Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of propylene epoxidation, in particular to a nano-gold loaded titanium-silicon molecular sieve, a preparation method thereof and a propylene gas phase epoxidation method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Propylene oxide, also known as oxirane or methyl epoxide, has the chemical formula C3H6O and is an important propylene derivative. Propylene oxide has a low boiling point and is flammable and miscible with ethanol and diethyl ether.

[0003] Currently, the industrial production of propylene oxide mainly adopts chlorohydrination method, co-oxidation method and hydrogen peroxide direct oxidation method (HPPO). The chlorohydrination method needs to use toxic chlorine gas and produces a large amount of calcium chloride waste residue in the production process; the process benefit of the co-oxidation method is deeply affected by the co-produced products. The HPPO process is relatively simple and clean and environmentally friendly. The HPPO process uses titanium-silicon molecular sieve as a catalyst and hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant. Hydrogen peroxide is one of the main reactants and is used in a large amount; however, due to the cost and transportation problems of hydrogen peroxide, the HPPO process usually needs to be matched with a hydrogen peroxide production device. In order to further optimize the process layout, the production of hydrogen peroxide is integrated into the epoxidation process, that is, under the action of the catalyst, propylene directly reacts with hydrogen and oxygen to occur epoxidation. In order to realize the in-situ synthesis of hydrogen peroxide, another metal active center needs to be loaded on the original titanium-silicon molecular sieve carrier. Research has found that Au, Ag, Pd and their alloys can be used as active centers for catalyzing the generation of hydrogen peroxide.

[0004] As a carrier for loading metal nanoparticles, TS-1 molecular sieve not only has framework Ti atoms as active centers for catalyzing epoxidation reactions, but also has ten-membered ring micropore channels. The rich pore structure in the molecular sieve promotes the diffusion of reaction molecules in its interior while fully contacting and reacting with the adjacent framework Ti atoms. For conventional TS-1 molecular sieve, micropores with a pore size of 0.55 nm account for the majority, and the internal surface area and micropore volume are limited, which leads to limited reaction effect when the reaction molecules diffuse in the TS-1 channel. When using plugged TS-1 molecular sieve as a carrier for loading metal, only the framework Ti atoms on the outer surface of the particles can play a synergistic catalytic role with the metal nanoparticles, and a large number of four-coordinated Ti species in the interior of the particles do not play a catalytic role. Therefore, it is very important to use TS-1 molecular sieve carriers with high specific surface area to improve the catalytic reaction effect.

[0005] In addition, the dispersion of metal nanoparticles also has a significant impact on the catalytic effect. Currently, there is little research on the control of the dispersion of metal nanoparticles. SUMMARY

[0006] The present application aims to overcome the problems of low internal surface area of TS-1 molecular sieve carrier and control of dispersion of metal nanoparticles loaded thereon in the prior art, and provides a nano-gold loaded titanium-silicon molecular sieve, a preparation method thereof and a method for propylene gas phase epoxidation.

[0016] (5) filtering the second suspension, and subjecting the obtained filter residue to calcination to obtain the nano-gold loaded titanium-silicon molecular sieve.

[0017] The present application provides a nano-gold loaded titanium-silicon molecular sieve prepared by the method according to the second aspect.

[0138] Test Example

[0139] The gold nanoparticles loaded titanium silicalite molecular sieves prepared in Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were used as catalysts, the catalysts were loaded into a tubular reactor with an inner diameter of 8mm, then heated to 180℃ in a N2 atmosphere, and hydrogen, oxygen and propylene were introduced to start the reaction, after 1h of reaction, the product was analyzed online; wherein the amount of catalyst was 0.4g, the flow rates of the gases, the reaction temperature and the pressure are shown in Table 6, and the catalytic reaction results are shown in Table 7.

[0149] ​As can be seen from the results of Test 1-12 and Test 19-23 in Table 7, the nano-gold loaded titanium silicalite of the embodiment of the present application has high catalytic activity for propylene gas phase epoxidation reaction, so that the conversion rate of propylene is increased to 10.1% or more, and the selectivity of the product propylene oxide is increased to 90.3% or more.

[0151] As can be seen from the comparison between Test 1 and Test 17-18, when the pore volume of the titanium silicalite does not meet the requirements, the catalytic activity of the nano-gold loaded titanium silicalite for propylene gas phase epoxidation reaction is also obviously reduced, and it is difficult to simultaneously meet the requirements of high conversion rate of propylene and high selectivity of propylene oxide.

[0152] As can be seen from the comparison between Test 1 and Test 24-25, during the preparation of the nano-gold loaded titanium silicalite, too high or too low calcination temperature will reduce the catalytic activity of the nano-gold loaded titanium silicalite for propylene gas phase epoxidation reaction.

[0153] As can be seen from the comparison between Test 1 and Test 26-27, during the preparation of the nano-gold loaded titanium silicalite, too low microwave heating time will reduce the dispersion degree of the gold nano-particles loaded on the molecular sieve, and further reduce the catalytic activity of the nano-gold loaded titanium silicalite for propylene gas phase epoxidation reaction.
