After many years of exploration, the process for preparing hydrocarbon, alcohol and ether products by using synthesis gas gradually comes into the sight of people. The synthesis gas is a raw material gas with hydrogen and carbon monoxide as main components, has wide sources, can be generated by gasifying solid fuels such as coal or coke and the like, and can also be prepared from light hydrocarbons such as natural gas, naphtha and the like. At present, the process is moving to large-scale industrialization, and a precondition is created for promoting the industrial application of synthesis gas, wherein the research on the preparation of low carbon alcohol is concerned.

[ detailed description ] embodiments
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
Example one
As shown in fig. 1, a method for preparing a catalyst includes:
step S1: providing a graphitized carbon material, and performing activation treatment to obtain an activated graphitized carbon material;
step S2: providing a copper zinc aluminum salt solution and an alkaline solution;
step S3: dispersing the active graphitized carbon material in water, and simultaneously adding the copper-zinc-aluminum salt solution and an alkaline solution into the water for coprecipitation to obtain a precursor;
step S4: and carrying out heat treatment on the precursor to obtain the required catalyst.
The steps S1 and S2 may be performed simultaneously or separately, and the order is not limited.
In step S3, the aqueous solution in which the active graphitized carbon material is dispersed is used as a carrier, and the copper zinc aluminum salt solution and the alkaline solution are added at the same time, copper ions, zinc ions, and aluminum ions contained in the copper zinc aluminum salt solution are combined with hydroxide ions in the alkaline solution to form a precipitate, and the precipitate is further combined with the active graphitized carbon material dispersed in water to form a composite.
Then, in step S4, that is, after heat treatment, a catalyst is obtained, which is a composite containing copper, zinc oxide and alumina, and is formed by using an activated graphitized carbon material as a carrier, and may be expressed as Cu/ZnO/Al2O3X% C. Wherein Cu/ZnO/Al2O3As an active material, an activated graphitized carbon material (i.e., C) is used as a carrier, and x% represents the mass fraction of the activated graphitized carbon material in the catalyst. In the present invention, x% is preferably 10 to 50%.
The preparation method of the catalyst provided by the invention has the following advantages:
(1) the graphitized carbon material and the copper-zinc-aluminum salt solution are adopted as raw materials, so that the preparation cost is low, and the method is suitable for industrial production.
(2) The prepared catalyst is particularly suitable for preparing synthesis gas to prepare isobutanol, and has high CO conversion rate and isobutanol selectivity.
(3) The prepared catalyst is used for synthesizing isobutanol, and the reaction condition is mild.
As further explained herein, Cu/ZnO/Al in the catalyst2O3The active material is easy to agglomerate, so that the activity of the active material is influenced, and the performance of the catalyst is further influenced; the active graphitized carbon material is used as a carrier, so that Cu/ZnO/Al can be effectively relieved2O3The phenomenon of easy agglomeration promotes the dispersion of active components, ensures the activity of active substances to be reflected in the catalyst, and further ensures the performance of the catalyst. The catalyst performance as referred to herein includes conversion, selectivity, and whether or not the reaction conditions are mild.
And the required catalyst is obtained by in-situ compounding in a coprecipitation mode, namely step S3, on the premise that the active graphitized carbon material and the active substance can be well combined, the active substance can be further ensured to be uniformly dispersed. In addition, the prepared catalyst contains the graphitized carbon material, and can promote electron transfer under the action of delocalized large pi bonds of the graphitized carbon material, so that when the catalyst prepared by the preparation method of the catalyst is used for preparing isobutanol by synthesis gas, the CO conversion rate and the isobutanol selectivity can be effectively improved.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2, step S1 includes:
step S11: graphitized carbon materials are provided.
