Description

Catalyst for preparing methanol and co-producing ethylene glycol by hydrogenating ethylene carbonate and preparation method thereof
Technical Field

CO 2 2 The hydrogenation for producing the methanol is not only an option for the production and the utilization of the methanol as an industrial product, but also brings a new solution to the global energy and environment problemsThe solution is decided. But due to CO 2 The method has the advantages of thermodynamic stability and kinetic inertia, harsh reaction conditions for preparing methanol by direct hydrogenation, low equilibrium conversion rate and poor selectivity of target products. By introducing CO 2 The process for synthesizing Ethylene Carbonate (EC) by reacting with ethylene oxide and further hydrogenating to prepare methanol has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, high conversion rate and 100% atomic utilization rate, and has good technical and economic advantages and market application potential as the ethylene glycol is co-produced while the methanol is produced.
Although organic noble metal catalysts such as a Pincer type ruthenium complex and the like show good activity and selectivity in a hydrogenation reaction of ethylene carbonate, the preparation process is complex, the price is high and the catalysts are difficult to recover. Copper-based catalysts are widely used in ester hydrogenation systems due to their good C-O/C = O bond selective hydrogenation capability. However, in the hydrogenation of ethylene carbonate, there is still a hydrogen-to-ester ratio (i.e., the molar ratio of hydrogen to ethylene carbonate, H) required for the reaction feed 2 the/EC) is higher, the selectivity of the product methanol is lower, the stability of the catalyst is poorer, and the like. At present, in a fixed bed reactor, a large excess of hydrogen (H) is required in the feed to the ethylene carbonate hydrogenation reaction 2 the/EC is generally above 200) to maintain a higher conversion of ethylene carbonate. However, in industrial applications, such a high hydrogen-to-ester ratio leads to an increase in hydrogen gas circulation, increases the requirements on equipment parameters such as compressors, and greatly increases the equipment cost and power cost required for the process. Therefore, the high-activity copper-based catalyst is designed, so that the ethylene carbonate hydrogenation reaction has higher ethylene carbonate conversion rate and methanol selectivity under lower hydrogen-ester ratio, has good stability and realizes CO 2 The key point of the efficient utilization of the methanol is to produce the methanol.
