Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of catalysts for preparing light hydrocarbons from synthesis gas and preparation techniques, and in particular to a high mesopore ratio catalyst for preparing olefins from synthesis gas, a preparation method and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] Preparation of olefins from synthesis gas by one-step method is a new emerging catalytic process, and is the latest technology and industrial direction at home and abroad. Its main advantage lies in that synthesis gas can be manufactured from coal, natural gas, biomass, diesel and other hydrocarbons. The one-step method for preparing olefins omits the methanol synthesis reactor, the high-energy consumption methanol refining unit and the large-scale reactor for synthesizing olefins from methanol, so that the highest temperature point and the highest pressure point of the process are significantly reduced, and the process has the development potential of short flow, low consumption, low investment and good intrinsic safety.

[0003] Analysis of the reaction process of preparation of olefins from synthesis gas by one-step method shows that the reaction process couples the two processes of preparation of methanol from synthesis gas and preparation of olefins from methanol. Therefore, the heat release of the reaction is very large. Moreover, the whole process is operated at high pressure. Therefore, more fixed bed forms are selected for preparation of olefins. However, traditional fixed bed catalysts, such as composite catalysts combining metal oxides and molecular sieves, and metal supported catalysts (active components include carbides, metals or metal oxides), have the phenomenon that the internal temperature of the catalyst is significantly higher than the temperature of the outer surface of the catalyst or the temperature of the gas phase main body of the bed. Under the premise of multifunctional integration of the catalyst, the absolutely high internal temperature and the internal-external temperature difference are not conducive to the long-term stable use of the catalyst.

[0039] The technologies, methods and devices known to those skilled in the relevant art can not be discussed in detail, but under appropriate circumstances, the technologies, methods and devices should be regarded as part of the present application.

[0040] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the use of the words "first", "second" and the like to qualify elements is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding elements, and the above words have no special meaning unless otherwise stated, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the scope of protection of the present application.

[0041] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0042] In a first aspect, the application provides a catalyst with high mesopore rate for synthesizing olefins from syngas, which comprises an active component, an alkaline additive and a carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, wherein the active component and the alkaline additive are uniformly dispersed in the interior and on the surface of the catalyst structure, and the mesopore rate of the catalyst is 30%-60%.

[0043] In specific implementation, in view of the large specific surface area of graphene in the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, the active component and the alkaline additive are mainly dispersed on the graphene, and the carbon nanotube network mainly plays the effect of electrical conductivity and heat conduction. The carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid can be obtained by chemical vapor deposition process or chemical solution method, or can be prepared by mechanical mixing method, which is not limited here. It should be noted that in the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, the volume ratio of graphene to carbon nanotube is 1:10-10:1. The graphene itself is graphene containing through holes, the number of layers is 1-4 layers, the area ratio of the through holes is 1-3% of the area of the graphene, and the pore size of the through holes is 0.5-2 nm. The graphene with through holes can be prepared by controlling the density and pore size of the through holes on the template. The diameter of the carbon nanotube is 0.5-5 nm. The mass percentage of the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid in the catalyst is 25%-47%.

[0044] In specific implementation, the catalyst contains 25%-47% of the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, and the rest is the active component and the alkaline additive. The carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, the active component and the alkaline additive are closely combined, the active component and the alkaline additive are mainly distributed on the surface of the graphene sheet structure, and form a point-like cross-interacting structure with the carbon nanotube network structure. And the graphene surface is distributed with a large number of through holes, creating a large number of mesopores in the catalyst interior, strengthening the heat transfer effect, and can conduct the heat in the catalyst interior to the outside in time, eliminating the potential internal high temperature, reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the catalyst to within 0.5℃, improving the operation life of the catalyst, and prolonging the action time of high olefin selectivity. Further, due to the advantage of large aspect ratio of carbon nanotubes, the carbon nanotubes existing in the catalyst can effectively wrap the active phase particles, which can significantly improve the overall strength of the catalyst and reduce the abrasion rate of the catalyst under large flow rate.

[0045] In specific embodiments, the active component has a particle size of 2-12 nm and accounts for 50-65% of the mass of the catalyst. The active component can be selected from one or more of iron carbide, molybdenum carbide, cobalt carbide, gold, copper, zinc, iron, chromium, and ferric oxide. Preferably, the active component consists of 60-65% iron carbide, 1-5% chromium, and 30-35% ferric oxide, and accounts for 55-60% of the mass of the catalyst.

[0046] In specific embodiments, the basic auxiliary agent accounts for 3-20% of the mass of the catalyst. The basic auxiliary agent can be one or more of sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium type oxygen-containing compounds. Preferably, the basic auxiliary agent is one or a combination of two of sodium nitrate, potassium nitrate, magnesium nitrate, sodium bicarbonate, basic calcium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and calcium hydroxide.

[0047] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a catalyst for the synthesis of olefins from synthesis gas, Figure 1 A flow chart of the method for preparing a catalyst for the synthesis of olefins from synthesis gas according to an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1.

[0048] S1, adding the active component and the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid to the basic auxiliary agent precursor solution, stirring at 25-50°C for 2-10 hours, then increasing the temperature to 80-120°C and continuing to stir until the viscosity of the slurry reaches 1000-2000 mPa·S;

[0049] S2, extruding the slurry into a strip with a diameter of 2-6 mm, transferring the strip to an environment at 350-450°C for calcination for 1-24 hours, and obtaining the catalyst for the synthesis of olefins from synthesis gas after cooling.

[0050] In specific embodiments, the active component, the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, and the basic auxiliary agent precursor solution are first stirred at 25-50°C until they are fully mixed and uniform, then the temperature is increased to 80-120°C and the stirring is continued to remove water, and after the viscosity of the slurry reaches 1000-2000 mPa·S, the slurry is extruded into a strip and calcined, and the catalyst for the synthesis of olefins from synthesis gas is obtained after cooling. This preparation scheme has the advantages of easy operation and low cost. Furthermore, this preparation scheme does not limit the amount of active component loaded on the carbon nanotube-graphene hybrid, thereby breaking the limitation of the amount of active component loaded on the existing carrier and enabling the preparation of a catalyst for the synthesis of olefins from synthesis gas that is suitable for a larger operating space velocity.

[0051] In some embodiments, the basic auxiliary agent precursor solution is prepared by dissolving a basic auxiliary agent in deionized water.

[0052] In a third aspect, the present application provides a use of the catalyst for synthesizing olefins from synthesis gas according to the first aspect, Figure 2 A flow chart of the use of the catalyst for synthesizing olefins from synthesis gas provided by the present application is shown in FIG. 2, which comprises the following steps: Figure 2

[0054] S22, under preset reaction conditions, the mixed gas reacts under the action of the catalyst to obtain olefins.

[0055] In a specific implementation, the present application uses an axial fixed bed or a radial fixed bed as a reactor for synthesizing olefins from synthesis gas, loads the catalyst and sets the preset reaction conditions as follows: the gas pressure in the reactor is 2-4 MPa; the temperature in the reactor is 280-400 ℃; the mass space velocity of the catalyst in the reactor is 1-10 h -1 Then the mixed gas of hydrogen and carbon monoxide is introduced to prepare olefins, and when the conversion rate of carbon monoxide is 65 %-95 %, the selectivity of olefins is 75 %-90 %.
