Problems solved by technology

However, this method has strong limitations and is only suitable for hydrogenation catalytic systems where water inhibits the activity of the catalyst. Causes catalyst deactivation, especially due to high boiler attachment, has little effect
[0008] In the past technology involving catalyst regeneration, the use of oxygen or air oxidation at high temperature is the most commonly used method. The high operating temperature of this method is generally above 300°C, which can easily cause metal sintering on the surface of the catalyst, which will accelerate the deactivation of the catalyst.
Therefore, the traditional high-temperature oxidation method for removing carbon deposits is not suitable for most fine chemicals and partial hydrogenation catalyst regeneration.
However, the currently reported ruthenium catalyst regeneration method has potential safety hazards in operation, and cannot deal with high boilers on the surface of the catalyst, which has the disadvantages of applicable limitations and insufficient effect.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for regenerating a ruthenium hydrogenation catalyst. The method comprises the following steps: (a) inactivated load ruthenium hydrogenation catalyst is ultrasonically cleaned in ultrasonic equipment under the protection of inert gas in presence of a solvent; (b) the catalyst treated in the step (a) is oxidized and regenerated in liquid phase in presence of an oxidant; (c) the catalyst treated in the step (b) is dried and reduced. The method for regenerating the ruthenium hydrogenation catalyst can effectively remove high-boiling organic matters attached on the surface of the catalyst, can supplement load active components lost in the catalyst, can effectively recover the activity and selectivity of the catalyst, can prolong the service life of the catalyst, and can reduce the production cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for regenerating a ruthenium hydrogenation catalyst, in particular to a method for prolonging the service life of the ruthenium hydrogenation catalyst through regeneration operation. Background technique [0002] Hydrogenation reaction is one of the cores of today's chemical industry, and almost all hydrogenation processes require the use of catalysts. For catalysts, there is a certain service life. During the normal operation of the catalyst, it can be divided into induction period, stable period and deactivation period according to the time. Catalyst deactivation does not mean that the activity of the catalyst is completely lost, but that the activity and selectivity of the catalyst gradually decrease compared to the stable period. [0003] Catalyst deactivation is a rather complex physical and chemical process. Generally, deactivation can be divided into the following two situations: one is irreversible deactivat...
