The main cause of the influence on the catalytic activity and yield is not determined, but it is considered that the mass loss rate L is a factor 1 In contrast, co produced when cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was dissolved in water 2+ 、Co 2+ With OH - Of (e.g. CoOH) + 、Co(OH) 2 、Co 2 OH 3+ Etc.), whereby the reactivity of other elements, particularly molybdenum as a main raw material, and cobalt changes.
Presume the mass loss rate L in cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 Low (e.g. mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ by thermogravimetric analysis 1 Less than 11 mass%), among chemical species generated when cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is dissolved in water, with Co 2+ In contrast, coOH + 、Co(OH) 2 、Co 2 OH 3+ Like Co 2+ The existing ratio of other dissolved species increases, whereby Co 2+ The existing ratio of molybdenum is decreased and the reactivity of molybdenum with cobalt is decreased. In additionIn addition, the mass loss rate L in cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was estimated 1 High (e.g. mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ by thermogravimetric analysis 1 More than 16% by mass), co is contained in the chemical species generated when the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is dissolved in water 2+ The concentration of (a) decreases and the reactivity of molybdenum with cobalt decreases. However, this mechanism is merely an assumption and, of course, does not limit the technical scope of the present invention.
It is known that although nitrate generally has high hygroscopicity, the mass reduction rate L is controlled in nitrate other than cobalt (for example, nitrates of bismuth, iron, and nickel) 1 The effect of improving the performance of the catalyst was not exhibited, which was confirmed in examples (examples 6 to 8) described later. The reason is not clear, but it can be said that only cobalt nitrate hexahydrate and mass loss rate L 1 In relation thereto, significantly contributes to the catalytic performance.
As described above, when the catalyst for acrolein and acrylic acid production is produced, the catalyst is produced by using the catalyst having a mass reduction rate L of 11 to 16 mass% 1 The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is used as a cobalt raw material, and can remarkably improve the catalytic activity and yield of the obtained catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid.
Mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 Preferably more than 11% by mass, more preferably 11.1% by mass or more, further preferably more than 11.1% by mass, more preferably 11.3% by mass or more, particularly preferably 11.5% by mass or more, and most preferably 12% by mass or more. In addition, the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 Preferably less than 16% by mass, more preferably 15.5% by mass or less, still more preferably 15% by mass or less, yet more preferably 14.5% by mass or less, particularly preferably 14.3% by mass or less, and most preferably less than 14.1% by mass. In a preferred embodiment, the mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 Is 14.0 mass% or less.
Here, the mass loss rate L for cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The measurement method of (2) will be described. As a measurement sample, it was prepared in an aluminum panThe sample obtained by accurately weighing 20mg of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was obtained. After the measurement sample was set in a sample holder of a thermogravimetric analysis (TG) apparatus, the temperature was measured at a temperature rising rate of 2 ℃/min from 25 ℃ or lower to 300 ℃ to calculate a mass loss rate L from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ 1 . The thermogravimetric analysis (TG) device used for the analysis may be of a standard, or may be a thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis device (TG-DTA) configured to be able to simultaneously measure the thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and the Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA).
Further, from the results of the thermogravimetric analysis, the mass loss rate L from 105 ℃ to 300 ℃ was calculated 2 (hereinafter referred to as "mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 2 ") and a mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate from 25 ℃ to 300 ℃ 3 (hereinafter referred to as "mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 3 "). In the present invention, the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 3 Preferably 62 to 75% by mass, more preferably 65 to 73% by mass, still more preferably 66 to 72% by mass, yet more preferably 66.3 to 71.0% by mass, particularly preferably 66.5 to 70.5% by mass, and most preferably 66.8 to 70.0% by mass. In the production of acrolein and a catalyst for acrylic acid production, by using the mass reduction rate L having the above range 3 The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is used as a cobalt raw material, and can remarkably improve the catalytic activity and yield of the obtained catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid.
Further, from the results of the thermogravimetric analysis, the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate at 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ was calculated 1 Mass loss rate L relative to cobalt nitrate hexahydrate at 25 ℃ to 300 ℃ 3 Ratio R (hereinafter referred to as "mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 R ") of the first group.
