Preparation method and application of aluminum-zinc phosphate molecular sieve catalyst
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of acetylene catalytic conversion, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of an aluminum-zinc phosphate molecular sieve catalyst.
Background
Acetaldehyde is a basic chemical raw material, and the application industries comprise pesticides, medicines, food additives, paints, oil products, preservatives and the like. In recent years, downstream products of acetaldehyde are rapidly developed, market demands of acetaldehyde are strongly pulled, and therefore researches on production process routes of acetaldehyde are more and more focused. The synthesis process route of acetaldehyde mainly comprises an ethylene oxidation method, an ethanol dehydrogenation method, an ethanol oxidation method and an acetylene hydration method. The development of processes for the production of acetaldehyde by the direct oxidation of ethylene in the 50's of the 20 th century has made the direct oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde a more attractive process in developed countries due to the lower cost and ready availability of ethylene as compared to acetylene. Both the ethanol method and the ethylene method exist in China. With the continuous innovation of the technology for producing acetylene by petroleum and natural gas, the optimization of the acetylene production process by the calcium carbide method, the raw material valence difference of acetylene and ethylene is gradually reduced, and the route for producing acetaldehyde by acetylene hydration is more and more concerned. The breakthrough of the large-scale thermal plasma coal-to-acetylene technology further expands the acetylene production capacity. As a country with rich coal resources, China makes it possible for the acetylene hydration method to become an advantageous route of the acetaldehyde production industry in China.
Acetylene hydration reactions can be divided into gas-solid phase catalytic systems and gas-liquid phase catalytic systems according to the difference of reaction systems. Early researchers studied transition metals (e.g., Cu)2+、Cd2+、Hg2+、Ag+、Ru2+And Zn2+). As an active catalyst in acetylene hydration reactions; it was investigated to use mercury salts and acids as catalysts under liquid phase strongly acidic conditions or cadmium phosphate-calcium phosphate or the like catalysts under gas phase conditions, although both methods showed high activity, Hg2+、Cu2+And Ag+Are more likely to be reduced by acetylene to the respective zero-valent metal, resulting in a reduction in catalyst activity, while the catalysts involved are toxic, thereby limiting their use. Therefore, from the aspects of reaction activity, economic factors, environmental factors and the like, the active zinc is an ideal active ingredient for replacing cadmium in the acetylene hydration process.
In recent years, there have been reports of chemical impregnation methods for preparing Zn/NH2MCM-41 load type catalyst, or zinc salt is loaded on treated calcium phosphate by ion exchange method, or CdAPO-5/ZAPO-5 catalyst synthesized by hydrothermal method is used for producing acetaldehyde by acetylene gas phase hydration. The technical proposal disclosed in CN108993576A adopts zinc salt to dip on the modified molecular sieve to prepare the solid-supported zinc-based catalyst for gas phase hydration reaction, and the technical proposal disclosed in CN111185222A discloses methods of plasma post-treatment and the like for the supported zinc-based catalyst, aiming at enhancing the interaction between ZnO and the carrierThe dispersion of active components is promoted, the loss of Zn species is inhibited, and the conversion rate and the selectivity are improved. Recent studies found that the cationic sites are more active than negatively charged groups in acetylene hydration reactions, while researchers characterized the surface acid centers of the catalyst and suggested by XPS analysis that zn (oh) + might be an active compound. Despite the findings obtained by these prior arts, the reaction mechanism at the molecular level is not theoretically studied, limiting the overall understanding of the reaction.
In summary, although the currently studied acetylene gas phase hydration reaction adopts a non-Cd-based or Hg-based catalyst to avoid the problem of environmental safety, the reaction of the transition metal ion catalyst at high temperature has the problems of high energy consumption, poor conversion rate and selectivity and the like, and the frequent regeneration step is required for recovering the catalytic activity of the catalyst due to the carbon deposition inactivation of the catalyst. In order to meet the requirements of industrialization, optimization and improvement of the catalyst are necessary. Therefore, the development of a high-efficiency high-selectivity stable catalyst and the realization of the stable production of acetaldehyde by acetylene gas phase hydration are of great significance.
