Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of catalysis technology, and in particular to a catalyst, its preparation method, application, and a method for catalytic hydrogenolysis. Background Technology

[0002] Plastic products are widely used in daily life due to their low cost and excellent physical and chemical properties. Studies show that global annual plastic production currently reaches a staggering 380 million tons and is still growing rapidly. However, plastic itself is difficult to degrade naturally due to its high stability, making the disposal of large quantities of waste plastic a significant concern. Currently, only 12% of waste plastic can be reused through mechanical recycling, resulting in a low recycling rate accompanied by plastic degradation. The remaining approximately 40% is directly landfilled, 27% is incinerated to recover heat energy, and the rest is simply discarded into the environment. Regardless of the disposal method, significant environmental problems arise; therefore, exploring methods to recycle and reuse plastics has important economic and environmental value.

[0003] Although chemical treatment methods for plastics currently account for only 1% of waste plastic processing and are limited to relatively high-value plastics like PET, they still hold great promise due to their versatility, robustness, and potential for large-scale production. Thermocatalytic degradation, as the most universal chemical treatment method, can be applied to the degradation of various types of plastics, breaking them down into small-molecule alkanes. This not only solves the waste plastic problem but also generates renewable energy that can serve as a petroleum substitute.

[0004] The biggest problem in the recycling of waste plastics is that they must undergo strict pretreatment of cleaning and sorting. However, the high marginal cost of cleaning plastics hinders the further industrial application of chemical degradation of plastics. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a catalyst with high stability and pollution tolerance, which can be unaffected by different types of waste plastics while also being tolerant to residual pollutants on the plastics. In the pursuit of high product selectivity in a hydrogen atmosphere, the degradation of waste plastics often involves two systems. The first is the hydrogenolysis reaction driven by noble metal Pt and Ru-based catalysts (Liu, S., et al. "Plastic waste to fuels by hydrocracking at mild conditions." Science Advances 7.17 (2021): eabf8283. Kots, PA, et al. "Polypropylene Plastic Waste Conversion to Lubricants over Ru / TiO2 Catalysts." ACS Catalysis 11. (2021): 8104-8115.), which utilizes noble metals to simultaneously complete the skeletal fracture and hydrogenation. This type of system often suffers from high catalyst costs, the generation of low-value straight-chain alkane products, a high proportion of C1C2 products, and the insensitivity of precious metals such as Pt and Ru to common pollutants in waste plastics such as S and As. These practical problems are often overlooked in literature studies, which often only use clean plastic particles. The second type of system is an acidic support system loaded with transition metals. This type of system often utilizes the C / C bond breaking ability of the acidic support and the hydrogenation ability of the transition metal to achieve the hydrogenation degradation of plastics.However, systems loaded with non-precious metals often require reaction temperatures above 350°C (Munir, Dureem, et al. Composite zeolite beta catalysts for catalytic hydrocracking of plastic waste to liquid fuels. Materials for Renewable and Sustainable Energy 9.2 (2020). Ding, Weibing, L. Jing, and LL Anderson. Hydrocracking and Hydroisomerization of High-Density Polyethylene and Waste Plastic over Zeolite and Silica Alumina-Supported Ni and NiMo Sulfides. Energy & Fuels 11.6 (1997):1219-1224.), consuming a significant amount of energy. Systems loaded with precious metals face the same problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a pollution-resistant system for hydrogenolysis of waste plastics that does not contain precious metals and can be achieved at temperatures of 250°C or below. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of existing catalytic hydrogenolysis of waste plastics, such as the poor pollution tolerance and high cost of precious metal systems and the high reaction temperature required for non-precious metal systems, the purpose of this invention is to provide a catalyst, its preparation method, application, and catalytic hydrogenolysis method.

[0057] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a method for catalytic hydrogenolysis, wherein the catalytic hydrogenolysis of plastics or small molecule alkanes is carried out in the presence of the above-mentioned catalyst.

[0058] Preferably, the method includes the following steps:

[0059] The plastic is pulverized and then subjected to a catalytic hydrogenolysis reaction under the conditions of the catalyst and hydrogen; or, the small molecule alkane is subjected to a catalytic hydrogenolysis reaction under the conditions of the catalyst and hydrogen.