In one embodiment of the invention, the mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The ratio R of (A) to (B) is 0.147 to 0.258. In the present invention, the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The ratio R of (A) is preferably 0.163 to 0.225, more preferably 0.164 to 0.210, still more preferably 0.165 to 0.205, and still more preferably 0.165 to 0.202, particularly preferably 0.166 to 0.201, and most preferably 0.166 or more and less than 0.201. In one embodiment, the rate of mass loss L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The ratio R of (A) is 0.170 or more and less than 0.201. In the production of acrolein and a catalyst for acrylic acid production, the mass reduction rate L having the above-mentioned range is used as a raw material compound of cobalt 1 The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate of the ratio R can remarkably improve the catalytic activity and yield of the obtained catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid.
The method for producing a catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid according to the present invention includes a step of mixing a raw material mixture containing a raw material compound of molybdenum, a raw material compound of bismuth, and a raw material compound of cobalt. The raw material compound of molybdenum is a compound containing molybdenum, the raw material compound of bismuth is a compound containing bismuth, and the raw material compound of cobalt is a compound containing cobalt. Therefore, in the method for producing a catalyst for acrolein and acrylic acid production of the present invention, it is necessary to use a molybdenum-containing compound, a bismuth-containing compound, and a cobalt-containing compound as raw materials, the cobalt raw material compound being a mass reduction rate L 1 The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate can be produced by a method generally used for producing a known catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid, in addition to the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate in a specific range. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the method for producing the catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid according to the present invention will be described.
For example, the method for producing a catalyst for acrolein and acrylic acid production of the present invention includes at least one of the following steps (1) and (2) to (6): (1) A raw material mixing step of mixing raw material compounds containing an element constituting a catalytically active component (hereinafter referred to as "catalyst component element") to obtain a raw material mixture; (2) A drying step of heating the raw material mixture to obtain a dried product; (3) A pulverization step in which the dried product is pulverized to obtain a pulverized product; (4) A molding step of molding the pulverized product to obtain a molded body; (5) A loading step in which the pulverized material is loaded on an inactive carrier; and (6) a firing step of firing the molded article or the support. Alternatively, the 1 st firing step may be added after the (2) drying step or the (3) pulverizing step, and firing may be performed 2 times together with the (6). The "step of mixing a raw material mixture containing a raw material compound of molybdenum, a raw material compound of bismuth, and a raw material compound of cobalt" corresponds to "(1) a raw material mixing step of mixing raw material compounds containing a catalyst component element to obtain a raw material mixture.
In a preferred embodiment, the method for producing a catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid of the present invention comprises the following steps before the raw material mixing step: (A1) An inspection step in which the mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is measured by TG or TG-DTA 1 Carrying out measurement; (B1) A regulating step in which the mass reduction rate L of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate in the inspecting step 1 When the content of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is less than 11% by mass or exceeds 16% by mass, the mass loss rate L of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is used 1 The mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was adjusted so as to be 11 to 16 mass% 1
(A1) Inspection step
The inspection step was carried out by measuring TG or TG-DTA of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as a raw material and confirming the mass loss rate L 1 The step (2) is preferably performed before 10 to 3 hours from the raw material mixing step. In the inspection step, the mass reduction rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was confirmed 1 In the case of 11 to 16% by mass, it is preferable that the mass reduction rate L is set to the mass reduction rate L until the raw material mixing step 1 The cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as the raw material was preserved in an unchanged manner. As a method of preservation, any method may be used as long as the mass reduction rate L is 1 The method which does not change is not particularly limited, and a known method may be used. For example, the storage method may be a method in which a required amount or an amount equal to or larger than a required amount of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as a raw material is filled in a hopper, nitrogen is substituted, and then the raw material is stored in a sealed state, or a method in which an amount equal to or larger than a required amount of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as a raw material is dissolved in an aqueous solution and stored in a sealed state as an aqueous solution.
(B1) Adjustment step
The adjustment step is a step in which the mass reduction rate L of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is confirmed in the inspection step 1 When the amount is less than 11% by mass or exceeds 16% by mass, the amount is decreased by the mass loss rate L 1 And a step of treating cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as a raw material.
