Definitions
- This invention relates to the ion exchange of zeolite Y and provides a process for preparing zeolites with high polyvalent metal content but extremely low alkali metal content.
- the process involves ion exchange of zeolite NaY to a potassium enriched form of the zeolite.
- a subsequent ion exchange with a solution containing one or more polyvalent metals provides the substituted zeolite Y with the extremely low alkali metal content.
- Zeolite Y (a crystalline aluminosilicate of a particular composition and structure) contains a signi ⁇ ficant amount of sodium. Many applications require the removal of said sodium with the substitution of polyvalent metal ions. Zeolite Y has a structure that renders the removal of virtually all the sodium from the zeolite very difficult. Sherry [J. Phys . Chem. 72., 12, 4086-4094 (1968) and J. Colloid & Interface Science 2 ., 2 , 288-292 (1968)] developed isotherms that showed that Ca +2 and La +3 exchange for sodium in zeolite NaY in excess of 70% substitution was not possible. Sherry and Schwartz (U.S.
- Patent 3,677,698 describe a low temperature-high temperature ion exchange process that provides metal exchanged zeolite that has a low level of its original metal, sodium.
- the low- temperature exchange is carried out at a temperature of 50 to 215°F while the high temperature exchange is carried out at 300 to 600°F.
- Polyvalent ions such as the rare earths can be used with zeolites of the faujasite type structure.
- the resulting original metal contents are between 0.5 and 1% Na 2 0.
- zeolite Y with high polyvalent ion content and very low alkali metal content can be prepared by a process that includes an initial potassium ion exchange followed by an exchange with a solution containing polyvalent metal ion.
- the starting zeolite NaY which contains sodium (usually 11% or more as Na 2 0) is contacted with a potassium salt solution under conditions that provide that a substantial proportion of the zeolite sodium is replaced by potassium.
- the zeolite Y can now be contacted with a salt solution of a polyvalent metal with nearly complete removal of the alkali metal.
- the ion exchange conditions to achieve this high displacement of alkali metal from the zeolite are quite mild.
- the number of contacts, the concentration of the polyvalent metal salt solution, and the temperature of contact are significantly less than required to prepare substituted zeolite Y by methods that do not use a prelim ⁇ inary potassium exchange such as the method described by Sherry, et al. in U.S. Patent 3,677,698.
- the high poly ⁇ valent metal ion substituted zeolite Y resulting from my process is surprising in view of the Sherry references, as will be demonstrated in the examples.
- the zeolite treated by the process of my invention is a faujasite-type material designated as zeolite Y.
- zeolite Y such materials are prepared by the hydrothermal treatment of sources of Si0 2 , A1 2 0 3 and Na 2 0 as described in numerous U.S. Patents including 3,130,007.
- the zeolites produced by the processes disclosed in this patent are represented by the following formula:
- Zeolite Y with a Si0 2 /Al 2 0 3 ratio of 6 contains about 11% Na 2 0.
- Zeolites with lower Si0 2 /Al 2 0 3 ratios contain more sodium.
- the zeolite is contacted with a potassium salt solution using conditions that produce zeolites wherein at least 90% of the sodium for zeolite Y is replaced with potassium.
- the contacting solution can contain one or more potassium salts of strong acids. These can include among others KCl, K 2 S0 4 , KN0 3 .
- the concentration can be 1 to 10 normal.
- the contact time can be 0.5 to 5 hours.
- the temperature is below boiling, but is usually above room temperature.
- the number of contacts can be varied, but not more than 5 are needed. Usually 1, 2 or 3 contacts are all that are required. After contact or between contacts the zeolite is filtered and washed.
- the zeolite NaY need not be completely converted to the potassium form as only about 90% of the sodium must be removed to allow for an easier exchange to the polyvalent form.
- the level of potassium exchange can be higher.
- the starting zeolite should be contacted with up to 10 moles of potassium ion for each mole of sodium to be exchanged.
- the predominately potassium substituted zeolite Y is now contacted with a solution containing one or more polyvalent metal salts.
- any polyvalent metal can be ion exchanged into the zeolite. These include the poly ⁇ valent metals or metalloids of group lb, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5b, 6b and 7b of the periodic table. Calcium and the rare earths, among others, are often used.
- the polyvalent metal salts are usually those of strong acids such as chlorides, sulfates and nitrates.
- the concentra ⁇ tion of the solution can be 0.1 to 10 normal and is usually considerably less than 10 normal.
- the contact time can vary considerably, but is usually 0.5 to 24 hours.
- the temperature of the exchange is less than 100°C.
- Several contacts can be used, but I prefer 2 or 3 counter-current contacts for efficient use of the incoming ion.
- polyvalent substituted zeolite Y can be prepared with much higher levels of exchange than previously reported.
- NaY zeolite was contacted with various quantities of IN Ca(N0 3 ) 2 solution for six hours at 150°C.
- the ion- exchange contact ratios and residual Ca and Na levels are shown in Table 1.
- Car ⁇ NaY zeolite was prepared by contacting NaY zeolite with 10.5 meq Ca ++ /gm zeolite at 82°C for 2 hrs.
- the CaNaY zeolite had a Ca0/Al 2 0 3 of 0.60.
- CagoNaY zeolite from Example 2 was contacted with various quantities of IN Ca(N0 3 ) 2 solution at 150°C for 6 hours.
- the contact ratios and residual Ca and Na levels are shown in Table 2.
- KY zeolite prepared as described in Example 4 was contacted with various quantities of IN Ca(N0 3 ) 2 solution for 24 hours at 180°F.
- the ion exchange contact ratios and residual Na, K and Ca levels are shown in Table 4. TABLE 4
- KY zeolite prepared as described in Example 4 was contacted with 0.4N LaCl 3 solution for 24 hours at 180°F.
- the contact conditions and residual K and La levels are shown in Table 5.
