The invention provides a mercuric
chloride low-mercury catalyst and a preparation method thereof. The catalyst adopts
active carbon as a carrier to adsorb mercuric
chloride, and the formula of the catalyst comprises 8.0 to 10.0 percent of mercuric
chloride, 8 to 13 percent of
rare earth chloride assistant A, 5 to 25 percent of
alkaline earth metal chloride assistant B, 10 to 20 percent of assistant C, and the balance of
active carbon. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, soaking the
active carbon in
hydrochloric acid solution at low temperature for standby; simultaneously dissolving the mercuric chloride, the assistant A, the assistant B and the assistant C together, and soaking the active
carton in the solution; performing low-temperature pre-
drying on an
intermediate product; continuously
drying the catalyst; and finally pumping a product at vacuum into a storage
silo, packaging and leaving factory. The catalyst can reduce
resource consumption and the pressure of treating
mercury pollution; simultaneously the production cost is reduced, the poisoning resistance, reduction resistance and loss resistance are greatly improved, the catalytic performance of the catalyst is fully guaranteed, the using time can be prolonged and the using consumption can be reduced; and the catalyst is suitable for
polyvinyl chloride manufacturers.
