Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of zeolite molecular sieve catalysts, specifically to a modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] The processes used in the petrochemical and coal chemical industries to produce ethylene and propylene often generate large amounts of C4 / C5 olefins as byproducts. Olefins catalytic cracking (OCC) technology can convert these low-value-added byproducts into ethylene and propylene, promoting integrated refining and chemical production, connecting and supporting coal chemical processes, and improving carbon resource utilization and technological competitiveness. In recent years, olefin cracking using H-ZSM-5 molecular sieves as catalysts has become an important technological route for efficiently utilizing light hydrocarbon resources to produce high-value-added basic organic feedstocks. Further improving catalyst activity and diene selectivity is a major challenge for OCC technology. The reactant / product molecule diffusion pathways determined by the complex pore structure network of H-ZSM-5 molecular sieves have a significant impact on catalytic performance. Therefore, precisely controlling the molecular sieve diffusion pathway is a key challenge for further improving catalytic efficiency.
[0003] For a long time, intracrystalline diffusion behavior in molecular sieve catalysts has been considered the rate-determining step dominating the diffusion pathway. Our research group previously conducted a series of exploratory studies on how to regulate the intracrystalline diffusion pathway of ZSM-5 molecular sieves and improve the catalytic performance of OCC. The results showed that reducing grain size or creating hierarchical porous structures can effectively shorten the intracrystalline diffusion distance of molecular sieve catalysts, reduce intracrystalline diffusion resistance, and significantly improve their catalytic efficiency. Furthermore, due to the anisotropic diffusion of molecules within the channels of ZSM-5 molecular sieves, constructing molecular sieve morphologies with specific crystal faces and channel exposure can also improve diene yields. However, in reality, guest molecules also face diffusion resistance at the interface before entering the microporous channels. Researchers (Nature Mater., 2016, 15, 401-406) used microscopic imaging to study the diffusion of guest molecules in molecular sieves and found that as the adsorption and desorption processes proceeded, the concentration of probe molecules near the outer surface of the zeolite crystals showed a significant jump compared to the concentration at final equilibrium. Fan et al. (Langmuir, 2013, 29, 13943-13950) found that after nano-sizing MFI molecular sieves, the actual measured diffusion coefficient was lower than the theoretical value, and the calculated diffusion distance of the microporous configuration was longer than the molecular sieve grain size. These anomalies are mainly attributed to the increased surface diffusion resistance of guest molecules on the molecular sieve. Surface diffusion resistance is a crucial and significant factor affecting the diffusion path of molecular sieves, and it is widely present in various molecular sieve systems. However, there is currently a severe lack of strategies for controlling the surface diffusion resistance of ZSM-5 molecular sieves, and the impact of surface diffusion resistance on the catalytic performance of molecular sieves is even more unclear.
[0004] Therefore, it is crucial to find ways to improve the surface diffusion resistance of ZSM-5 molecular sieves. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the problems of high surface diffusion resistance of ZSM-5 molecular sieves in existing technologies, such as low diene selectivity and short catalyst lifetime in olefin catalytic cracking reactions to ethylene and propylene, this invention provides a modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. This catalyst, when applied to olefin catalytic cracking technology, can effectively eliminate the surface diffusion resistance of ZSM-5 molecular sieves, thereby improving its catalytic efficiency, reaction lifetime, and ethylene and propylene selectivity.
[0006] The first aspect of this invention provides a method for preparing a modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst, comprising the following steps:

[0017] Furthermore, in step (3), the mass ratio of the acid solution to the ZSM-5 molecular sieve in the liquid-solid mixture obtained in step (2) is 0.01:1 to 2:1, preferably 0.03:1 to 1:1.
[0018] Further, the conditions for the modification reaction in step (3) are as follows: the reaction temperature is 0 to 100°C and the reaction time is 5 to 60 min; preferably, the reaction temperature is 25 to 50°C and the reaction time is 10 to 30 min.
