Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of hydroxylammonium salts by catalytic reduction of nitrogen monoxide with hydrogen in the presence of an acid and a hydrogenation catalyst.
  • Hydroxylamine is mainly used for the production of caprolactam.
  • the nitrogen monoxide is obtained by the reaction of ammonia and oxygen according to the Ostwald process and used directly in the hydroxylamine synthesis.
  • the nitrogen monoxide is cleaned in a scrubber and converted into hydroxylamine by reaction with hydrogen below 50 ° C. with a suitable noble metal / supported catalyst in sulfuric acid suspension. Small amounts of ammonium sulfate and nitrous oxide are a by-product.
  • supported platinum catalysts are used whose selectivity to hydroxylamine is maximized by partial poisoning.
  • DE-A-956 038 describes a process for the preparation of hydroxylammonium salts, in which the reduction of nitrogen monoxide is carried out on supported platinum-graphite catalysts, which is achieved by reductive precipitation of platinum on suspended graphite supports, optionally with the addition of poisoning ones Agents such as sulfur, selenium, arsenic or tellurium compounds can be obtained.
  • These catalysts have the disadvantage that the reactivity and selectivity decrease rapidly with prolonged use.
  • DE-A-40 22 851 describes supported platinum-graphite catalysts for the hydrogenation of nitrogen monoxide, the selectivity of which is related to the apparent density, compressive strength and porosity of the graphite support.
  • DE-A-40 22 853 describes platinum-graphite support catalysts, the graphite support having a specific particle size distribution in the range from 1 to 600 ⁇ m. When using these catalysts, the selectivity of the formation of hydroxylamine in the hydrogenation of nitrogen monoxide can be increased. 2
  • the nitrogen monoxide produced by ammonia combustion contains other NO x compounds, such as N0 2 and N0, as well as numerous other impurities in the ppm range, the most important of which are H 2 S, C0 2 , CO, CH and other hydrocarbons.
  • DE-A-15 42 628 already describes a process for the selective removal of nitrogen dioxide and / or molecular oxygen by catalytic reduction with reducing gases, catalysts being used which contain silver and optionally manganese in the form of their oxidic compounds as active components.
  • this process is too expensive in practice because it requires an additional hydrogenation step and an additional catalyst.
  • the N0 2 removal is insufficient and there is an increase in nitrous oxide.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing an improved process for the preparation of hydroxylammonium salts by reduction of NO with hydrogen, which results in higher selectivities and space-time yields with simple technical implementation.
  • the catalyst should have a longer service life.
  • the purity of the nitrogen monoxide used influences the parameters mentioned and that the nitrogen monoxide can be cleaned in a simple manner by treatment with porous oxides based on silicon or aluminum or with activated carbon so that this object is achieved.
  • the present invention therefore relates to a process for the preparation of hydroxylammonium salts by catalytic reduction of nitrogen monoxide with hydrogen in the presence of an acid and a hydrogenation catalyst, which is characterized in that the nitrogen monoxide is purified prior to the catalytic reduction for cleaning at least one treatment with porous oxides on silicon - And / or aluminum base or with activated carbon.
  • silicon dioxide such as silica gel
  • molecular sieves can be used as porous oxides.
  • Molecular sieves are known - natural or synthetic zeolites, ie alkali or 3
  • M represents an alkali or alkaline earth metal
  • n denotes the valence of the cation
  • x > 2.
  • the pore diameter of the molecular sieves is often given in ⁇ , i.e. H. a 3A molecular sieve has a pore size of 3 ⁇ (0.3 nm).
  • Molecular sieves 5A and in particular molecular sieves 4A are preferred according to the invention.
  • the oxides in particular the molecular sieves, are preferably used in a water-poor or essentially water-free state.
  • the nitrogen monoxide it has proven particularly expedient to dry the nitrogen monoxide before cleaning.
  • Common materials can be used for this.
  • the nitrogen monoxide is therefore first treated with silica gel for drying (and first cleaning) and then with a molecular sieve for further cleaning.
  • Both drying and cleaning can be carried out in one or more stages and with one or more drying or cleaning agents.
  • drying and cleaning are carried out in conventional devices, but it has proven expedient to carry out drying and cleaning in appropriately dimensioned towers.
  • the towers for cleaning are generally regenerated by baking after about 8 to 12 hours of operation.
  • the drying towers are baked out after about 300 to 400 operating hours.
  • the temperature and pressure used for cleaning and drying the nitrogen monoxide can be varied within a wide range. In general, drying and / or cleaning is carried out at a temperature in the range of 4
  • the hydrogenation following the cleaning stage is carried out in a manner known per se.
