Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oxidizing methane-containing gas to methanol, and particularly to a method for in-situ Raman measurement of carbon deposition on a catalyst for oxidizing methane-containing gas to methanol. Background Art

[0002] Coalbed methane is mainly rich in CH4 and is the most abundant and cheapest natural gas resource with great utilization potential. However, the current utilization rate of coalbed methane is not high, and there is a problem of direct venting. This has caused a large amount of resource waste, aggravated the greenhouse effect and environmental hazards. Methane has a much shorter lifespan in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, yet the harmfulness of methane is about 28 - 36 times that of carbon dioxide [M.Ravi, M.Ranocchiari, J.A. van Bokhoven, The Direct Catalytic Oxidation of Methane to Methanol - A Critical Assessment, Angewandte Chemie, 56(2017)16464 - 16483]. Therefore, it is necessary to convert methane. Currently, however, the methane in coalbed methane is mainly converted into methanol, a chemical raw material that is easy to transport and has many uses, through an energy - intensive industrial two - step process. This industrial production not only has a high processing cost but also produces some greenhouse gas. Therefore, the direct one - step conversion of methane in coalbed methane to methanol by catalytic technology is a more worthy - of - attention technology, which can not only improve the economic benefits of coalbed methane but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions [S.Cao, K.Zhang, B.Hanna, E.Al - Sayed, Methane oxidation by green oxidant to methanol over zeolite - based catalysts, Chinese Chemical Letters, 33(2022) 1757 - 1762; S.A.M.Ahmed, N.Jidnyasa, R.J.Krupadam, G.Hippargi, Y.Taraka Prabhu, U.Pal, S.S.Rayalu, P.Nagababu, Improved heterogeneous catalytic conversion of methane to methanol at ambient conditions, Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering, 8(2020)104103]. However, in the process of directly converting methane to methanol, methanol is prone to over - oxidation to form carbon dioxide and lead to the formation of carbon deposition, which deactivates the catalyst. Therefore, studying the generation of carbon deposition during the reaction process is conducive to further exploring the mechanism of methane - to - methanol conversion and designing more efficient and economically viable catalysts and reaction conditions.

[0003] Raman spectroscopy is usually used to detect the carbon signal of the catalyst after the reaction. By analyzing the D band (about 1335 cm-1 ) and G belt (approximately 1580cm -1 ) to qualitatively measure the carbon deposition behavior in the catalyst. However, this measurement can usually only be used for catalysts after the reaction, and is not effective for the carbon deposition signal of the catalyst during the reaction and under changing reaction conditions. Therefore, by installing a high-temperature and high-pressure micro-Raman in-situ reaction cell and its supporting atmosphere control system, temperature control system, Raman data acquisition control system and safety measures and protection measures, the high-temperature and high-pressure in-situ Raman system can detect the carbon deposition change behavior of non-carbon catalysts in the process of coalbed methane (methane) oxidation to methanol under different atmospheres, different temperatures and different reaction times. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for in-situ Raman measurement of carbon deposition on catalysts for producing methanol by oxidation of methane-containing gas. The method is a new method for quantitatively measuring carbon deposition of non-carbon catalysts in the production of methanol by oxidation of coalbed methane (methane) using high temperature and high pressure in-situ Raman, and can detect the carbon deposition behavior of non-carbon catalysts in the production of methanol by oxidation of coalbed methane (methane) under different atmospheres, different temperatures and different reaction times.

[0005] The methane-containing gas is coalbed methane and / or methane.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A method for in-situ Raman measurement of carbon deposition on a catalyst for producing methanol by oxidation of methane-containing gas, using in-situ Raman spectroscopy to measure and obtain Raman spectral signals of non-carbon catalyst samples in a process of producing methanol by oxidation of methane-containing gas under different atmospheres, different reaction temperatures and different reaction times, extracting the integral areas of carbon D-band peaks and G-band peaks from the spectral signals, and comparing them with the integral areas of carbon D-band peaks and G-band peaks of a standard sample with a known carbon content, to calculate the carbon deposition amount of the non-carbon catalyst, and the calculation formula is:

[0008]

[0009] Among them, the unit of carbon deposition of non-carbon catalyst is mg / g; the unit of D band and G band peak area of ​​non-carbon catalyst is integrated area, dimensionless; the unit of k value is (mg / g) -1 .

