Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of biomass energy, and relates to a biomass conversion catalytic material and a preparation method and use thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Biomass energy is the only renewable energy that can be directly converted into carbonaceous liquid fuel, and it is of great significance to convert it into liquid fuel that can replace fossil fuels through thermochemical means. Biomass catalytic pyrolysis technology has high conversion efficiency, and the main products are liquid bio-oil, H2, small molecule hydrocarbon gas, and part of solid coke and carbon deposition by-products. The use of fast pyrolysis can effectively improve the yield of liquid product bio-oil, and the introduction of catalysts in catalytic pyrolysis reaction can improve the selectivity of aromatic hydrocarbons. Catalytic pyrolysis reaction is mainly divided into in-situ catalytic pyrolysis (in-situ CFP) of biomass raw materials and catalyst pre-mixing and ex-situ catalytic pyrolysis (ex-situ CFP) of separation of the two. The former has higher raw material conversion rate and bio-oil yield due to direct contact of raw materials and catalysts, and the latter can reduce the yield of carbon deposition by-products and protect the catalyst due to the non-direct contact of raw materials and catalysts.

[0003] One of the cores of biomass catalytic pyrolysis for bio-oil technology is the catalyst. At present, the commonly used catalysts in the field mainly include alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, metal oxides, and zeolite molecular sieves. Alkali metals and alkaline earth metals can reduce the oxygen content of liquid products, but due to their strong alkalinity, they can easily cause excessive decomposition of bio-oil, thereby reducing the yield of liquid products. Metal oxide catalysts can reduce the selectivity of some oxygen-containing compounds and improve the stability of bio-oil, but the yield of liquid products is still not high. Molecular sieve catalysts can promote the decomposition and conversion of macromolecular substances, thereby obtaining high-value aromatic hydrocarbons and improving the quality of bio-oil. This type of catalyst has better cracking and deoxygenation ability, and is the focus of biomass catalytic pyrolysis research.

[0004] ZSM-5 molecular sieve has excellent pore structure and acid site advantage, and is paid more and more attention by researchers. However, as a typical microporous molecular sieve catalyst, it has a certain diffusion limitation in the catalytic pyrolysis of biomass. The macromolecular reactants of biomass are difficult to diffuse into the micropore and carry out the catalytic conversion reaction on the active site, resulting in low conversion rate of biomass raw materials and low selectivity of target product monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (literature source: AJJ, AGAT, BAJF, et al. Investigation into the shape selectivity of zeolite catalysts for biomass conversion [J]. Journal of Catalysis, 2011, 279 (2): 257-268.).

[0005] Patent CN105032475A discloses a modified ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst for biomass pyrolysis to light aromatic hydrocarbon and application. The catalyst comprises the following components by weight: iron oxide: 5-20 parts, cobalt oxide: 5-20 parts, molybdenum oxide: 5-15 parts, gallium oxide: 5-15 parts, ZSM-5 molecular sieve: 30-80 parts. It also needs to go through the following steps to obtain: (1) carrier pretreatment; (2) introduction of main active components; (3) introduction of auxiliary active components; (4) molding of the catalyst. By modifying the ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst with metal and applying the modified catalyst to the catalytic pyrolysis of biomass, a light aromatic hydrocarbon yield higher than 70% is obtained, and the catalyst has high stability.

[0006] In combination with the above content, it can be known that ZSM-5 molecular sieve has been successfully used as a catalyst or a catalyst carrier in the process of catalytic pyrolysis of biomass, but there are still certain limitations in the use process. On the one hand, ZSM-5 molecular sieve has a certain diffusion limitation to the macromolecules of biomass, which will further lead to the reduction of the conversion rate of raw materials. On the other hand, the reaction products in the process of biomass pyrolysis are easy to cause the generation of carbon deposition, and the carbon deposition will block the pore channels of the molecular sieve and even poison the active sites, thereby leading to the deactivation of the catalyst and affecting the service life and performance of the catalyst. Therefore, it is still necessary to further improve the ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst to solve the problems existing in the prior art and improve the quality of liquid products. SUMMARY

[0007] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the main purpose of the present application is to provide a biomass conversion catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. By adjusting the pore structure of the carrier and introducing the metal active phase, a high-activity composite structure catalyst is formed, which integrates catalytic cracking, reforming and carbon deposition inhibition in one, realizes efficient and accurate cracking of macromolecular compounds in the raw materials in the catalytic pyrolysis reaction, effectively inhibits carbon deposition, reduces the occurrence of side reactions, and obtains high-quality bio-oil products.