Preferably, the carbon content of the graphitized carbon material is greater than 99% and the graphitized carbon content is greater than 90%. The graphitized carbon material can be one or a combination of more of mesoporous carbon, graphite, carbon fiber and carbon black. The graphitized carbon material is preferably graphite, and the conductivity of the graphite is better, so that the CO conversion rate and the isobutanol selectivity can be better ensured. Further, the graphitized carbon material has a specific surface area of more than 80m2Per g, the particle size is 6-32 μm, and the pore volume is 0.4-0.6cm3·g-1The aperture is 10-15 nm. By determining the parameters, the performance of the prepared catalyst can be further ensured.
Step S12: activating the graphitized carbon material with an acidic solution or an alkaline solution.
The activation treatment can destroy the tube wall of the graphitized carbon material to increase the functional groups on the surface of the graphitized carbon material, thereby being favorable for being used as a carrier to load metals.
In some embodiments, the activation treatment is activating the graphitized carbon material by using an alkaline solution, and the molar concentration of the alkaline solution is 2-8 mol/L; among them, potassium hydroxide is commonly used.
In some preferred embodiments, the activation treatment is to activate the graphitized carbon material by using an acidic solution, and the molar concentration of the acidic solution is 10-20 mol/L. Compared with the method for activating the graphitized carbon material by using an alkaline solution, the method for activating the graphitized carbon material by using an acidic solution has the advantages that the surface defects of the activated graphitized carbon material are overcome, the activated graphitized carbon material can be combined with precipitates, the electron transfer of active components in the catalyst is promoted, and the CO conversion rate and the isobutanol selectivity are further ensured. More preferably, the acidic solution is a strong acid, preferably nitric acid or a mixed acid of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. Nitric acid and sulfuric acid have good corrosivity, so that more surface functional groups can be obtained. Wherein, the nitric acid can adopt concentrated nitric acid with the mass fraction of 65%, and the sulfuric acid can adopt concentrated sulfuric acid with the mass fraction of 98%. When a mixed acid of nitric acid and sulfuric acid is used, the volume ratio of the nitric acid to the sulfuric acid is preferably 1 (2-5).
Further, the activation treatment specifically comprises: providing an acid solution with the molar concentration of 10-20 mol/L; immersing the graphitized carbon material in an acid solution, and refluxing for 2-4h at 50-90 ℃ to obtain an activated product; and washing the activated product, and drying at 80-120 ℃ for 16-24h to obtain the activated graphitized carbon material. The activation effect of the graphitized carbon material is ensured by refluxing the acidic solution and further determining the temperature and time.
Step S13: and washing the activated product, and drying at 80-120 ℃ for 16-24h to obtain the activated graphitized carbon material. The washing may be suction filtration or centrifugal filtration, and the like, and is mainly to remove the residual acidic solution, and the obtained activated graphitized carbon material is approximately neutral.
As described earlier, Cu/ZnO/Al in the catalyst2O3As active material, in the active material Cu/ZnO/Al2O3In (1), Cu/ZnO is a bifunctional component. Cu is the main active center and plays a role in activating, dissociating and adsorbing H2The function of (1); ZnO promotes the dispersion of Cu, and has the effects of resisting sulfur poisoning, prolonging the service life of the catalyst and the like; al (Al)2O3Is a structural assistant and plays a role in dispersing active components, preventing the active components from sintering and the like.
In some preferred embodiments, the mole numbers of copper, zinc and aluminum in the copper-zinc-aluminum salt solution are respectively n2、n3、n4,n2:n3:n4(1-3): (0.5-1.5): (0.4-1.2). The molar ratio of copper, zinc and aluminum in the copper-zinc-aluminum salt solution is determined, and the active substance Cu/ZnO/Al in the obtained catalyst is determined2O3Thereby better ensuring the activity of the catalyst. Preferably, n is2:n3:n4(1.5-2.5): 0.8-1.2): 0.6-1); more preferably, n2:n3:n42:1: 0.8. The copper zinc aluminium salt solution may be obtained by dissolving the corresponding soluble salts in water and preferably using the same anion, such as copper nitrate, zinc nitrate and aluminium nitrate, or copper sulphate, zinc sulphate or aluminium sulphate, or copper chloride, zinc chloride and aluminium chloride.