[0010] A high-temperature and high-pressure in-situ Raman system comprises a high-temperature and high-pressure microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell and its matching gas control system, temperature control system, Raman data acquisition control system and safety protection measures.

[0011] In the present invention, the term "high temperature" means a temperature not higher than 1000°C.

[0012] In the present invention, the term "high pressure" refers to a pressure not exceeding 3 MPa.

[0013] Furthermore, there is a ceramic crucible inside the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell for placing the catalyst, and it has good sealing performance to maintain the pressure within 3 MPa. At the same time, there are gas flow channels and water-cooling channels.

[0014] Furthermore, the gas control system is composed of gas cylinders, digital flow meters, and connecting pipes, and can introduce different gases into the high-temperature and high-pressure microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell.

[0015] Furthermore, the control range of the digital flow meter is 0 to 50 ml per minute.

[0016] Furthermore, the different gases include methane, methane-oxygen mixture, methane-steam mixture, and methane-oxygen-steam mixture.

[0017] Furthermore, the temperature control system can control the temperature of the bottom of the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell and the surface of the detection mirror.

[0018] Furthermore, the temperature control range of the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell is 50 - 600 °C.

[0019] Furthermore, the data acquisition system mainly obtains spectral signals by measuring the non-carbon catalyst in the ceramic crucible inside through the window of the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell with Raman spectroscopy.

[0020] Furthermore, the wavelength of the incident light source of the Raman spectroscopy used is 532 nm, and the laser energy is 10% of the rated power.

[0021] Furthermore, the signals related to carbon deposition in the measured spectral signals are the D band (about 1335 cm -1 ) and the G band (about 1580 cm -1 ).

[0022] Furthermore, the safety protection measures mainly use a water cooler to connect the pipes on the surface of the high-temperature and high-pressure microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell to reduce the temperature of the device environment, and to protect the reaction cell window and Raman spectroscopy from high-temperature damage to the instrument.

[0023] Further, by processing the Raman spectrum data of the standard sample (mordenite MOR standard containing carbon black) and obtaining the standard curve of the catalyst carbon deposition amount, the specific test steps are as follows: Prepare a carbon black mordenite (MOR) standard sample, and the mass content of carbon black is expressed as the mass of carbon black divided by the total mass of the standard, with the unit of mg / g. Measure the Raman spectrum data of multiple groups of standard samples by in-situ Raman, plot the scatter diagram of the peak area of the G band and D band - carbon deposition content, and calculate the k value of the peak area constant of the G band and D band per unit mass of the standard sample by the method of linear regression.

[0024] Further, for the measurement method, the specific measurement process is as follows: Place the non-carbon catalyst in a small ceramic crucible inside the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell, then connect the pipeline between the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell and the gas cylinder so that the carbon deposition behavior of the catalyst under different atmospheres can be measured. Connect a water-cooled pipeline to the upper layer of the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell to keep the surface temperature of the lens low to prevent damage to the instrument. Connect a temperature control heating device so that the Raman spectrum can measure the signal of the catalyst in the high-temperature microscopic Raman in-situ reaction cell at different temperatures. Before introducing the reaction gas, first introduce nitrogen to sweep away the excess gas, then set the test temperature, introduce the reaction gas at the set temperature, measure the spectral signal under specific conditions by Raman spectroscopy, and extract the changes in the D band and G band signals to evaluate the changes in the carbon deposition behavior. The specific calculation process is as follows: Extract the integral areas of the D band peak and G band peak of carbon from the spectral signal, compare them with the integral areas of the D band peak and G band peak of carbon in the standard sample with known carbon content, and calculate the carbon deposition amount of the non-carbon catalyst. The calculation formula is:

[0025]

[0026] The unit of the carbon deposition amount of the non-carbon catalyst is mg / g, the unit of the peak area is the integral area, dimensionless, and the unit of k is (mg / g) -1 。

[0027] Therefore, the carbon deposition behavior at different temperatures in one atmosphere, the carbon deposition behavior at different atmospheres at a specific temperature, and the change behavior of carbon deposition with time at a specific temperature and specific atmosphere can be measured by the whole set of in-situ Raman devices.

