[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, a method for preparing an acid from aldehyde oxidation using a CoMoOx-APO-34 catalyst, the method comprising the following steps:

[0027] S1. Mix a phosphorus source, an aluminum source, a cobalt source, a molybdenum source and a first solution to obtain a first treatment solution, and sequentially perform a first stirring treatment, a first hydrothermal treatment, a first filtration treatment, a first drying treatment and a first calcination treatment on the first treatment solution under closed conditions to obtain a Co-Mo-P-Al precursor;

[0028] Specifically, in step S1, the phosphorus source is phosphoric acid or phosphorous acid, the aluminum source is pseudo-boehmite, aluminum hydroxide, aluminum nitrate, aluminum sulfate or aluminum sol, the cobalt source is cobalt nitrate, cobalt chloride or cobalt sulfate, the molybdenum source is ammonium molybdate, molybdenum nitrate or molybdenum acetylacetonate. Preferably, the phosphorus source is phosphoric acid, the aluminum source is aluminum hydroxide, the cobalt source is cobalt nitrate, the molybdenum source is molybdenum acetylacetonate, the first solution is water, and the mixing ratio of the phosphorus source, the aluminum source, the cobalt source and the molybdenum source is 1:1:0.02:0.02. The temperature of the first hydrothermal treatment is 60°C to 160°C, and the time of the first hydrothermal treatment is 2h to 24h. Preferably, the temperature of the first hydrothermal treatment is 90°C, and the time of the first hydrothermal treatment is 12h.

[0029] S2. Mix the Co-Mo-P-Al precursor, a structure-directing agent, seeds and a second solution to obtain a second treatment solution, and sequentially perform a second stirring treatment, a second hydrothermal treatment, a second filtration treatment, a second drying treatment and a second calcination treatment on the second treatment solution under closed conditions to obtain a CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve;

[0030] Specifically, the second solution is water, the structure-directing agent is tetraethylammonium hydroxide, triethylamine, diethylamine, ethylamine, triethanolamine or ethanolamine. In this embodiment, the structure-directing agent is triethylamine. The mixing ratio of the Co-Mo-P-Al precursor, the structure-directing agent and the second solution is 1:2:1. The temperature of the second hydrothermal treatment is 150°C to 220°C, and the time of the second hydrothermal treatment is 12h to 240h. Preferably, the temperature of the second hydrothermal treatment is 200°C, and the time of the second hydrothermal treatment is 72h.

[0031] It should be noted that the seed crystal is a tiny crystal of the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve, which is obtained by pre-synthesis. By setting the seed crystal, it provides the same crystal structure and pore topology as the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve, ensuring the directional growth of crystals in subsequent reactions, avoiding the generation of impurity phases. And by setting the seed crystal, it can serve as a ready-made crystal nucleus, reducing the nucleation induction period and shortening the acquisition time of the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve.

[0032] S3. Mix the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve with the target solution and place it in a reaction kettle. Stir in the reaction kettle and perform selective oxidation under the premise of the first preset temperature and the first preset reaction conditions. After selective oxidation, perform filtration to obtain the target product.

[0033] Specifically, the target solution is specifically 0.1%wt - 8%wt isononanal, and the target product is isononanoic acid. Preferably, the target solution is specifically 1.5%wt isononanal, the first preset temperature is 40°C - 120°C, and the first preset reaction conditions are O2 conditions of 0.1 Mpa - 3 Mpa. Preferably, the first preset temperature is 70°C and the first preset reaction conditions are O2 conditions of 0.5 Mpa.

[0034] The CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve in this application has a unique self-supporting three-dimensional space. Its large specific surface area and space confinement effect are conducive to improving the dispersion degree of active components, effectively preventing the aggregation of active centers. Thereby, the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve can efficiently catalyze the synthesis of isononanoic acid, inhibit the Bayer-Villeger side reaction, and promote the catalytic conversion of peroxides. At the same time, the peroxide concentration is reduced to less than 0.1%, and at the same time, the conversion rate of isononanal and the selectivity of isononanoic acid are effectively improved.

