Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chemical degradation technology, and particularly relates to a method for synthesizing a temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst and its application in lignin conversion. Background Technology

[0002] Faced with severe climate change and depleted fossil fuel reserves, the importance of finding sustainable and renewable energy sources has been widely recognized. In recent years, lignocellulose, as the most abundant renewable energy source on Earth (approximately 1.55 × 10⁻⁶), has emerged as a promising alternative. 11 Its annual dry matter production of tonnes makes it the preferred alternative to traditional fossil fuels.

[0003] Lignin, the most abundant renewable aromatic hydrocarbon resource on Earth, is an amorphous polymer composed of phenylpropane units linked by carbon-carbon and ether bonds. As a substitute for petrochemical materials, it has enormous potential for producing high-value chemicals such as phenolic monomers. It is a complex phenolic polymer formed from three alcohol monomers (p-coumarol, coniferyl alcohol, and sinapyl alcohol). Due to its three-dimensional network structure, suitable carbon-hydrogen ratio, and the availability of numerous active phenolic hydroxyl groups, rigid benzene rings, and carbonyl groups, lignin has been considered a material with adsorption, biomass combustion, anti-aging, and antioxidant properties. As the only biomass resource in nature containing a benzene ring, lignin has great potential for conversion into aromatic or cycloalkanes for use in liquid fuels.

[0004] However, the stubborn and complex structure of lignin makes the utilization of lignocellulose extremely difficult. In recent years, a "lignin-first" strategy has been widely recognized as the first and crucial step in the efficient conversion of biomass resources. The key to this technology is the effective and selective cleavage of the CO bonds on aryl ethers, while avoiding the formation of C-C bonds after CO bond cleavage, which would lead to lignin re-condensation, thus obtaining highly selective lignin monomers for utilization. In this process, finding the most suitable catalyst and depolymerization process has become a hot topic in lignin depolymerization. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the problems of low yield and oxidative degradation of lignin using single heteropolyacid catalysts, this invention proposes a method for synthesizing a temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst and its application in lignin conversion.

The solution was stirred at 80 °C for 6 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the insoluble molybdate and vanadate were removed by filtration. The resulting polyacid solution was evaporated in a water bath at 85 °C for 24 hours to obtain orange-yellow crystals H5PMo. 11 Al 0.5 V 0.5 O 40 Weigh out H5PMo 11 Al 0.5 V 0.5 O 403.54 g (2 mmol) was dissolved in 10 mL of water to obtain H5PMo 11 Al 0.5 V 0.5 O 40 Solution; Weigh 0.28 g (2 mmol) of choline chloride (Ch) and dissolve it in 10 mL of water.

The product after rotary evaporation was then extracted with dichloromethane and distilled water to obtain the organic phase. Anhydrous magnesium sulfate was added to remove excess water, and the dichloromethane was evaporated by a second rotary evaporator to obtain the lignin oil product.

[0023] Furthermore, in the method for degrading lignin using a temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst, the mass ratio of lignin to the temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst is 2:1.

[0024] Furthermore, in the method for degrading lignin using a temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst, the reaction temperature between lignin and the temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst is 140–160 °C, and the reaction time is 120–240 min. The reaction between lignin and the temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst is carried out under stirring conditions at a speed of 400–600 rpm.

[0025] Furthermore, in the method for degrading lignin using a temperature-controlled heterogeneous heteropolyacid catalyst, the reaction solvent is methanol or methanol / water, where methanol / water refers to a mixed solvent of methanol and water. When the reaction solvent is a mixed solvent of methanol and water, the volume ratio of methanol to water is 8:2 or 6:4.
