Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst preparation technology and application, specifically relating to a method for using an ultra-low content ruthenium-based catalyst in a fixed-bed acetylene hydrochlorination reaction to produce vinyl chloride. Background Technology

[0002] Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is one of the five major general-purpose resins, boasting advantages such as low price, flame retardancy, high strength, weather resistance, and excellent processing performance. It is widely used in building materials, home furnishings, agriculture, and medical devices, among other fields. Vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) is a crucial raw material primarily used in the production of PVC. In 2016, China's VCM production reached 11.84 million tons, accounting for over 30% of global production.

[0003] The calcium carbide process is the main method for producing vinyl chloride monomer in my country, and mercuric chloride is a commonly used catalyst in this process. However, mercury resources are becoming increasingly scarce as they are a non-renewable resource. Furthermore, the high toxicity and volatility of mercuric chloride pose serious threats to environmental safety and human health. On August 16, 2017, the Minamata Convention on Mercury officially came into effect globally. As one of the first signatories to the Convention, China will strictly adhere to its provisions. Therefore, developing mercury-free catalysts has become the most urgent and challenging task for my country's vinyl chloride industry, and is crucial for its green and sustainable development. Currently, mercury-free catalysts reported domestically and internationally are mainly divided into three categories: (1) precious metal catalysts; (2) non-precious metal catalysts; and (3) metal-free catalysts. Among these, precious metal catalysts are considered to have the most promising prospects for industrial application.

[0004] Recent studies have shown that noble metals such as Au, Pt, Pd, and Ru exhibit excellent catalytic performance in the hydrochlorination of acetylene. Hutching et al. discovered a significant positive correlation between the catalytic activity of metal ions and the corresponding standard electrode potential, and predicted that Au would have high catalytic performance. Subsequently, more and more research has focused on Au-based catalysts. The research mainly focuses on improving the catalytic activity and stability of Au-based catalysts by adding metal promoters such as Cu, Li, Ni, Bi, and Sn to promote the dispersion of active components.

[0005] Although gold-based catalysts exhibit good catalytic activity and stability, the scarcity of gold reserves, high cost, and difficulty in recovery pose significant obstacles to their industrial application. Ru-based catalysts, with their low cost and high catalytic activity, have become a new research hotspot in recent years. Zhu et al. compared the reaction energy barriers of HgCl2, AuCl3, and RuCl3 catalyzed acetylene hydrochlorination using DFT calculations, finding that the Ru catalyst had the lowest reaction energy barrier (9.1 kcal / mol), indicating that Ru-based catalysts may be the optimal catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination. To improve the catalytic activity and stability of ruthenium-based catalysts, modifications are commonly found in literature and patents. For example, patent CN103894195A discloses a Ru-Bi bimetallic catalyst for acetylene hydrochlorination, with a ruthenium loading of 1%, a Ru:Bi molar ratio of 0.5, and an acetylene space velocity (GHSV(C2H2)) of 36 h⁻¹. -1 With a C(C2H2) / HCl ratio of 1:1.15 and a temperature of 140°C, the acetylene conversion rate is 99%, the selectivity for vinyl chloride is greater than 99%, and the acetylene conversion rate remains greater than 95% even after 300 hours of continuous operation. However, the catalyst has a high Ru loading and the acetylene space velocity is too low, making it not very economically viable.

[0006] Patent CN201910844596.6 describes a method for preparing a ruthenium-based catalyst for the acetylene hydrochlorination reaction modified by combining ammonium oxalate and phosphoric acid. This method involves adding the auxiliary agents ammonium oxalate and phosphoric acid, and then reacting the catalyst at T = 150℃ and GHSV(C2H2) = 552h. -1 Under the conditions of V(C2H2) / V(HCl) = 1:1.15, the catalytic activity of the 0.08% Ru-10% NCO-4% P / A catalyst was tested. The acetylene conversion reached 75.9%, and the selectivity for vinyl chloride production was 99.24%. However, when the ruthenium loading was 0.05%, the acetylene conversion was only 34.6%, and the vinyl chloride selectivity was 99.22%. This catalyst has an extremely low ruthenium content, but the acetylene conversion is low, which does not meet the requirements for industrial production.

[0007] Patent CN114146727A describes the preparation of a highly active ruthenium-based catalyst. This is achieved by modifying an activated carbon support with ammonium polyphosphate, embedding phosphorus into the activated carbon framework, and integrating the CP framework with the noble metal Ru. 3+ A synergistic effect occurs during the reaction, enhancing the catalyst's activity. Furthermore, the addition of PVP, 3-hydroxy-2-pyrrolidone, and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium diammonium salt as ligands forms strong bonds with the active components, improving the catalyst's adsorption of HCl and effectively inhibiting Ru... 3+ The reduction. This catalyst (ruthenium chloride content 2%) was used at T = 180℃ and GHSV(C2H2) = 180h. -1V(C2H2) / V(HCl)=

[0008] Catalytic performance tests were conducted under a 1:1.08 ratio, and the conversion rate of acetylene reached 93.5%, with a selectivity of 99.5% for the formation of vinyl chloride. After 300 hours, the conversion rate was 92.1%. This catalyst exhibits high catalytic activity and stability, but its preparation process involving support modification and ligand addition is overly complex, and the high metal loading also limits its industrial application.

