CATALYST BASED ON MOLYBDENUM AND ITS USE IN THE ISOMERIZATION OF N-PARAFFINS
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a catalyst based on molybdenum and its use in the isomerization of n-paraffins. More specifically, the present invention relates to a catalyst based on molybdenum and silicon and its use in the reaction of isomerization of n-paraffins with a number of carbon atoms greater than or equal to 5, preferably between 5 and 40. The use of molybdenum-based catalysts for the isomerization of n-paraffins is known in the literature. In particular, as described in "Proceedings of the 10th International Congress on Catalysis, Budapest, 1992, 955, the catalytic activity of these materials is linked to the formation of molybdenum carbides or oxycarbides which, with respect to the starting oxide , has a larger surface area which ranges from approximately 4 m2 / g (Mo03 to 99.95% purity) at values which can reach approximately 200 m2 / g.
The transition from molybdenum oxide to the catalyst is laborious and can be carried out in various ways, as illustrated in the following. The "Journal of Solid State Chemistry", 59, 1985, 332 and 348, describes tests of molybdenum oxide with a mixture of ammonia / hydrogen at 880 ° C to obtain the corresponding nitride which is then transformed into carbide by treatment with me. pressure / hydrogen at 900 ° C. The carbides obtained with method have a surface area of 140-180 m2 / g. Another method is described in "Journal of
Catalysis ", 106, 1987, 125. According to method, the molybdenum oxide is treated with a methane / hydrogen stream at an increased temperature.In" Journal of Catalysis "112, 1988, 44, the oxide can be impregnated previously with 0.25% by weight of platinum that acts as a carburization catalyst, which takes place at an increased temperature above 700 ° C. The final solids have an area of approximately 200 m2 / g.Alternatively, according to what described in "Journal of Catalysis" 117, 1989, 371, molybdenum oxide can be reduced with hydrogen to the metal phase which is then carburized with CO at 100 ° C. O, the carburization reaction can be carried out using M0O3 vapors in activated carbon that obtain materials with a surface area of 100-200 m2 / g, as described in European patent 396 475. The synthesis of molybdenum oxycarbonate itself has recently been described, starting from M0O3 treated or at a low temperature (350 ° C) in a hydrogen / n-tear stream for 24 hours
("Catalysis Today", 35, 1997, 51). The Applicant has found a new catalytic structure based on molybdenum oxide and silica which can be used as such in the reaction of the n-paraffins without requiring any particular reactions. The present invention therefore relates to a catalyst based on molybdenum and silicon having a surface area in the range of 20 to 400 m2 / g and a molar ratio Mo / Si > 0.2. A further object of the present invention relates to a catalyst based on molybdenum and silicon obtainable with a process comprising: a) dissolving a soluble molybdenum salt in an aqueous solution containing at least one basic compound selected from ammonium hydroxides having the general formula (I): wherein the groups R1.-R4, the same or different, represent aliphatic groups containing from 1 to 7 carbon atoms; b) adding to the solution of step (a) at least one silicon compound capable of hydrolyzing SiO2 in such amounts as to give a Mo / Si molar ratio greater than 0.2 and, optionally, an aliphatic alcohol; c) gelling the mixture thus obtained and calcining the obtained gel in air at a temperature in the range of 500 to 600 ° C. Any salt of molybdenum soluble in water or in a basic environment can be used in the process of preparation of the catalyst of the present invention. Practical examples are halogenated molybdenum derivatives, for example, having the formula M0O2X2 wherein X represents a halogen such as chlorine, bromine or fluorine, or has the formula M0OX4, wherein X represents a chlorine or fluorine atom, molybdic anhydride , olibdic acid and hept amol ibdato of harmonium tetrahydrate.
The molybdenum salt is dissolved in an aqueous solution of the basic compound having the general formula (I). Of these basic products, t-propiopropyl ammonium hydroxide is preferred. When the molybdenum salt has dissolved, the hydroxylic silicon compound, optionally diluted with an alcohol, is added to the solution. Preferred silicon compounds according to the present invention are tetraalkyloxy silicon orthosilicate in which the alkyl group contains from 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as, for example, tetra-ethyl orthosilicate. The alcohol is preferably selected from aliphatic alcohols, in particular monoalkoxide is C2_C6 alkyl. The preparation of the molybdenum-based gelifiable solution, steps (a) and (b), substantially takes place at room temperature, the reaction ingredients being dosed in this respect with the following molar proportions: Mo / Si greater than 0.2; OH / (Si + Mo) greater than 0.1; H20 / (Si + Mo) greater than 5; Alcohol / H20 between 0 and 20.
More specifically, the ingredients are preferably dosed to obtain the following molar proportions: Mo / Si between 1 and 100; OH "/ (Si + Mo) between 0.2 and 5; H20 / (Si + Mo) between 10 and 100; Alcohol / H20 between 0.5 and 2. When the reaction mixture has been prepared, the gelation phase begins. carried out at room temperature or at a temperature in the range of ambient values to 100 ° C. The gelation may require times in the range of a few minutes to several hours (still above 100) and may take place both under agitation and under conditions This leads to the formation of a homogeneous gel which may be transparent or opaque.The supernatant phase formation has never been observed.At the end of the gelation phase, the produced gel was dried at 100 ° C for a few hours and then calcined in air at 500-600 ° C. The catalyst of the present invention appears as a solid having a surface area in the range of 20 to 400 m2 / g, a pore volume in the range of 0.5 to 1 cm3 / g, with distribution centered in the mesoporous region. The invention is useful in the reaction of n-paraffins, especially n-paraffins with a number of carbon atoms greater than or equal to 5, preferably between 5 and 40. A further object of the present invention therefore, it is related to a process for the synthesis of n-paraffins characterized in that the isomer reaction is carried out in the presence of a catalyst obtainable with a process comprising: a) dissolving a soluble molybdenum salt in an aqueous solution containing at least one basic compound selected from ammonium hydroxides having the general formula (I): R? R2R3R4N + OH "(I) Wherein the R? -R4 groups, the same or different, represent aliphatic groups containing 1 to 7 carbon atoms; b) adding to the solution of step (a) at least one silicon compound capable of hydrolyzing SiO2 and, optionally, an aliphatic alcohol;
c) gelling the mixture thus obtained and calcining the obtained gel in air at a temperature in the range of 500 to 600 ° C. The preferred catalyst for the isomerization reaction is the molybdenum-silicon-based catalyst having an area, area in the range of 20 to 400 m / g and a Mo / Si molar ratio
> 0.2. The somerification of n-paraffins can be carried out in any type of reactor. This is preferable, however, to operate with fixed bed or fluid bed reactors, both continuously or intermittently. The isomer reaction is carried out in the presence of hydrogen, at a temperature in the range of 200 to 550 ° C, preferably between 250 and 450 ° C, and at a pressure of hydrogen in the range of atmospheric pressure a 10 MPa, preferably from 2 to 6 MPa.