[0060] More preferably, it also includes at least one of the following technical features:

[0069] As described above, the invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0070] 1) The catalyst of this invention contains Mo in both the channels and the outer surface of the molecular sieve, with an S / Mo ratio lower than 2 of MoS2, and the valence state of Mo is slightly higher than +4. A small amount of O and Mo are bonded to the molecular sieve support, effectively anchoring the Mo nanoparticles. In the degradation of plastics such as polyolefins or small molecule alkanes, this catalyst exhibits good low-temperature hydrocracking activity at 250℃ and below. It also shows excellent reactivity in the degradation of everyday waste plastics and contaminated waste plastics, with the products mainly being C5-C16 branched alkanes and fewer gaseous products, achieving good technical results.

[0071] 2) The catalyst of this invention has the properties of high dispersion, high stability and high pollution tolerance.

[0072] 3) The catalyst preparation method of the present invention uses carbonyl molybdenum organometallic compound as the Mo species. It is sublimated and diffused into the molecular sieve channel under vacuum conditions. First, Mo sites anchored on the molecular sieve are generated by a one-step high temperature process. Then, the molecular sieve catalyst with nano-molybdenum sulfide particles supported is prepared by hydrogen sulfide treatment for use in the catalytic hydrogenolysis reaction of plastics.

[0073] 4) In the catalyst preparation method of this invention, the Mo-containing organic precursor and molecular sieve are sublimated and adsorbed under vacuum conditions. This effectively adsorbs molybdenum both inside and on the surface of the molecular sieve, and effectively avoids molybdenum aggregation, achieving highly dispersed molybdenum loading. The activation process of the Mo-containing organic precursor (calcination and decomposition under an inert or reducing atmosphere) effectively enhances the interaction between Mo and the molecular sieve, allowing Mo to combine with oxygen on the molecular sieve and effectively anchoring Mo nanoparticles. This alleviates the accumulation of Mo species in the surface-loaded catalyst, effectively improving the stability of the catalyst during the reaction process.

[0074] 5) The catalyst of this invention exhibits good low-temperature hydrocracking activity at 250°C and below when applied to the catalytic degradation of plastics such as polyolefins or small molecule alkanes. It also shows excellent reactivity in the degradation of waste plastics used in daily life and contaminated waste plastics. The products are mainly C5-C16 branched alkanes with fewer gaseous products, achieving good technical results.

[0075] 6) The catalyst of this invention, namely the MoS2 molecular sieve catalyst, can effectively utilize the C-C bond breaking ability of molecular sieves and the hydrogenation ability of MoS2. Without the doping of precious metals, it can realize the catalytic hydrogenolysis reaction of plastics such as polyolefins or small molecule alkanes at relatively low temperatures of 250°C and below.

[0076] 7) The catalyst of this invention is suitable for the catalytic degradation of plastics such as polyolefins or small molecule alkanes. At reaction pressures of 5–50 atm, reaction temperatures of 160–300°C, reaction times of 1–16 h, and catalyst loadings of 5 wt%–20 wt%, it exhibits high activity in the hydrogenolysis of polyolefins, primarily producing liquid-phase products. Low-value products such as C1 and C2, which are more abundant in noble metal catalysts, are also present in relatively small quantities. A certain conversion rate has also been observed in other plastics besides polyolefins. Furthermore, when processing plastics, small amounts of other plastics do not affect the reaction performance; that is, the catalyst of this invention can be applied to various plastic systems, achieving the degradation process at relatively low temperatures.

[0097] The present invention is further illustrated below with reference to the embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Experimental methods and reagents not specified in the following embodiments, unless otherwise stated, were performed or prepared under conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer.

[0098] Example 1

[0099] The catalyst was prepared using molybdenum hexacarbonyl as the raw material and Hβ molecular sieve. The mass of molybdenum in the molybdenum hexacarbonyl was 3% of the mass of the Hβ molecular sieve (SiO2 / Al2O3 molar ratio of 25:1). It was loaded at 35℃ and 3mbar vacuum for 1h (sublimation adsorption), activated at 400℃ for 1.5h (calcination decomposition) with 8% nitrogen-hydrogen mixture (hydrogen volume percentage of 8%), and then sulfided at 150℃ in a sulfur and 15atm H2 atmosphere for 10h (sulfidation treatment). The amount of sulfur used was 10% of the total mass of molybdenum and molecular sieve. The product was then activated at 450℃ for 3h (calcination) with 8% nitrogen-hydrogen mixture (hydrogen volume percentage of 8%).

[0100] The TEM, elemental analysis maps of Mo and S, and HAADF-STEM images of the catalysts obtained by the above preparation method are shown below. Figure 1 1a~1c.

[0101] STEM images of the catalyst before and after the reaction are shown below. Figure 2 In sections 2a and 2b, the reaction refers to the catalytic cracking reaction of low-density polyethylene (MB9500, Mw=300k) under the conditions of 250℃, 6h, and 20atmH2, with the mass ratio of catalyst to low-density polyethylene powder being 1:10.

