Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst preparation, specifically relating to a catalyst supported on modified silicon carbide, its preparation method, and its application in the dehydrogenation of propane to propylene. Background Technology

[0002] Propylene and other low-carbon olefins are the cornerstone of organic chemicals, widely used in the production of polypropylene, acrylonitrile, propylene oxide, and other high-value-added chemicals. Currently, propylene is mainly derived from the catalytic cracking and steam cracking of naphtha, as well as the coal-based methanol-to-olefins route. However, this route suffers from problems such as the co-production of multiple olefins, high energy consumption, and large carbon emissions. With the increasing demand for propylene in the chemical market, propylene consumption is gradually increasing, and traditional production processes can no longer meet market demands. In recent years, propane dehydrogenation to propylene has become an important route for increasing propylene production. This process uses alumina-supported Pt as a catalyst. However, the presence of acidic sites on the alumina support easily leads to side reactions such as cracking, polymerization, and cyclization, resulting in increased carbon deposition and rapid catalyst deactivation. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop non-acidic or weakly acidic supports to improve the propane dehydrogenation performance of Pt-based catalysts.

[0003] Silicon carbide (SiC) has a non-acidic surface and excellent thermal and chemical stability, making it a common support in catalysis for strongly exothermic reactions, such as catalytic combustion. However, the inert surface of the SiC support makes it difficult to effectively disperse the active component, resulting in the presence of large-sized Pt particles. This leads to low utilization of the active component. For example, literature reports on SiC-supported Pt-based catalysts applied to reactions such as nitrogen oxide combustion and hydrogen combustion (Appl. Catal., A, 2004, 266, 21-27; Appl. Catal., B, 2017, 201, 391-399) show that the support surface contains significant large-sized Pt particles. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned technical challenges by providing a catalyst supported on modified silicon carbide, its preparation method, and its application in the dehydrogenation of propane to propylene. The catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic activity and anti-carbon deposition properties in the propane dehydrogenation process, and its preparation process is simple, with low production costs and environmental friendliness, resulting in significant social and economic benefits. Compared with traditional catalysts, the silicon carbide catalyst prepared by this invention possesses catalytic characteristics such as high propane conversion rate, high propylene selectivity, and strong anti-carbon deposition ability, showing promising prospects for industrial application. The catalyst provided by this invention uses modified silicon carbide as a support and a low content of the precious metal platinum as the active component.

[0016] In step (b), the processing gas includes two or more of nitrogen, argon, helium, and oxygen; the processing temperature is 600-1100℃; and the processing time is 0.5-6 hours.

[0017] A method for preparing a catalyst supported on modified silicon carbide includes the following steps:

[0018] (a) Dissolve a platinum-containing compound in water or an alcohol solvent to obtain a platinum precursor salt solution;

[0019] (b) The platinum precursor salt solution obtained in step (a) is impregnated onto the modified silicon carbide support, dried, calcined, and reduced to obtain a catalyst with modified silicon carbide as the support.

When applied to the catalytic dehydrogenation of propane to propylene, the catalyst exhibits high propane conversion, high propylene selectivity, and strong resistance to carbon deposition, demonstrating promising industrial application prospects.
