Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a nanofiber catalyst for SO2 to sulfur production, its preparation method, and its application, belonging to the field of flue gas resource utilization and treatment. Background Technology
[0002] With the advancement of industrialization and urbanization, environmental issues have received increasing attention, with industrial flue gas emissions being a significant source of pollution. Flue gas emitted during industrial production contains a large number of pollutants, among which sulfur dioxide emissions pose a particularly serious threat to the environment and human health. When sulfur dioxide is released into the atmosphere, it contributes to smog. Sulfur dioxide reacts with oxygen and water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid, leading to acidic deposition that affects ecological balance and crop yields. Furthermore, sulfur dioxide is an irritant gas; long-term exposure to high concentrations can cause respiratory diseases. Therefore, controlling sulfur dioxide emissions from industry is a crucial measure for protecting the environment and safeguarding human health.
[0003] Although sulfur dioxide in flue gas is a pollutant, it is also a potential resource. Through resource utilization, waste sulfur dioxide can be converted into valuable chemicals, achieving the goal of transforming waste into valuable resources and helping to reduce air pollutant emissions and protect the environment. Resource utilization of sulfur dioxide can produce chemical products such as sulfur, sulfuric acid, hydrogen sulfide, and elemental sulfur, meeting the needs of industrial production. Among the many methods for resource utilization of sulfur dioxide flue gas, catalysts for reducing sulfur dioxide to sulfur using carbon monoxide have advantages such as high reaction rate, good selectivity, strong stability, and excellent environmental performance. Therefore, the development of highly efficient new catalytic materials has attracted much attention from researchers and is of great significance for the resource utilization of sulfur dioxide flue gas. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to promote the resource utilization of sulfur dioxide flue gas. The catalyst of this invention is a metal composite oxide catalyst prepared by a template method. The template in the preparation process is a mixture of carbon fiber hollow tubes and carbon nanospheres, and the final catalyst material is a metal composite oxide. In the catalyst design, using wood to prepare carbon fiber hollow tubes can reduce the preparation cost and improve the feasibility of large-scale fiber preparation. During the wood preparation process, high-concentration hot alkaline and hot acid solutions are used to treat hemicellulose, which is easily hydrolyzed and degraded. This removes non-fiber impurities from the wood and improves the hollowness and permeability of the fibers, which is beneficial for the subsequent loading of active components. High-speed ball milling in a ball mill can break the wood fibers into short-range ordered micro-nano structures. Then, the wood fibers are carbonized in a high-temperature nitrogen atmosphere to form carbon nanofiber hollow tubes, which significantly increases the specific surface area of the template material and provides more sites for the attachment of active components. Grapes are hydrothermally converted into carbon nanospheres and loaded onto carbon nanofibers to prepare a catalyst template. The loaded carbon nanospheres further increase the specific surface area of the template, and under hydrothermal conditions, functional groups such as hydroxyl groups are introduced into the material surface, which is beneficial for the loading of active components. Furthermore, microwave calcination can remove glucose and other impurities that were not completely converted during hydrothermal treatment, and can also further improve the bonding strength between the hollow tubes of carbon nanofibers and carbon nanospheres, preventing the nanospheres and nanofibers from not sticking together during the later loading of the active component. Finally, the active component is loaded onto the prepared template by hydrothermal treatment. Under high temperature and high pressure conditions, the adhesion performance of the active component is better, and its adhesion amount is also greater. Therefore, after the template material is removed by high-temperature calcination, the active component per unit mass of the catalyst is maximized, and a high-performance catalytic material is finally obtained.
[0005] This invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: This invention discloses a method for preparing a nanofiber catalyst for SO2 to sulfur production. The catalyst uses a mixture of carbon nanospheres and hollow carbon nanofiber tubes as a template, manganese oxide and cerium oxide as active components, and cobalt oxide as a co-catalyst. The catalyst preparation process first involves carbonizing wood into hollow carbon nanofiber tubes, then loading carbon nanospheres onto the hollow carbon nanofiber tubes to form a template, followed by a hydrothermal method to achieve the bonding between the template and the active components, and finally removing the template by high-temperature calcination to obtain the pure active component catalyst.

[0010] (2) Preparation of catalyst template
[0011] The carbon nanofiber hollow tubes prepared in step (1) were added to a glucose aqueous solution and subjected to a hydrothermal reaction. After the hydrothermal reaction was completed, microwave calcination was performed to finally obtain the catalyst template.
