Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a catalyst for catalyzing the reaction of methanol and isobutene to prepare isoprene, and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the field of petrochemical industry or biomass platform compound conversion. Specifically, a catalyst for catalyzing the reaction of methanol and isobutene to prepare isoprene at a relatively low temperature, with high methanol conversion rate, high isoprene selectivity and good stability, and a preparation method and application thereof are provided. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a very important chemical raw material, isoprene has a wide application in rubber, latex, pharmaceutical and pesticide intermediates, and fine chemical synthesis. At present, the main method for preparing isoprene in industry is to separate the by-product C5 fraction produced in the process of steam cracking of naphtha to produce ethylene, but this method is based on fossil resources, and the process flow is complex and the energy consumption is high. At present, fossil resources are rapidly consumed and face depletion, which is not conducive to the sustainable development of human society. High-purity isoprene can be produced by Prins condensation reaction of formaldehyde and isobutene. Formaldehyde can be prepared by methanol oxidation reaction, and biomass conversion can produce methanol; the other reactant isobutene can be obtained from biomass-based isobutanol, or directly from biomass. Therefore, the Prins condensation reaction to produce isoprene is a sustainable route.
[0003] There are one-step and two-step methods for preparing isoprene by Prins reaction. Among them, the two-step method refers to that formaldehyde and isobutene first undergo Prins condensation on an acidic catalyst to generate 4,4-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane (DMD), and then DMD is decomposed on another acid catalyst to generate isoprene. This route has high complexity and high energy consumption, and it is difficult to realize industrial scale production. The one-step method is that formaldehyde and isobutene directly generate isoprene in a fixed bed reactor. At present, solid acid catalysts such as molecular sieves, oxides, phosphates and heteropoly acids are mainly used for preparing isoprene by one-step method. However, the solid acid catalysts are easy to form carbon deposition, which leads to the reduction of reaction activity and stability. In addition, the main problem of one-step method is the source of formaldehyde. At present, the main sources of formaldehyde are paraformaldehyde and formaldehyde aqueous solution. Paraformaldehyde needs to be dissolved in an organic solvent and is relatively expensive. Formaldehyde aqueous solution has high requirements for catalyst water resistance. In addition, formaldehyde has a low boiling point (-19.5℃), is not environmentally friendly and is toxic, which leads to high transportation cost. High-concentration formaldehyde is easy to self-aggregate into a solid, which seriously affects the process and causes huge economic losses. Therefore, considering all the above-mentioned adverse factors, it is urgent to find an alternative source of formaldehyde.
[0004] In view of this, the present application proposes to use CH3OH / O2 as a substitute for formaldehyde to react with isobutene to produce isoprene in a one-step method on a composite metal oxide catalyst in a fixed bed reactor. SUMMARY

The reaction results are shown in Table 2. Figure 2
[0088] Figure 1 For the reaction performance comparison of different composite metal oxides at a reaction temperature of 200 ℃, it can be seen that the methanol conversion rate on the 2Mo-Fe-O is low, and there is more CO x in the product, resulting in a low isoprene selectivity. The methanol conversion rate and the isoprene selectivity of the composite metal oxides after adding metals are different, and the isoprene selectivity is obviously improved. Among them, after adding La, the isoprene selectivity of the 2Mo-Fe-0.1La-O is increased to about 90%, and the methanol conversion rate is increased from about 60% to about 80%. In addition, the methanol conversion rates of the 2Mo-Fe-0.1Ce-O, 2Mo-Fe-0.1V-O and 2Mo-Fe-0.1W-O catalysts are obviously improved, while the addition of other metals is not very obvious in improving the methanol conversion rate, and the conversion rate is increased to about 67% after adding Y, Sm, Yb, Co and Al.
[0089] The optimum addition of metal La is determined, Figure 2 The reaction performance of 2Mo-Fe-La-O catalysts with different La contents at a reaction temperature of 210°C was compared. As shown in the figure, a small amount of La has a great influence on the reaction activity. When the La content increases from 0.01 to 0.1, the methanol conversion rate increases from ~80% to ~89%, and the isoprene selectivity increases from ~74% to 92%, indicating that the addition of La is beneficial to the conversion of methanol and promotes the Prins reaction of formaldehyde and isobutene. When the La content continues to increase, the methanol conversion rate does not change significantly, and the CO x selectivity increases, resulting in a decrease in isoprene selectivity.

[0092] The stability evaluation experiment of the 2Mo-Fe-0.1La-O catalyst obtained in Example 1 for preparing isoprene from methanol and isobutene was carried out in a continuous flow fixed bed experimental device.

After the pretreatment was completed, the catalyst was used for the reaction of preparing isoprene from methanol and isobutene, the reaction temperature was 200°C, the reaction pressure was 2 MPa, the molar ratio of methanol to isobutene was 1:5, the reaction atmosphere was 30 mL / min of 15% O2 / N2 mixed gas, the methanol mass space velocity was 2.4 g CH3OH / h cat. . The reaction results are shown in Table 1. Figure 3
[0093] Figure 3 The stability evaluation of the composite metal oxide 2Mo-Fe-0.1La-O catalyst was carried out. After 55 h of continuous reaction, the methanol conversion rate slowly decreased to ~85%, and the isoprene selectivity slowly decreased to ~88%, indicating that the catalyst has certain stability.
[0094] 4. XRD analysis of different catalysts
[0095] Example 26

It is recorded as 2Mo-Fe-O. The test results are shown in Table 2. Figure 4
[0097] Example 27
[0098] XRD tests were carried out on 0.5 g of each catalyst in Examples 1-12, under the following conditions: tube voltage 40 kV, tube current 100 mA, ray source Cu Ka, scanning speed 10° / min, scanning range 2θ = 10-60°. Respectively, 2Mo-Fe-xM-O. The test results are shown in Table 1. Figure 4
[0099] Figure 4 are XRD patterns of different catalysts. Mo-Fe-O oxides are composed of two phases of MoO3 and Fe2(MoO4)3, and exist as their respective phases. As can be seen from the XRD, after adding metals, the composition and proportion of the two phases have changed, especially after adding La, V, Ce, W, the intensity of MoO3 and Fe2(MoO4)3 two phases has been significantly enhanced, especially in 2Mo-Fe-0.1La-O, the intensity of MoO3 and Fe2(MoO4)3 two phases has been significantly increased, which indicates that the increase of MoO3 and Fe2(MoO4)3 phases, the active sites for methanol oxidation to formaldehyde, may improve the methanol conversion rate, so that the catalyst has higher catalytic activity at lower temperature.