[0009] Although some progress has been made in the research of Ru-based catalysts, the reported Ru-based catalysts generally have high loading levels, which significantly reduces their cost advantage compared to gold-based catalysts. Therefore, the development of ultra-low content Ru-based catalysts is of great significance for their industrial application prospects. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The technical problem solved by this invention is to provide a method for the hydrochlorination of acetylene to vinyl chloride using an ultra-low ruthenium-based catalyst. The innovation of this method lies in modifying the activated carbon support with triethyl phosphite as a phosphorus source and optimizing the catalyst synthesis steps to prepare a catalyst with ultra-low ruthenium content, high activity, and good stability. The ruthenium loading is 0.05% at a reaction gas space velocity of 170 h⁻¹. -1 V (C2H2) / V (HCl) With a ratio of 1:1.05 and a reaction temperature of 180℃, the acetylene conversion rate can reach 82%, the vinyl chloride selectivity is greater than 99%, and the activity remains basically unchanged after 8 hours, providing a unique and effective solution for the low-cost and high-efficiency production of vinyl chloride in industry.

[0011] To solve the technical problem of this invention, the proposed technical solution is as follows: a method for using an ultra-low content ruthenium-based catalyst in a fixed-bed acetylene hydrochlorination reaction to produce vinyl chloride, wherein the preparation method of the ultra-low content ruthenium-based catalyst includes the following steps:

[0012] (1) Preparation of precursor solution: Weigh 0.2780g of ruthenium trichloride (RuCl3) solid and dissolve it in 10ml of distilled water. Shake until the RuCl3 is completely dissolved, and then make up to 50ml of brown round bottom flask to obtain RuCl3 stock solution, Ru: 2.7070mg / ml;

[0013] (2) Preparation of phosphorus-modified carbon support: Weigh 3g of activated carbon and place it in a beaker containing 25mL of deionized water. While stirring at room temperature, add 1.5mL of glacial acetic acid for 30min. Measure 25mL of deionized water, weigh 1.36g of triethyl phosphite (phosphorus source), and 1.5mL of hydrogen peroxide (mass concentration 30%). Add them to the beaker in sequence and stir continuously at room temperature in the dark for 24h. Filter and dry in an oven at 90℃ for 12-24h. In a tube furnace, maintain a nitrogen flow rate of 50mL / min and calcine at a heating rate of 5℃ / min to 900℃ for 1h to obtain phosphorus-modified carbon support.

[0014] (3) Catalyst preparation by impregnation method: Take 1.2g of phosphorus-modified carbon support obtained in step (2) and spread it evenly in a mortar; take 222ul of ruthenium precursor solution obtained in step (1), add it to pure water to prepare 2.4ml solution, and uniformly drop it onto the phosphorus-modified carbon support, so that the final ratio of phosphorus-modified carbon support / g: solution / ml is 1:2. Grind the catalyst thoroughly in a clockwise direction until the surface is smooth. The mass ratio of ruthenium to support in the catalyst is 0.05:99.95.

[0015] (4) Place the ground catalyst in a forced-air drying oven and dry for 12-24 hours.

[0016] (5) The prepared ruthenium-based catalyst was used in the fixed-bed acetylene hydrochlorination reaction to produce vinyl chloride.

[0017] Preferably, in step (1), distilled water is used as the solvent. An appropriate amount of ruthenium trichloride (RuCl3) solid is dissolved in distilled water at room temperature, shaken for 10 min using a mixer, and then sonicated for 30 min to prepare a RuCl3 stock solution of 2.7070 mg / ml. The solution is then sealed and stored at low temperature in the dark.

[0018] Preferably, the activated carbon in step (2) is one or more of the following: untreated 200-mesh wood-based activated carbon, coconut shell activated carbon, and coal-based activated carbon.

[0019] Preferably, the activated carbon in step (2) is in the form of columnar, powdered, or flake-shaped particles with a particle size of 200 mesh and a specific surface area of ​​1000-1200 m². 2 / g.

[0020] Preferably, the mass ratio of the modifier to activated carbon in step (2) is 1wt%-10wt%, and the theoretical phosphorus loading is 4wt%.

[0021] Preferably, the catalyst after grinding in step (3) should have a smooth surface and then be dried in a 90°C forced-air drying oven.

[0022] Preferably, the specific steps are as follows:

[0023] (1) Filling the catalyst: Place a layer of quartz wool with a thickness of 10 mm in the middle of a quartz reaction tube with a diameter of 10 mm, add the catalyst into the reaction tube and ensure that the catalyst is flat, and then place another layer of quartz wool with a thickness of 10 mm.