[0102] The catalyst XRD pattern is shown below. Figure 3 .

[0103] The final Mo content of the catalyst, as determined by XPS analysis, was 2.6%. (XPS graph shown below) Figure 4 This catalyst was used in all subsequent embodiments.

[0104] Low-density polyethylene (MB9500, Mw=300k) powder or polyethylene wax powder (AC-6A, Mw=4k) obtained directly from purchase is mixed with the prepared catalyst powder in a 10:1 ratio. The mixture is then reacted in a high-pressure reactor under specific temperature and pressure conditions for a certain time to successfully obtain the degradation product. Figure 5 (5a-5d). As can be seen from the figure, the catalyst synthesized by this method (i.e., ...) Figure 5 MoS2-Hbeta in a) compared to the molecular sieve itself (i.e. Figure 5 a) and a simple mixture of molecular sieves and MoS2 (i.e., Hbeta) and MoS2. Figure 5The conversion rate of Hbeta + 10% MoS2 in (a) is much higher. High conversion rates can be achieved for both the high molecular weight MB9500 (Mw = 300k) and the low molecular weight AC-6A (Mw = 4k) under the corresponding reaction conditions. Reaction time and temperature have a significant impact on the conversion of the product; the conversion rate of polyethylene increases significantly with increasing time and temperature. Pressure has some influence on the reaction; with increasing pressure, the conversion rate initially increases and then remains approximately constant.

[0105] Example 2

[0106] Different polyolefin powders (LDPE MB9500, PP H1500, LLDPE LL6210RQ, HDPE HMA-016) obtained directly from the market and the prepared catalyst powder were mixed at a mass ratio of 10:1, at 200℃, for 16 h, and at 30 atm H2 (…). Figure 6 The reaction performance of different polyolefin powders was observed under the conditions of 200℃. Various polyolefins exhibited excellent catalytic hydrocracking performance.

[0107] Example 3

[0108] Low-density polyethylene powder (LDPE MB9500) obtained directly and the catalyst were mixed in different proportions (Table 1) under reaction conditions of 25 / 20 atm H2, 6 h, and 250 °C. It can be seen that good conversion rates were observed from 5% to 20%, and the reaction activity continuously increased with increasing loading. From the perspective of both the normal and isomeric C4 products, the products are mainly isomerized hydrocarbons.

[0109] Table 1

[0110]

[0111] Example 4

[0112] Low-density polyethylene (MB9500, Mw=300k) powder obtained directly from the market was mixed with catalyst at a mass ratio of 1:10. Then, various contaminants that might be encountered in real waste plastic systems, including moisture, acidic environments, plastic additives, and different inorganic salts, were added and mixed in a specific ratio. Figure 7 The reaction was carried out in a high-pressure reactor at 250℃ for 6 hours under a hydrogen atmosphere at 25 atm. As shown in the figure below, the catalyst exhibits good tolerance to various contaminants, and the product still demonstrates high selectivity for liquid-phase hydrocarbons.

[0113] Example 5

[0114] Polypropylene (PP), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polystyrene powder (PP H1500, LDPE MB9500, HDPE HMA-016, PS MN-1-310), and the prepared catalyst powder were mixed in a certain proportion (Table 2). The mixture was then reacted in a high-pressure reactor at 250℃ for 8 hours under a hydrogen atmosphere of 25 atm, maintaining a relatively high conversion rate (Table 2, No. 9). As can be seen from (Nos. 1-8), the catalyst exhibits a certain conversion rate for various plastics other than polyethylene and polypropylene, including polyvinyl chloride (PVC), PVC (PBM-6), polystyrene (PS) (MN-1-310), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) (FB530), polyurethane (TPU) (HT-8757), nylon 6PA6 (1013B), ABS (GP-22), polycarbonate (PC) (2407), and polylactic acid (PLA) (PBM-6). Adding different types of other plastics (Table 2, item 10) to the mixed polyolefins also maintained a relatively good reaction conversion rate. Furthermore, commercially available plastic products ( Figure 8 The reaction was carried out after cutting up 8a and 8b (I PE disposable plastic droppers, II HDPE reaction reagent bottles, III PP meltblown fabric masks, IV PE disposable plastic wrap) into small pieces, and the conversion rate was also good. It is worth noting that used, contaminated, and completely unwashed plastic ( Figure 8 The PP plastic cup (V, which has contained porridge) and the PP lunch box (VI, which has contained rice) also showed good reactivity in the reaction.
