Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste plastic upgrading and recycling, and in particular to a method for preparing gaseous fuel by catalytic hydrogenation and pyrolysis of waste polyolefin plastics from FCC waste plastic residue. Background Technology
[0002] To upgrade and recycle waste polyolefin plastics, early methods primarily employed direct pyrolysis and catalytic pyrolysis. Direct pyrolysis utilizes intense heat to break the C-C bonds in polyolefin plastics under catalyst-free and oxygen-free conditions. However, direct pyrolysis involves high reaction temperatures (500–900℃), high energy consumption, and the products are thermodynamically controlled, exhibiting low selectivity and a wide carbon number distribution (C1–C2). 60 The process of converting PE into high-value-added products is difficult. Catalytic pyrolysis, which involves adding catalysts such as zeolite molecular sieves during pyrolysis, reduces the reaction temperature to some extent compared to direct pyrolysis, but still suffers from problems such as easy catalyst carbonization and a wide carbon number distribution in the products. In recent years, hydropyrolysis has attracted widespread attention from scholars because it can significantly reduce the reaction temperature, effectively solve the problem of catalyst carbonization, and reduce the carbon number distribution in the products. However, most of the existing reported hydrolysis catalysts use precious metals such as Pt and Ru as catalytic sites, which are expensive and have significant limitations. Guido Zichittella et al. (JACSAu, 2022, 2, 2259-2268) used Co / ZSM-5 as a catalyst to convert PE into propane-based gaseous products under relatively mild conditions, with a gas yield as high as 95%. However, their reaction required a large amount of ZSM-5, with a ZSM-5 mass ratio of 0.7 to 1.4 to PE. However, the high cost of commercially available ZSM-5 limits the large-scale application of this method. Wei-Tse Lee et al. (Cell Reports Physical Science 2, 100332) prepared a Ru-modified zeolite that can catalyze the conversion of polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene to methane (purity >97%) at 300–350 °C and 5 MPa H₂ pressure. However, the catalyst they used still suffers from excessive cost, with the loading of the precious metal Ru reaching 2.5%. Therefore, developing a low-cost and efficient catalyst is of significant application value for realizing the conversion of polyolefin plastics into high-value products.
[0003] Fully catalyzed cracking catalysts (FCC catalysts) are widely used in secondary petroleum processing. The production of FCC catalysts generates large amounts of wastewater containing significant amounts of suspended solids, which cannot be directly discharged. To ensure compliance with wastewater discharge standards, the suspended solids in the wastewater must undergo sedimentation, filtration, and slag removal processes, resulting in a large quantity of FCC catalyst waste residue (FCC waste residue), primarily composed of Al2O3 and SiO2. my country produces approximately 230,000 tons of FCC catalysts annually, and along with this production, approximately 80,000 tons of FCC waste residue are discharged annually. Currently, FCC waste residue is mainly treated through landfill, a method that leads to severe environmental pollution, economic burden, and resource waste. Using FCC waste residue as a catalyst for the hydrogenation pyrolysis of waste polyolefin plastics can both upgrade and recycle waste polyolefin plastics and promote the resource reuse of FCC waste residue.
[0004] Patent CN202211607465.4 discloses a catalyst for the catalytic cracking of waste plastics and its preparation method. This method involves acid leaching, pore-expansion modification, and loading with metal oxides onto an FCC waste catalyst, which is then used to pyrolyze mixed waste plastics at 500°C to produce liquid fuel. Patent CN202211391419.5 discloses a method for catalytic cracking of polymers using an FCC discharge agent. This method involves alkali treatment and ammonium salt modification of an FCC waste catalyst, followed by pyrolysis of chlorine-containing waste plastics to produce cracked oil. Patent CN201810312024.9 discloses a method for catalytic cracking of polymers using an FCC discharge agent. This method involves grinding, acid washing, high-temperature steam cleaning, or high-temperature calcination of the FCC discharge agent, followed by pyrolysis of waste plastics to obtain cracked oil. The methods described above all use FCC waste catalysts or FCC discharge agents, which are partially deactivated FCC catalysts. They employ catalytic pyrolysis, which requires high temperatures (400-500℃) to achieve a high pyrolysis oil yield (71-86%). Furthermore, the obtained pyrolysis oil is of poor quality and has a complex composition, with the main component being low-value-added heavy oil.
