DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] The endpoints and any values ​​of the ranges disclosed in this article are not limited to the precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values ​​should be understood to include values ​​close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoint values ​​of each range, the endpoint values ​​of each range and the individual point values, and the individual point values ​​can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered as specifically disclosed in this article.

[0013] The first aspect of the present invention provides a bifunctional catalyst, wherein the catalyst comprises: a carrier and a metal active component supported on the carrier, wherein the carrier is a modified 13X molecular sieve, and the metal active component is Fe 2 O 3 and ZnO; wherein, based on the total weight of the catalyst, Fe 2 O 3 The content of ZnO is 4-5wt%, the content of ZnO is 2-2.5wt%, and the specific surface active site density of the catalyst is 1000-1500 / m 2 .

[0014] In the present invention, the metal active component interacts with the hydroxyl group on the modified 13X molecular sieve, so that the metal active component is fixed on the pores. The metal active component and the molecular sieve work together to have a good catalytic effect. At the same time, by limiting the specific content of the metal active component, when Fe 2 O 3 When the content of ZnO is 4-5wt% and the content of ZnO is 2-2.5wt%, the acidity and alkalinity of the catalyst can be adjusted, and the obtained catalyst has the highest saturated sulfur capacity. The catalyst has the ability to selectively adsorb H 2 S, while catalyzing H 2 S is a dual-function adsorbent-catalyst for elemental sulfur, which realizes adsorption desulfurization, adsorbent regeneration and sulfur recovery in one.

[0015] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the modified 13X molecular sieve has a porous structure and an adjustable pore size distribution. The modified 13X molecular sieve has a suitable pore size and pore structure, which is more conducive to the adsorption of H 2 S molecules have a good catalytic effect and can make the specific surface active site density of the catalyst 1000-1500 / m 2 .

[0016] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the specific surface active site density of the catalyst is 1000-1500 / m 2, by regulating the catalyst ratio and preparation conditions, the density of active sites on the specific surface can be increased, thereby improving the catalytic activity and selectivity of the catalyst. This limitation can bring the following advantages: (1) Improving reaction rate and product selectivity: Increasing the active site density can increase the contact opportunity between the reactants and the catalyst, enhance the adsorption and reaction process, thereby accelerating the reaction rate and improving product selectivity. (2) Reducing the amount of catalyst used: High active site density means that less catalyst can achieve the same reaction effect, thereby reducing the catalyst cost. The specific surface active site density can be determined by nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement (BET method) to measure the specific surface area and pore volume of the catalyst, and then calculate the specific surface active site density. The specific surface active site density is calculated by correlating the specific surface area with the number of active sites in the catalyst.

[0017] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the silicon-aluminum ratio of the modified 13X molecular sieve is 2-5: 1. The silicon-aluminum ratio refers to the molar ratio of silicon to aluminum in the modified 13X molecular sieve. By adjusting the silicon-aluminum ratio of the modified 13X molecular sieve within this range, the chemical properties and pore structure of the molecular sieve can be changed, thereby improving the adsorption and catalytic performance of the catalyst.

[0018] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the average particle size of the catalyst is 0.3-0.5 mm. Smaller particle size can increase the contact area between the catalyst and the reactant and improve the adsorption effect. However, too small particles may cause the adsorption rate to drop rapidly after penetration. Therefore, the average particle size of the modified 13X molecular sieve used in the present invention is 0.3-0.5 mm, the catalyst adsorption effect is the best, and the best adsorption performance can be achieved.

[0019] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the specific surface area of ​​the catalyst is 300-500m 2 / g. This limitation can bring the following advantages: (1) The catalyst of the present invention has a higher specific surface area, which can provide more active surface area, increase the contact area between the catalyst and the reactant, and thus promote the improvement of the reaction rate. More active surface area provides more catalytic active sites, which can make the specific surface active site density of the catalyst be 1000-1500 / m 2, which increases the catalyst's ability to adsorb and convert reactants, thereby effectively improving the catalyst's catalytic activity, achieving higher reaction conversion rates and product yields, thereby improving resource utilization efficiency and reducing catalyst waste. (2) Improved reaction selectivity: The catalyst's specific surface active site density plays a key role in the diffusion and transfer of reactant molecules. An appropriate specific surface active site density can achieve a uniform distribution of reactant molecules on the catalyst surface and reduce non-uniform reactions caused by local concentration changes. This helps to improve the selectivity of the reaction, reduce the occurrence of side reactions, and thus improve the purity and quality of the product. (3) Reaction kinetics control: The regulation of specific surface area can affect the adsorption capacity of the catalyst surface and the diffusion rate of reactant molecules, thereby affecting the reaction kinetics process. By controlling the range of specific surface area, effective control and regulation of the reaction rate can be achieved, making the reaction process more controllable and stable.