Examples of the treatment performed in the adjustment step include a treatment for appropriately adjusting the humidity of a storage place, the storage amount (amount filled in a container), the storage period, and the like when cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is stored. These treatments may be performed alone or in combination. Here, in the adjustment step, the mass loss rate L in the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 Less than 11% by mass and the rate of mass loss L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 When the amount exceeds 16% by mass, the above treatments are performed under different conditions.
For example, the mass loss rate L in cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 When the content is less than 11% by mass, the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is preferably subjected to moisture absorption treatment. As a treatment method for making the moisture absorption, in the above treatment, the treatment is performed under a condition of absorbing moisture. For example, the treatment method for absorbing moisture may be a method in which the required amount or an amount equal to or larger than the required amount of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as a raw material is stored in a roofed warehouse at a temperature of-10 to 50 ℃ and a relative humidity of 40 to 100% RH for 1 to 24 hours, or the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is charged into a hopper and then allowed to stand in the atmosphere for 1 to 24 hours. Mass loss rate L according to cobalt nitrate hexahydrate during storage 1 The adjustment is proper. Further, by increasing or decreasing the amount of storage (the amount of storage in the container), the time required for the treatment can be arbitrarily changed.
In addition, the mass loss rate L in, for example, cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 When the content exceeds 16% by mass, it is preferable to dry the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate. As a method of drying, in the above-mentioned treatment, the treatment is performed under a drying condition. For example, the treatment for drying can be carried out by subjecting the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used as the starting material to a temperature of-10E to EA method comprising storing the mixture in a roofed warehouse at 40 ℃ and a relative humidity of 0 to 60% RH for 1 to 24 hours or vacuum-drying the mixture for 1 to 24 hours after filling the warehouse in a hopper. Mass loss rate L according to cobalt nitrate hexahydrate during storage 1 The adjustment is proper. Further, by increasing or decreasing the amount of preservation (the amount of the preservation filled in the container), the time required for the treatment can be arbitrarily changed.
Preferably, the mass loss rate L is determined based on the mass loss rate L confirmed in the inspection step 1 After the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is treated in the adjustment step, (A1) the mass reduction rate L of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate by TG or TG-DTA is again carried out 1 And (5) an inspection step of performing measurement. That is, it is preferable to repeat the (A1) inspection step and the (B1) adjustment step until the mass loss rate L of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The content is 11 to 16% by mass. The mass loss rate L in the form of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 When the adjustment is performed so as to be 11 to 16 mass%, the data at the time of the adjustment is acquired and collected to some extent, and the mass loss rate L obtained by the adjustment can be estimated based on the data 1 The numerical value of (c).
The mass reduction rate L of the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is confirmed through the inspection step or the inspection step and the adjustment step 1 When the content is 11 to 16% by mass, at least one of (1) and (2) to (6) in the following steps is performed using the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate: (1) a raw material mixing step; (2) a drying step; (3) a pulverization step; (4) a molding process; (5) a loading step; and (6) a firing step. Hereinafter, each step will be described.
(1) Raw material mixing step
In the present invention, the raw material mixing step is a step of mixing raw material compounds (for example, a raw material compound of molybdenum, a raw material compound of bismuth, a raw material compound of cobalt, a raw material compound of iron, and a raw material compound of nickel) containing each of the catalyst component elements constituting the catalyst for producing acrolein and acrylic acid alone or in plural to obtain a raw material mixture containing all the catalyst component elements. In the raw material mixing step of the present invention, at least the raw material compound of molybdenum, the raw material compound of bismuth, and the raw material compound of cobalt are mixed to obtain the raw material mixture, but the order of mixing them is not particularly limited, and the raw material mixture may contain a raw material compound of molybdenum, a raw material compound of bismuth, and a raw material compound containing an element as a catalyst component other than the raw material compound of cobalt.
The raw material compound of the catalyst component element that can be used in the present invention is essentially a raw material compound of molybdenum, a raw material compound of bismuth, and a raw material compound of cobalt, and the raw material compound of cobalt is the mass reduction rate L 1 There are no particular restrictions on the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate other than those in the specific ranges, and salts such as oxides, hydroxides, ammonium salts, nitrates, carbonates, sulfates, chlorides, and organic acid salts of the metal elements that are generally used in such catalysts, aqueous solutions, sols, and the like of these, or mixtures of these can be used in combination. Among them, ammonium salts and nitrates are suitable as raw materials for the elements of the respective catalyst components.
