Abstract

The invention provides a device for electrooxidation of furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, the device comprises a middle cavity used for being filled with alkali liquor and permeating the alkali liquor outwards through the side wall, the two sides of the middle cavity are respectively provided with an anode structure and a cathode structure, and the anode structure and the cathode structure are both communicated with the middle cavity through a layer of diaphragm; each of the anode structure and the cathode structure comprises a catalyst layer in close contact with the diaphragm, a porous support body in contact with the catalyst layer, and a cavity with a flow channel, a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet. When the device is used for preparing FDCA and furoic acid, reaction is promoted under high alkalinity, side reaction of furfural or 5-hydroxymethylfurfural under the high alkalinity condition is avoided, and the amount of waste salt generated by purification of FDCA and furoic acid is reduced. The invention also provides a method for preparing FDCA and furoic acid by using the device. The method has simple process steps.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of electrochemistry, in particular, to a device and method for electrooxidation of furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Background technique [0002] As a new type of renewable non-fossil resources, biomass is considered as a potential substitute for fossil resources. 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural, or HMF for short, is one of the important representative platform compounds of biomass resources. By oxidizing HMF, 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid, or FDCA for short, can be prepared, and bio-based poly-2,5-furan can be further synthesized. Replacing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with polyethylene terephthalate (PEF) to achieve large-scale production of bio-based degradable plastics. Compared with the chemical oxidation method to prepare FDCA, the electrochemical oxidation of HMF can be carried out at room temperature and pressure. This reaction does not require noble metal catalysts or chemical oxidants, so it is regarded as a ...