[0056] Comparative Example 4

[0057] This comparative example provides a method for oxidizing aldehyde to acid using a CoMoOx-APO-34 catalyst, which is different from the method for oxidizing aldehyde to acid using a CoMoOx-APO-34 catalyst provided in Example 1 in that:

[0059] Comparative Example 5

[0060] This comparative example provides a method for oxidizing aldehyde to acid, which is different from the method for oxidizing aldehyde to acid using a CoMoOx-APO-34 catalyst provided in Example 1 in that:

[0061] Prepare an acid catalyst, specifically sulfuric acid, mix isononanal, water with the acid catalyst, and carry out a stirring reaction at a certain temperature, and then carry out separation and purification to obtain isononanoic acid.

[0062] It should be noted that the method of Comparative Example 5 is a commonly used method for preparing isononanoic acid from isononanal in the prior art, and its reaction reagents, reaction steps and reaction conditions are the same as those in the prior art, so they will not be elaborated here.

[0063] The corresponding isononanoic acids were prepared by the methods provided in the above Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-5, and the following items were detected: the conversion rate of isononaldehyde, the selectivity of isononanoic acid, and the concentration of peroxide. For the conversion rate of isononaldehyde, it can be determined according to the ratio of isononaldehyde converted to isononanoic acid in the reaction. For the selectivity of isononanoic acid, in a complex reaction system, there may be multiple parallel or consecutive reaction pathways, resulting in different products. The selectivity of the catalyst reflects the preference degree of the catalyst for a specific reaction pathway, that is, while promoting the overall reaction, it can preferentially promote the reaction to form the target product and inhibit the occurrence of other side reactions. It can be determined by the following formula: (the yield of isononanoic acid / (the amount of isononaldehyde converted / the total amount of isononaldehyde in the feed flowing through the catalyst bed)) * 100%. For the concentration of peroxide, peroxide is an important intermediate in aldehyde oxidation, but also a key factor affecting the safety of the process. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the concentration of peroxide. The specific detection results are shown in Table 1 below:

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] According to the content in Table 1 above, the concentrations of the peroxides corresponding to Examples 1-5 are all below 0.1%, the conversion rate of isononanal is above 99%, and the selectivity of isononanoic acid is above 99%. Among them, Example 1 is the best, with the peroxide concentration being 0.03%, the conversion rate of isononanal being 99.8%, and the selectivity of isononanoic acid being 99.7%. From Examples 2-4, it can be known that the mixing ratios of the phosphorus source, the aluminum source, the cobalt source, and the molybdenum source, as well as the mixing ratios of the Co-Mo-P-Al precursor, the structure-directing agent, and the second solution, will all have a certain impact on the conversion rate of isononanal, the selectivity of isononanoic acid, and the concentration of the peroxide. Moreover, the degree of influence of the mixing ratios of the phosphorus source, the aluminum source, the cobalt source, and the molybdenum source is greater than that of the mixing ratios of the Co-Mo-P-Al precursor, the structure-directing agent, and the second solution. The reason is that the mixing ratios of the phosphorus source, the aluminum source, the cobalt source, and the molybdenum source will directly affect the overall structure of the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve, thereby affecting its activity and catalytic ability. According to Comparative Examples 1-4, when the mixing ratios of the phosphorus source, the aluminum source, the cobalt source, and the molybdenum source, as well as the mixing ratios of the Co-Mo-P-Al precursor, the structure-directing agent, and the second solution, are not within the mixing ratio range of this application, they will have a huge impact on the conversion rate of isononanal, the selectivity of isononanoic acid, and the concentration of the peroxide, resulting in the peroxide concentration being above 0.2%, and both the conversion rate of isononanal and the selectivity of isononanoic acid being below 90%. From Comparative Example 5, it can be seen that when the existing method is used for aldehyde oxidation to acid, the changes in the conversion rate of isononanal, the selectivity of isononanoic acid, and the concentration of the peroxide are the most obvious. Therefore, it can be known that the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve in this application has a unique self-supporting three-dimensional space, and its large specific surface area and space confinement effect are conducive to improving the dispersion degree of the active components, effectively preventing the aggregation of active centers, so that the CoMoOx-APO-34 molecular sieve can efficiently catalyze the synthesis of isononanoic acid, inhibit the Bayer-Villeger side reaction, and promote the catalytic conversion of the peroxide, while reducing the peroxide concentration to below 0.1%, and at the same time effectively improving the conversion rate of isononanal and the selectivity of isononanoic acid.

[0067] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