Examples of the raw material compound of molybdenum include ammonium paramolybdate, ammonium dimolybdate, ammonium tetramolybdate, molybdenum trioxide, and the like, and among them, ammonium paramolybdate is preferable. Examples of the raw material compound of bismuth include bismuth chloride, bismuth nitrate, bismuth sulfate, bismuth acetate, bismuth oxide, and bismuth subcarbonate, and among these, bismuth nitrate is preferable. Examples of the raw material compound of iron include iron chloride, iron nitrate, iron sulfate, iron acetate, iron oxide, and iron carbonate, and among them, iron nitrate is preferable. Examples of the raw material compound of nickel include nickel chloride, nickel nitrate, nickel sulfate, nickel acetate, nickel oxide, and basic nickel carbonate, and among these, nickel nitrate is preferable.
The raw material mixture may be prepared by a method generally used for such a catalyst, and the raw material compounds may be dissolved or suspended in a solvent such as water to prepare a solution or slurry, and then sequentially mixed. Alternatively, one raw material compound may be divided into a plurality of solutions or slurries and mixed. Further, the respective raw material compounds may be directly added to the solution or slurry without being dissolved, and mixed. The mixing conditions (mixing order, temperature, pressure, pH, etc.) of the raw material compounds are not particularly limited. The obtained solution or slurry may be concentrated to form a cake as necessary in order to be applied to a drying method in the subsequent drying step.
In the production method of the present invention, as the raw material compound of cobalt, the mass loss rate L from 25 ℃ to 105 ℃ in thermogravimetric analysis is used 1 11 to 16 mass% of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate. Here, as described above, since cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is hygroscopic, the mass reduction rate L is usually maintained in a storage state 1 The change in the amount of time is subtle. Therefore, when the respective raw material compounds are mixed so as to have a desired composition of the catalyst component in the raw material mixing step, it is preferable to consider the mass reduction rate L for the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate 1 The values of (a) are weighed and used. In the case of producing a catalyst on an industrial scale, it is necessary to perform a raw material mixing step a plurality of times to adjust the composition of the catalyst component in each time to be the same, but if the mass reduction rate L is taken into consideration 1 The amount of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used may vary slightly from time to time. In this case, the amount of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate used and the mass loss rate L thereof can be considered 1 The amount of water used for the preparation of the solution or slurry is adjusted so that the total water content in the system of the raw material mixture is the same, but the mass reduction rate L is used only when 1 When the amount of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is 11 to 16% by mass, the total water content in the system may not be adjusted in the same manner for each time.
In the production method of the present invention, when respective nitrates are used as the raw material compounds of bismuth, iron or nickel, the mass reduction rates L of these nitrates are as described above 1 The catalyst performance is hardly affected, and therefore the mass reduction rate L based on these nitrates is not particularly required 1 The total water content in the system is adjusted, but these mass reduction rates L may be considered 1 To be appropriately adjusted.
(2) Drying step
The drying step in the present invention is a step of subjecting at least one of the raw material mixture obtained in the raw material mixing step, the pulverized material obtained in the pulverizing step described later, the molded product obtained in the molding step described later, or the carrier obtained in the supporting step described later to a heat treatment at a temperature preferably in the range of 100 to 300 ℃, more preferably 150 to 200 ℃.
In the drying step, when the raw material mixture obtained in the raw material mixing step is subjected to a heating treatment to obtain a dried product, the heating treatment method for obtaining the dried product is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately selected in accordance with the form of the raw material mixture. For example, when the raw material mixture is in the form of a solution or slurry, a dried product in the form of granules or powder may be obtained using a spray dryer, a drum dryer, or the like, or the solution or slurry may be put into a tub or the like and dried using a box dryer. When the raw material mixture is in the form of a cake obtained by concentrating a solution or slurry, a block-like or sheet-like dried product can be obtained by performing a heating treatment in an air stream, an inert gas stream such as nitrogen, or the like, or in an atmosphere using a box dryer, a tunnel dryer, or the like. When a box dryer or a tunnel dryer is used, for example, the drying time is preferably 3 to 30 hours, more preferably 5 to 20 hours. When a solution or slurry of the raw material mixture is put in a drum or the like and dried, or when the raw material mixture in a cake form is dried, a method may be used as long as a dry matter that can be pulverized in the subsequent pulverization step is obtained as necessary.
