Description

Process for preparing adipic acid by catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane and preparation method of acid modified sepiolite catalyst
Technical Field
The present invention belongs to a process for preparing adipic acid by using cyclohexane as raw material in one step, and an acid modified sepiolite catalyst and a preparation method of the acid modified sepiolite catalyst used in the process.
Background
Adipic acid (also known as adipic acid) is white crystal at normal temperature, is one of the most important compounds in all aliphatic dicarboxylic acids produced industrially, is widely used for preparing polyamide nylon-66, polyurethane foam plastics, acidifiers in leavening agents, plastics and lubricant additives, and is used for producing intermediates of pharmacy and pesticides and bactericides; and also as a basic raw material for adiponitrile, hexamethylenediamine and polyester polyol in the organic synthesis industry. At present, with the rapid development of industries such as nylon, polyurethane and the like in China, the consumption of adipic acid is steadily increased, and the market competition is gradually intensified. The global annual production of adipic acid currently exceeds 350 million tons and is also on the increasing trend each year.
In the traditional industrial production process of adipic acid, a cyclohexane two-step synthesis oxidation process is mainly adopted, which accounts for 86% -93% of the total production capacity, the process comprises the steps of firstly carrying out air oxidation on cyclohexane under the catalysis of cobaltate homogeneous phase at high temperature (125 ℃ -165 ℃) and high pressure (8-15 atm) to obtain cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol (commonly called KA oil), and then oxidizing the KA oil into adipic acid under the catalysis of 40-50% nitric acid and vanadium base, although the process is adopted by nearly 95% of worldwide industrial production adipic acid, equipment is seriously corroded due to the use of concentrated nitric acid with strong oxidizing property, and a large amount of nitrogen oxides which seriously pollute the environment are generated; meanwhile, the process flow is complex and the reaction conditions are harsh, and HNO is added3High oxidation energy consumption and low yield, which always troubles the adipic acid production industryThe development of the process. At present, the synthesis of adipic acid is still a worldwide technical problem, so that research and development of a novel green and environment-friendly process with high yield of adipic acid is of great significance for industrial application. Aiming at the main defects of the two-step cyclohexane production process, domestic and foreign scholars conduct basic research on the one-step cyclohexane method, namely, the direct oxidation of cyclohexane to prepare adipic acid, and are dedicated to searching a new process which is more green, environment-friendly and concise. The green process for preparing adipic acid by the cyclohexane one-step oxidation method adopts green oxidants such as oxygen, air or hydrogen peroxide to replace HNO3The simple process of the one-step method replaces the complex process of the two-step method, and the green heterogeneous catalyst with high efficiency and low cost replaces the low-activity homogeneous catalyst, thereby conforming to the development direction of the green chemical industry. At present, scholars at home and abroad successively develop a plurality of new heterogeneous or homogeneous catalytic processes for the aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane, such as N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI), metalloaluminophosphates (MAPO, M: Mn, Co, Fe), zeolite Y and the like, and overcome the defects and make great progress. Loder first proposed acetate (Co (OAc) in 19402) The adipic acid is used as a catalyst, and air oxidation replaces nitric acid oxidation. Later, many scholars have studied and improved the homogeneous system, Tanaka has improved the loder method, add acetaldehyde as the auxiliary agent, at 90 ℃, 1.8MPa, react for 9h, cyclohexane conversion reaches 88%, adipic acid selectivity reaches 73%. Ishii et al developed a method for preparing adipic acid by directly oxidizing cyclohexane with molecular oxygen at 100 ℃ for 6 hours by using a mixture of N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) and cobalt acetylacetonate as a catalyst and acetic acid as a solvent, wherein the cyclohexane conversion rate is 73% and the adipic acid selectivity is 53%, and the method is one of representatives in the field. However, the oxidation processes are homogeneous reactions, necessary reaction solvents and initiators are needed, the environment is still damaged, and the problems of complex reaction and separation processes, long process flow and the like are solved. Patents ZL 03118249.6 and CN 10137879B disclose the invention of metalloporphyrin catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane to prepare adipic acid, although the method has high catalytic efficiency, the metalloporphyrin type catalyst is expensive, the preparation method is complex, the reaction time is long, the reaction by-products are many, and the metalloporphyrin type catalyst cannot be recovered and reused.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims at solving the problems of using corrosive concentrated nitric acid raw materials and generating three wastes which seriously pollute the environment, namely nitric oxide, nitric acid vapor, waste acid liquid and the like in the traditional adipic acid production process, provides a green process for preparing adipic acid by catalyzing the oxidation of cyclohexane by molecular oxygen by using acid modified sepiolite in one step, solves the problems of environmental pollution, high atomic rate, high production cost and the like in the current production process, and simultaneously has the advantages of easily obtained catalyst raw materials and low price; the acid modification process of the catalyst is simple.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows: a preparation method of a series of acid modified sepiolite comprises the following steps in sequence: taking sepiolite, carrying out acid modification treatment on the sepiolite by using different inorganic acids (hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid and phosphoric acid) and organic acids (acetic acid, monochloroacetic acid, trichloroacetic acid and benzenesulfonic acid) under the conditions of different temperatures, acid concentrations, stirring time and the like, washing the sepiolite to be neutral by using deionized water after treatment, and then filtering, drying and grinding the sepiolite.
The sepiolite modified by acid is adopted in the invention, so that the structure of the sepiolite is changed. Because structural units of the sepiolite are internal channel structures with average pore sizes formed by silicon-oxygen tetrahedrons and magnesium-oxygen octahedrons in an alternating mode, the sepiolite Si-O-Mg-O-Si bonds are changed into two Si-OH bonds by adopting acid treatment, namely, the sepiolite has an open structure, and the internal channel communicated surface structure is obviously changed, so that the specific surface area and the integral catalytic performance of the catalyst are improved.