The active graphitized carbon material in the prepared catalyst is used as a carrier, and if the content is too low, the effects of uniformly dispersing active substances, promoting electron transfer and the like cannot be well achieved; if the content is too high, the content of active material is correspondingly low, which affects the activity of the catalyst obtained. Therefore, the catalyst with better catalytic performance can be better ensured to be obtained by determining the mass fraction of the active graphitized carbon material in the catalyst. Wherein, the mass fraction of the activated graphitized carbon material in the catalyst is preferably 10-50%. It will be understood that when the number of moles of copper, zinc and aluminium in the copper-zinc-aluminium salt solution is determined, the catalyst active material Cu/ZnO/Al can be determined2O3The mass of the active graphitized carbon material in the catalyst can be further determined by adjusting the mass of the graphitized carbon material. Therefore, it is preferable that the graphitized carbon material has a molar number n1Then n is1:n2:n3:n4(10-20): (1-3): (0.5-1.5): 0.4-1.2). Preferably, n is1:n2:n3:n4(12-18): (1.5-2.5): (0.8-1.2): 0.6-1). It will be appreciated that the catalyst provided by the present invention is prepared by physical reactions without loss of the components (i.e. carbon, copper, zinc and aluminium) and therefore the number of moles of components in the final catalyst prepared.
In some preferred embodiments, in step S3, the adding speed of the copper zinc aluminum salt solution and the alkaline solution is controlled so that the coprecipitation is performed at a pH of 5.0 to 7.0. It will be appreciated that the copper zinc aluminium salt solution is acidic due to hydrolysis of the metal ions and the alkaline solution is alkaline, both being determined by monitoring the pH during additionThe addition rate and the addition amount of the catalyst are controlled, so that the smooth operation of coprecipitation is ensured and the required reaction product is obtained. Wherein the alkaline solution may be NaOH, KOH, Na2CO3、K2CO3One or more of NaOH solution, KOH solution, NaOH and Na2CO3Mixed solution of (3), KOH and K2CO3The mixed solution of (1). Preferably, the precursor is stirred and washed to neutrality before heat treatment, and generally stirring is needed for 0.5-2h to obtain a uniformly dispersed precursor; the washing may be performed by centrifugal filtration, suction filtration or the like.
Preferably, referring to fig. 3, step S4, namely, performing a heat treatment on the precursor to obtain the desired catalyst, further includes:
step S41: drying the precursor at 60-100 ℃ for 10-20h to obtain a dried product; and
step S42: the dried product is calcined at the temperature of 300-500 ℃ for 3-5h to obtain the required catalyst.

The catalyst can be expressed as Cu/ZnO/Al2O3X% C. Wherein Cu/ZnO/Al2O3As an active material, an activated graphitized carbon material (i.e., C) is used as a carrier, and x% represents the mass fraction of the activated graphitized carbon material in the catalyst. The catalyst is particularly suitable for preparing synthesis gas to prepare isobutanol, and has high CO conversion rate and isobutanol selectivity; and the prepared catalyst is used for synthesizing isobutanol, and the reaction condition is mild.
The active graphitized carbon material in the catalyst is used as a carrier, and if the content is too low, the effects of uniformly dispersing active substances, promoting electron transfer and the like cannot be well achieved; if the content is too high, the content of active material is correspondingly low, which affects the activity of the catalyst obtained. Therefore, the catalyst with better catalytic performance can be better ensured to be obtained by determining the mass fraction of the graphitized carbon material in the catalyst. Wherein, the mass fraction of the activated graphitized carbon material in the catalyst is preferably 10-50%. More preferably, the mass fraction of the graphitized carbon material in the catalyst is 20-40%; specifically, the mass fraction of the graphitized carbon material in the catalyst may be 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%.