[0020] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the pore volume of the catalyst is 0.3-0.5 cm 3 / g. This limitation can bring the following advantages: (1) Effective diffusion path: The appropriate pore volume range can provide suitable pore size and pore structure, providing a good channel for the diffusion and transfer of reactant molecules. A larger pore volume can provide a wider pore size distribution, promote the entry and exit of larger molecules into and out of the catalyst, and facilitate the diffusion-limited reaction. (2) Enhanced catalytic activity: The increase in pore volume can increase the active surface area inside the catalyst and provide more catalytic active sites. These sites can provide more adsorption sites, enhance the interaction between reactant molecules and catalysts, and help the catalytic reaction. In addition, a larger pore volume can also provide a larger reaction space, reduce competitive adsorption between reactants, and improve the selectivity of the catalyst. (3) Restriction of reactant molecules: The appropriate pore volume range can restrict the movement of reactant molecules inside the catalyst and reduce the occurrence of side reactions. A smaller pore volume can restrict the entry of larger molecules, thereby reducing non-selective reactions with the catalyst surface. This helps to improve the selectivity of the reaction and improve the purity and quality of the product. (4) Dispersion of reaction heat: A larger pore volume can provide more channels and pores, enhancing the catalyst's ability to disperse reaction heat. The heat generated during the catalytic reaction can be more evenly dispersed inside the catalyst, avoiding the formation of local high-temperature areas, alleviating the hot spot effect, and helping to improve the stability and service life of the catalyst.

[0021] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the pH value of the surface acidity and alkalinity of the modified 13X molecular sieve is 8-9.5. The modified 13X molecular sieve has a certain acidity and alkalinity, and the acidity and alkalinity of the catalyst surface can be adjusted by regulating the ratio of the modified 13X molecular sieve and the preparation conditions of the present invention. The effects and advantages of limiting the surface acidity and alkalinity include: (1) regulating the adsorption and dissociation of reactants: appropriate acidity and alkalinity can regulate the adsorption and dissociation characteristics of reactants on the catalyst surface, which is conducive to the reaction and the formation of transition states. (2) controlling the reaction pathway and product selectivity: different acidity and alkalinity conditions can guide different reaction pathways and affect the product selectivity of the reaction, thereby achieving the desired reaction process and product distribution. (3) stability and life: limiting the stability and service life of the catalyst is crucial to achieving long-term stable catalytic performance. Optimizing the catalyst ratio, carrier selection and surface modification methods can improve the stability of the catalyst and extend its service life. (4) Improving the long-term performance of the catalyst: a stable catalyst can maintain its catalytic activity and selectivity over a long period of time, reduce the frequency of catalyst deactivation and regeneration, and improve production efficiency and economy. (5) Reduce catalyst replacement and maintenance costs: Improved stability and lifespan can extend the service life of the catalyst and reduce the frequency and cost of replacement and maintenance. Surface acidity and alkalinity can be analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to measure the vibration frequency and intensity of specific molecules adsorbed on the catalyst surface.

[0022] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, by adjusting the silicon-aluminum ratio, average particle size, specific surface area and pore volume of the modified 13X molecular sieve, the modified 13X molecular sieve can provide a more optimized pore structure, specific surface area and adsorption performance, thereby enhancing the interaction between the catalyst and the reactant, and improving the catalytic activity, selectivity and stability of the catalyst. The modified 13X molecular sieve has a porous structure and an adjustable pore size distribution. Through reasonable synthesis and treatment methods, the presence of micropores and mesopores can be achieved, and their size and distribution can be adjusted. This porous structure and pore size distribution are conducive to increasing the surface area, adsorption capacity and transfer rate of the catalyst, thereby improving the catalytic performance of the catalyst.