[0019] Further, the modified liquid-solid mixture described in step (4) can be separated into solids from the obtained mixture by any conventionally known solid-liquid separation method. After solid-liquid separation, washing and drying can be performed. The solid-liquid separation, washing, and drying can be carried out in any manner conventionally known in the art. Specifically, the solid-liquid separation can be performed, for example, by vacuum filtration. The washing can be performed, for example, by using deionized water. The drying temperature is 50–120°C, preferably 80–100°C, and the drying time is 4–24 hours, preferably 8–12 hours. The drying can be carried out under normal pressure or under reduced pressure.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0029] 1. The modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst provided by this invention has a pore structure, crystallinity, acidity, and apparent morphology comparable to the unmodified ZSM-5 molecular sieve. Furthermore, while maintaining a substantially unchanged intracrystalline diffusion rate, the surface diffusion rate of the molecular sieve is significantly improved. When applied to olefin catalytic cracking reactions, it can effectively improve catalytic efficiency, increase the selectivity of target products, improve the yield of target products, extend the reaction lifetime, and reduce the degradation of low-value-added C4 catalysts. 4+ The efficient catalytic conversion of olefin feedstocks has become possible, facilitating industrial production.
[0030] 2. In the catalytic cracking reaction of olefins, there is a lack of methods to regulate the surface diffusion resistance of ZSM-5 molecular sieves. This invention employs an acid modification method to regulate the surface diffusion resistance of high silica-to-alumina ratio ZSM-5 molecular sieves without template removal. By controlling the amount of acid solution and the modification time, the resulting modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve significantly reduces its surface diffusion resistance and improves its catalytic efficiency while maintaining its internal crystal structure and diffusion properties. This provides a new method for regulating the surface diffusion resistance of ZSM-5 molecular sieves. Furthermore, the method of this invention is simple to operate, has low modification costs, and has significant potential for industrial-scale production. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0039] In this invention, XRD was used to determine the crystallinity of the molecular sieve before and after modification. XRD characterization was performed on a Bruker D8 Advance diffractometer. The experimental parameters were: tube voltage 40 kV, tube current 40 mA, Cu(Kα) (λ = 5.1540589 nm). Before testing, the sample was thoroughly ground in a mortar, and scanning was performed at a speed of 1° / min, with a 2θ angle scanning range of 5°–50°.
[0040] In this invention, a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to measure the morphology before and after modification. The TEM used was a Tecnai 20 STWIN, operating at 200 kV.
[0041] In this invention, pyridine infrared spectroscopy was used to determine the acidity of the molecular sieve before and after modification. The pyridine infrared spectroscopy was performed on a Nicolet 6700 infrared spectrometer using an MCT detector and a CaF2 window.
[0042] In this invention, time-resolved in-situ infrared spectroscopy is used in conjunction with the following principles and methods to measure the diffusion performance of different adsorbed molecules on molecular sieve catalysts:
[0043] The testing principle is as follows: When organic molecules are irradiated with infrared light, the chemical bonds or functional groups within the molecules undergo vibrational absorption. Different chemical bonds or functional groups absorb at different frequencies and will occupy different positions on the infrared spectrum, thus providing information about the types of chemical bonds or functional groups present in the molecule. By monitoring the absorption peak area of the molecule on the infrared spectrum, the concentration change of the molecule on the adsorbent can be detected, thereby enabling the measurement of the diffusion performance of the molecule on the molecular sieve catalyst.
[0044] The test method is as follows: Molecular sieve catalyst was pressed into 10mm sheets and placed in an in-situ cell. N2 was introduced, and the mixture was pretreated at 500℃ for 2 hours. The temperature was then lowered to the measurement temperature, and background spectra were collected. Diluted adsorbed molecules were then introduced into the in-situ cell with N2, and the adsorption amount of the molecular sieve was tracked over time until adsorption saturation. Subsequently, pure N2 was introduced, and the desorption amount of the catalyst was tracked over time until complete desorption. The experimental results were fitted according to Fick's first and second laws, using Equations I, II, and III.

