- PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF ACRYLIC ACID PROCESS FOR THE SELECTIVE OXIDATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE, CATALYST FOR THE SELECTIVE OXIDATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING
- the present invention relates to chemical industry, specifically to a process for producing acrylic acid by the partial oxidation of propane, using a step of selective oxidation of carbon monoxide in the process of recirculating unreacted propane and/or propylene, and to a catalyst for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide, and to a process for producing thereof.
- Acrylic acid is used, particularly, as a monomer in the production of polymers, including polyester resins.
- One of the industrially applicable processes is a process for producing acrylic acid by the heterogeneous catalytic partial direct oxidation of propane, according to which:
- Gaseous streams at least one of which comprises propane, oxygen and water, are introduced into a first reaction zone.
- a gas containing carbon monoxide is generated as a by-product in the steps of oxidizing hydrocarbon feedstock during the industrial production of acrylic acid.
- the presence of carbon monoxide in the recirculation gas is highly disadvantageous as it contributes to excessive dilution of the reaction medium and, consequently, to decreasing efficiency of the acrylic acid production.
- the presence of carbon monoxide in the reaction mixture may result in decrease of catalyst activity. Accumulation of carbon monoxide may also promote formation of an explosive mixture in an oxidation reactor. As a consequence, purification of the recirculation gas from carbon monoxide contained therein is of utmost importance.
- Such separation of propane and propylene may be carried out, for example, by absorption followed by desorption in a high-boiling, hydrophobic organic solvent.
- a disadvantageous feature of the disclosed process is that all compounds having a boiling point lower than the boiling point of propane and propylene are removed from the recirculation stream. Oxygen, nitrogen, water, carbon dioxide, which function as diluents in the oxidation process, relate to such compounds.
- Another option of removing undesired carbon monoxide from the recirculation gas is oxidation thereof to carbon dioxide, which is then removed by adsorption, if required. It is crucial to avoid the oxidation of propane and/or more reactive propylene during said oxidation process.
- Patent EP0495504 Bl (09.04.1997) teaches the use of the oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide in the presence of a catalyst comprising a noble metal (platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium), copper, cobalt, nickel, magnesium, iron, and alloys or oxides thereof supported on an inorganic carrier for the production of methacrylic acid.
- a catalyst comprising a noble metal (platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium), copper, cobalt, nickel, magnesium, iron, and alloys or oxides thereof supported on an inorganic carrier for the production of methacrylic acid.
- the inventors found that the low temperature of the oxidation of carbon monoxide does not lead to the oxidation of isobutane, although the invention is silent on the oxidation of more reactive alkenes and on a possibility of carrying out the process in the presence of water vapor.
- Patent application US20130131380 Al (23.05.2015) teaches oxidizing of carbon monoxide in a fluidized bed reactor in the presence of a catalyst based on noble metals.
- a recirculation gas stream may comprise up to 20 mol% of water, 50 mol% of propane, and a small amount of propylene and acrolein (less than 1 mol% of each).
- the use of fluidized bed reactors complicates the process equipment and sets certain requirements to abrasion strength of the catalyst.
- An actual technical problem is to develop an industrially applicable, efficient and simple process for producing acrylic acid by the oxidation of propane, in which process a recirculation mode is provided.
- the recirculating of a gas stream is difficult, since the stream comprises, in addition to unreacted propane and propylene, other oxidation products, including by-produced carbon monoxide, the presence of which in the recirculation gas stream is extremely unwanted.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing acrylic acid by the oxidation of propane, comprising a recirculation step of a gas stream comprising such compounds as propane and propylene, where preliminary removal of carbon monoxide by oxidation thereof is provided.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a process for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide, which is generated as a by-product during the production of acrylic acid by the oxidation of propane, to carbon dioxide by means of a catalyst for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide.
- a technical result of the present invention is to increase the productivity of the process for producing acrylic acid, reduce the production cost, and improve safety of said process. Also, the technical result consists in carrying out a process for the oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide in a recirculation gas stream at a high conversion rate and selectivity for carbon dioxide, and in enhancement of stability of the catalyst for the oxidation of carbon monoxide in the presence of water vapor.
- the present invention includes the following aspects set forth below.
- the invention relates to a catalyst for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide in the presence of a gas mixture comprising propylene, water vapor and propane, the catalyst comprising particles of a platinum group metal supported on a surface of a porous carrier comprising a y-AhCb phase and a boehmite phase.
