Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of automobile exhaust purification, and in particular to a high-temperature resistant ammonia decomposition catalyst and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The exhaust of vehicles that use equivalent ratio combustion (such as gasoline vehicles, natural gas vehicles, and methanol vehicles) contains pollutants such as HC (hydrocarbons), NOx (nitrogen oxides), and CO. By installing a three-way catalyst on the exhaust pipe, these pollutants can be converted into CO2, H2O, and N2 that are harmless to the human body. However, during the exhaust gas purification process, side reactions will occur, producing a large amount of NH3 by-products, resulting in excessive NH3 emissions. Adding ammonia decomposition catalytic materials to traditional three-way catalysts and decomposing the NH3 by-products produced on the three-way catalyst into N2 and H2 is one of the effective ways to solve the ammonia emission problem. Ru-based catalysts are currently the catalysts with the best ammonia decomposition catalytic performance and are widely used in the field of ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production, but they are less used in the field of automobile exhaust purification. The field of ammonia decomposition and hydrogen production focuses on the low-temperature activity of ammonia decomposition catalysts. The operating temperature of the catalyst usually does not exceed 500°C, and Ru-based catalysts can operate stably at this temperature. However, in the field of automobile exhaust purification, the exhaust temperature of automobiles can be as high as 800°C or even 1000°C. At such high temperatures, Ru is easily volatilized and lost, resulting in rapid deactivation of the ammonia decomposition catalyst.

[0003] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0017] In one aspect, the present invention provides a high temperature resistant ammonia decomposition catalyst, wherein the catalyst is made of an active component Ru, a carrier and an additive; The carrier includes a carrier A and a carrier B, wherein the carrier A includes a CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution, and the carrier B includes Fe2O3, CaCO3, Pr6O 11 Or at least one of La2O3; the auxiliary agent includes at least one of Li, Na, K, Rb or Cs.

[0018] The mass ratio of Ce to Zr in the CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution is 1:2~2:1. Carrier B includes but is not limited to Fe2O3, CaCO3, Pr6O 11 , La2O3, Fe2O3 and CaCO3, CaCO3 and Pr6O 11 Combination of Pr6O 11 Combination of La2O3, Fe2O3, CaCO3 and Pr6O 11 Combination of CaCO3, Pr6O 11 and La2O3, or Fe2O3, CaCO3, Pr6O 11 and La2O3, etc. The additives include, but are not limited to, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, a combination of Li and Na, a combination of Na and K, a combination of K and Rb, a combination of K and Cs, a combination of Rb and Cs, a combination of Li, Na and K, a combination of Na, K and Rb, a combination of K, Rb and Cs, a combination of Li, Na, K and Rb, a combination of Na, K, Rb and Cs, or a combination of Li, Na, K, Rb and Cs, etc.

[0019] Carrier A, i.e. CeO2-ZrO2 solid solution, has abundant oxygen vacancies, and additives, i.e. Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs, can provide high-density alkaline sites. The two can promote the transfer of electrons from the carrier or additive to Ru, increase the electron density of Ru, and thus improve the catalytic activity of Ru-based catalysts for ammonia decomposition. Carrier B, i.e. Fe2O3, CaCO3, Pr6O 11 There is a strong interaction between La2O3 and Ru, or it can form a solid solution with Ru, thereby stabilizing Ru and inhibiting the volatilization loss of Ru at high temperature.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, the mass ratio of the carrier A to the carrier B is 1:9 to 9:1. Carrier A has abundant oxygen vacancies, which can promote the transfer of electrons from the carrier to Ru, increase the electron density of Ru, and thus improve the catalytic activity of Ru-based catalysts for ammonia decomposition; there is a strong interaction between carrier B and Ru, or it can form a solid solution with Ru, thereby stabilizing Ru and inhibiting the volatilization loss of Ru at high temperatures. When the mass ratio of carrier A to carrier B is lower than 1:9, the catalytic activity of ammonia decomposition of the catalyst is poor; when it is higher than 9:1, Ru is more susceptible to volatilization loss. The ratio includes but is not limited to 1:9, 1:8, 1:7, 1:6, 1:5, 1:4, 1:3, 1:2, 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 5:1, 6:1, 7:1, 8:1 or 9:1.