In the case where the pulverized material obtained in the pulverizing step described later, the molded product obtained in the molding step described later, or the carrier obtained in the carrying step described later is subjected to a heat treatment, a box-type dryer, a tunnel-type dryer, or the like may be used, and the dried material may be prepared by performing the heat treatment in an air stream, a stream of an inert gas such as nitrogen, or the like under a gas flow or an atmosphere.
(3) Grinding step
The pulverization step in the present invention means a step of pulverizing a dried product obtained by heating the raw material mixture, as necessary. In the production method of the present invention, the dried product obtained in the drying step is preferably pulverized into a desired particle size.
In the pulverizing step, the pulverizing method is not particularly limited, and may be selected so as to be suitable for the form of the dried product. For example, the dried product may be pulverized by using various hammer mills, jet mills, ball mills, or the like to obtain a pulverized product having a desired particle diameter which can be used in the subsequent molding step or supporting step. The pulverized product was used as a catalyst precursor. In addition, the catalyst precursor may be obtained by pulverizing, drying or calcining, and in this case, the catalyst precursor may be obtained by pulverizing, drying or calcining.
The particle size of the pulverized product (catalyst precursor) obtained through the pulverization step is not particularly limited, but is in the range of 0.1 to 500 μm, preferably 10 to 300 μm, in order to maintain good moldability or supporting property in the molding step or supporting step described later.
(4) Molding step or (5) supporting step
The forming step in the present invention is a step of forming the pulverized material obtained in the pulverizing step, a dried material obtained by drying the pulverized material again, or a calcined material thereof into a predetermined shape as a catalyst precursor. The supporting step in the present invention is a step of supporting the pulverized product obtained in the pulverizing step as the catalyst precursor, the dried product obtained by drying the pulverized product again, or a calcined product thereof on an inactive carrier having a predetermined shape.
Examples of the method for molding the catalyst include a method of molding a catalyst precursor into a predetermined shape by extrusion molding, tablet molding, or the like. These methods may be appropriately selected and used in combination. The catalyst precursor may be mixed with a powdery inactive material and used in the molding step.
Further, as a method for supporting the catalyst, for example, a method described in Japanese patent application laid-open Nos. 6-381 and 10-28877, etc., can be used to support the catalyst precursor on the inactive carrier.
Examples of the inactive carrier for supporting the catalyst precursor include alumina, silica-alumina, titania, magnesia, steatite, cordierite, silica-magnesia, silicon carbide, silicon nitride, zeolite, and the like. The shape is also not particularly limited, and known shapes such as spherical, annular, granular, and amorphous shapes can be used. When the carrier is spherical, the diameter is preferably in the range of 2 to 10mm, and the amount of the catalytically active component supported on the inactive carrier is preferably in the range of 20 to 300% by mass.
The catalyst shape is not particularly limited, and may be any of spherical, cylindrical, annular, amorphous, and the like, when the catalyst is spherical, the diameter is preferably in the range of 4 to 12 mm. Of course, in the case of a spherical shape, it is not necessary to be a perfect sphere, but it is sufficient that the spherical shape is substantially spherical, and in the case of a cylindrical shape and an annular shape, the sectional shape is not necessarily a perfect circle, either, but it is sufficient that the spherical shape is substantially circular.
In the molding step and the supporting step, a molding aid for improving moldability, a supporting aid for improving a supporting state, a binder, and the like may be used. Specific examples thereof include organic compounds such as ethylene glycol, glycerin, propionic acid, maleic acid, benzyl alcohol, propanol, butanol and phenols, nitric acid, ammonium nitrate and ammonium carbonate.