Its surface chemical properties play an important role in the removal of hydrogen sulfide and improve the desulfurization effect.

[0027] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the modified 13X molecular sieve has a silicon-aluminum ratio of 2-5:1, an average particle size of 0.3-0.5 mm, and a specific surface area of ​​300-500 m 2 / g, and the pore volume is 0.3-0.5cm3 / g.

[0032] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, step (2) further comprises standing for 8-12 hours after the mixing.

[0033] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, in step (2), the drying temperature is 120-150° C., and the drying time is 3-6 hours.

[0036] The third aspect of the present invention provides a bifunctional catalyst prepared by the preparation method.

[0037] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides an adsorption catalytic H 2 S method, wherein the method comprises: in SO 2 In the presence of gas and catalyst, 2 S raw natural gas is subjected to a desulfurization reaction, wherein the catalyst is the bifunctional catalyst.

[0038] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the catalytic reaction temperature is 150-250° C., and the catalytic reaction pressure is 0.5-5 MPa.

[0039] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, n(H 2 S) / n(SO 2 ) is 1-3, preferably 2.

[0041] The present invention will be described in detail below through examples.

[0042] Specific surface active site density and specific surface area determination: Nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement (BET method) can be used to determine the specific surface area and pore volume of the catalyst, and then calculate the specific surface active site density.

[0043] General steps for determining the specific surface active site density of a catalyst using the BET method:

[0044] (1) Preparation of catalyst samples: Catalyst samples are usually pre-treated at high temperature to remove any adsorbent. This is to ensure that the sample is in a dry state.

[0045] (2) Nitrogen adsorption: The dried catalyst sample is exposed to liquid nitrogen and then exposed to nitrogen gas so that the nitrogen gas is adsorbed onto the catalyst surface.

[0046] (3) Nitrogen desorption: The catalyst sample is gradually heated while monitoring the desorption of nitrogen. This can be used to determine the adsorption and desorption isotherms.

[0047] (4) Data analysis: The adsorption-desorption data were analyzed using methods such as the BET equation to calculate the specific surface area and specific surface active site density of the catalyst.

[0048] The specific surface active site density was calculated by relating the specific surface area to the number of active sites in the catalyst.

[0111] Test Example 1

[0112] The test methods for adsorbent performance are divided into static method and dynamic method. Since hydrogen sulfide is mixed with various gases in this experiment, hydrogen sulfide will be adsorbed by the adsorbent when passing through the adsorption bed. Therefore, detecting the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the fixed bed outlet is an important indicator for evaluating the adsorption effect of the adsorbent. When hydrogen sulfide is detected at the fixed bed outlet, it indicates that the desulfurizer has penetrated. Continue to detect until the outlet concentration reaches a certain concentration value and stop measuring. Plot the concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the outlet gas and time to obtain the adsorbent penetration curve.

[0113] Adsorbent desulfurization evaluation indicators include breakthrough time, breakthrough sulfur capacity, saturated sulfur capacity and hydrogen sulfide conversion rate.

[0114] Sulfur capacity is defined as the mass of hydrogen sulfide adsorbed by a unit mass of adsorbent, and the unit is generally mg / g. The sulfur capacity can be determined by calculation or by directly measuring the mass change of the adsorbent before and after adsorption. When other evaluation conditions remain unchanged, there is a corresponding relationship between the sulfur capacity of the adsorbent and time.

[0115] Breakthrough sulfur capacity: When the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the outlet of the adsorption bed reaches a certain index, the mass of hydrogen sulfide adsorbed by a unit mass of adsorbent is the breakthrough sulfur capacity. Considering the safety of desulfurization adsorbents in practical applications and the generally high requirements for desulfurization effects, this experiment defines the time when the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the outlet of the adsorption bed is 1ppm as the breakthrough time, and the sulfur capacity at this time is the breakthrough sulfur capacity. The calculation formula for breakthrough sulfur capacity is as follows:

[0116]

[0117] Where: q represents the breakthrough sulfur capacity of the adsorbent, in mg / g;

[0118] Q represents the gas flow rate, in mL / min;

[0119] T represents the penetration time, in min;

[0120] C0 represents the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the inlet of the adsorption bed, in mg / m 3 ;

[0121] CT represents the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the outlet of the adsorption bed, in mg / m 3 ;

[0122] m represents the mass of the adsorbent before desulfurization, in g.

