Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a dehydrogenation catalyst, a preparation method and application thereof, and a method for preparing alkenyl aromatic hydrocarbons by dehydrogenating alkyl aromatic hydrocarbons. Background Art

[0002] Styrene is an important basic organic chemical raw material. Currently, more than 85% of the world's industrial production uses direct dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene. The main reaction is C6H5-C2H5→C6H5CH=CH2+H2ΔH f298 = +123kJ / mol. This reaction is an endothermic reaction with increased volume, requiring a large amount of water vapor to provide energy, act as a diluent to promote chemical equilibrium, induce the formation of the catalyst's active phase, inhibit carbon deposition, and maintain the system's oxidation state. The activation of the catalyst precursor to produce a metastable potassium ferrite phase, the high-temperature cracking of water, and the vaporization of carbon dictate that the reaction typically proceeds at temperatures exceeding 600°C. Existing styrene catalysts are mostly Fe-K-based, with iron oxide as the primary catalyst and K as the primary additive. They also contain structural stabilizers such as oxides of Ce, Mg, Mo, W, or Ca. In recent years, market pressures for larger-scale equipment, high-load operation, and energy conservation and consumption reduction have driven continuous improvements in catalysts toward higher yields, greater mechanical strength, improved tolerance to low water ratios, and greater stability.

[0003] Cerium oxide is widely used in industry due to its unique cubic fluorite crystal structure, abundant surface defects, and excellent oxygen storage and release capabilities. Previous studies have shown that higher Ce content improves catalyst selectivity and yield, while the CeO2 crystal structure provides considerable mechanical strength and wear resistance. Existing techniques for improving catalytic performance primarily rely on manipulating the Ce content, the type and ratio of the cerium source, and the preparation method.

[0004] CN101992092B uses cerium oxalate and cerium carbonate as cerium sources, and simultaneously regulates the ratio of the two cerium sources; CN105562025B uses cerium salts and cerium oxide as cerium sources. CN104096568B reports a Fe-K-Ce-Mg-Mo ethylbenzene dehydrogenation to styrene catalyst and preparation method. The cerium source uses a certain ratio of cerium nitrate and homemade nano-cerium trioxide. The prepared catalyst has high crushing resistance and high catalytic activity under low water ratio conditions, but does not mention stability under low water ratio conditions. CN101992092B reports a catalyst in the Fe-K-Ce-Mo-Mg system. By adding a certain ratio of cerium oxalate and cerium carbonate, the mechanical strength and stability of the low-potassium catalyst are improved, but the applicable water ratio of 2.0 (by weight) is still relatively high.

[0005] Recently, US20170121241A1 disclosed a Fe-K-Ce-Mg-Ca-Mo hydrocarbon dehydrogenation catalyst. By adjusting the auxiliary agent composition and catalyst preparation method, the weight ratio of the Fe-K mixed oxide phase is controlled to be greater than 20% and the grain size of cerium oxide is controlled to be 10-30nm. At a water ratio of 1.25 (weight), the styrene yield can reach 69.2%. However, the catalyst grain size range is relatively limited, and the stability effect at low water ratio is not mentioned. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Based on the problem of low activity of dehydrogenation catalysts in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a high-activity low-water-ratio-tolerant dehydrogenation catalyst and a preparation method thereof, wherein the dehydrogenation catalyst can maintain good catalytic activity and alkenyl aromatic hydrocarbon yield under low water-ratio conditions.

[0015] According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing alkenyl aromatics by dehydrogenating alkyl aromatics is provided, comprising: contacting alkyl aromatics with the dehydrogenation catalyst of the present invention under alkyl aromatic dehydrogenation reaction conditions for reaction; preferably, the alkyl aromatic dehydrogenation reaction conditions include: a temperature of 590-630°C, a volume space velocity of 0.8-1.5h -1 , the weight ratio of water to alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon is 0.9-1.3, and the pressure is -40kPa to 1.01MPa; preferably, the alkyl aromatic hydrocarbon is ethylbenzene.

[0016] The present invention adds at least one VB group metal (preferably V, Nb, Ta) oxide additive and at least one IIIB group metal oxide (preferably Sc, Y, La, Pr, Nd, Sm) additive to the iron-potassium-cerium-tungsten-alkaline earth metal system, preferably controlling the weight ratio of the VB group and the IIIB group metal oxides to be 0.1 to 30; in addition, in the preparation method, preferably, the particle size distribution of the raw materials K source and Ce source is screened by grinding, and the particle size matching degree (D 50K / D 50IIIB金属 =0.01 to 500) and calcination conditions, the final catalyst has a median pore size range of 0.1 to 0.6 μm. On the one hand, the present invention optimizes the promotion of oxygen storage and release of cerium oxide by controlling the ratio of VB group and IIIB group metal oxides, thereby improving the catalytic activity and yield of the catalyst at low water ratios; at the same time, the pore size distribution and pore volume of the catalyst are optimized by preferably regulating the matching degree of the raw material K and Ce source particle size, as well as the calcination conditions, further improving the catalyst's resistance to carbon deposition and structural stability. The catalyst of the present invention is used in dehydrogenation reactions under low water ratio conditions, such as the dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene, and has good technical effects in promoting catalytic activity and single yield. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The endpoints of the ranges and any values ​​disclosed herein are not limited to the precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values ​​should be understood to include values ​​close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoints of each range, the endpoints of each range and individual point values, and the individual point values ​​can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered to be specifically disclosed herein.

[0018] The present invention provides a dehydrogenation catalyst, which comprises the following active components in weight percentage: (a) 63-81% Fe2O3; (b) 7-14% K2O; (c) 6-13% CeO2;

[0019] (d) 0.1-4% WO3; (e) 0.1-5% alkaline earth metal oxide;

[0020] (f) 0.05-6% of at least one metal oxide selected from Group VB; (g) 0.01-2% of at least one metal oxide selected from Group IIIB other than Ce; the weight ratio of the Group VB metal oxide to the Group IIIB metal oxide other than Ce is 0.1-30. The present invention adds at least one Group VB metal (preferably V, Nb, Ta) oxide promoter and at least one Group IIIB metal oxide (preferably Sc, Y, La, Pr, Nd, Sm) promoter to the iron-potassium-cerium-tungsten-alkaline earth metal system, preferably controlling the weight ratio of the Group VB to Group IIIB metal oxides to be 0.1-30, thereby optimizing the promotion of oxygen storage and release of cerium oxide and improving the catalytic activity and yield of the catalyst at low water ratios. The reason is speculated to be that VB group metals (V, Nb, Ta) have extremely high melting points, hardness, and corrosion resistance. In addition, doping with VB group elements such as V, Nb, and Ta can form solid solutions with Ce to stabilize Ce, increase the oxygen vacancy concentration on the CeO2 surface, improve the oxygen storage capacity of cerium oxide, and also improve the thermal stability of CeO2 at high temperatures. Group IIIB metals can enter the cerium oxide crystal structure, replace Ce, form more oxygen vacancies, and increase the stability of CeO2. These two types of metal oxides have a synergistic effect on improving the catalytic activity of the catalyst at low water ratios.

[0025] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the weight ratio of the VB group metal oxide to the IIIB group metal oxide is 0.2 to 15.

[0038] According to the present invention, preferably, the solvent in the kneading process is selected from at least one of water, alcohols, or esters, preferably deionized water. The solvent is added dropwise during the kneading process, and the amount of solvent added is adjusted according to the kneading time and the wetness of the material.