[0028] Beneficial effects:

[0029] The benefits of the present invention are reflected in being able to qualitatively measure the carbon deposition of non-carbon catalysts during the reaction of coalbed methane (methane) oxidation to methanol, and studying the effects of atmosphere, temperature, and reaction time on carbon deposition of non-carbon catalysts in the oxidation of coalbed methane (methane) to methanol through the changes in data. By reducing the carbon deposition deactivation of the catalyst, the service life of non-carbon catalysts in the oxidation of coalbed methane (methane) to methanol can be extended. It is possible to more deeply reveal the carbon deposition behavior of non-carbon catalysts during the reaction of coalbed methane (methane) oxidation to methanol under different reaction atmospheres such as coalbed methane (methane), coalbed methane (methane)-oxygen mixture, and coalbed methane (methane)-oxygen-water vapor mixture, different reaction temperatures from 50 to 600 °C, and different reaction times from 1 to 6 hours.

The sample is located in the center of the heating furnace, and the temperature can be programmed. There are pressure and temperature sensors at the reaction cell to detect the temperature and pressure inside the reaction cell. The atmosphere system uses oxygen cylinders, methane cylinders, nitrogen cylinders, and a steam generator as gas sources, and digital flow meters are used to control the flow rates of each reaction gas. Data acquisition consists of a Raman spectrometer and a computer, and a computer program is used to control the Raman spectroscopy acquisition. The safety protection measures consist of a water cooler and water pipes to ensure that the outer shell of the in-situ reaction cell works at a safe temperature.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] By processing the Raman spectroscopy data of a standard sample (a mordenite MOR standard containing carbon black), a standard curve for the carbon deposition amount of the catalyst is obtained and plotted as Figure 2 , and the specific test steps are as follows: Prepare a carbon black mordenite standard sample by mixing a certain mass of carbon black (Cabot vulcan xc-72, Macklin) and mordenite (SAR: 25-30, ZRCATALYST CO., LTD). The mass content of carbon black (the mass of carbon black divided by the total mass of the standard) is 20 mg / g, 50 mg / g, 100 mg / g, 150 mg / g, 200 mg / g, 300 mg / g, and 500 mg / g respectively. Under a nitrogen atmosphere of 20 ml / min and at a temperature of 320 °C, multiple groups of Raman spectroscopy data of the standard samples are measured, and a peak area-content curve is plotted. The peak area constants k of the G band and D band per unit mass of the standard sample are calculated by the method of linear regression. The formula is:

The carbon deposition amount of the non-carbon catalyst was calculated using the following formula: ; The method specifically includes the following steps: placing a non-carbon catalyst into a ceramic crucible inside a high-temperature and high-pressure in-situ Raman reaction cell, then connecting the pipeline between the high-temperature and high-pressure in-situ Raman reaction cell and the gas cylinder so that the carbon deposition behavior of the catalyst under different atmospheres can be measured, connecting a water-cooling pipeline to the upper layer of the high-temperature and high-pressure in-situ Raman reaction cell, and connecting a temperature-controlled heating device so that the Raman spectrum can measure the signal of the catalyst in the high-temperature and high-pressure in-situ Raman reaction cell at different temperatures; before introducing the reaction gas, first introduce nitrogen to sweep away the excess gas, then set the test temperature, introduce different reaction gases at the set temperature, measure the spectral signal under predetermined conditions through Raman spectroscopy, and extract the quantitative changes in the D-band and G-band signals of carbon to evaluate the dynamic changes in the carbon deposition behavior; the method can measure the carbon deposition of the non-carbon catalyst during the reaction of oxidizing coalbed methane to methanol, and study the effects of atmosphere, temperature, and reaction time on the carbon deposition of the non-carbon catalyst in the oxidation of coalbed methane to methanol through the changes in data, so as to extend the service life of the non-carbon catalyst in the oxidation of coalbed methane to methanol by reducing the carbon deposition deactivation of the catalyst; The calculation method of the k value is as follows: Using carbon black mixed with mordenite as the standard sample, the mass content of carbon black is expressed as the mass of carbon black divided by the total mass of the standard substance, with the unit of mg / g. Raman spectral data of multiple groups of standard samples were measured by in-situ Raman, and a scatter plot of the integrated area of the G-band and D-band peaks versus the carbon deposition content was plotted. The k value of the G-band and D-band peak areas per unit mass of the standard sample was calculated using the method of linear regression. The unit of peak area is integral area, dimensionless, and the unit of k is (mg / g). -1 .