[0123] When the hydrogen sulfide concentration at the outlet of the adsorption bed is 50% of the inlet concentration, the reaction stops. In this experiment, breakthrough sulfur capacity and breakthrough curve are used as important indicators to measure adsorption performance.

[0124] The adsorbent is loaded into the reactor, and the reactor is filled with the adsorbent bifunctional agent. The same reactor is in one of the three states of adsorption, regeneration, and cooling during continuous operation. The three states are switched cyclically to achieve continuous operation of natural gas desulfurization, sulfur recovery, and adsorbent regeneration. 2 The volume fraction of S is 1.6%, the rest is nitrogen, the test pressure is 0.5MPa, and the air velocity ratio is 450h -1 , the absorbent particle size is 0.4 mm, and the gas flow rate is 380 mL / min.

[0125] According to the above method, the sulfur capacity and sulfur recovery rate of the catalysts of the examples and comparative examples were tested. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0131]

[0132] It can be seen from the results in Table 1 that the present invention provides a catalyst system based on 13X molecular sieve, and the optimization and adjustability of catalyst performance can be achieved by adjusting parameters such as component content, physical properties and metal weight ratio.

[0133] The results of Examples 1-3 and 4-5 show that the performance of the catalyst can be affected by adjusting the pH value of the catalyst surface acidity and alkalinity. When the pH value of the catalyst surface acidity and alkalinity is 8-9.5, the catalyst has better specific surface active site density, sulfur capacity and sulfur recovery rate.

[0134] The results of Example 1 and Examples 6-7 show that the performance of the catalyst can be affected by adjusting the silicon-aluminum ratio of the modified 13X molecular sieve of the catalyst, and the modified 13X molecular sieve has a better catalytic effect when the silicon-aluminum ratio is 2-5:1.

[0135] The results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 show that the 13X molecular sieve of the present application has better effects than other molecular sieves. The results of Comparative Examples 2-3 verify the importance of the metal weight ratio adopted in Example 1. The metal weight ratio setting outside the scope of the present application will lead to poor catalytic performance and a significant reduction in the catalyst surface active site density.

[0136] In summary, through the analysis of the embodiments and comparative examples, we can see the innovation and originality of the present invention in catalyst design and performance optimization, which provides new ideas and methods for research and application in the field of catalysis.

[0138] The catalyst in Example 1 was measured at different n(H 2 S) / n(SO 2 ), pressure and temperature on the sulfur recovery rate. The results are shown in Table 2-4.

[0145] Optimize the adsorbent-catalyst and adsorbent sulfur recovery process, reduce side reactions and tail gas composition tests. In order to obtain the highest sulfur recovery rate, n(H 2 S) / n(SO 2 ) is basically maintained at a stoichiometric ratio of 2, and the exhaust SO 2 Very small; ensures both COS and CS 2 hydrolysis, therefore, the reactor needs to be maintained at a relatively high temperature, and the catalytic conversion reaction temperature is generally controlled at 150°C-310°C. Optimization of adsorption process conditions. This experiment selected 13X with an intermediate particle size of 0.5-0.3mm as the molecular sieve adsorption experimental conditions. As the bed height increased, the space velocity ratio increased, and the penetration time and saturation time increased significantly. When the bed height was 4cm, the penetration time reached 196min, and the penetration sulfur capacity was 45.3mg / g. The desulfurization performance of Zn-Fe / 13X adsorbent at three different temperatures of 20°C, 40°C and 80°C was different. As the temperature increased, the desulfurization performance of the molecular sieve gradually decreased, the penetration time was shortened, and H 2 The S gas stays on the adsorbent for a shorter time, and the adsorbent is quickly saturated after penetration. In order to obtain the highest sulfur recovery rate, the n(H 2 S) / n(SO 2 ) is around 2. Higher H 2 S concentration is beneficial to increase H 2 The sulfur recovery reaction tends to be carried out at low atmospheric pressure. The higher the pressure, the worse the effect. The temperature of the catalytic reactor has a significant effect on the total sulfur recovery rate. When the reactor temperature is reduced from 310℃ to 150℃, 3% H 2 The total sulfur recovery rate of acid gas increases with the S concentration.
