Description

Binder-free FAU type molecular sieve particles and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic synthetic materials, and particularly relates to FAU type molecular sieve particles without a binder, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Molecular sieves have been widely used in the adsorptive separation, catalytic and cation exchange industries because of their advantages of good stability, unique shape selectivity, adjustable pore structure, large specific surface area, mature preparation process, etc. The FAU type molecular sieve can be divided into X type and Y type molecular sieves, wherein the X type molecular sieve refers to the ratio of silicon to aluminum [ n (Si)/n (A1)]The molecular sieve is a faujasite molecular sieve of 1 to 1.5, and the Y-type molecular sieve is a silica-alumina ratio [ n (Si)/n (A1)]The faujasite molecular sieve is a faujasite molecular sieve of 1.5-3, and the X-type molecular sieve and the Y-type molecular sieve have the same crystal structure. The FAU type molecular sieve can utilize the difference of interaction force between adsorbate molecules and molecular sieve active sites to realize selective adsorption separation of the molecular sieve, and is often used for separating olefin/alkane and CO2/CH4、N2/CH4And the like. The adsorption performance of the molecular sieve can be changed by modifying the FAU type molecular sieve with different metal ions (such as Mg, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn and the like).
At present, the process for preparing the FAU type molecular sieve by hydrothermal synthesis is mature, but the molecular sieve synthesized by the method in industry is generally crystal powder, and if the molecular sieve is directly applied to industrial production, the problems of large dust, environmental pollution, inconvenient operation, large bed pressure drop, difficult recovery, easy inactivation, easy aggregation and the like can exist. Therefore, in industrial practice, it is usually necessary to add a certain amount (about 20% by mass) of a binder (clay, kaolin, silica sol, etc.) to give it a specific shape (stripe, block, sphere, etc.) and a certain mechanical strength. However, the added binder is an adsorption ineffective component, so that the addition of the binder not only dilutes the content of the effective component (i.e., FAU type molecular sieve crystals) in the product, resulting in a decrease in adsorption capacity; but also can block partial pore channels of the molecular sieve, thereby causing adverse effects on the diffusion and mass transfer of adsorbate in the molecular sieve, causing the reduction of the adsorption/desorption rate of the molecular sieve and greatly influencing the adsorption performance of the molecular sieve. In addition, the added binder has no adsorption selectivity, so that the adsorption selectivity of the FAU type molecular sieve to a system to be separated is reduced, namely the adsorption separation efficiency is reduced. In addition, the binder can cause adverse side reactions, for example, the metal oxide component contained in the mineral binder can catalyze the condensation of unsaturated hydrocarbons, accelerate the coking and inactivation of the FAU-type molecular sieve in the adsorption or catalytic reaction process, and shorten the regeneration period and the service life of the FAU-type molecular sieve.
An effective solution to the adverse effects of binders is to use binder-free molecular sieve particles in an industrial process. At present, the process for synthesizing the molecular sieve without the adhesive mainly comprises an adhesive conversion method and a direct preparation method. The binder conversion method is also a relatively common method for synthesizing binder-free molecular sieves, and is to add some mineral clay into the powder molecular sieve, shape the powder molecular sieve and achieve relatively high mechanical strength to meet industrial application, and convert the binder into the target molecular sieve through secondary hydrothermal treatment. This method is cumbersome to operate, requires two hydrothermal syntheses, and the second hydrothermal treatment may adversely affect the original molecular sieve crystals, and in addition, the binder components are difficult to completely convert. The direct preparation method is also called as in-situ synthesis method, which is to prepare the embryo particles containing the aluminum source or the silicon source in advance, then add the embryo particles into the prepared crystallization mother liquor, and directly convert the embryo particles into the molecular sieve particles with specific structures after hydrothermal treatment. The method has obvious advantages in adsorption performance because no binder is added.
The existing in-situ synthesis process of the binderless molecular sieve particles mainly aims at the A-type molecular sieve, and patents US3359068 and US3348911 report a process for preparing a binderless spherical A-type molecular sieve by a two-step method. The method relates to high-temperature hot oil, and has great environmental pollution. Patent CN 87105499a also discloses a two-step method for preparing binderless spherical a-type molecular sieve. The method is optimized to the method, high-temperature hot oil is replaced by low-temperature oil phase, and pollution is effectively reduced. However, these methods require two steps to prepare the binderless spherical A-type molecular sieve, i.e. the binderless spherical A-type molecular sieve is prepared by synthesizing silica spheres by using forming oil, aging, washing with water, drying, roasting and the like, and then crystallizing the silica spheres in crystallization mother liquor. In the prior art, corresponding embryo bodies are prepared firstly, and then are converted into target molecular sieves through corresponding hydrothermal treatment after separation, washing, drying and other processes, so that the process flow is complicated.
Literature Synthesis of binderless Zeolite X microspheres and theirCO2adsorption properties Technology (Separation and Purification Technology, 2013, vol. 118, p. 188) binder-free spherical X-type molecular sieves were prepared by a chitosan-assisted technique. The technology is simply described as that in sodium metaaluminate alkaline solution, silica/chitosan mixed microspheres are treated by dipping, gel-hydrothermal synthesis to obtain molecular sieve/chitosan hybrid microspheres, and then the chitosan is removed by calcination to prepare the binderless X-type molecular sieve microspheres, and the technology essentially adopts organic chitosan as a binder.
At present, no report of in-situ synthesis of binder-free FAU type molecular sieve particles by a one-pot method is found.