If the content of the active component is lower than 0.5wt%, the catalyst has poor ammonia decomposition catalytic activity; if it is higher than 5wt%, the cost of the catalyst is higher. If the content of the auxiliary agent is lower than 0.5wt%, the catalyst has poor ammonia decomposition activity; if it is higher than 10wt%, Ru is more likely to be volatilized and lost. Among them, the content of active ingredients includes but is not limited to 0.5wt%, 1wt%, 1.5wt%, 2wt%, 2.5wt%, 3wt%, 3.5wt%, 4wt%, 4.5wt% or 5wt%; the content of carrier includes but is not limited to 85wt%, 86wt%, 87wt%, 88wt%, 89wt%, 90wt%, 91wt%, 92wt%, 93wt%, 94wt%, 95wt%, 96wt%, 97wt%, 98wt% or 99wt%; the content of auxiliary agent includes but is not limited to 0.5wt%, 1wt%, 2wt%, 3wt%, 4wt%, 5wt%, 6wt%, 7wt%, 8wt%, 9wt% or 10wt%.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, the auxiliary agent includes at least one of K, Rb or Cs. When the auxiliary agent is at least one of K, Rb or Cs, the catalyst has better ammonia decomposition performance. The auxiliary agent K, Rb or Cs can provide a high-density alkaline site, promote the transfer of electrons from the auxiliary agent to Ru, increase the electron density of Ru, and thus improve the ammonia decomposition catalytic activity of the Ru-based catalyst.

[0023] In an optional embodiment, the carrier B comprises Fe2O3, or Fe2O3 and compound C, wherein compound C comprises CaCO3, Pr6O 11or La2O3. When carrier B is the above components, the Ru aging loss rate is lower, and when carrier B is Fe2O3, the Ru aging loss rate is the lowest. There is a strong interaction between carrier B and Ru, or it can form a solid solution with Ru, thereby stabilizing Ru and inhibiting the volatilization loss of Ru at high temperature.

[0024] The above catalyst has excellent ammonia decomposition catalytic performance and high temperature stability (no deactivation above 800°C), can effectively inhibit the volatilization loss of Ru at high temperature, and prevent the catalyst from rapid deactivation at high temperature. The catalyst is used together with the three-way catalyst for automobile exhaust purification, which can decompose the NH3 generated on the three-way catalyst into H2 and N2, solving the ammonia emission problem.

The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 6 shows that Ni is more easily volatilized than Ru.

[0082] The comparison between Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Example 5 in Table 2 shows that compared with Al2O3, the Fe2O 3、 CaCO3, La2O3, Pr6O 11 At least one of the carriers B can significantly inhibit the volatilization loss of Ru at high temperature, and the catalytic performance of ammonia decomposition of the aged catalyst is better. The comparison between Examples 1 to 4 shows that the carrier B is preferably Fe2O3, the Ru volatilization loss of the aged catalyst is small, and the ammonia decomposition performance of the catalyst is better. The comparison between Example 4, Example 5, and Example 8 shows that the higher the ratio of carrier A: carrier B, the more oxygen vacancies of the catalyst, the more conducive to ammonia decomposition, and the lower the ratio of carrier A: carrier B, the less likely Ru is to volatilize and lose. When the ratio of the two is controlled at 1:9~9:1, the ammonia decomposition performance of the aged catalyst is equivalent. The comparison between Example 5, Example 6, and Example 7 shows that the auxiliary agent is one or more of K, Rb, and Cs, and the ammonia decomposition catalytic performance of the aged catalyst is equivalent. The comparison between Example 1 and Example 9 shows that the higher the Ru content and the auxiliary agent content in the catalyst, the better the ammonia decomposition catalytic performance of the aged catalyst. The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 shows that when the catalyst does not contain carrier B, Ru is lost in large quantities during the aging process, and the performance of the aged catalyst is the worst. Comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 shows that when the catalyst contains carrier A, there are more oxygen vacancies in the catalyst, and the ammonia decomposition performance of the aged catalyst is better. Comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 shows that after adding the additive, the basic sites increase, and the ammonia decomposition performance of the aged catalyst is better. Comparison between Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 4 shows that compared with Ca, the present invention adds K as an additive, and the ammonia decomposition performance of the aged catalyst is better. Comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 6 shows that compared with Ni, the present invention uses Ru as an active component, and the ammonia decomposition catalytic performance of the aged catalyst is significantly better.
