AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies result in high reaction temperatures, wide carbon number distributions, and high aromatic content in polyolefin recycling processes. Furthermore, the hydrogenolysis process consumes large amounts of expensive reactants, and the selective shearing and carbon number distribution control are not ideal, leading to low economic efficiency.
A ruthenium-based catalyst supported on tungsten oxide/mesoporous zirconium oxide is used to construct a metal-acid bifunctional catalyst through the synergistic effect of metallic ruthenium as a dehydrogenation site and acidic sites on mesoporous zirconium oxide. This catalyst is then used to carry out the hydrogenolysis reaction of polyethylene to generate high-value-added diesel-range liquid fuels.
It enables the production of liquid fuels, primarily isoalkanes with carbon numbers concentrated in the range of gasoline and diesel, under mild reaction conditions. This reduces the selectivity of gaseous products such as methane, avoids excessive hydrogen consumption, and improves economy and efficiency.

Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of catalysts, and particularly relates to a tungsten oxide / mesoporous zirconium oxide supported ruthenium-based catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The global annual output of plastic waste is more than 400 million tons, and polyolefin (PE / PP) accounts for more than 60%. It takes hundreds of years for natural degradation. At present, most of the waste plastics have not been recycled and processed, causing great harm to the ecological environment.
[0003] Traditional landfill / incineration leads to microplastic pollution and a sharp increase in carbon emissions (1.7 tons of carbon dioxide are released per ton of plastic incineration).
[0004] The performance of the regenerated plastic by the traditional mechanical method is poor, and the cost is also higher.
[0005] Chemical recycling is a promising plastic recycling and degradation technology at present, which can realize the polymerization of plastic to monomer or the selective conversion of plastic to high-value chemicals, and has been widely studied by domestic and foreign research groups. Polyolefin is essentially a hydrocarbon (C / H ratio is about 2), and its conversion to liquid fuel can realize the transformation of waste plastic to oil, which is equivalent to the addition of hundreds of millions of tons of renewable energy. At present, various methods such as pyrolysis recycling, hydrogenolysis recycling and olefin metathesis have been developed. The pyrolysis reaction temperature is too high, the product carbon number distribution is wide, and the aromatic hydrocarbon content is high, which is not suitable for liquid fuel; hydrogenolysis recycling and olefin metathesis still lack economy due to high reaction temperature or consumption of a large amount of expensive co-reactants (hydrogen or short-chain olefins, etc.), and the selectivity of shearing such as methane and the regulation of carbon number distribution are still not ideal. Therefore, the construction of a hydrogenolysis catalyst with high activity and precise shearing of polyolefin chains is the development goal in the future. SUMMARY
