Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of catalysts, in particular to an alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is an important platform compound extracted from biomass, which is a key bridge connecting biomass and high-value chemicals / fuels. The preparation of HMF and its derivatives 5-formyl-2-furoic acid (FFCA) and 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) has attracted widespread attention, and these compounds have important applications in bioplastics, solvents, drugs and other fine chemical products.

[0003] HMF can be converted into FFCA and FDCA by catalytic oxidation reaction. The catalysts currently used can be divided into two categories, namely noble metal catalysts (such as palladium or platinum) and non-noble metal catalysts (such as manganese or iron-based catalysts). These catalysts can effectively oxidize the hydroxymethyl group of HMF to carboxyl group, thereby obtaining FFCA. Further oxidation can convert FFCA into FDCA, and the preparation of FDCA usually involves stronger oxidation conditions or more effective catalytic systems.

[0004] Although the existing catalysts can realize the conversion of HMF into FFCA and FDCA, they generally have the problem of low conversion efficiency and selectivity. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a new catalyst to improve the conversion efficiency and selectivity of HMF for the development of HMF catalytic oxidation technology. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to develop a highly efficient catalyst to improve the conversion efficiency and selectivity of HMF.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a preparation method of an alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst, comprising the following steps:

[0007] S1, dissolving a manganese metal salt in ionized water to obtain solution A, wherein the manganese metal salt is selected from one or more of MnCl2, MnBr2, Mn(NO3)2, MnSO4 and Mn(CH3COO)2;

[0008] S2, dissolving a permanganate in ionized water to obtain solution B, wherein the permanganate is selected from one or more of KMnO4, NaMnO4 and LiMnO4;

[0009] S3, adding solution B dropwise to solution A and stirring to perform a co-precipitation reaction;

[0010] S4, collecting the precipitate obtained in the reaction, filtering, washing, and drying to obtain the alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst.

[0011] The alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst is prepared by using a soluble manganese metal salt and a soluble permanganate as raw materials and water as a solvent through a co-precipitation reaction.

[0012] Further, in the solution A, the concentration of the manganese metal salt is 1-10 mol / L.

[0013] Further, in the solution B, the concentration of the permanganate is 1-10 mol / L.

[0014] Further, in the step S3, the volume ratio of the solution A to the solution B added dropwise is 1:0.5-1:2.

[0015] The manganese metal salt solution and the permanganate solution with specific solubility and ratio are reacted to control the structure of the product, and a manganese oxide nanoflower catalyst intercalated with alkali metal ions (Li + , Na + , K + ) is obtained.

[0016] Further, in the step S3, the reaction time is 1-6 hours.

[0017] Further, in the step S4, the drying temperature is 60-100 DEG C, and the time is 6-12 h.

[0018] The second aspect of the application provides an alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst prepared by the above preparation method, wherein the alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst has a nanoflower spherical structure. The nanoflower spherical structure makes the catalyst have a very high specific surface area, increases the number of active sites, and thus improves the catalytic efficiency; the intercalation of alkali metal ions further optimizes the electronic environment of the active sites, which is conducive to enhancing the activity of the catalyst.

[0019] The third aspect of the application provides an application, wherein the alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst is used for catalyzing the oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural.

[0020] Further, in the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural aqueous solution, a persulfate (PMS) and the alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst are added, and the mixed solution is heated or subjected to light irradiation, so that the 5-hydroxymethylfurfural is converted into target products, and the target products are 5-formyl-2-furoic acid and / or 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid.

[0021] Further, the reaction time required for catalytic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to generate the target product is 0.5-12 h.

[0022] Under the condition of no alkali, PMS is used as an oxidant, and an alkali metal modified manganese metal oxide catalyst is added, so that HMF can be efficiently converted, and the catalyst has high selectivity for the reaction path of oxidation of HMF into FFCA and FDCA.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The present application prepares a manganese metal oxide catalyst through a coprecipitation reaction, introduces a certain amount of alkali metal ions, increases the content of oxygen vacancies in the catalyst, changes the morphology, material structure and electronic environment of the catalyst, increases the number of active sites, and improves the catalytic ability of the catalyst.