[0012] Loading of active components and removal of template
[0013] Manganese nitrate, cerium nitrate, and cobalt nitrate were dissolved in deionized water to form an active component precursor solution. The template material obtained in step (2) was then added to the precursor solution and subjected to a hydrothermal reaction. After the reaction was completed, the solution was transferred to a muffle furnace for high-temperature calcination to remove the template and finally obtain the catalyst.
[0014] In the above preparation method: the wood mentioned in step (1) is a cylindrical apricot or peach wood with a diameter of 4-6 mm and a height of 20-25 mm.
[0015] In the above preparation method: the hot alkaline solution mentioned in step (1) is a 10-15 mol / L NaOH solution at 60℃-70℃, and the immersion time is 1h-2h.
[0016] In the above preparation method: the hot acid solution mentioned in step (1) is a 7-9 mol / L H2SO4 solution at 50℃-60℃, and the immersion time is 3h-5h.
[0017] In the above preparation method: the sieve used in step (1) is 150-250 mesh.
[0018] In the above preparation method: the calcination temperature in step (1) is 600℃~800℃, the calcination time is 5~6h, and the nitrogen gas introduction rate is 20~40mL / min.
[0019] In the above preparation method: the mass ratio of the carbon nanofiber hollow tube to glucose in step (2) is (5-7):(2-3);
[0020] Preferably, the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction in step (2) is 160℃~190℃, and the time of the hydrothermal reaction is 12h~16h;
[0021] Preferably, the microwave roasting furnace described in step (2) has a microwave power of 1 to 5 kW, a microwave roasting temperature of 800°C to 900°C, a microwave roasting time of 15 to 30 min, and is in a nitrogen atmosphere of 30 to 60 ml / min.

[0026] A nanofiber catalyst for the production of sulfur from SO2, which is prepared by the method described above.
[0027] In the technical solution of this invention, the catalyst is used in the catalytic reduction of sulfur dioxide by carbon monoxide to sulfur.
[0028] Beneficial effects:
[0029] (1) The catalyst can catalytically reduce SO2 to sulfur at a lower temperature, and the raw materials are cheap and readily available, which is conducive to large-scale engineering preparation.
[0030] (2) During the hydrothermal reaction of glucose with carbon nanofiber hollow tubes, glucose undergoes oxidation and cleavage reactions, generating hydroxyl (-OH) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups containing hydroxyl groups. These functional groups increase the hydrophilicity of the carbon nanotube surface, which can effectively improve the dispersibility of carbon nanotubes and make them more stable in the solution. This promotes the loading of active components under hydrothermal conditions in subsequent steps, making the loading of active components more uniform and the loading binding force stronger.
[0031] (3) Microwave radiation generates an electromagnetic field, which excites the vibration and rotation of molecules inside carbon materials, increasing the intermolecular distance. This facilitates the rearrangement of atoms or molecules on the surface, forming new surface defects and promoting the placement of carbon nanotubes. At the same time, microwave calcination can also cause local temperature gradient changes in carbon materials, leading to local pressure changes and applying force to the surface structure of the material, thereby strengthening the bond between hollow tubes and carbon nanospheres in carbon nanofibers.

[0054] Example 3
[0055] (1) Preparation of carbon nanofiber hollow tubes
[0056] Twenty cylindrical apricot wood pieces, each 6 mm in diameter and 25 mm in height, were immersed in 500 ml of a 15 mol / L NaOH solution and kept at a constant temperature of 70°C for 2 hours. After immersion, the material was rinsed with deionized water until the rinse water was neutral.

[0059] (3) Loading of active components and removal of template
[0060] 10g of manganese nitrate, 20g of cerium nitrate and 10g of cobalt nitrate were dissolved in 50g of deionized water to form an active component precursor solution. Then, 35g of the template material obtained in step (2) was added to the precursor solution and transferred to a hydrothermal reactor for hydrothermal reaction at 220℃ for 5h. After the reaction was completed, the material was transferred to a muffle furnace and calcined at 600℃ for 10h to remove the template component and obtain the catalyst.