- the invention relates to a catalyst for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide, wherein particles of a platinum group metal are applied to the outer surface of a porous carrier.

- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the gas mixture comprises propylene in an amount of from 1 to 3 vol.% and water vapor in an amount of from 20 to 45 vol.%.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the platinum group metal is selected from: rhodium, ruthenium, platinum, and palladium, and combinations thereof.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the platinum group metal is palladium, the palladium content is from 0.5 to 3.0% by weight, preferably from 1.5 to 2.8% by weight, even more preferably from 2.0 to 2.4% by weight.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the thickness of a palladium layer applied to a surface of the porous carrier is from 10 to 250 ⁇ , preferably from 50 to 150 ⁇ .
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the porous carrier is granules having a shape selected from spherical, cylindrical, annular, and combinations thereof.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein a content of the boehmite phase is up to 10% by weight, preferably from 0.5 to 7.0% by weight, more preferably from 1.5 to 5.0% by weight.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the specific surface area of the catalyst is from 240 to 270 m 2 /g.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the catalyst pore volume is from 0.7 to 0.8 c Vg.
- the invention relates to a catalyst, wherein the content of a catalyst micropores, namely pores having a size of less than 2 nm, is from 1 to 5%, preferably 1 .5%.

- Fig. 2 shows an X-ray diffraction pattern of a catalyst comprising a boehmite phase between 1.5 and 5% by weight obtained in Example 1.
- Fig. 3 shows an X-ray diffraction pattern of a catalyst comprising a boehmite phase greater than 10% by weight obtained in Example 2.
- Fig. 4 shows an X-ray diffraction pattern of a catalyst comprising no boehrnite phase obtained in Example 3.
- Fig. 5 shows a cross-section of a structure of a catalyst in a form of granules.
- a catalyst is required that has high selectivity to carbon monoxide and that is simultaneously characterized by high activity and stability at high temperatures in the presence of water vapor.
- a catalyst comprising, as an active component, particles of platinum group metals applied in the form of a thin layer to the outer surface of a porous carrier, which comprises ⁇ - ⁇ 1 2 0 3 and an additional phase (boehrnite), has excellent selectivity and enhanced stability at high temperatures in the presence of water vapor.
- the platinum group metals are selected from rhodium, ruthenium, platinum, and palladium, and combinations thereof. The most preferable metal is palladium.
- the catalyst surface may be divided into an outer surface and an inner surface.
- the outer surface is an "external" surface of the catalyst.
- the inner surface is formed by pore walls, cracks, etc.
- the catalyst has a granular form, such a surface is illustrated as variant II on Fig. 5.
- the localization of the active component on the outer surface of the catalyst prevents the reaction from running in a diffusion region that is characterized by low selectivity due to catalyst heating. If the active component is localized within the catalyst volume, the reaction rate will be determined not by a rate of the oxidation reaction as such, but rather by a rate of the diffusion of the reactant within the catalyst volume. Emergence of diffusion limitations during the localization of the active component within the catalyst volume results in a decrease in performance of the entire process. The propylene diffusion in the pore volume of the catalyst and an increase of a contact time with the catalyst will enhance the probability of the undesired reaction of propylene oxidation.
- a catalyst in which a thickness of a layer of particles of a platinum group metal, particularly, palladium, applied to the outer surface of a porous alumina carrier is from 10 to 250 ⁇ , more preferably from 50 to 150 ⁇ .
- the amount of palladium is from 0.5 to 3.0% by weight, preferably from 1.5 to 2.8% by weight, more preferably from 2 to 2.4% by weight.
- the oxidation of carbon monoxide runs at elevated temperatures in the presence of water vapor, thus creating the need for providing hydrothermal stability of the catalyst.
- a carrier consisting of ⁇ - ⁇ 1 2 0 3 and an additional phase (boehmite), which is a compound having the formula AIO(OH), as the catalyst carrier.
- Boehmite is a phase state of alumina and, first of all, is characterized by orthorhombic symmetry.
- y-AhC is transformed into boehmite by changing reaction conditions to shift the thermodynamic equilibrium to the formation of boehmite.
- the authors of the present invention have surprisingly discovered that the presence of the boehmite phase in the structure of a carrier contributes to a significant increase in stability of the catalyst in the presence of water vapor.
- a phase transition of boehmite to pseudoboehmite, which is hydrated boehmite, may take place as the reaction of oxidation of carbon monoxide in the presence of water vapor runs.
