Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of biomass chemical preparation, and specifically relates to M / N x O y The invention relates to the synthesis of a supported catalyst and a method for catalyzing furfural to prepare furfuryl alcohol. Background Art
[0002] Currently, increasing energy demand and overuse of fossil fuels have led to a severe fossil energy crisis and environmental pollution. Oil fields are depleting, and carbon dioxide emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels are affecting the Earth's climate, posing a serious obstacle for developing countries. Consequently, numerous studies are underway to explore and develop new renewable energy sources. Biomass energy, as a new type of renewable energy, is inherently carbon neutral, and the CO2 generated is reconsumed by the biomass, resulting in minimal environmental pollution. It is considered an excellent alternative to fossil fuels and a new generation of primary energy sources. Furfural is an important biomass platform derivative that can be produced from agricultural by-products such as corn cobs, waste straw, oat and wheat bran, sawdust, and sugarcane bagasse. This raw material not only poses no environmental risks but also offers considerable benefits for improving the environment.
[0003] Furfural derivatives are diverse, primarily including furfuryl alcohol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, furan, 2-methylfuran, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, and cyclopentanol. In furfural hydrogenation reactions, furfuryl alcohol is one of the most valuable furfural derivatives. It can be obtained by hydrogenating furfural with H2 in the gas or liquid phase over a transition metal catalyst. Furfuryl alcohol plays a major role in agriculture, healthcare, printing and dyeing, and the leather industry, serving as an important raw material for light industry and chemical products. It is particularly useful in the synthesis of furan resins, phenolic resins, and furfuryl alcohol-urea-formaldehyde resins, as a diluent for epoxy resins and a solvent for insoluble pigments such as phenolic resins. It can also be used in fine chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and coatings. The production process for producing furfuryl alcohol from furfural hydrogenation can be divided into two types: liquid-phase hydrogenation and gas-phase hydrogenation. The liquid-phase hydrogenation process was developed earlier, and the reaction is generally carried out at relatively high pressures (3-8 MPa) and temperatures (190-210°C). This places high demands on the reactor, and the degree of catalyst separation and selectivity determine the difficulty of product purification. Therefore, this method is generally not used to produce furfuryl alcohol. However, the vapor-phase hydrogenation reaction is carried out at room temperature or low pressure, making the catalyst easily recoverable and recyclable while also eliminating chromium pollution. Major furfural manufacturers both domestically and internationally use the vapor-phase method to produce furfuryl alcohol.
[0004] Typically, the hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol occurs on the surface of a metal catalyst. Various monometallic and bimetallic catalysts are used for furfural hydrogenation, with commonly used catalysts primarily categorized as precious metals and non-precious metals. Precious metal catalysts, such as Pd, Ru, Pt, and Au, are often used. However, their high activity makes side reactions (decarbonization, hydrogenolysis, and ring hydrogenation) almost unavoidable. Furthermore, the high cost of precious metals makes them prohibitive for industrial production. Consequently, attention has shifted to non-precious metals such as Cu, Co, Ni, and Fe. Copper-based catalysts were the first to be used in industrial furfural hydrogenation. They have attracted widespread attention for their high selectivity for C=O bond hydrogenation, avoiding furan ring hydrogenation and significantly increasing the yield of furfuryl alcohol. However, their ability to decompose hydrogen is poor, making improving the hydrogenation activity of copper-based catalysts a key to enhancing the selective hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol.
[0005] Supported copper-based catalysts refer to catalysts in which the active components of the catalyst are evenly dispersed on a selected carrier. Many carriers contain acidic or basic sites, which have certain catalytic performance for furfural hydrogenation. Ren et al. studied the characteristics of Cu / CuAl-MMO-400 catalyst in furfural hydrogenation and pointed out that: Cu + Species are both dehydrogenation active sites and hydrogenation active sites; Cu 0 The sites promote the transfer of H atoms between adsorbed substrates. Liu et al. prepared the catalyst Cu / MgO by the separated nucleation aging method. The high efficiency was attributed to the surface synergy between the catalytically active metallic copper species and the Lewis base sites, which is the key to the hydrogenation reaction related to hydrogen dissociation and carbonyl activation. Therefore, in the reaction of catalyzing furfural to furfuryl alcohol, we need to design a catalyst with both L acid sites and hydrogenation active sites, but it is still unknown what kind of carrier to choose to make the supported catalyst more conducive to the catalytic synthesis of furfural into furfuryl alcohol. In this patent, we use Cu + L acid sites, Cu 0 The hydrogenation active sites were obtained by adjusting the Cu + / Cu 0 The ratio of the two active sites is effectively combined and the synergistic effect is maximized, so that the reaction proceeds smoothly. Therefore, a new type of supported catalyst M / N is studied and developed. x O y and preparation method, so that the catalyst can efficiently catalyze furfural and selectively prepare furfuryl alcohol has become a problem to be solved.
