Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst preparation, specifically relating to a dehydrogenation catalyst for the preparation of aldehydes or ketones by hydroxyl dehydrogenation and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] This invention relates to a method for using C6-C 12 Catalysts for the dehydrogenation of alcohols to prepare the corresponding aldehydes or ketones. Cyclohexanone is an organic compound with the chemical formula (CH2)5CO, a saturated cyclic ketone in which the carbonyl carbon atom is contained within a six-membered ring. It is a colorless, transparent liquid with an earthy odor; when containing trace amounts of phenol, it has a minty smell. Industrially, it is mainly used as a raw material and solvent in organic synthesis; for example, it can dissolve nitrocellulose, coatings, and paints. Major downstream products include caprolactam and adipic acid. Cyclododecanoate is an important chemical raw material intermediate. Its preparation involves trimerizing butadiene to obtain cyclododecanetriene, followed by hydrogenation and oxidation to obtain a mixture of cyclododecyl alcohol and cyclododecanoate (KA oil). The cyclododecyl alcohol is then dehydrogenated to obtain pure cyclododecanoate. Cyclododecanoate is an important raw material in the fragrance industry; for example, muscone and muscpyridine are produced from cyclododecanoate. It is also an important intermediate in the field of engineering plastics; long-chain nylon resins such as PA12 and PA1212 can be obtained from cyclododecanetriene via a cyclododecanoate process.

[0003] Currently used dehydrogenation catalysts are mainly copper-based, including copper-magnesium, copper-aluminum, copper-zinc, and copper-chromium types. The advantages of copper-based dehydrogenation catalysts include a high space velocity, resulting in a smaller reactor volume for processing the same amount of reactants. Additionally, the reaction temperature is relatively low, effectively reducing equipment investment and operating energy consumption. Furthermore, their high selectivity reduces the amount of heavy oil components during the reaction, thus significantly increasing the catalyst's lifespan. Improving the dehydrogenation conversion rate while maintaining high selectivity is the current research focus.

[0004] Kuno et al. (Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn., 1993, (66): 1699) used trimethylchlorosilane-modified hydrated zirconium oxide as a homogeneous dehydrogenation catalyst with a conversion rate of 98% and a selectivity of 100%. The catalyst reported in this patent has high activity, but the homogeneous catalyst and reaction products are difficult to separate, and the catalyst life is short. It is only in the theoretical research stage and does not yet have industrial application value. Chinese patent CN1056067A provides an industrial catalyst with the components CuO, ZnO, MgO, CaO and trace Na2O. When the reaction temperature is 250℃, the guaranteed conversion rate is above 65% and the selectivity is 99.5-100%; when the reaction temperature is 275-310℃, the guaranteed conversion rate is above 75% and the selectivity is above 99%. Although this catalyst has good activity, in order to further improve the dehydrogenation conversion rate, a higher reaction temperature must be used, and the catalyst activity is not significantly improved.

[0005] Currently, dehydrogenation catalysts exhibit low activity. Increasing the reaction temperature to improve activity leads to an increase in heavy oil production, thus affecting catalyst lifespan. Addressing the challenges of existing production processes, there is an urgent need to develop a highly active catalyst that can enhance dehydrogenation activity at lower temperatures, reduce the formation of heavy oil as a byproduct, and extend catalyst lifespan. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a dehydrogenation catalyst for the preparation of ketones from hydroxyl dehydrogenation. To overcome the problems of insufficient activity and the easy generation of heavy oil as a byproduct in existing dehydrogenation catalysts, a catalyst with high activity at a lower reaction temperature has been developed.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0008] A dehydrogenation catalyst for the preparation of aldehydes or ketones by hydroxyl dehydrogenation, the catalyst comprising the following components:

[0009] Copper oxide 30-45 wt%, preferably 30-40 wt%, more preferably 35-40 wt%;

[0010] Zinc oxide 45-60 wt%, preferably 45-55 wt%, more preferably 50-55 wt%;

[0011] 8-20 wt% silica, preferably 12-20 wt%;

[0012] Lithium silicate 1-5 wt%, preferably 1-3 wt%;

[0013] Based on the weight of the catalyst.

[0014] The catalyst described in this invention reduces its acidity and the formation of heavy oil byproduct by introducing a Li promoter. Li is fixed by reacting Li with a silicon source to form lithium silicate, and then further fixed by adding condensed aluminum phosphate, thus inhibiting lithium silicate loss. Furthermore, by using hydrothermal treatment with steam at different temperatures, the catalyst pores are effectively enlarged, improving mass transfer during the reaction and enabling the catalyst to exhibit better dehydrogenation activity at low temperatures.

[0015] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a dehydrogenation catalyst for the preparation of hydroxyl dehydrogenation to aldehydes or ketones.

[0019] S3: After aging, add an additive aqueous solution and continue aging;

[0020] S4: The slurry from S3 is filtered and washed to obtain a filter cake, which is then dried and calcined to obtain a catalyst;

[0021] S5: After adding a binder to the catalyst and extruding it, it is filled into the reactor, treated with steam, and then calcined to obtain the target catalyst.

[0022] In this invention, the copper salt in S1 is selected from one or more of copper nitrate, copper chloride, and copper acetate.

[0023] In this invention, the zinc salt in S1 is selected from one or more of zinc nitrate, zinc chloride, and zinc acetate.

[0029] In this invention, the aging time in S3 is 2-4 hours, and the aging temperature is 65-80℃, preferably 68-78℃.

[0030] In this invention, the additive in S3 is condensed aluminum phosphate and / or aluminum tripolyphosphate; preferably, the amount of additive added is 1-3% of the total weight of the catalyst. Preferably, the aqueous solution of the additive is added after aging for 1 hour.

[0031] In this invention, the calcination temperature of the filter cake in S4 is 260-330℃, preferably 280-320℃, and the calcination time is 3-12h, preferably 4-8h.

[0032] In this invention, the processing method described in S5 is as follows: after the catalyst is loaded into the reactor, it is purged with air at 110-130°C for 1-2 hours to dry the catalyst. Then, it is treated with steam at the same temperature for 1-2 hours, then heated to 140-170°C for 1-2 hours, then further heated to 200-230°C for 1-2 hours, and finally cooled to 100-120°C for air drying for 1-3 hours.

[0033] In this invention, the roasting described in S5 is roasting at 280-350℃ for 2-4 hours.

[0034] In the method of this invention, the hydrogenation reaction is carried out in a fixed-bed hydrogenation reactor. Preferably, the catalyst is further subjected to a reduction treatment before use. In some examples, the method is as follows: the hydrogenation catalyst is packed into the fixed-bed hydrogenation reactor, and first, the temperature is raised to 400-450°C and a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen containing 5-10 vol% H2 is introduced for pre-reduction for 1-3 hours. Then, the proportion of hydrogen in the hydrogen and nitrogen mixture is gradually increased to 100 vol%. During this process, the hot spot temperature of the catalyst bed must be controlled not to exceed 430°C. Then, reduction is carried out in a pure hydrogen atmosphere for 2-4 hours, with a gas hourly space velocity of 300-2000 h⁻¹ during the reduction process. -1 .

[0037] 2) In order to overcome the problem that Li additives are easily lost in the presence of water, Li is fixed by reacting Li with silicon source to generate lithium silicate, and condensed aluminum phosphate is added during the aging process after the slurry is settled to fix the lithium silicate and inhibit the loss of lithium silicate.