[0048] Among them, A t / A (t→∞) It is the ratio of the characteristic peak area of the adsorbed molecule at adsorption time t (in seconds) to that at adsorption equilibrium. D is the ratio of the transient to the final characteristic peak area of the adsorbed molecule during the initial adsorption stage; eff / L 2 The apparent diffusion rate of the molecular sieve catalyst is the overall diffusion flux per unit time and unit distance, expressed in seconds (s). -1 D intra / L 2 The intracrystalline diffusion rate is the diffusion flux within the micropores of a molecular sieve per unit time and distance, expressed in seconds (s). -1 α / L is the surface diffusion rate, which is the surface diffusion flux per unit time and unit distance, and its unit is s. -1 ;D eff D intra Both α and ρ are diffusion coefficients, which represent the amount of substance passing through a unit area per unit time when the concentration gradient is one unit, with units of m. 2 / s; L is the diffusion distance, in meters.
[0049] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below through specific embodiments.
[0050] Example 1
[0051] (1) Weigh 31.25g tetraethyl orthosilicate + 30g tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (25%) + 45g distilled water into a polytetrafluoroethylene-lined tube, mix and stir for 1 hour to obtain mixed solution A; weigh 10g distilled water + 0.1405g aluminum nitrate nonahydrate + 0.6g sodium hydroxide into a polytetrafluoroethylene-lined tube, mix and stir for 1 hour to obtain mixed solution B; then, add solution B to solution A, stir for 1 hour, transfer to a stainless steel crystallization kettle, and crystallize in an oven at 170℃ for 48 hours. After washing, centrifugation, and drying, obtain the untemplated ZSM-5 molecular sieve bulk (Na-ZSM-5-t, silicon-aluminum atomic ratio of 400). After calcination and ammonium exchange, the Na-ZSM-5-t molecular sieve yields the hydrogen-form ZSM-5 molecular sieve bulk (H-ZSM-5-t).
[0052] (2) Weigh 3 grams of the undetemplated ZSM-5 molecular sieve powder (Na-ZSM-5-t) obtained in step (1) and add it to 12 mL of acetone solution. Stir well to obtain a liquid-solid mixture.
[0053] (3) Slowly add 2g of hydrofluoric acid modified precursor solution (hydrofluoric acid mass concentration is 10%, and the ratio of hydrofluoric acid to ZSM-5 molecular sieve is 0.2:3g / g) to the liquid-solid mixture obtained in step (2), and stir at 25℃ for 5min to obtain the modified liquid-solid mixture.
[0054] (4) The modified liquid-solid mixture obtained in step (3) is washed, filtered, dried in an oven at 100°C for 8 hours and calcined in a muffle furnace at 550°C for 6 hours to obtain sodium-type modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve precursor.
[0055] (5) The sodium-type ZSM-5 molecular sieve precursor obtained in step (4) was ion-exchanged with a 1 mol / L ammonium chloride solution at a solid-liquid mass ratio of 1:10 at 80°C for 3 h. The solid was then separated, and the ion exchange was repeated twice in the above manner to obtain the hydrogen-type modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst (H-ZSM-5-F-1).
[0056] Figure 1 XRD characterization results for H-ZSM-5-t and H-ZSM-5-F-1 catalysts. Figure 1 The XRD pattern shows that, compared with the unmodified ZSM-5 molecular sieve (H-ZSM-5-t), the crystallinity and framework structure of the acid-modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve (H-ZSM-5-F-1) obtained in Example 1 did not change significantly, and it can still maintain the typical MFI topology. This indicates that the template agent that was not removed can effectively prevent the destruction of the molecular sieve framework structure by the acid modification process, so that the crystallinity and pore structure of the modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst obtained in Example 1 are consistent with those of H-ZSM-5-t.
[0057] Figure 2 The TEM characterization results of the H-ZSM-5-t and H-ZSM-5-F-1 catalysts are shown. The results indicate that the morphology and pore structure of the acid-modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve (H-ZSM-5-F-1) obtained in Example 1 show significant changes.
[0058] Figure 3 The pyridine infrared spectra of H-ZSM-5-t and H-ZSM-5-F-1 are shown. The results show that the acidity of the molecular sieve remains basically unchanged before and after modification, indicating that the H-ZSM-5-F-1 molecular sieve can maintain its acidic characteristics due to the protection of the template agent.