In addition, for the purpose of improving mechanical strength, inorganic fibers such as glass fibers, ceramic fibers, metal fibers, mineral fibers, carbon fibers, silica, alumina, titanium oxide, silicon carbide, and silicon nitride, which are generally known, may be added to the catalyst as a reinforcing material.
The method of adding these inorganic fibers is not particularly limited, and any method may be used as long as the inorganic fibers can be uniformly dispersed and contained in the catalyst. For example, the inorganic fiber may be added to the raw material mixture containing the catalyst component element, or the inorganic fiber may be added to the catalyst precursor obtained by drying and pulverizing the raw material mixture containing the catalyst component element.
In addition, a pore-forming agent may be added for the purpose of forming appropriate fine pores in the catalyst. The pore-forming agent is not particularly limited, and starch, cellulose, urea, polyvinyl alcohol, melamine cyanurate, and the like can be used.
(6) Firing Process
In the present invention, the firing step is a step of subjecting the molded article obtained in the molding step or the carrier obtained in the carrying step to a heating treatment at a high temperature.
The firing furnace used in the firing step is not particularly limited, and a box-type firing furnace, a tunnel-type firing furnace, or the like, which is generally used, may be used. The firing temperature is 350 to 600 ℃, preferably 400 to 550 ℃, more preferably 420 to 500 ℃, and the firing time is 1 to 15 hours, preferably 2 to 10 hours. The firing atmosphere may be an oxidizing atmosphere, and is preferably a gas atmosphere containing molecular oxygen. As the molecular oxygen-containing gas, air is preferably used.
Next, the method for producing acrolein and acrylic acid according to the present invention will be described. The method for producing acrolein and acrylic acid of the present invention is a method for catalytic gas phase oxidation of propylene using the catalyst obtained by the production method of the present invention, that is, a method comprising a step of obtaining the catalyst by the production method of the present invention and a step of catalytic gas phase oxidation of propylene using the catalyst. In the method for producing acrolein and acrylic acid of the present invention, it is preferable that the catalyst obtained by the production method of the present invention is filled in a reaction tube in a reactor, and a raw material gas containing propylene and molecular oxygen is introduced into the reaction tube to perform a catalytic gas phase oxidation reaction.
The reactor for producing acrolein and acrylic acid by catalytic gas phase oxidation of propylene in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is a fixed bed reactor, and a fixed bed multitubular reactor, a plate reactor, and the like which are generally used can be used, and a fixed bed multitubular reactor is preferred. The inner diameter of the reaction tube in the fixed-bed multitubular reactor is usually 15 to 50mm, more preferably 20 to 40mm, and still more preferably 22 to 38mm.
The fixed-bed multitubular reactor does not necessarily need to be packed with a single catalyst in each reaction tube, and a plurality of known catalysts may be packed so as to form layers (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "reaction zones") separately. For example, a method of filling catalysts having different supporting ratios so that the supporting ratio is increased from the raw material gas inlet side to the outlet side, a method of diluting a part of the catalyst with an inactive carrier or the like, or a method of combining these methods may be employed. In this case, the number of reaction zones is appropriately determined depending on the reaction conditions and the scale of the reactor, but if the number of reaction zones is too large, the operation of filling the catalyst becomes complicated, and the like, and therefore, it is industrially preferable to be about 2 to 6.
The reaction conditions in the present invention are not particularly limited, and any reaction conditions can be used as long as they are generally used in such reactions. For example, propylene in an amount of preferably 1 to 15% by volume, more preferably 4 to 12% by volume; preferably 0.5 to 25% by volume, more preferably 2 to 20% by volume, of molecular oxygen; preferably 0 to 30% by volume, more preferably 0 to 25% by volume, of water vapor; and a mixed gas composed of an inert gas such as nitrogen and the like as the balance, at a temperature of 250 to 450 ℃ and a pressure of 0.1 to 1.0MPa, at 300 to 5000Hr -1 The space velocity (in the normal state) may be in contact with the catalyst.
The grade of propylene as the reaction raw material gas is not particularly limited, and polymer grade, chemical grade propylene, or the like can be used. Further, a mixed gas containing propylene obtained by an oxidative dehydrogenation reaction of propane may be used, or air, oxygen, or the like may be added to the mixed gas as necessary.
