Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of high-value conversion of residual sludge, in particular to a method for synchronously converting oil and fat and polysaccharide in residual sludge to obtain high-value liquid fuel, and more particularly to a method for synchronously converting oil and fat and polysaccharide in residual sludge to obtain high-value liquid fuel, which uses an external acid and internal alkali bifunctional catalyst as a catalyst and takes residual sludge in a sewage plant as a substrate, catalyzes the conversion of oil and fat in the residual sludge into FAMEs, and the conversion of polysaccharide in the residual sludge into ML to realize the co-production of high-value liquid fuel. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the amount of sewage produced in the world is huge every year, and the amount of sludge, as the "twin brother" of sewage, is also huge. The sludge has a large water content, occupies a large area for landfill disposal, and improper disposal can cause secondary pollution problems such as landfill leachate. The sludge has a complex composition, mainly including various types of organic matter, microorganisms, inorganic particles, colloids and other substances, and is easy to breed bacteria and emit odor. In the prior art, the sludge can be resourcefully utilized by composting fermentation and building material utilization, but the composting treatment is not thorough and is easy to cause secondary pollution, and the building material utilization may have environmental and human risks, and the existing resourceful treatment and disposal cannot achieve fine conversion of potential substrates in the sludge into high-value products. Therefore, how to properly dispose of the sludge is still a big problem in the treatment of municipal solid waste.

[0003] The residual sludge contains a large amount of free fatty acids (FFAs) and has a water content of up to 99%. In addition, the residual sludge also contains polysaccharides and cellulose and other components with resource conversion potential. The oil and fat and polysaccharides in the residual sludge can be catalytically converted to obtain biodiesel and methyl levulinate (ML), respectively. The existing resource conversion method for the treatment and disposal of residual sludge obtains relatively rough products, ignores the fine utilization of the sludge, does not achieve valuable material recovery, and fails to utilize the functional molecules in the sludge. Some studies on the catalytic conversion of cheap sludge to obtain high-value and expensive products are also limited to the utilization of a single component such as oil and fat, and the resource conversion and utilization of the sludge is not complete, and the recovery amount of high-value products is not high. Therefore, it is of great significance to synchronously convert the FFAs, oil and fat and polysaccharides and other components with resource conversion potential in the residual sludge for utilization, which is of great significance for the treatment of sludge.

[0004] Biodiesel is a clean and efficient new energy, and large-scale application can effectively alleviate the energy crisis, reduce people's dependence on fossil fuels, and gradually attract widespread attention. The main component of biodiesel is fatty acid methyl ester (FAMEs), which is usually obtained by esterification or transesterification of fatty acids and oil and fat as substrates with methanol under the action of an acid or alkali catalyst. However, the presence of a large amount of FFAs in the catalytic system will cause poisoning of the alkali catalyst, thereby reducing the catalytic efficiency and affecting the separation of the product.

[0005] Methyl levulinate (ML) is an important platform compound, which is a short-chain ester containing fatty acids. It has potential applications, such as being used as a fuel additive to improve the performance of diesel and petroleum, and has the advantages of good low-temperature fluidity, high lubricity, stable flash point, non-toxicity and non-corrosion. ML is mainly synthesized by using hexose as a substrate, methanol as a solvent, and acid-base catalysts for synergistic catalysis.

[0006] In view of the problems of difficult recovery of liquid catalysts, limited catalytic performance of solid acid or base catalysts, and the like, researchers have developed a solid acid-base bifunctional catalyst to solve the above problems. However, the solid catalyst with coexisting organic acid sites and organic base sites is less common, and the organic acid sites and organic base sites of the conventional solid catalyst are spatially separated and disordered, and there is a problem of poor synergistic effect.

[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to use a new method to simultaneously convert residual sludge oil and polysaccharides to obtain high-value liquid fuel. SUMMARY

[0008] In view of the problem that the prior art has not realized efficient co-production of biodiesel and ML from residual sludge, the present application provides a method for simultaneously converting residual sludge oil and polysaccharides to obtain high-value liquid fuel.

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0010] The present application provides a method for simultaneously converting residual sludge oil and polysaccharides to obtain high-value liquid fuel, comprising the following steps:

[0013] Further, the mass ratio of methanol to residual sludge is 27-157, and the amount of the double-layer acid-base catalyst is 25%-100% of the mass of the residual sludge.

[0014] Further, the temperature of the high-temperature catalytic reaction is 170-190 DEG C, and the reaction time is 16-24 h.

[0015] Preferably, the double-layer acid-base catalyst is a double-layer acid-base catalyst with an outside-acid-inside-base Thistle structure, in which acid sites exist in the outer layer and base sites exist in the inner layer.

[0016] Further, the preparation method of the double-layer acid-base catalyst is as follows:

[0017] Preparation of opal structure by using SiO2 ball as template;

[0018] Synthesis of photolysis amino protecting group;

[0019] Outer layer etching of opal structure and occupation of outer layer etching space by aminoethanethiol to obtain single layer ball;

[0020] Inner layer etching of single layer ball and occupation of inner layer etching space by photolysis amino protecting group to obtain double layer ball with structure of chrysanthemum;

[0021] Ultraviolet irradiation of double layer ball with structure of chrysanthemum to make photolysis amino protecting group in double layer ball with structure of chrysanthemum deprotection to provide alkaline site-NH2;

[0022] Oxidation of aminoethanethiol on outer layer of double layer ball with structure of chrysanthemum after ultraviolet irradiation to expose acidic site-SO3H of double layer ball with structure of chrysanthemum to obtain double layer acid-base catalyst.

