Description

Isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst with carrier of hollow spherical mesoporous molecular sieve silica gel composite material and preparation method and application thereof

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of catalysts, in particular to an isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst with a carrier made of a hollow spherical mesoporous molecular sieve silica gel composite material, a preparation method of the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst, the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method and application of the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst in preparation of isobutene through isobutane dehydrogenation.

Background

Isobutene is an important organic chemical raw material and is mainly used for preparing various organic raw materials and fine chemicals such as methyl tert-butyl ether, butyl rubber, methyl ethyl ketone, polyisobutylene, methyl methacrylate, isoprene, tert-butyl phenol, tert-butyl amine, 1, 4-butanediol, ABS resin and the like. The main sources of isobutene are the by-product C4 fraction from an apparatus for producing ethylene by steam cracking of naphtha, the by-product C4 fraction from a refinery Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) apparatus, and the by-product tert-butyl alcohol (TAB) in the synthesis of propylene oxide by the Halcon method.

In recent years, with the development and utilization of downstream products of isobutene, the demand of isobutene is increased year by year, and the traditional isobutene production cannot meet the huge demand of the chemical industry on isobutene, so the research and development work of a new isobutene production technology becomes a hot spot of the chemical industry. Among the most competitive technologies, isobutane dehydrogenation, n-butene skeletal isomerization and isobutene production by a novel FCC unit are known. Among the methods, the research on the reaction for preparing isobutene by directly dehydrogenating isobutane is early, and the industrial production is realized. China has abundant C4 resources, but the chemical utilization rate of C4 fraction is low in China, most of isobutane is directly used as fuel, and the waste is serious. The reasonable utilization of C4 resource is an urgent task in the petrochemical research field. Therefore, the isobutene prepared by dehydrogenating isobutane has a great development prospect in China.

The catalysts for preparing isobutene by isobutane dehydrogenation mainly comprise two types: oxide catalysts and noble metal catalysts. Oxygen gasThe catalyst mainly comprises Cr₂O₃、V₂O₅、Fe₂O₃、MoO₃ZnO, etc., and a composite oxide thereof, such as V-Sb-O, V-Mo-O, Ni-V-O, V-Nb-O, Cr-Ce-O, molybdate, etc. Compared with noble metal catalysts, oxide catalysts are less expensive. However, the catalyst is easy to deposit carbon, and the catalytic activity, selectivity and stability are low. In addition, most oxide catalysts contain components with high toxicity, which is not favorable for environmental protection. The research on dehydrogenation reactions on noble metal catalysts has a long history, and noble metal catalysts have higher activity, better selectivity, and are more environmentally friendly than other metal oxide catalysts. However, the catalyst cost is high due to the expensive price of noble metals, and the performance of such catalysts has not yet reached a satisfactory level.

In order to improve the reaction performance of the catalyst for preparing isobutene by isobutane dehydrogenation, researchers have done a lot of work. Such as: the catalyst performance is improved by changing the preparation method of the catalyst (industrial catalysis, 2014, 22(2): 148-. However, the specific surface area of the currently used carrier is small, which is not beneficial to the dispersion of the active metal component on the surface of the carrier, and is also not beneficial to the diffusion of raw materials and products in the reaction process.

Therefore, how to improve the reaction performance of the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst is a problem to be solved in the field of preparing isobutene by isobutane dehydrogenation.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to overcome the defects of uneven dispersion of noble metal active components and poor catalytic activity and stability of the existing isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst, and provides an isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst with a hollow spherical mesoporous molecular sieve silica gel composite material as a carrier, a preparation method thereof, the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method and application of the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst in preparing isobutene by isobutane dehydrogenation.

In order to achieve the above object, a first aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing an isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) under the existence of a template agent, trimethylpentane and ethanol, tetramethoxysilane is contacted with an acid agent, and a product obtained after the contact is crystallized and filtered to obtain a filter cake of a hollow spherical mesoporous molecular sieve;

(b) contacting water glass, inorganic acid and glycerol, and filtering a product obtained after the contact to obtain a silica gel filter cake;

(c) mixing the filter cake of the hollow spherical mesoporous molecular sieve and the filter cake of silica gel, adding a binder for ball milling, pulping solid powder obtained after ball milling by using water, then carrying out spray drying, and removing the template agent and the binder in the obtained product;

(d) and (c) carrying out thermal activation treatment on the hollow spherical mesoporous molecular sieve silica gel composite material carrier obtained in the step (c), then carrying out immersion treatment in a solution containing a Pt component precursor and a Zn component precursor, and then sequentially carrying out solvent removal treatment, drying and roasting.

A second aspect of the invention provides an isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst prepared by the aforementioned process.

The third aspect of the invention provides an application of the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method in preparing isobutene through isobutane dehydrogenation, wherein the method for preparing isobutene through isobutane dehydrogenation comprises the following steps: isobutane was subjected to a dehydrogenation reaction in the presence of a catalyst and hydrogen.

After intensive research, the inventor of the invention finds that the carrier structure (including physical structures such as specific surface area, pore volume and pore size distribution, and chemical structures such as surface acid sites and electronic properties) of the noble metal catalyst not only has important influence on the dispersion degree of active metal components, but also directly influences mass transfer and diffusion in the reaction process. Thus, the catalytic properties of heterogeneous catalysts, such as activity, selectivity and stability, depend both on the catalytic characteristics of the active component and on the characteristics of the catalyst support. In order to reduce the content of noble metal in the catalyst as much as possible and improve the activity and stability of the catalyst at the same time, the preparation process of the carrier is of great importance. Most commercially available activated alumina has too many surface hydroxyl groups and too strong acidity. When the aluminum oxide is used as a carrier to prepare the dehydrogenation catalyst, the surface of the catalyst is easy to deposit carbon in the reaction process, and the rapid inactivation is caused.

Compared with the prior art, the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method provided by the invention has the following advantages:

(3) in the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method provided by the invention, the stability of a Zn center with an oxidized structure under a high-temperature reduction condition is very high, the inactivation of a single Pt component loaded on a carrier can be inhibited, carbon deposition is reduced, a strong acid center on the surface of the carrier is effectively neutralized, the surface of the carrier is free from acidity, and the dispersion degree of the Pt component is improved through a geometric effect, so that the carbon deposition risk in the reaction process of preparing isobutene by anaerobic dehydrogenation of isobutane can be remarkably reduced, the selectivity of a target product is improved, and the stability of the isobutane dehydrogenation catalyst is improved;

(4) the mesoporous molecular sieve material with the spherical shape, the larger specific surface area and the larger pore volume is synthesized by utilizing the silicon source with low cost, which is beneficial to the good dispersion of the noble metal component on the surface of the carrier, thereby ensuring that the isobutane catalyst is not easy to be inactivated due to the agglomeration of active metal particles in the reaction process;
