Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of catalysts, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of a terephthalic acid hydrogenation catalyst. BACKGROUND

[0002] Terephthalic acid has important commercial value and is widely used in the preparation of various polyester polymers. A small amount of impurity p-carboxybenzaldehyde (4-CBA) in crude terephthalic acid (CTA) can affect the esterification performance of PTA. In industry, the main impurity 4-CBA (p-carboxybenzaldehyde) is usually hydrogenated under high temperature and high pressure in a palladium-based catalyst to generate p-toluic acid (p-TA) crystals, which are separated to obtain PTA.

[0003] The terephthalic acid hydrogenation refining reaction process is a first-order reaction, the reaction speed is fast, and it is difficult for the reactants to penetrate into the inside of the catalyst particles to react during the reaction process, so the distribution and dispersion of the metal palladium on the carrier have a great influence on the performance of the catalyst.

[0004] US 3,138,560 adds hydrogen peroxide to the impregnation solution to hydrolyze the water-soluble compound of Pd into an insoluble compound. However, since hydrogen peroxide itself also has oxidizing properties, it can oxidize the surface groups of the activated carbon, thereby changing the surface physical and chemical properties of the carrier, i.e., changing the surface group structure of the carrier, which has a strong uncertain negative impact and can damage other properties of the catalyst, such as catalyst life, selectivity, etc. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present application provides a preparation method and application of a terephthalic acid hydrogenation catalyst. When the catalyst prepared by the preparation method provided by the present application is applied to the hydrogenation refining of crude terephthalic acid, the conversion rate of 4-CBA can be effectively improved.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a preparation method of a terephthalic acid hydrogenation catalyst, which comprises the following steps:

[0007] S1: subjecting a mixture containing a palladium source and a carrier to heat treatment in a first mixed gas atmosphere to obtain a heat-treated product,

[0008] S2: subjecting the heat-treated product of step S1 to reduction treatment in a second mixed gas atmosphere to obtain the terephthalic acid hydrogenation catalyst;

[0009] The first mixed gas comprises an inert gas and a C3-C10 monocarboxylic acid.

[0010] The present application can change the surface environment of the carrier, and facilitate the loading and dispersion of Pd on the surface of the carrier by heat treating the mixture containing a palladium source and a carrier in the presence of a mixed gas containing C3-C10 monocarboxylic acid.

[0011] In some embodiments, the first mixed gas contains C3-C8 monocarboxylic acid. In some embodiments, the first mixed gas contains C3-C5 monocarboxylic acid or C6-C8 monocarboxylic acid.

[0012] In some embodiments, the first mixed gas contains C3-C5 linear monocarboxylic acid or C6-C8 linear monocarboxylic acid. In some embodiments, the first mixed gas contains one or more of propionic acid, butyric acid, valeric acid, caproic acid, heptanoic acid and octanoic acid.

[0013] In some embodiments, the inert gas is selected from one or more of nitrogen, helium and argon.

In some embodiments, the molar ratio of monocarboxylic acid to inert gas in the first mixed gas is 1:1-1:3.

[0015] In the present application, a too high molar ratio of monocarboxylic acid to inert gas can cause Pd to react with acidic substances in the atmosphere, resulting in a reduced loading amount.