[0023] Further, the method for preparing opal structure is as follows:

[0024] Preparation of SiO2 nanoball by using tetraethyl orthosilicate, anhydrous ethanol, ammonia water and water, specifically, adding tetraethyl orthosilicate into anhydrous ethanol to mix uniformly to obtain mixed liquid a; wherein the volume ratio of tetraethyl orthosilicate and anhydrous ethanol in the mixed liquid a is 1:5;

[0025] Adding ammonia water and water into anhydrous ethanol to mix uniformly to obtain mixed liquid b; wherein the volume ratio of ammonia water, water and anhydrous ethanol in the mixed liquid b is 1:3:10;

[0026] Heating the mixed liquid b to 35-45℃, adding the mixed liquid a into the heated mixed liquid b to stir to obtain milky white suspension;

[0027] Centrifuging and precipitating the milky white suspension, drying and calcining under the condition of 550-650℃ to obtain SiO2 nanoball;

[0028] Adding the SiO2 nanoball into mixed liquid containing methyl methacrylate solution, N-propyleneoxysuccinimide, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate solution, dimethyl sulfoxide and 2-hydroxy-2-methylpropiophenone and irradiating by ultraviolet light to obtain opal structure.

[0029] Further, the method for synthesizing photolysis amino protecting group is as follows:

[0030] Adding 6-nitroacetaldehyde and sodium borohydride into anhydrous ethanol to mix uniformly, removing anhydrous ethanol to obtain solid product I;

[0031] The solid product I and 1,1'-carbonyl diimidazole are added into CH2Cl2, and the reaction is completed to obtain product II;

[0032] Ethylene diamine is added into product II, and the reaction is completed, washed, and rotary evaporated to obtain the photolytic amino protecting group.

[0033] Further, the opal structure is etched by using a 10v% HF solution to etch the outer layer and the single layer sphere.

[0034] Further, the aminoethyl mercaptan of the outer layer of the chenopodium structure double-layer sphere is oxidized to expose the acid site-SO3H of the chenopodium structure double-layer sphere.

[0035] Further, the mass yield of the FAMEs can reach 96.5%, and the mass yield of the ML can reach 12.4%. Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0036] The method uses residual sludge as a substrate, mixes a double-layer acid-base catalyst and methanol with the residual sludge to obtain a residual sludge co-production mixture, and performs high-temperature catalytic reaction on the residual sludge co-production mixture to obtain FAMEs and ML, thereby realizing the synchronous conversion of residual sludge oil and polysaccharide to obtain high-value liquid fuel. In view of the high content of free fatty acids in the sludge, the method uses a double-layer acid-base catalyst to ensure that the acid-base double sites can independently and efficiently play a role in the preparation of FAMEs, thereby avoiding poisoning of the alkali catalytic site, and the acid-base synergistic catalysis can accelerate the conversion of polysaccharide to ML. The method realizes the catalytic conversion and utilization of sludge in the form of high-value liquid fuel. The method is simple and easy to operate, and uses residual sludge from a sewage plant as a substrate to co-produce high-value liquid fuel, thereby improving the value of the resource conversion of the residual sludge, providing a new way for the rationalization of the treatment and disposal of urban solid waste sludge, and having important significance for the resource utilization of residual sludge.

[0037] The double-layer acid-base catalyst in the method is prepared by taking SiO2 ball as a template to prepare a protein structure, and performing inner and outer etching on the protein structure; a photo-cleavage amino protecting group (NVOC) is synthesized, aminoethyl mercaptan is used to occupy the outer etching space, and the photo-cleavage amino protecting group is used to occupy the inner etching space, so as to obtain a double-layer ball with a chrysanthemum-like structure; finally, ultraviolet irradiation is performed to remove the photo-cleavage amino protecting group in the inner part of the double-layer ball with the chrysanthemum-like structure, to provide an alkaline site -NH2, and the aminoethyl mercaptan on the outer part of the double-layer ball with the chrysanthemum-like structure is oxidized, to expose an acid site -SO3H. The method is simple, and the reaction condition is mild. The double-layer acid-base catalyst prepared by the method has a layered structure similar to a chrysanthemum, so that organic acid sites and organic base sites exist in the same space and are arranged in an orderly manner inside and outside. Therefore, neutralization reaction does not occur, so that the organic acid and base sites can play a high-efficiency catalytic role respectively. The outer part is designed to have a water-resistant sulfonic acid group as an acid site, which helps to prolong the service life of the catalyst. Meanwhile, the spatial separation of the organic acid and base sites can avoid poisoning caused by the reaction of a large amount of FFAs with the base catalytic site. The acid site in the outer part can ensure that the FFAs in the sludge are first subjected to esterification reaction to convert the FFAs into biodiesel, and can convert the triglyceride in the sludge into biodiesel through transesterification reaction. The base site in the inner part can efficiently catalyze the conversion of the triglyceride into FAMEs when the amount of FFAs is greatly reduced, so as to improve the mass yield. The synergistic effect of the acid site and the base site can also efficiently catalyze the conversion of polysaccharide in the sludge into ML, so as to realize the spatial separation and orderly arrangement of the organic acid and base sites, ensure that the acid and base sites can synergistically play a high-efficiency role, and realize the value-added utilization of the co-production of liquid fuel from the residual sludge.