[0024] (2) Before the reaction: The entire pipeline was purged with N2 at a flow rate of 20 mL / min for 60 min to remove air and moisture from the system. At the same time, the temperature was controlled, increased to 150℃ at 5℃ / min and held for 30 min, and then increased to 180℃ at 5℃ / min. Then, HCl was introduced at a flow rate of V = 20 mL / min and held for 30 min. Subsequently, the reaction gas was introduced at a flow rate of V(C2H2) = 16 mL / min and V(HCl) = 16.8 mL / min and held for 10 min to ensure that the catalyst was in a gaseous atmosphere of acetylene and hydrogen chloride. Then, the reaction gas flow rate was reduced to a ratio of V(C2H2) / V(HCl) = 1:1.05 and held at the reaction flow rate for 10 minutes before online monitoring began.

[0025] (3) After the reaction: The gaseous product is first passed through an absorption bottle containing NaOH solution to remove excess HCl, and then analyzed online by gas chromatography to evaluate the acetylene conversion rate and selectivity to vinyl chloride.

[0026] Beneficial effects:

[0027] This invention provides a method for preparing an ultra-low content ruthenium-based catalyst. Compared with other methods, this method significantly reduces preparation costs, simplifies operation, and is scalable. The technical solution adopted in this invention involves modifying the support with one or more of the following activated carbon surface modifiers: P1 = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphine)butane, P2 = hydroxyethylidene diphosphonic acid, P3 = triphenylphosphine, P4 = phosphoric acid, P5 = diammonium hydrogen phosphate, P6 = tetraphenylphosphine bromide, P7 = diphenylphosphonic acid, P8 = ethylenediaminetetramethylenephosphonic acid, P9 = phenylphosphonic acid, P10 = nitrilotrimethylenephosphonic acid, P11 = triphenyl phosphonate, and P12 = triethyl phosphonite. Water is chosen as the solvent, and the Ru content in the catalyst is significantly reduced, thus preparing an ultra-low content ruthenium-based catalyst with phosphorus-modified carbon as the support. This effectively saves production costs. The catalyst prepared by this invention exhibits excellent catalytic performance for the hydrochlorination of acetylene and is suitable for industrial production.

[0028] (1) The catalyst uses phosphorus-modified activated carbon as a support, ruthenium as the main active component, and water as a solvent. By rationally controlling the optimal ratio of phosphorus-modified carbon support to solvent: support / g: solution / ml = 0.5, the synthesis steps were improved to enhance the efficiency of the catalyst.

[0029] (2) The support used in this invention: One or more of the following are selected as the phosphorus source modified activated carbon: 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphine)butane, hydroxyethylidene diphosphonic acid, triphenylphosphine, phosphoric acid, diammonium hydrogen phosphate, tetraphenylphosphine bromide, diphenylphosphonic acid, ethylenediaminetetramethylenephosphonic acid, phenylphosphonic acid, nitrotrimethylphosphonic acid, triphenyl phosphonate, and triethyl phosphonite. Under the same conditions, phosphorus-modified carbon support can stabilize the active center, improve catalytic activity, and reduce the deactivation rate by changing the electronic environment of activated carbon. Through numerous experiments, triethyl phosphonite is preferred as the support used in this invention. The ruthenium loading is 0.05% at a reaction gas space velocity of 170 h⁻¹. -1 V (C2H2) / V (HCl) With a ratio of 1:1.05 and a reaction temperature of 180℃, the acetylene conversion rate can reach 82%, the vinyl chloride selectivity is greater than 99%, and the activity remains basically unchanged after 8 hours, providing a unique and effective solution for the low-cost and high-efficiency production of vinyl chloride in industry.

[0030] Compared with existing technologies: First, the modifier selected in this invention is non-toxic, harmless, and inexpensive; second, the amount of modifier used in this invention is small, and the utilization rate is high, thus the modification cost is lower than other technologies. In summary, the method of this invention significantly improves the catalytic activity and stability of the catalyst by improving the phosphorus modification process of the support. Compared with unmodified activated carbon, the synthesis method in this technology can exhibit excellent catalytic activity and can be used for industrial applications.

[0031] (3) In step (2) of the present invention, the nitrogen flow rate is kept at 50 mL / min, and the temperature is raised to 900℃ for calcination at a rate of 5℃ / min for 1 h to obtain phosphorus-modified carbon support.

[0032] (4) In step (3) of the present invention, the catalyst is ground until smooth in a clockwise direction within 10 minutes, and then placed in a 90°C forced-air drying oven for drying. Grinding to smoothness in a short time can reduce the contact between the catalyst and air at room temperature and improve the loading rate and dispersion of the active components.

[0033] (5) Among them, 0.05% Ru / P12AC catalyzes the reaction at an acetylene space velocity of 170 h⁻¹. -1 At T=180℃, the conversion rate of acetylene is 82%, the selectivity of vinyl chloride is 99%, and the activity remains basically unchanged within 8 hours. Attached Figure Description
