Preparation method for improving stability of cu-beta zeolite catalyst for preparing caprolactam from caprolactone, and use thereof

The present invention belongs to the technical field of petrochemical catalysis, and relates to a preparation method for improving the stability of a Cu-Beta zeolite catalyst for preparing caprolactam from caprolactone, and the use thereof. In the present invention, a cavity-modified dealuminated Beta zeolite is used as a carrier, and copper is loaded in pore channels of the zeolite carrier by means of an improved ammonia distillation method. The cavity modification refers to subjecting the dealuminated Beta zeolite carrier to a desiliconization technique controlled by the use of a weak organic base so as to enlarge silanol nests generated by dealumination of the dealuminated Beta zeolite carrier, thereby better accommodating and stabilizing the nano and sub-nano copper particles. The core of the improved ammonia distillation method involves impregnating a zeolite carrier with an equal volume of a copper-ammonia complex solution, such that the copper-ammonia complex mainly undergoes, during ammonia distillation, a reaction of depositing copper hydroxide in zeolite pore channels, thereby improving the sintering resistance. The Cu-Beta catalyst prepared using the method provided by the present invention exhibits high activity, selectivity and stability when applied to the reaction of caprolactam prepared from caprolactone via gas-solid phase hydroamination.

A method for preparing hierarchical porous molecular sieves by dynamic regulation

ActiveCN117902590BHydrocarbon by isomerisationAluminosilicate zeolite type ZSM-12Molecular sievePtru catalyst
This invention discloses a kinetically controlled method for preparing hierarchical porous molecular sieves, belonging to the field of catalyst preparation technology. It employs a two-step crystallization method: first, nucleation occurs at low and ultra-low H2O / SiO2 molar ratios; then, after the low-temperature phase, water is added, followed by rapid growth at high temperature and high H2O / SiO2 molar ratios. The solid-phase and liquid-phase crystallization mechanisms in the synthesis system work in succession to prepare hierarchical molecular sieves. This invention, without adding any mesoporous pore-forming agents, only modulates the crystallization temperature and the H2O / SiO2 molar ratio of the synthesis system to kinetically control the crystallization mechanism, resulting in molecular sieves with higher catalytic performance than those obtained using traditional methods. Furthermore, it overcomes the drawbacks of traditional hierarchical porous molecular sieve preparation processes, such as high cost, high calcination energy consumption, poor mesopore connectivity, and severe contamination from pore-forming agents.