- Application of a platinum group metal, particularly, palladium, on the catalyst surface facilitates stabilization of the boehmite phase due to the reaction of palladium with its hydroxide groups which, in its turn, prevents further hydration of boehmite followed by the formation of pseudoboehmite, and, consequently, contributes to improvement in stability of the catalyst under reaction conditions.
- the content of boehmite in the catalyst carrier is up to 10% by weight.
- the content of boehmite in the catalyst carrier is from 0.5 to 7% by weight, more preferably from 1.5 to 5% by weight.
- one of the advantages of the catalyst according to this invention is the enhanced hydrothermal stability in the presence of water vapor.
- the enhanced hydrothermal stability facilitates retention of the surface area, porosity, and pore size of the catalyst when the latter is contacted with water vapor.
- the catalyst according to the invention is characterized by a specific surface area of from 220 to 280 m 2 /g, preferably from 240 to 270 m 2 /g.
- the pore volume of the carrier in the catalyst is from 0.6 to 0.9 cm 3 /g, preferably from 0.7 to 0.8 cm 3 /g.
- the pore volume of less than about 0.6 cm 3 /g deteriorates transport properties of pores of the carrier and increases pore-diffusion resistance during the oxidation of carbon monoxide, which results in low conversion of carbon monoxide during its oxidation to carbon dioxide.
- the pore volume of greater than about 0.9 cmVg raises catalyst brittleness considerably, which does not permit using it in flow-type reactors.
- the average pore size of the carrier in the catalyst is from 7 to 14 nm. Slow diffusion of propylene molecules is observed in pores having a size of less than 7 nm, which entraps propylene molecules in the pore space and makes them react with oxygen thus generating oxidation products. It is not desirable to increase the pore size to greater than 14 nm, since in this case the specific surface of the carrier is reduced dramatically, this fact significantly hinders obtaining the catalyst with the required distribution and dispersity of the active agent.
- the preferred content of micropores, namely pores with a size of less than 2 nm, in the catalyst carrier is from 1 to 5% (relative), preferably 1.5% (relative).
- the catalyst according to the present invention used in the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide in the presence of a gas mixture comprising from 2 to 4 vol.% of carbon monoxide, from 1 to 3 vol.% of propylene, from 20 to 45 vol.% of water vapor, the remaining part being unreacted gases, including propane, is characterized by the following parameters:

- the catalyst carrier comprises ⁇ - ⁇ 1 2 0 3 and an additional phase (boehmite) in an amount of from 0.5 to 7.0% by weight, more preferably from 1.5 to 5.0% by weight;
- the specific surface area of the catalyst is from 220 to 280 m 2 /g, preferably from 240 to 270 m 2 /g;
- the pore volume of the catalyst carrier is from 0.6 to 0.9 cmVg, preferably from 0.7 to 0.8 cm 3 /g;
- the average pore size of the catalyst carrier is from 7 to 14 nm
- the content of micropores, namely pores with a size of less than 2 nm, in the catalyst carrier is from 1 to 5% (relative), preferably 1.5 relative %.
- high efficiency of the catalyst which is determined by its stability in the presence of water vapor at elevated temperatures and selectivity of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, is achieved due to the combination of the aforementioned features, more precisely: - provision of an alumina layer having the desired phase state (boehmite) on the surface of the catalyst carrier;
- the catalyst disclosed in the present invention may be obtained by a process comprising the steps of:
- a catalyst carrier comprising an aluminum gamma oxide and up 10% of a boehmite phase
- the step of providing a catalyst carrier comprises the following substeps:
- the boehmite phase is formed within the catalyst carrier in steps 2 and 3.
- a compound selected from the group consisting of potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, and other alkaline agents may be used as the basic precipitant that ensures the formation of an alkaline medium.
- Use of sodium carbonate is preferred.
- Sodium carbonate utilized as the basic precipitant allows generating a buffer solution, which ensures the formation of an alkaline medium having constant pH «9- l l, preferably 10, which, in its turn, permits avoiding the need for controlling pH within the entire process of preparation of the catalyst.
- a medium having pH «9- l l is necessary for the formation of negatively-charged functional groups on the surface of the catalyst carrier, the presence of which contributes to better adsorption of anions of platinum group metals from the solution.
- a palladium-containing precursor which may be represented by compounds selected from H 2 PdCl 6 , [Pd(NH3) 2 Cl 2 ], Pd(NC>3) 2 , preferably H 2 PdCl 4) is used as a precursor comprising a platinum group metal.
