Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of catalyst technology, and in particular to an anti-sulfur poisoning catalyst, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Carbon monoxide (CMon) is a common air pollutant, and the steel industry is one of the main sources of CMon emissions. The sintering process alone accounts for 40% of the total CMon emissions from the steel industry, necessitating focused control. Currently, the mainstream technology for CMon emission control is catalytic oxidation, which uses a catalyst to lower the reaction energy barrier of CMon, converting it into non-toxic carbon dioxide under relatively mild conditions. The core of this technology is the development of high-performance CMon oxidation catalysts. Stationary source flue gas compositions are complex; for example, flue gas from the steel industry often includes sulfur dioxide. The presence of sulfur dioxide reacts with the active components on the catalyst surface to form inert sulfates, causing catalyst deactivation.

[0071] The catalyst prepared in this embodiment is named F4-Pt. 0.25 V3Al2O3.
[0072] Example 9
[0073] The only difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that, except that the sintering temperature in step (3) is 300°C, everything else is the same as in embodiment 1.

[0078] Figure 1 The graph shows the catalytic activity of the anti-sulfur poisoning catalysts prepared in Examples 1, 4-7 and Comparative Example 1 before carbon monoxide oxidation. As can be seen from the graph, the introduction of vanadium almost always increases the activity of the catalyst in oxidizing carbon monoxide. This may be because the appropriate interaction between vanadium and platinum enhances the ability of Pt to oxidize carbon monoxide.
[0079] Figure 2 This is a graph showing the catalytic activity of the sulfur-poisoning-resistant catalysts prepared in Examples 1, 4-7, and Comparative Example 1 after presulfurization for carbon monoxide oxidation. The graphs show that the presulfurized P... 0.25 V3Al2O3 catalyst has the best catalytic activity for carbon monoxide oxidation. The introduction of low vanadium content cannot fully play the role of sacrificial agent, while the introduction of excessive vanadium content will lead to the accumulation of more sulfate on the support, thereby blocking the active sites.

[0086] Test methods
[0087] The sulfur poisoning resistant catalysts prepared in Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were pre-sulfurized in a 100 ppm SO2 / Air atmosphere for 12 h. The resulting catalysts were named S-Pt, respectively. 0.25 / Al2O3、S-Pt 0.25 V1 / Al2O3, S-Pt 0.25 V3 / Al2O3, S-Pt 0.25 V5 / Al2O3, S-Pt 0.25 V7 / Al2O3, S-Pt 0.25 V 10 / Al2O3、S2-Pt 0.05 V 0.4 / Al2O3、S3-Pt 0.25 V 10 / Al2O3、S4-Pt 0.25 V3 / Al2O3 and S5-Pt 0.25 V3 / Al2O3.

[0091] Table 2
[0092]
[0093]
[0094] The test results show that:
[0095] (1) As can be seen from Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-3, the present invention uses a one-step impregnation method and utilizes oxalic acid as a vanadium source to directly load platinum source and vanadium source onto the surface of alumina support. By adjusting the vanadium content, the interaction between the support and the active component is controlled, and finally a catalyst with excellent CO oxidation ability is obtained.
[0096] (2) Through Examples 1, 4-7, and Comparative Example 1, the present invention, by controlling the molar ratio of platinum to vanadium, prepares an anti-sulfur catalyst with superior anti-sulfur performance and higher activity. By controlling the amount of vanadium used, the present invention can further improve the catalyst's resistance to sulfur poisoning and further optimize its catalytic effect. Introducing too low a vanadium content cannot fully utilize the sacrificial agent's role, while introducing too high a content will lead to the accumulation of more sulfate on the support, thus blocking the active sites.
[0097] (3) As can be seen from Examples 1 and 8-9, the anti-sulfur catalyst prepared by controlling the sintering temperature in this invention has excellent anti-sulfur performance and high activity. When the sintering temperature is high, Pt and V impregnated on Al2O3 agglomerate, resulting in a reduction of active sites, thereby reducing the anti-sulfur performance and catalytic activity; when the sintering temperature is low, it is insufficient to remove impurities contained in the platinum source and vanadium source, which may reduce the anti-sulfur performance and inhibit catalytic activity.
[0098] In summary, this invention employs an impregnation method, utilizing oxalic acid as a vanadium source for dissolution. Capillary pressure generated by surface tension allows the mixed solvent to penetrate into the solid alumina, eliminating the need for catalyst forming. Furthermore, this application utilizes a one-step impregnation method to directly load both platinum and vanadium sources onto the surface of an alumina support, resulting in a clean, low-cost production process with broad application prospects. In the prepared sulfur poisoning-resistant catalyst, platinum is the main active component, while vanadium acts as a sacrificial agent to adsorb sulfur oxides, thereby protecting the platinum active sites and ensuring high catalyst activity. Therefore, the catalyst prepared by this invention exhibits excellent sulfur resistance and high activity.