[0008] In the research process, it is found that the biggest influence of the carbon deposition generated in the reaction on the existing biomass conversion catalyst is that the effective pore of the catalyst is blocked by the carbon deposition, thereby reducing the reaction activity of the catalyst and leading to the reduction of product yield and performance. Since the micro-pore contains more cracking active sites and is the core position of the biomass catalytic pyrolysis reaction, the micro-pore is more easily deactivated and damaged, so protecting the micro-pore becomes a core problem in the modification and preparation of the catalyst. After research, an original "carbon deposition growth space transfer" concept is proposed, which aims to adjust the carbon deposition generation position to the space with the smallest influence on the activity of the catalyst through the regulation of the catalyst, and solves the problem of objective carbon deposition generation. The catalyst prepared by the method can transfer the carbon deposition generation site in the catalytic reaction and inhibit the occurrence of the carbon deposition generation reaction. In the catalyst preparation method of the application, the acid site distribution and acid amount of the catalyst are regulated through desiliconization by alkali treatment, mesoporous shell coating and metal active phase introduction, which can effectively improve the selectivity to the monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the product and inhibit the generation of polycyclic aromatic compounds, so that high-quality bio-oil products are obtained.

[0049] The fourth aspect of the present application provides a lignin residue non-in-situ catalytic pyrolysis method, which contacts lignin residue materials with the biomass conversion catalyst or the biomass conversion catalyst obtained by the preparation method for reaction.

[0050] Compared with the prior art, the biomass conversion catalyst and the preparation method thereof provided by the present application have the following beneficial effects and technical advantages:

[0051] 1. The biomass conversion catalyst provided by the application has multiple functions of catalytic cracking, reforming and inhibiting carbon deposition, and is particularly suitable for use in the process of lignin residue non-in-situ catalytic pyrolysis. The catalyst can transfer the carbon deposition site in the catalytic reaction and inhibit the generation of carbon deposition reaction. The composite structure catalyst AT-ZSM-5@MCM-41 with microporous-disordered mesoporous as the core and ordered mesoporous as the shell is prepared by pretreating ZSM-5 molecular sieve and the like. The advantages of the acid sites and pore structure of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst are fully utilized. The microporous-mesoporous core structure and the distribution of acid sites are adjusted by changing the types, proportions and treatment time of the treating agent and the additive. The thickness of the ordered mesoporous shell and the total acid amount of the composite structure catalyst are adjusted by changing the proportion of the external silicon source and the core. The first active metal active phase is introduced into the microporous-mesoporous composite structure molecular sieve by using the equal-volume impregnation method, and the second active metal active phase is introduced into the mesoporous MCM-41. The number of active sites of the catalyst and the interaction between the active sites and the carrier are adjusted by changing the loading amount of the bimetallic active phase. By introducing the bimetallic active phase and combining the microporous-mesoporous composite structure, the catalyst has high selectivity for aromatic hydrocarbon target products and strong inhibition effect on by-product carbon deposition, so that the quality of liquid products is improved and the service life of the catalyst is prolonged.

[0052] 2. In the catalyst preparation method provided by the application, the long-chain quaternary ammonium salt is better adsorbed by the ZSM-5 molecular sieve pretreated and the additive through electrostatic interaction, so that the mesoporous MCM-41 is more uniformly coated, the dispersion effect of the second active metal phase in the MCM-41 is further improved, and the interaction between the second active metal component and the MCM-41 molecular sieve is enhanced.

[0053] 3. The catalyst preparation method provided by the application introduces the active metal component by using the combination of “step-by-step impregnation, vacuum extraction and ultrasonic treatment”, so that the metal active phase is highly dispersed and is mainly distributed in the microporous-mesoporous pore channel instead of the surface of the catalyst, which is beneficial to the regulation of the occurrence position of the catalytic reaction.

[0054] 4. In the catalyst preparation method provided by the application, the new active sites generated by the interaction between the second active metal component and the MCM-41 can change the generation position of the catalytic by-product carbon deposition. The BET pore structure parameter results show that the mesopore specific surface area reduction rate of the catalyst after the reaction is greater than that of the micropore after the introduction of the second active metal component, which indicates that more carbon deposition tends to be generated in the mesopore and has a certain protective effect on the micropore. Meanwhile, the way of introducing the second active metal component into the MCM-41 in the catalyst preparation method of the application is beneficial to improving the proportion of the second active metal component in the mesoporous pore channel.

[0055] 5. In the catalyst provided by this invention, the high dispersion of the first active metal can improve the catalytic activity of the catalyst, increase the yield of the target product monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and reduce the amount of carbon deposits formed; the introduction of basic sites by the second active metal component can improve the decarbonylation ability of the catalyst and change the carbon deposit formation site. Furthermore, the combination of the first and second active metal components can significantly improve the catalytic performance of the catalyst, improve product quality, and contribute to extending the catalyst lifetime.
