Problems solved by technology

Hexagonal mesoporous silicon molecular sieve can better disperse Cu species, the introduction of Mg and Mn stabilizes active Cu species, and the selectivity of ethylene glycol can reach 80-90%, but this process requires 2-5MPa hydrogen pressure
The carrier hydroxyapatite of the catalyst is prepared by precipitation method, and the preparation process is relatively cumbersome
Although the selectivity of the catalyst to ethylene glycol can reach about 95% in the reaction test, this process still requires an external hydrogen pressure of 3MPa
[0004] From the above research background, it can be seen that after introducing one or more additives into the copper catalyst, the ethylene glycol selectivity of the copper-based catalyst and the stability of the catalyst are improved, but the industrialization process must have a high-pressure external The supply of source hydrogen, which not only needs to face the activation of exogenous hydrogen in the reaction process, but also the introduction of exogenous hydrogen will inevitably bring a certain degree of potential danger in transportation and handling

Abstract

The invention provides a method for transforming dimethyl oxalate into ethylene glycol by a one-pot process under a hydrogen-free condition. The method comprises the following steps: (1) preparing a Cu-based catalyst, wherein the Cu-based catalyst comprises a reactive metal Cu and a carrier, a second metallic element is introduced into the Cu-based catalyst, the auxiliary metallic elements refer to alkali metal or / and alkaline-earth metal elements; the reactive metal Cu comprises Cu<+> and Cu0, and oxygen vacancy is enriched on the surface of the Cu-based catalyst; (2) weighing dimethyl oxalate, the Cu-based catalyst and a hydrogen-donor solvent, sequentially adding into a micro high-pressure reactor, filling N2, and reacting under the condition of 180-300 DEG C for 0.5-10 hours, thereby obtaining the ethylene glycol. According to the method disclosed by the invention, alcoholic hydrogen production and dimethyl oxalate hydrogenation reaction can be successfully coupled in the one-stepprocess, supply of exogenous hydrogen is not needed, equipment for performing hydrogenation conversion on the dimethyl oxalate to obtain ethylene glycol in the traditional process and hydrogen transport input can be greatly reduced, and the potential safety hazards in the production process are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of ethylene glycol preparation, in particular to a method for converting dimethyl oxalate into ethylene glycol in one pot without hydrogen. Background technique [0002] Ethylene glycol is an important chemical product and basic organic raw material, widely used in the production of polyester, antifreeze, plasticizer, synthetic fiber, pesticide intermediates, pharmaceutical intermediates and advanced organic solvents and other fields. The demand for ethylene glycol in the world is showing a steady growth trend, so ethylene glycol has broad development prospects and application markets. At present, the production methods of ethylene glycol are mainly divided into two types: petroleum route and non-petroleum route. The petroleum route refers to the preparation of ethylene by cracking naphtha, and then ethylene glycol is produced by oxidative hydrolysis of ethylene, that is, the hydration of ethylene oxide to ethylene g...
