Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of molecular sieve preparation and waste gas treatment, and specifically relates to a low-temperature denitrification catalyst resistant to SO2 poisoning and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Nitrogen oxides (NO) x NO is one of the main air pollutants. x NO emissions not only contribute to acid rain and harm the environment, but also enter the lungs, causing bronchial diseases or emphysema, seriously damaging health. Therefore, reducing NO emissions is crucial. x Emissions have become one of the most urgent and important tasks in the prevention and control of air pollution.
[0003] Selective catalytic reduction of ammonia (NH3-SCR) is currently the most widely used flue gas denitrification technology globally, and its core lies in the denitrification catalyst. Among existing denitrification catalysts, such as V2O5-WO3 / TiO2, they can effectively meet the needs of medium- and high-temperature flue gas denitrification scenarios. Furthermore, heteroatom molecular sieve-based catalysts exhibit good denitrification capabilities for low-temperature flue gas (<250 ℃) from non-power industries such as steel, cement, chemicals, and glass. However, heteroatom molecular sieve-based catalysts are highly susceptible to SO2 during low-temperature flue gas denitrification, leading to the loss of redox capabilities at their metal active sites and the formation of ammonium sulfate that clogs their pores. This hinders the contact between NH3 and NO and the catalytic active centers, resulting in SO2 poisoning and deactivation of the heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitrification catalyst. This is a key reason why heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitrification catalysts cannot be widely commercially applied in low-temperature denitrification. Therefore, improving the sulfur resistance of heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitrification catalysts is currently a focus of widespread attention.
[0004] In recent years, to enhance the sulfur resistance of heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitration catalysts, numerous methods for improving their sulfur resistance have been extensively studied. The most effective method is to introduce sacrificial agents (such as Ce, Fe, and Zn) onto the surface of the catalyst, allowing them to preferentially react with SO2 and thus preventing the active sites of the catalyst from contacting SO2, thereby improving the sulfur resistance of the catalyst. However, the introduced sacrificial system can be completely consumed by SO2, failing to meet the requirements for long-term commercial applications. Therefore, the SO2 poisoning problem of heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitration catalysts has not yet been effectively solved. Therefore, developing a heteroatom molecular sieve-based catalyst capable of converting SO2 into a catalyst that promotes low-temperature denitration reactions is of great practical significance and industrial value for achieving its long-term commercial application. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a low-temperature denitrification catalyst resistant to SO2 poisoning and its preparation method. A free radical generation system is introduced onto the surface of the heteroatom molecular sieve-based catalyst, enabling it to convert sulfur dioxide, which is detrimental to the NH3-SCR reaction, into a favorable component that promotes the reaction, thereby improving the sulfur resistance of the heteroatom molecular sieve-based catalyst in the low-temperature NH3-SCR reaction.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0007] A method for preparing a low-temperature denitration catalyst resistant to SO2 poisoning includes the following steps:
[0008] 1) Deionized water, alkali source, silicon source, aluminum source, copper source and template agent were added sequentially to 100 mL of polytetrafluoroethylene liner, mixed evenly, aged at 30~80℃ for several hours, and then transferred to constant temperature oven for crystallization at 120~180℃ for 1~9 days. After crystallization, the solid product was filtered, washed and dried, and finally calcined at 500~700℃ for 1~6 h to obtain Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve.
[0009] 2) Constructing a free radical generation system on the surface of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve: First, the surface of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve is functionalized, and then hydrazine hydrate, nitrate and chloride are added in sequence. The mixture is stirred in a water bath and the solid product is collected to obtain the free radical site-Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve denitration catalyst.
[0010] Furthermore, the addition amount of each reaction raw material is controlled so that the molar ratio range is: 1 SiO2: 0.01~0.2 Al2O3: 0.1~2 Na2O: 100~500 H2O: 0.05-0.2 Cu: 0.01-0.3 template agent: 0.01~0.1 nitrate: 0.01~0.2 chloride: 0.1-2 hydrazine hydrate.
[0011] Further, the alkali source is sodium hydroxide; the silicon source is one or a mixture of several of kaolin, silica sol, sodium metasilicate, and sodium aluminosilicate; the aluminum source is one or a mixture of several of kaolin, rettore, sodium metasilicate, and aluminum chloride; the copper source is one or a mixture of several of copper nitrate, copper chloride, and copper sulfate; and the template agent is one or a mixture of several of adamantane, tetraethylenepentamine, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, and ethylenediamine.
[0012] Furthermore, the nitrate is one or a mixture of zinc nitrate, zirconium nitrate, manganese nitrate, tantalum nitrate, and silver nitrate; the chloride is one or a mixture of boron chloride, lithium chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, zinc chloride, and calcium chloride.
[0013] Furthermore, the treatment reagents used for the surface functionalization treatment of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieves are one or a mixture of several of cetyl ammonium bromide, hexamethylenetetrammonium, ethanol, and copper polyvinylpyrrolidone.
[0014] Furthermore, the method for surface functionalization of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve is as follows: Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve powder is ultrasonically dispersed in ethanol or water / ethanol mixture, then a treatment reagent is added, and the mixture is continuously stirred at 55~65 ℃ for 5.5~6.5 h.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0016] 1. This invention constructs a free radical generation system on the surface of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve by adding hydrazine hydrate, nitrate, and chloride. This system can convert SO2, which is detrimental to denitration reactions, into sulfate species beneficial to low-temperature denitration. These sulfate species promote the formation of denitration reaction intermediates on the surface of the Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve catalyst, thereby improving the low-temperature denitration efficiency of the catalyst. This method pioneers a new strategy for improving the sulfur resistance of heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitration catalysts. Compared with existing technologies, this invention is completely different from existing design concepts and can effectively overcome the problem of insufficient sulfur resistance in the long-term commercial application of heteroatom molecular sieve-based denitration catalysts, enabling their widespread commercial application.
[0017] 2. Compared with existing denitrification catalyst sulfur-resistant technologies, the free radical site-Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve denitrification catalyst prepared by this method can transfer SO2 molecules out of the NH3-SCR reaction system at the molecular level. SO2 does not form sulfate and ammonium salts with the denitrification active center, free radical site and ammonia. At the same time, SO2 molecules synergistically promote the low-temperature denitrification reaction of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve catalyst during the transfer process.
[0018] 3. The radical site-Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve denitrification catalyst prepared by this method has excellent N2 selectivity and low-temperature sulfur resistance. At 125~300 ℃, the N2 selectivity is higher than 99% and the NO conversion rate is higher than 95%. In addition, the catalyst also has good hydrothermal stability. Attached Figure Description

[0040] Evaluation of the low-temperature sulfur resistance and denitrification performance of Cu-SSZ-13 molecular sieve catalyst with free radical sites
[0041] The catalysts prepared in Examples 1-7 were evaluated for their sulfur resistance and denitrification activity in a fixed-bed reactor.

The catalyst particle size was 20-40 mesh, the reaction temperature was 125-300 °C, the reaction mixture consisted of SO2, NO, NH3, O2 and equilibrium gas N2, and the gas flow rate was 400 mL / min.
