Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of coal / petrochemical technology, specifically relating to a germanium-modified catalyst for catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkane chains, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0003] Coal indirect liquefaction (Fischer-Tropsch synthesis) is an important measure to achieve clean and efficient utilization of coal. However, this technology produces a large amount of straight-chain alkanes, which have low value. How to convert them into high-value light aromatic hydrocarbons has always been a goal pursued by scientists. Efficient and stable catalysts play a central role in alkane reforming technology. Traditional Pt reforming catalysts rely on halogenation (Cl... - Using alumina as a support, the selectivity for aromatic hydrocarbons in the aromatization of medium- and long-chain alkanes (n-C6, n-C7) is low, and the proportion of C1-C4 byproducts in hydrogenolysis is high (approximately 40%). Furthermore, Cl... - It is prone to leakage during the reaction, which can corrode equipment, cause blockages, and contaminate the final product. Meanwhile, to maintain the high dispersion of the active metal and reduce the carbon deposition rate, a continuous supply of Cl is required. - This catalyst is added to the reaction system to maintain dynamic equilibrium. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop green, efficient, highly aromatic, and long-life catalysts that are compatible with the long-chain alkane reforming process in coal-to-oil products.
[0004] Pt / zeolite catalytic systems can be prepared by loading noble metal Pt onto KL, HZSM-5, Hβ, and HY zeolites for the catalytic reforming of alkanes. These catalysts can improve the aromatization activity and selectivity of n-C6 to n-C9 alkanes. To further improve catalytic performance, scientists added catalytic promoters to the Pt / zeolite catalysts. However, the inventors found that using conventional techniques to load noble metal Pt and promoters resulted in poor dispersion of Pt within the zeolite, difficulty in controlling the placement of Pt, and the inability of the promoters to enter the zeolite framework, thus leading to poor final catalytic performance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To overcome the above problems, this invention provides a germanium-modified catalyst for catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes, its preparation method, and its application.
[0006] To achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] The first aspect of this invention provides a method for preparing a germanium-modified catalyst for catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes, comprising:
[0008] (1) The germanium source was dispersed in the first solvent, and then the molecular sieve support was immersed in the solution. After standing at room temperature, the solvent was removed and then calcined to obtain the Ge-modified molecular sieve support.
[0009] (2) The Ge-modified molecular sieve support is dispersed in a second solvent to obtain a suspension. The suspension is uniformly coated on the substrate surface, dried, and then transferred to a reaction chamber for pulse deposition and purging of the noble metal source. Then, pulse deposition and purging of the oxidant are performed. The pulse deposition and purging of the noble metal source and the oxidant are repeated to obtain the germanium-modified catalyst for the catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes.
[0010] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a germanium-modified catalyst for catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes prepared by the above-described preparation method.
[0011] A third aspect of the present invention provides the application of the above-mentioned germanium-modified catalyst for catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes in the preparation of aromatic hydrocarbons by catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes.
[0012] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a method for the catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes to prepare aromatic hydrocarbons, comprising:
[0013] Using a fixed-bed or moving-bed reactor, the aforementioned germanium-modified catalyst for catalytic reforming of C3-C9 alkanes is used to mix C3-C9 alkanes under hydrogen-exposed or non-hydrogen-exposed conditions.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0015] (1) Adding germanium source using conventional impregnation method facilitates the entry of Ge atoms into the molecular sieve framework, thereby enabling Ge atoms to perform isomorphic substitution of molecular sieve framework atoms to construct noble metal adsorption sites with specific structures. Introducing noble metals into the molecular sieve cage for anchoring enhances the interaction between the noble metal and the molecular sieve support, improving its stability. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) can control the growth and placement of noble metal particles, solving the problem of controlling the placement of noble metals using conventional impregnation method. It also improves the dispersibility of noble metal particles, prevents their aggregation, enhances catalyst stability, and extends catalyst lifespan. Furthermore, Ge has a relatively mild effect on the electronic structure regulation of Pt; Ge can quench unpaired electrons in Pt-Ge metal clusters for deep dehydrogenation of olefins, effectively improving catalytic activity and product selectivity.
[0016] (2) The present invention uses a combination of impregnation and atomic layer deposition to prepare catalysts. The catalysts obtained by this method have better performance than those prepared by a single method in the catalytic dehydrogenation cyclization reaction of alkanes to prepare aromatics. Ge significantly modifies the active metal, inhibits the occurrence of hydrogenolysis reaction, especially inhibits C1-C4 byproducts, improves the selectivity of target aromatics to more than 90%, significantly reduces carbon deposition, and extends catalyst life, which has good prospects for industrial application.
