Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a catalyst for dehydrogenation of propane to propylene and its preparation and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] The shape and size of the catalyst particles are generally determined according to the requirements of the reactor used in industrial production. Currently, there are four types of reactors commonly used in industry: fixed bed, fluidized bed (boiling bed), suspended bed and moving bed. The fixed bed reactor often uses spherical, cylindrical strip, three-leaf clover, four-leaf clover and sheet-shaped catalysts. The moving bed reactor often uses large particle spherical catalysts. The fluidized bed reactor generally uses small particle spherical or strip-shaped catalysts.

[0003] Spherical catalysts have good flow properties and high packing coefficients, uniform fluid distribution, low resistance and small pressure drop, and are widely used in low-carbon alkane dehydrogenation to produce olefins.

[0004] Currently, the catalyst for dehydrogenation of low-carbon alkanes to produce olefins is mainly prepared by loading active components Pt and other additives on a γ-Al2O3 carrier, such as EP100222A, CN1185994A, etc. However, since the dehydrogenation reaction is carried out at a high temperature of about 600℃, the high reaction temperature often causes a large amount of carbon deposition on the catalyst. As the use time of the catalyst increases, the catalyst needs to be treated by high-temperature carbon burning and regeneration multiple times, which causes the γ-Al2O3 carrier to easily sinter and α-phase change, greatly reduces the specific surface area of the carrier, destroys the pore structure, and further causes the active components of the catalyst to aggregate, resulting in a serious decrease in the activity of the catalyst. Therefore, it is necessary to further modify the γ-Al2O3 carrier to make the catalyst have high thermal stability.

[0005] CN112973771A discloses a spherical catalyst carrier containing molecular sieve and alumina and its preparation and application. The catalyst carrier is prepared by precipitating an inorganic aluminum salt with ammonia water and acidifying to obtain a sol, adding a mixed solution of ball-milled pseudoboehmite and molecular sieve to the sol, and then adding a sol modification additive to the sol. The mixture is then dropped into an oil-ammonia column for spherification and aging, and finally washed, dried and calcined to obtain a high-strength large-specific-surface-area composite pellet. This method is to mix the suspension slurry of the ball-milled pseudoboehmite and molecular sieve with the dilute sol and then gelatinize again, which will cause uneven dispersion of the molecular sieve. At the same time, the doping of solid molecular sieve will also cause the strength of the carrier to decrease.

[0006] CN105478100A discloses a method for preparing Si-containing γ-Al2O3 pellets. The method is to stir and slurry pseudo-boehmite dry glue powder and deionized water, acidify by adding dilute nitric acid, then add urea and a predetermined amount of sodium silicate solution, stir for 5 hours, add kerosene and fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether and stir for 5 hours, drop ball forming in an oil-ammonia column, wet ball solidification in ammonia water for 2 hours, then filter, rinse with deionized water, dry, and calcine to obtain Si-containing γ-Al2O3 pellets. The method has long solidification time, difficult washing, and low production efficiency.

[0007] CN104289220A discloses a method for preparing and use of a high-thermal-stability low-carbon alkane dehydrogenation catalyst. The carrier preparation method is to add an aluminum source to an alkaline aqueous solution, stir, continue to add the alkaline aqueous solution to adjust the pH of the mixed solution to 7-14, filter, wash with deionized water, then add dilute nitric acid to form a sol, add a silicon source, stir, filter, age for 10-48 hours, drop ball forming, then dry and calcine to obtain Si-containing γ-Al2O3 pellets; or add an aluminum source to an alkaline aqueous solution, stir, continue to add the alkaline aqueous solution to adjust the pH of the mixed solution to 7-14, filter, wash with deionized water, then add dilute nitric acid to form a sol, stir, filter, age for 10-48 hours, drop ball forming, then dry and calcine to obtain γ-Al2O3 pellets, then immerse the γ-Al2O3 pellets in a silicon source aqueous solution or ethanol solution at 60-120℃ for 2-6 hours, then dry and calcine to obtain Si-containing γ-Al2O3 pellets. The method has long preparation period, complex process, and pH value needs to be adjusted, and cannot guarantee product consistency. SUMMARY

[0019] Further, in the oil-ammonia water-oil-water four-layer mixed column, the tin-containing water layer is prepared by dissolving a tin salt in hydrochloric acid.

[0041] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0042] (1) The four-layer oil-ammonia water-oil-water mixed column used in the preparation process of the tin-containing spherical alumina carrier of the catalyst of the present application is different from the two-layer oil-ammonia column or the hot oil column, a third oil layer is added as a liquid seal oil layer and a fourth tin-containing water layer, which can make the sol quickly enter the third oil layer and the fourth tin-containing water layer after passing through the second ammonia water layer, and the pH value is quickly reduced to neutral or acidic, so that the small balls are not easy to break or shrink during the drying process due to the volatilization of the surface ammonia water, and the alumina particle size and mechanical strength are obviously increased. In addition, the rapid decrease of the pH value of the sol small ball surface also causes the rapid decrease of the hydrophobicity of the colloidal particle surface, the interaction force between the colloidal particles is obviously increased, the distance between the colloidal particles is shortened, and the original structure is partially collapsed, resulting in an increase in the mesoporous structure of the carrier in the range of 2-50 nm. By adjusting the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the tin-containing water layer, the pore structure can be further optimized.

[0043] (2) In the preparation process of the tin-containing spherical alumina carrier of the present application, tin is introduced into the fourth water layer. Since the surface potential of the spherical sol is negative, Sn 2+ ions can be quickly adsorbed when passing through the tin-containing water layer. The metal element is introduced in one step during the synthesis of the carrier, and Sn-doped spherical alumina is prepared by subsequent calcination. The operation is simple, the adsorption mainly occurs on the outer surface, and the pore channel is not blocked. In addition, the interaction between Sn and alumina is enhanced during the solidification process, which is beneficial to improve the stability and dispersion of noble metal after loading, and thus improve the catalyst activity.

[0044] (3) The preparation process of the tin-containing spherical alumina carrier of the present application is environmentally friendly. In the traditional oil-ammonia column balling process, the volatilization of ammonia water causes serious environmental pollution and subsequent pollutant emission problems. In the present application, the second oil layer separates the second ammonia water layer and the fourth tin-containing water layer, so that the ammonia water layer is sealed above the fourth tin-containing water layer, which can prolong the service time and avoid environmental pollution caused by the product taking out ammonia water. After long-term use, the tin-containing water layer can be replaced to ensure the liquid sealing effect. The operation is simple and cost-saving in industry. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