[0005] How to use FCC waste residue, i.e. the waste residue generated during the FCC preparation process, as a raw material to prepare a catalyst? Using the hydropyrolysis method, the gas yield is high at a relatively low reaction temperature, and the main components are high-value propane and butane. This has not been reported in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention aims to provide a method for the catalytic hydrogenation and pyrolysis of waste polyolefin plastics from FCC waste rubber residue to produce gaseous fuels. This invention uses inexpensive and readily available FCC waste rubber residue containing rare earth elements as a catalyst, utilizing rare earth elements (lanthanum, cerium) and iron in the FCC waste rubber as active hydrogenation sites. It achieves efficient catalytic hydrogenation and pyrolysis of waste polyolefin plastics to produce gaseous fuels under relatively low temperature and pressure conditions without the need for loading other metals. This invention is simple to operate and operates under mild reaction conditions, providing a solution for the upgrading and recycling of waste polyolefin plastics.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:
[0008] FCC waste resin containing rare earth elements was dried to constant weight and then calcined in a muffle furnace at 500–600℃ for 4–6 hours. It was then placed in a 1 mol / L ammonium chloride solution and impregnated with stirring at a specific temperature for ion exchange. The impregnated FCC waste resin was repeatedly washed and filtered with hot deionized water, then dried in a forced-air oven. The dried FCC waste resin was then calcined in a muffle furnace at 500–600℃ for 2–4 hours. This process of ammonium chloride impregnation, washing, drying, and calcination was repeated 3–5 times to achieve a high degree of ion exchange, yielding the FCC waste resin catalyst.
[0009] The concentration of the ammonium chloride solution is 0.5–2 mol / L; the ratio of FCC waste glue residue to ammonium chloride solution is 1 g / (5–20) mL; the impregnation temperature is 70–90℃, and the time is 1–2 h.
[0010] The dry-based FCC waste adhesive residue, based on a total mass of 100%, contains 5%–25% Al (calculated as Al2O3), 40%–70% Si (calculated as SiO2), 2%–12% La (calculated as La2O3), 5%–15% Ce (calculated as CeO2), and 0.1%–2% Fe (calculated as Fe2O3). Other impurities are present in small quantities and can be ignored.
[0011] The FCC waste rubber residue catalyst and waste polyolefin plastic were mixed evenly and loaded into a stainless steel high-pressure reactor. A magnetic stirrer was added, and the reactor was sealed. Subsequently, the air inside the reactor was replaced with hydrogen five times. Afterward, hydrogen gas at 1–5 MPa was introduced, and the reaction was carried out at 250–350 °C for 8–36 hours. After the reaction, the reactor was placed in a water bath. Once the reactor temperature cooled to room temperature, the pyrolysis gas was collected using a gas collection bag, and the mixture of pyrolysis oil and catalyst in the reactor was collected using a sample bottle. The liquid product was extracted with cyclohexane or toluene. The gaseous and liquid products were further analyzed by gas chromatography.
[0012] Furthermore, the mass ratio of FCC waste rubber residue catalyst to waste polyolefin plastic is 0.2 to 1.4.
[0013] Preferably, the mass ratio of the FCC waste rubber residue catalyst to waste polyolefin plastic is 0.6 to 1.2.
[0014] Preferably, the reaction temperature is 300–330°C.
[0015] Preferably, the initial hydrogen pressure is 2 to 3 MPa.
[0016] Preferably, the reaction time is 20 to 36 hours.
[0017] The main product is gaseous fuel, specifically C1-C5 alkane gaseous fuel. A small amount of liquid fuel is also produced, specifically C4-C5 alkane gaseous fuel. 12 Alkanes.
