Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of catalysts, and in particular relates to a urea hydrolysis catalyst for producing ammonia and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The urea hydrolysis process plays a key role in denitrification systems in industries like steel. Its mechanism of action is that urea hydrolysis generates ammonia, which reacts with nitrogen oxides in flue gas to convert them into harmless ammonia and water, reducing their impact on the atmospheric environment. However, the slow reaction rate and long reaction time of urea hydrolysis hinder its rapid response to unit load changes, hindering its development. Catalysts can accelerate the reaction and offset the shortcomings of conventional hydrolysis.

[0003] However, existing urea hydrolysis catalysts are mostly based on transition metal oxides and their carrier materials. They still show insufficient catalytic performance under the high temperature, high dust and complex gaseous environment of the steel industry. The urea hydrolysis rate is slow, affecting the ammonia yield. In addition, sulfur (SO2), alkali metals (such as K, Na) and dust particles in the exhaust gas can easily cause catalyst poisoning or blockage, shortening the service life. Under long-term operation conditions, the catalyst is also prone to sintering, resulting in a decrease in specific surface area and activity attenuation. Summary of the Invention

The catalyst uses a porous material as a carrier, a transition metal oxide as an active component, and a rare earth metal oxide or an alkali metal oxide as an auxiliary component, thereby significantly improving the catalytic activity, thermal stability, anti-clogging performance, and anti-poisoning ability during urea hydrolysis to produce ammonia.

[0013] In the above scheme, the mass ratio of the carrier to the silane coupling agent is (10-50):1.

[0014] In the above scheme, in step 1), the frequency of ultrasonic treatment is 40 to 60 kHz, the power is 80 to 120 W, and the ultrasonic time is 20 to 40 minutes, so that the silane molecules are grafted onto the surface of the carrier.

[0033] The technical concept of the present invention is:

[0034] The present invention uses a porous material with a high specific surface area as a carrier to provide sufficient active sites and improve high-temperature resistance and dust clogging resistance; uses transition metal oxides as active components to provide excellent urea hydrolysis catalytic activity; and introduces rare earth metal oxides or alkali metal oxides as auxiliary components to enhance electronic effects and resistance to SO2 and alkali metal poisoning. However, under complex operating conditions, the porous carrier is prone to pore clogging due to dust and moisture adsorption, reducing catalytic efficiency. When the traditional impregnation method is used to load the metal oxide, the loaded metal oxide is difficult to fully exert the composite effect, which will further limit the performance of the catalyst. The present invention solves these difficult problems by optimizing the carrier properties and loading process.

[0035] 1) Surface modification of porous carriers: To address the problem that porous materials are easily clogged by dust and moisture in high-temperature and high-humidity environments, the present invention introduces a silane coupling agent (KH-550 or KH-570) during carrier pretreatment for surface modification. The silane molecules form a hydrophobic layer through chemical grafting. On the one hand, the carrier's tendency to adsorb moisture is reduced, while the surface chemical stability is enhanced, reducing the adhesion of dust particles, thereby improving anti-clogging performance. On the other hand, the surface hydrophilicity is reduced, slowing the adsorption rate of the precursor, which is particularly beneficial for the deep penetration of subsequent low-concentration transition metal salt solutions, extending their diffusion time in the pores, while high-concentration transition metal salt solutions can still be quickly deposited on the surface.

[0036] 2) Gradient loading of active components: In order to address the defects of uneven distribution of metal oxides and insufficient loading in deep pores in traditional impregnation methods, the present invention adopts an ultrasound-assisted gradient impregnation method. Through the gradient distribution of active groups to balance the surface activity and internal patency of the catalyst, the modified carrier is immersed in a transition metal salt solution multiple times, and the concentration of the transition metal salt solution is gradually increased. Low concentration deep deposition, medium concentration middle deposition, and high concentration surface deposition are finally formed. A gradient with decreasing concentration from the surface to the center is formed. The gradient law not only increases the loading depth, but also optimizes the distribution of high-activity sites on the surface and the patency of internal pores, reducing the occurrence of blockage. Specifically, the low-concentration solution has a lower diffusion driving force. The precursor molecules preferentially penetrate into the deep pores of the carrier (50-80% of the particle radius) under the action of ultrasound to form a base layer; after the medium-concentration solution partially occupies the pore sites in the base layer, it is further deposited in the middle layer area, and ultrasound drives moderate penetration to form a transition layer; the catalytic activity is enhanced. The high-concentration solution preferentially deposits on the surface of the carrier and shallow pores due to the larger concentration gradient and adsorption rate, forming a high-concentration protective layer. The high surface concentration provides initial high activity, while the low internal concentration keeps the pores open, synergizing with the rare earth components to enhance electron transfer and reduce alkali metal poisoning.

