Preparation method of cyclohexyl acetate hydrogenation catalyst, prepared hydrogenation catalyst and cyclohexyl acetate hydrogenation method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of a cyclohexyl acetate hydrogenation catalyst, the prepared hydrogenation catalyst and a hydrogenation method of cyclohexyl acetate.
Background
Cyclohexanol is an important solvent and an organic synthesis intermediate, and is widely used in the production processes of paint, pesticide, dye, aviation lubricating oil, grease, wax, stripping, decontamination, spot removal and the like as the solvent. Cyclohexanol can be dehydrogenated to produce cyclohexanone with high selectivity, and can be used for producing caprolactam monomer, adipic acid and other chemicals.
The cyclohexanol production process mainly comprises a phenol hydrogenation method, a cyclohexane oxidation method, a cyclohexene hydration method and the like, wherein the phenol hydrogenation method is used for directly preparing cyclohexanol by hydrogenating phenol, the selectivity and the conversion rate can exceed 99%, but the cyclohexanol production process has the defects of high phenol price and low economic benefit. The cyclohexane oxidation method uses benzene as a raw material, cyclohexane is obtained by hydrogenation, and then cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone are obtained by oxidation. The cyclohexene hydration method was first developed successfully by Asahi Kasei Corp, where benzene was first selectively hydrogenated to produce cyclohexene and a small amount of cyclohexane, and the separated cyclohexene was then subjected to hydration reaction under a molecular sieve catalyst to directly produce cyclohexanone. The product obtained by the method has good quality, less three-waste discharge and safer production device than the oxidation process. The disadvantages are that: the single-pass conversion rate of the cyclohexene hydration reaction is only about 10 percent, the cyclohexene needs a large amount of circulation, and the investment and energy consumption are large.
A brand-new method for producing cyclohexanol is provided by the institute of petrochemical engineering science and technology, and is characterized in that pure cyclohexene or a cyclohexene mixture obtained by selective hydrogenation of benzene and acetic acid are subjected to esterification reaction to obtain cyclohexyl acetate, and then the cyclohexyl acetate is hydrogenated to generate cyclohexanol and ethanol. In the method, the esterification reaction has good adaptability to raw materials, the esterification and hydrogenation steps have high conversion rate and selectivity, and simultaneously, the ethanol is co-produced, so the technical economy is good.
Because the method is innovative, the hydrogenation catalyst for the hydrogenation process of the intermediate product, namely the cyclohexyl acetate, is not reported in documents, and the specific reaction formula is as follows:
the prior literature is commonly provided with other ester hydrogenation catalysts such as dimethyl oxalate, dimethyl adipate, maleate and the like.
Chinese patent CN 101474561A discloses a catalyst for producing glycol by oxalate hydrogenation, the active components of the catalyst comprise copper, copper oxide and mixture thereof, the auxiliary agent is one of zinc, manganese, barium, nickel, chromium and iron, the carrier is alumina, the catalyst is prepared by one-step coprecipitation method, the precipitate is washed, dried and roasted, then graphite powder is added for tabletting and molding, and the catalyst is applied to oxalate hydrogenation process, and the catalyst has higher conversion rate but about 85% selectivity.
Chinese patent CN 101138726A discloses a copper catalyst for industrial production of hexanediol, which is prepared by a coprecipitation method, the preparation method of the catalyst comprises the steps of preparing aqueous solution from copper nitrate and zinc nitrate, dispersing aluminum hydroxide powder in water to form slurry, mixing the copper-zinc mixed aqueous solution and the slurry containing aluminum hydroxide, and neutralizing the mixture with alkali solution containing sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate until the pH value is 7-8, wherein the obtained catalyst has high activity for preparing 1, 6-hexanediol by hydrogenation of dimethyl adipate.
Chinese patent CN102125843A discloses a method for preparing a catalyst with silicon as a carrier, which comprises using urea as an alkaline precipitant, preparing an aqueous solution from urea and copper nitrate, mixing the aqueous solution with silica sol to obtain a slurry, stirring and heating the slurry in a high-pressure kettle, and generating ammonia water by leaning against a line to obtain a relatively uniform copper oxide precipitate. However, the catalyst prepared by the preparation method has poor application effect in oxalate hydrogenation conversion, and the patent does not consider the problem of improving the reasonable distribution of copper elements on the surface and in the bulk phase of the catalyst.
When the cyclohexyl acetate hydrogenation catalyst is used for catalyzing the cyclohexyl acetate hydrogenation reaction, alumina is used as a carrier, a copper component is used as an active component and an auxiliary agent, the existing hydrogenation catalyst preparation method usually adopts a one-step precipitation method, and a part of the copper component and the alumina are positioned in the catalyst together and cannot contact with reactants to participate in the reaction.

Test examples 1 to 7
The hydrogenation catalysts prepared in examples 1 to 7 were subjected to performance evaluation using a fixed bed reactor. The specific evaluation method is as follows: the catalyst was crushed into 20-40 mesh granules after tabletting, and the reactor loading was 10.0 g. The catalyst was reduced in a reactor before use at 260 c under a hydrogen flow rate of 50 ml/min for 15 hours. The cyclohexyl acetate is fed into a reactor by a metering pump and is contacted with a reduced hydrogenation catalyst to carry out cyclohexyl acetate hydrogenation reaction, one hydrogenation catalyst is selected for each test embodiment to carry out reaction under two different reaction conditions, and the specific evaluation result is shown in table 1.

The hydrogenation catalysts prepared in comparative examples 1 to 2 were evaluated according to the evaluation methods of test examples 1 to 7, and the specific evaluation results are shown in table 1.
As can be seen from the data in Table 1, as the reaction temperature and reaction pressure increased, the conversion of cyclohexyl acetate increased significantly, but the selectivity decreased. The hydrogenation catalyst prepared by the method provided by the invention is superior to the hydrogenation catalyst prepared without using a buffer solution in terms of conversion rate and selectivity and byproduct yield. In addition, taking the cyclohexanone produced by cyclohexanol and used for producing high-purity polymer grade caprolactam as an example, the methyl cyclopentanol in the cyclohexanol pollutes the cyclohexanone, the boiling points and the polarities of the methyl cyclopentanol and the cyclohexanol which is a main product are close, the separation difficulty is high, and the continuous separation cost of the subsequent products is improved.