- the palladium-containing precursor is added in doses within a period of time of from 10 to 30 min at a temperature of from 70 to 80°C. After dosing the palladium-containing precursor, the catalyst suspension is maintained for a period of time of from 20 to 60 min at a temperature of from 70 to 100°C.
- a reducing agent which is a solution of a weak organic acid salt and a strong base, for example, sodium formate, ammonium acetate, ammonium formate, ammonium oxalate, is added to the suspension so as to obtain disperse particles of palladium having a certain size (1 -3 nm) on the catalyst surface. It is preferable to use sodium formate that is free of nitrogen, which latter affects adversely the catalyst activity.
- the catalyst After cooling the solution to room temperature, the catalyst is recovered by any prior art method, for example, centrifugation, filtration, decantation, etc.
- the catalyst is purified from chloride ions, the presence of which within the catalyst reduces oxygen adsorption on its surface, which, in its turn, decreases the catalyst activity. Completeness of removal of chloride ions is controlled by a qualitative reaction between the washing solution and silver nitrate.
- the resulting catalyst is subjected to drying at temperatures of from 40 to 150°C at the atmospheric pressure and/or at a pressure that is considerably lower than the atmospheric pressure, for example, drying by vacuum at 100-150°C.
- the reduction of the active component to the metallic condition on the surface of the catalyst is performed in a hydrogen stream in a tube furnace within a period of time from 30 to 60 minutes at a temperature of from 100 to 200°C, preferably, from 120 to 180°C, more preferably, from 140 to 160°C.
- the reduced catalyst is cooled in a stream of an inert gas selected from argon, nitrogen or helium. Helium is prefened, because no processes of formation of inactive palladium-containing surface structures occur in its atmosphere.
- the molar ratio of Pd:basic Na 2 C0 3 :HCOONa is maintained within the range of l :(10-2):(4-l), most preferably 1 :4: 1.5, during the preparation of the catalyst.
- Another subject matter of the present invention is a process for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide in the presence of a gas mixture comprising propane, propylene, water vapor, using the above-defined catalyst.
- the gas mixture comprises from 2 to 4 vol.% of carbon monoxide, from 1 to 3 vol.% of propylene, from 20 to 45 vol.% of water vapor, with unreacted gases, including propane, being the rest.
- the oxidation of carbon monoxide is performed using a tube reactor, in tubes of which a static bed of catalyst is loaded, for the purpose of efficiently withdrawing a large amount of heat generated by the gas-phase catalytic oxidation reaction.
- a tube reactor with a tube diameter of between 10 and 60 mm, preferably between 20 and 50 mm. If tubes with a diameter of greater than 50 mm are used, local overheating of the catalyst bed takes place due to inefficient heat withdrawal.
- tubes with a diameter of less than 20 mm are used, on one hand, technical obstacles associated with loading and unloading of the catalyst will occur, on the other hand, hydrodynamic resistance of the catalyst bed in respect to a stream of a feedstock will increase, which fact, in turn, will lead to the presence of a pressure gradient over the length of the tube, this is undesirable for the process of a direct oxidation of a propane to an acrylic acid.
- reactor tubes are arranged vertically, and the reaction mass is fed from top to bottom.
- Solutions of monohydric or dihydric alcohols, water, and silicone oils may be used as a heat-transfer agent circulating in the reactor.
- the catalyst is loaded into the reactor in beds alternating with beds of an inert material so that the volume of an inert material bed is by 1.1 -2 times larger than that of a catalyst bed.
- Glass, quartz and other heat-resistant materials that do not decrease indices of the target reaction may be utilized as the inert material.
- a catalyst in the form of granules having a shape selected from spherical, cylindrical, annular, and combinations thereof may be used to carry out the reaction of selective oxidation of carbon monoxide.
- the temperature of the CO selective oxidation reaction according to the invention is from 60 to 160°C, preferably from 80 to 140°C, more preferably from 80 to 120°C. It is not reasonable to carry out the reaction at a temperature of less than 60°C due to low conversion of carbon monoxide, and at a temperature of greater than 160°C due to high conversion of propylene.
- the reasonable excess pressure in the reactor is between 0.1 and 0.5 bar, preferably between 0.1 and 0.3 bar.
- the contact time during the reaction is from 0.5 to 10 sec, preferably from 1 to 3 sec. It is not feasible to allow the reaction run for a longer contact time, since large load of the catalyst is required. In the event of a shorter contact time, the catalyst bed heats up to over 160°C, which is favorable for undesired oxidation reactions of propylene and propane.