  • Hydrogen and nitrogen monoxide are preferably reacted in a molar ratio which is in the range from 1.5: 1 to 6: 1. Particularly good results are obtained if a molar ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen monoxide of 3.5: 1 to 5: 1 is maintained in the reaction zone.
  • the catalysts normally used for this purpose are used as hydrogenation catalysts.
  • Platinum-graphite supported catalysts, as described in DE-A-40 22 853, are preferably used.
  • the catalyst is treated before the hydrogenation in acidic solution, advantageously in the acid in which the hydrogenation is carried out. This leads to activation of the catalyst.
  • the hydrogenation takes place in the presence of an acid, preferably a strong mineral acid, such as nitric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or an aliphatic Ci-Cs-monocarboxylic acid, such as formic, acetic, propionic, butteric and valeric acid, preferably ants - and acetic acid used.
  • Acidic salts such as ammonium bisulfate are also suitable. As a rule, 4 to 6 N aqueous acids are used and care is taken to ensure that the acid concentration does not drop below 0.2 N in the course of the hydrogenation. If necessary, further acid is added.
  • the ratio of acid to catalyst depends largely on the catalyst used. Generally, it is in the range of 1 to 150 g of catalyst per liter of mineral acid. In the case of the above-mentioned platinum catalyst described in DE-A-40 22 853, the ratio is preferably in a range from 1 to 100, in particular 20 to 80, g of catalyst per liter of mineral acid. 5
  • the hydrogenation is generally carried out at a temperature in the range from 30 to 80 ° C., preferably 35 to 60 ° C.
  • the pressure during the hydrogenation is usually chosen in the range from 1 to 30 bar, preferably 1 to 20 bar (absolute).
  • the process according to the invention for the preparation of hydroxylammonium salts provides significantly higher hydroxylammonium selectivities and lower nitrous oxide selectivities.
  • the space-time yield of catalysts which are treated with purified nitrogen monoxide by the process according to the invention can be increased considerably in comparison with the use of untreated nitrogen monoxide.
  • the service life of the catalysts used is also extended. As a result, the catalyst has to be regenerated less frequently, which increases the economics of the process.
  • the catalyst thus prepared was separated from the reaction mixture by filtration through a glass frit and washed with distilled water until the pH of the
  • wash water was no longer in the acidic range.
  • the dried catalyst contained 0.5% by weight of platinum.
  • the catalyst was tested until the hydrogen amine synthesis changed from batch to batch by less than 0.5% (formation phase). This process required a catalyst runtime of 20 batches. Non-purified NO was then used in the 21st batch, and purified NO in the 22nd batch as in the batches before. The liquid phase was analyzed in each case. The selectivities achieved in these batches are shown in Table 1.
  • Example la 3.6 g of the catalyst prepared in Example la) were suspended in 120 ml of 4.3 N sulfuric acid and at 40 ° C. 7.75 l of a mixture of 35% by volume of nitrogen monoxide were stirred per hour with vigorous stirring (3500 rpm), which was previously passed through a drying tower filled with 800 ml of silica gel, and 65% by volume of hydrogen were introduced. After 4
  • the catalyst was separated for hours and the liquid phase was analyzed. Then the separated catalyst 120 ml of 4.3 N sulfuric acid were added and the reaction was continued. This process was repeated every four hours. The reaction was stopped after the selectivity to dinitrogen monoxide formed exceeded the upper limit of 5%.
  • the test results are shown in Table 2.
  • Example la 3.6 g of the catalyst prepared in Example la) were suspended in 120 ml of 4.3 N sulfuric acid and at 40 ° C. 7.75 l of a mixture of 35% by volume of nitrogen monoxide were stirred per hour with vigorous stirring (3500 rpm), which was previously passed over a drying tower filled with 800 ml silica gel and then over a cleaning tower filled with 1200 ml molecular sieve 4 A (Carl Roth GmbH, Düsseldorf), and 65% by volume hydrogen were introduced. After 4 hours, the catalyst was separated off and the liquid phase was analyzed. The separated catalyst was then mixed with 120 ml of 4.3 N sulfuric acid and the reaction was continued. This process was repeated every four hours. The reaction was stopped after 50 batches. The selectivity to nitrous oxide was 0.41% at this point. The results obtained are shown in Table 2.
  • the table shows that the catalyst, which with NO, which was previously only passed through a drying tower, has a shorter service life with comparable hydroxylamine selectivities and space-time yields. This makes it clear that molecular sieve also removes impurities from the NO, which lead to accelerated aging of the catalyst.
  • the cleaning effect is in 8 of Table 3 the content of impurities in unpurified and in differently cleaned NO (drying tower with silica gel or molecular sieve 4A).