[0061] (4) Catalyst activity test
[0062] The sulfide catalyst obtained by the above method was applied to the reaction of CO catalytic reduction of SO2 to produce sulfur. The amount of catalyst was 1 mL, the total gas flow rate was 500 mL / min, which contained 0.25% SO2, 0.5% CO, and the remainder was N2. The reaction temperature was 250-400℃. A heating belt was set at the tail end of the quartz tube and the temperature was kept constant at 120℃. The sulfur vapor passed through the heating belt with other tail gases and entered the cold hydrazine to become solid, and the sulfur was collected.
[0063] Comparative Example 1
[0064] (1) Catalyst preparation: Except for the alkaline leaching and acid leaching in step (1) which are carried out at room temperature without heating, the other conditions are the same as in Example 1.
[0065] (2) Activity Test: The catalyst dosage was 1 mL, the total gas flow rate was 500 mL / min, containing 0.25% SO2, 0.5% CO, and the remainder N2. The reaction temperature was 250–400 °C. A heating belt was installed at the tail end of the quartz tube, and the temperature was kept constant at 120 °C. Sulfur vapor, along with other tail gases, passed through the heating belt and entered the cold hydrazine, where it solidified and was collected. The catalyst's efficiency in converting SO2 to sulfur is evaluated in [reference needed]. Figure 1 .
[0066] (3) Comparative effect: Without heating and alkaline leaching, the catalyst showed a maximum SO2 conversion rate of only 57.3% in the catalyst activity test within the temperature range of 250-400℃. This was mainly because the hemicellulose in the wood could not be effectively decomposed and some other impurities in the wood were difficult to separate or dissolve, resulting in insufficient separation of wood fibers. In the subsequent carbonization process, it was also difficult to form hollow carbon nanofiber tubes, resulting in insufficient specific surface area of the catalyst template and insufficient attachment sites for active components, leading to a decrease in catalyst activity.
[0067] Comparative Example 2
[0068] (1) Catalyst preparation: Except for step (2), which does not involve microwave calcination, the catalyst is prepared by calcining the material in a nitrogen atmosphere using a conventional tube furnace. Other conditions are the same as in Example 2.
[0069] (2) Activity Test: The catalyst dosage was 1 mL, the total gas flow rate was 500 mL / min, containing 0.25% SO2, 0.5% CO, and the remainder N2. The reaction temperature was 250–400 °C. A heating belt was installed at the tail end of the quartz tube, and the temperature was kept constant at 120 °C. Sulfur vapor, along with other tail gases, passed through the heating belt and entered the cold hydrazine, where it solidified and was collected. The catalyst's efficiency in converting SO2 to sulfur is evaluated in [reference needed]. Figure 1 .
[0070] (3) Comparative Results: Without microwave calcination, the catalyst template showed a maximum SO2 conversion rate of only 61.5% in the catalyst activity test within the temperature range of 250–400℃. This is mainly because the bonding force between the carbon nanofiber hollow tubes and carbon nanospheres is relatively weak after hydrothermal treatment. Heating in a conventional tube furnace can lead to uneven heating, causing the carbon nanofiber hollow tubes and carbon nanospheres to crack and break during calcination due to uneven heating, ultimately resulting in a decrease in catalyst activity.
[0071] Comparative Example 3
[0072] (1) Catalyst preparation: Except for the impregnation method used in step (3) to load the active component onto the template, the other conditions are the same as in Example 3;
[0073] (2) Activity Test: The catalyst dosage was 1 mL, the total gas flow rate was 500 mL / min, containing 0.25% SO2, 0.5% CO, and the remainder N2. The reaction temperature was 250–400 °C. A heating belt was installed at the tail end of the quartz tube, and the temperature was kept constant at 120 °C. Sulfur vapor, along with other tail gases, passed through the heating belt and entered the cold hydrazine, where it solidified and was collected. The catalyst's efficiency in converting SO2 to sulfur is evaluated in [reference needed]. Figure 1 .
[0074] (3) Comparative results: The active component was loaded onto the template using the impregnation method. In the catalyst activity test, the highest catalytic conversion rate of SO2 was only 52.1% in the temperature range of 250-400℃. This is mainly because the active component lost the high temperature and high pressure driving conditions of hydrothermal conditions, the loading of the active component on the template decreased, and after the template was removed by calcination, the mass per unit volume of the active component of the catalyst decreased, which ultimately led to the decrease in the activity of the catalyst.