- a subject matter of the present invention is a process for producing acrylic acid, in which recirculation of a gas stream comprising valuable unreacted components, such as propylene and propane, is provided, said recirculation comprising a step of the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, which process comprises:
- said gas stream prior to introduction of the feed gas stream to a propane oxidation reactor, said gas stream is supplied to a reactor, in which a catalyst for the selective oxidation of propylene to acrolein is present.
- molecular oxygen is used, which may be added to the reaction gas mixture, for example, in pure form or in a mixture with gases, advantageously inert ones.

- water vapor is used that contributes to absorption of reaction heat and decrease in a temperature gradient along the catalyst bed.
- the heat capacity of water permits compensating the temperature of reactor hot spots
- the dilution with water vapor decreases the partial pressure of the starting product and the end product.
- use of water vapor is useful for extending a lifetime of the catalyst for the oxidation of propane and reducing its coke deposition.
- carrying out the process in the presence of water vapor provides safety of the entire process, because the composition of the gas mixture is outside the explosive range in this instance.
- the content of water vapor according to the invention may be from 20 to 45 vol.%, preferably from 20 to 35 vol.%, more preferably from 20 to 30 vol.%.
- an embodiment of the process which achieves the propane conversion of between 5 mol.% and 30 mol.%, preferably between 20 and 25 mol%, is advantageous. This is associated with the circumstance that the remaining amount of unreacted propane in a subsequent, at least one oxidation zone essentially acts as a gaseous inert diluent and may later be returned to the oxidation zone without any loss.
- the aforementioned propane conversion requires, predominantly, heterogeneous catalyzed oxidation of propane at an operating pressure of from 0.5 to 5 bar, preferably from 1 to 3 bar.
- the oxidation of propane so as to obtain acrylic acid is performed at a temperature of from 320 to 420°C, preferably from 350 to 390°C, in a fixed bed reactor. Consumption of the mixture through catalysts is from 1.6 to 2.2 m /hour, preferably from 1.8 to 2.2 m 3 /hour.
- propane may be oxidized not in a single reactor, but in two or more reactors connected in series or in parallel.
- the gas-phase catalytic oxidation is preferably carried out in a tube reactor.
- Performing oxidation processes in tube reactors allows adjusting a reaction temperature by efficient withdrawal of a considerable amount of heat releasing during a gas- phase catalytic oxidation reaction, in which a substance to be oxidized is contacted with molecular oxygen in the presence of a solid catalyst.
- Such a process precludes the catalyst from destruction caused by local overheating of a catalyst bed (formation of hot spots).
- Heat generated by the oxidation reaction running on the catalyst is conveyed to a boiling heat-transfer agent through a wall of the reactor tube, which is required to maintain uniform temperature within the catalyst bed.
- Heat-transfer agent vapor is supplied to a water-cooled reflux condenser via a connecting pipe.
- the heat-transfer agent vapor is condensed in the reflux condenser and returns to the reactor by gravity.
- a nitrogen blanket with continuous supply of nitrogen through an adjustable rotameter is created in a top part of the reflux condenser.
- the nitrogen blanket pressure and, correspondingly, the heat-transfer agent vapor pressure are adjusted by a pressure controller. Therefore, the boiling temperature of the heat-transfer agent is adjusted by setting the pressure automatically.
- thermocouples For the avoidance of a temperature gradient within the heat-transfer agent, a condensed heat-transfer agent supply line is heated electrically to ensure heat-transfer agent boiling. Isothermality of the liquid bed of the heat-transfer agent is controlled by thermocouples.
- liquid thermostatic media are used as a heat-transfer agent. It is preferable to utilize melts of salts, such as potassium nitrate, potassium nitrite, sodium nitrite and/or sodium nitrate, or fusible metals, along with diphenyl mixtures, for example, consisting of a mixture of diphenyl and diphenyl ether (DOWTHERM).
- salts such as potassium nitrate, potassium nitrite, sodium nitrite and/or sodium nitrate, or fusible metals
- diphenyl mixtures for example, consisting of a mixture of diphenyl and diphenyl ether (DOWTHERM).

- the process according to the invention becomes especially important when it is effected in a recirculation mode.
- the target product is separated from the gas mixture escaping the propane oxidation reaction zone, while unreacted propane remaining in this gas mixture, conventionally together with unreacted propylene contained therein, are recirculated to an oxidation step, with by-produced carbon monoxide being preliminarily removed therefrom in accordance with the process for the selective oxidation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide described in the present invention.
