Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalysis, and particularly relates to a propane oxidative dehydrogenation single-atom system catalyst, its preparation method, and a method for producing propylene. Background Technology
[0002] Propylene is a raw material for the production of high-value-added chemicals such as polypropylene. In recent years, the rapid rise of the shale gas industry has led to an increase in propane production, providing profit margins and economic value for the propane dehydrogenation to propylene reaction.
[0003] Direct propane dehydrogenation to propylene offers the advantage of high selectivity and is widely used in industry. However, this process is limited by thermodynamic equilibrium, is strongly endothermic, and requires a significant external heat of reaction. Therefore, the reaction typically proceeds at high temperature and low pressure, under which the catalyst rapidly deactivates due to carbon buildup. In contrast, oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (ODHP) to propylene is not limited by thermodynamic equilibrium and is exothermic, allowing it to proceed at relatively low temperatures. Furthermore, oxygen effectively mitigates catalyst carbon buildup. Consequently, oxidative dehydrogenation of propane has received widespread attention from both academia and industry in recent years.
[0004] Catalysts for the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propylene include various transition metal oxides, such as vanadium (ACS Catal., 2015, 5, 5787–5793), molybdenum (J. Mol. Catal. A, 2014, 392, 315), and chromium (Journal of Catalysis, 2017, 356: 197-205), as well as hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) (Science, 2016, 354: 1570-1573) and S-1 molecular sieves supporting B single-atom sites, and Pt / Al2O3 core-In2O3 shell catalysts prepared by atomic layer deposition. However, due to the peroxidation that produces CO during the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane... x The product yield still makes the propylene yield uneconomical. Among them, h-BN can achieve a propylene conversion of 14% and a propylene selectivity of 79%, while the Pt / Al2O3 core-In2O3 shell catalyst has a propylene conversion of 32% and a propylene selectivity of 70%. The propylene selectivity gradually decreases with reaction time, and both Pt and In2O3 in the Pt / Al2O3 core-In2O3 shell catalyst are dispersed as nanoparticles.
[0005] Therefore, optimizing the composition of the catalyst, the synthesis method of the catalyst, and the structure of the catalyst to construct an excellent catalyst for the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane to propylene and obtain an economically valuable propylene yield remains a huge challenge.

[0209] As can be seen from Examples 13-20 and Comparative Example 5, adding a certain amount of other promoters, such as Ru, Co, Ce, and Cu, to 3Pd / 3Pt-10In / Al2O3 can improve its catalytic activity. Taking copper as an example, when the copper loading in the catalyst is 3% to 4%, its catalytic activity can be further improved. When the palladium loading is 0.1% and the copper loading is 5%, the catalytic activity is actually reduced compared to not adding copper.