[0037] 3) Uniform loading of auxiliary components: The main function of auxiliary components is to enhance electron transfer in the catalytic reaction and prevent the catalyst from poisoning. A single concentration can be added in batches to achieve uniform coverage of the active layer, without the need for a gradient design. Transition metal oxides (such as TiO2) provide active sites with high oxygen vacancies, while rare earth / alkali metal oxides (such as La2O3) enhance electron transfer and anti-poisoning capabilities. Rare earth metal salt solutions or alkali metal salt solutions are added in multiple batches to avoid surface overload caused by a single addition. This allows the precursor molecules to gradually penetrate deeper into the pores after each addition, achieving uniform loading.

[0038] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0039] The catalyst of the present invention uses a porous material as a carrier, a transition metal oxide as an active component, and a rare earth metal oxide or an alkali metal oxide as an auxiliary component. Through surface modification of the porous carrier, gradient loading of the active component, and uniform loading of the auxiliary component, the clogging problem of the porous material in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment and the defects of uneven distribution of metal oxides and insufficient deep-pore loading in the traditional impregnation method are solved. The catalytic activity, thermal stability, anti-clogging performance, and anti-poisoning ability of the catalyst in urea hydrolysis to produce ammonia are significantly improved.

[0040] The catalyst of the present invention has a urea hydrolysis efficiency of over 95% at 200-400°C, an activity retention rate of over 90% after high-temperature operation at 400-600°C for 2000-5000 hours, and an activity decrease rate of less than 7% and a pore blockage rate of less than 10% after operation at 200-400°C for 1000-2000 hours in a complex environment containing SO2, alkali metals and dust, significantly superior to conventional catalysts.

[0072] Comparative Example 1

[0073] The preparation method of the catalyst for producing ammonia by hydrolysis of urea in this comparative example comprises the following steps:

[0074] 1) Select particle size 0.5mm, specific surface area 220m 2 / g, an average pore size of 7nm, and a porosity of 0.49 as a carrier; the γ-Al2O3 carrier was placed in a muffle furnace and heated to 600°C, and calcined at a constant temperature for 3h to obtain a modified carrier;

[0075] 2) immersing the modified support in a 0.8 mol / L titanium nitrate solution at a volume ratio of 1 g to 0.5 mL of the transition metal salt solution, ultrasonically treating the support for 10 min (frequency 40 kHz, power 100 W), drying the support at 100° C. for 12 h, and calcining the support at 500° C. for 3 h to obtain a TiO2-loaded modified γ-Al2O3 support;

[0076] 3) A 0.3 mol / L lanthanum nitrate solution was added to the TiO2-loaded modified γ-Al2O3 support in a volume-to-mass ratio of 1 mL:1 g. The solution was first ultrasonically treated for 10 min (frequency 40 kHz, power 100 W) and then stirred at 200 rpm for 30 min. The solution was allowed to stand for 12 h, dried at 100°C for 12 h, and then calcined at 500°C for 3 h to obtain a urea hydrolysis catalyst for ammonia production.

[0077] The particle size of the urea hydrolysis catalyst for ammonia production obtained in this comparative example is 0.5 mm, and the specific surface area is 161 m 2 / g, an average pore size of 5.5nm, and a porosity of 0.35. Example 1 optimizes the TiO2 distribution through multi-level gradient deposition. The low-concentration solution, assisted by a silane modifier and ultrasound, penetrates into the deep pores of the particles to form a uniform base layer; medium and high concentrations are sequentially deposited in the middle pores and the surface to form a decreasing gradient. Therefore, Example 1 can ensure uniform pore filling. In this comparative example, a single high-concentration impregnation is used without silane modification. TiO2 is quickly adsorbed on the surface, blocking shallow pores, resulting in low utilization of internal pores. In addition, this comparative example uses a single high-temperature calcination to form large-grain TiO2. Therefore, compared with Example 1, the specific surface area, pore size, and porosity of this comparative example are significantly reduced.

[0078] The urea hydrolysis catalyst for ammonia production obtained in this comparative example has a urea hydrolysis efficiency of 88.3% when operated at 300°C for 1000h in flue gas containing 81.5% N2, 4.4% O2, and 9.8% H2O (all by volume and free of SO2, alkali metals, and dust); an activity retention rate of 78.6% when operated at 400°C for 2000h in flue gas containing 81.5% N2, 4.4% O2, and 9.8% H2O (all by volume and free of SO2, alkali metals, and dust); and an activity retention rate of 78.6% when operated at 400°C for 2000h in flue gas containing 500ppm SO2, 100ppm total alkali metal content of KNa, and 10g / m3 dust. 3In complex flue gas, after running at 300℃ for 1000h, the activity decreased by 18.7% and the pore blockage rate was 25.4%.

[0079] The above embodiments are merely examples for clarification and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other variations or modifications may be made based on the above descriptions. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here, and any obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