[0059] The diffusion properties of the molecular sieve catalyst before and after modification were studied using time-resolved in-situ infrared spectroscopy. In-situ infrared spectroscopy testing conditions: test temperature 100℃, nitrogen purging flow rate 800 mL / min, and partial pressure of butene molecules 1 mbar. Results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, compared with H-ZSM-5-t, H-ZSM-5-F-1, while maintaining a consistent intracrystalline diffusion rate, showed a surface diffusion rate that increased from the initial 1.31 s⁻¹. -1 Improved to 2.60s -1 .
[0060] comprehensive Figures 1 to 4 The test results show that the modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst (H-ZSM-5-F-1) obtained in this embodiment can not only maintain its framework structure and intracrystalline diffusion resistance, but also effectively improve its surface diffusion rate.

Then, add solution B to solution A, stir for 1 hour, transfer to a stainless steel crystallization kettle, and crystallize in an oven at 170℃ for 48 hours. After washing, centrifugation, and drying, obtain the untemplated ZSM-5 molecular sieve bulk (Na-ZSM-5-t, silicon-aluminum atomic ratio of 400). After calcination and ammonium exchange, the Na-ZSM-5-t molecular sieve yields the hydrogen-form ZSM-5 molecular sieve bulk (H-ZSM-5-t).
[0079] (2) Weigh 3 grams of the undetemplated ZSM-5 molecular sieve powder (Na-ZSM-5-t) obtained in step (1) and add it to 12 mL of acetone solution. Stir well to obtain a liquid-solid mixture.

[0081] (4) The modified liquid-solid mixture obtained in step (3) is washed, filtered, dried in an oven at 100°C for 8 hours and calcined in a muffle furnace at 550°C for 6 hours to obtain sodium-type modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve precursor.
[0082] (5) The sodium-type ZSM-5 molecular sieve precursor obtained in step (4) was ion-exchanged with a 1 mol / L ammonium chloride solution at a solid-liquid mass ratio of 1:10 at 80°C for 3 h. The solid was then separated, and the ion exchange was repeated twice in the above manner to obtain the hydrogen-type modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst (H-ZSM-5-C-1).
[0083] Compared with the unmodified ZSM-5 molecular sieve (H-ZSM-5-t), the modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve (H-ZSM-5-C-1) obtained in Comparative Example 1 showed no significant changes in crystallinity and framework structure, and could still maintain the typical MFI topology. The acidity of the molecular sieve remained essentially unchanged before and after modification.
[0084] The diffusion properties of the molecular sieve catalyst before and after modification were studied using time-resolved in-situ infrared spectroscopy. In-situ infrared spectroscopy testing conditions: test temperature 100℃, nitrogen purging flow rate 800 mL / min, and partial pressure of butene molecules 1 mbar.

In step (2), the mass of molecular sieve is 1g; in step (3), the mass of modified acid solution hydrofluoric acid is 6g (the mass concentration of hydrofluoric acid is 40%, and the ratio of hydrofluoric acid to ZSM-5 molecular sieve is 2.4:1g / g), the modification temperature is 90℃, and the modification time is 30 minutes. The obtained modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst is denoted as H-ZSM-5-C-3.
[0090] The XRD pattern of H-ZSM-5-C-3 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, although it still possesses a typical MFI structure, its crystallinity is clearly reduced and its framework structure is obviously disrupted; pyridine infrared results indicate that the acidity of the modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve is significantly reduced (see...). Figure 7 The problem may be due to excessively high acid concentration and long reaction time, leading to excessive etching of the silicon atoms on the surface of the molecular sieve by the acid, causing severe damage to the molecular sieve structure. In existing technologies, excessively high acid concentration, excessively high modification temperature, and excessively long modification time result in significant damage to the microporous structure of the molecular sieve, severe loss of active centers, and a significant weakening of the catalytic performance of the modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve.
[0091] Time-resolved in-situ infrared spectroscopy results show that the surface diffusion rate of butene molecules on H-ZSM-5-C-3 is significantly lower than that on H-ZSM-5-t-1, decreasing by 0.5 s⁻¹. -1 .
