Problems solved by technology

However, on the other hand, the intermediate product during cellulose hydrolysis and hydrogenation is extremely unstable, which is not conducive to the comprehensive optimization of the series reaction and the adjustment of the catalytic system. At the same time, the reaction is carried out in water, and the cost of product separation and solvent recovery is high.

Abstract

The invention provides a two-step method for preparing glycol and 1,2-propylene glycol from cellulose. The method comprises the following steps: (1) with cellulose as a raw material in an alcoholic solvent system, reacting cellulose with alcohol under the action of a first catalyst to produce glycollate and lactate; and (2) adding a second catalyst into a liquid mixture obtained in the step (1) and introducing hydrogen for hydrogenation so as to obtain glycol and 1,2-propylene glycol. According to the invention, through the two-step reactions consisting of esterification in alcohol and hydrogenation, the conversion rate of cellulose can reach 100%; the yield of both glycol and 1,2-propylene glycol can reach 70% or so; and separation cost is lowered, and a novel approach is provided for high-efficiency comprehensive utilization of cellulose.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of cellulose production, in particular to a two-step method for preparing ethylene glycol and 1,2-propanediol from cellulose. Background technique [0002] Biomass is the only renewable source of organic carbon and is ideal as an alternative to petroleum for the production of fuels and chemicals. Therefore, the development of new routes and methods for the conversion of biomass to fuels and chemicals is an important goal for the future development of sustainable energy systems. The main part of biomass is cellulose, so the effective utilization of cellulose has become the focus of research. [0003] Polyols such as ethylene glycol and 1,2-propanediol are important energy liquid fuels and very important raw materials for polyester. The industry mainly uses petroleum routes, that is, ethylene and propylene are hydrated after epoxy to obtain ethylene glycol, 1,2- Propylene glycol [Document 1: He Li, Research Progress i...
