Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of catalysts, and particularly relates to a double-pore-creating pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous growth of global demand for sustainable energy and green chemical industry, the use of renewable biomass resources to produce fuels and high-value chemicals has become an important development direction. Among them, bio-fermentation ethanol as a typical renewable bio-fuel and chemical raw material, its large-scale application has important significance to reduce the dependence on fossil resources. However, the fermentation product is usually a dilute aqueous solution with an ethanol mass fraction of about 5%-15%, and it is difficult to separate by conventional distillation due to the strong hydrogen bond interaction between ethanol and water molecules to form azeotrope; and the energy consumption of the subsequent distillation and dehydration process accounts for a high proportion, which greatly limits its economy and large-scale application. Therefore, the development of technology for directly upgrading fermentation ethanol aqueous solution under mild conditions is of great importance to improve the utilization efficiency of biomass resources.
[0003] On the other hand, alcohol condensation reaction is the core path to prepare high-value higher alcohols, which can be synthesized by short-chain alcohol condensation-hydrogenation to branched higher alcohols. Such higher alcohols have great application potential in plasticizers, surfactants, clean fuel blending and other fields. The condensation route using renewable ethanol as raw material is more in line with the demand of green chemistry. Traditional alcohol condensation mostly uses organic solvents or pure alcohol phase systems, but there are problems such as high solvent toxicity and harsh reaction conditions. In recent years, water medium has become a new research direction due to its economic, environmental friendly, safety and other advantages, but its negative impact on catalysts is significant-the strong polarity of water easily covers the active sites of the catalyst, the hydrogen bond interaction between alcohol and water will inhibit the generation of condensation intermediates, and some catalysts are easy to hydrolyze and deactivate, resulting in insufficient efficiency and stability of water-phase condensation reaction. Especially under low temperature conditions, existing catalysts are difficult to balance the improvement of ethanol conversion rate and the control of carbon alcohol selectivity, which becomes a key bottleneck restricting the practical application of water-phase alcohol condensation. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the deficiency of harsh reaction conditions in the existing technology of ethanol low-temperature water-phase coupling to prepare carbon alcohol, the application provides a double-pore-creating pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst, which constructs a high specific surface area multi-level pore structure through the synergistic effect of double pore-creating agents, effectively enhances the mass transfer efficiency in the reaction process, and has high catalytic efficiency and strong selectivity.
[0005] The second object of the present application is to provide a preparation method of the dual-pore acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst, which is prepared by a one-pot method, is simple and easy to implement, and can completely remove sodium residues by HCl acid washing treatment, thereby avoiding the poisoning effect of alkaline sites on active centers; meanwhile, the acid washing process etches the surface of the carbon carrier, effectively reducing the particle size of the metal active component.
[0006] The third object of the present application is to provide a dual-pore acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst for catalyzing the preparation of carbon alcohol from ethanol and water, which has mild reaction conditions and can achieve high conversion rate and high selectivity at a lower temperature.
[0007] To this end, the first technical solution provided by the present application is as follows:
[0008] A dual-pore acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst, which is composed of a nanometer carbon carrier with a hierarchical pore structure and an active component of Ni in an HCP crystal phase distributed on the surface and inside the pores of the carrier; the active metal Ni loading amount is 10-20%.
[0009] Further, the average particle size of the active component Ni in the above-mentioned dual-pore acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst is 10-20 nm.
[0010] The second technical solution provided by the present application is a preparation method of the above-mentioned dual-pore acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst, which sequentially comprises the following steps:
[0011] S1: polyethyleneimine and polyvinylpyrrolidone are added to an ethanol aqueous solution to completely dissolve, then sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride are added, and an HCl solution is added to adjust the pH of the system to 7, then nickel acetylacetonate is added, and HCl is continuously added to adjust the pH of the system to 5-6, so as to ensure that the nickel is completely dissolved, then the solution is dried to obtain a Ni nanometer catalyst precursor;
[0012] S2: the Ni nanometer catalyst precursor obtained in S1 is calcined at 300-500 DEG C for 10-20 min in an inert gas, and the carbonization product is subjected to acid washing with an HCl solution for 6-12 h, and then the dual-pore acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst is obtained by suction filtration and normal temperature drying;
[0013] The mass ratio of the polyethyleneimine, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium bicarbonate, and sodium chloride is (1-1.2):(2-2.5):(4-5):(5-4).
[0014] In the application, after the multi-level porous carbon carrier constructed by the NaHCO3 / NaCl double pore-forming agent and acid washing etching, the HCP phase metal Ni is dispersed on the surface and in the pores of the carrier, effectively protecting the metal active center, so that the catalyst reduces the reaction barrier and reduces the generation of by-products under mild conditions, realizes the catalytic upgrading of low-temperature high-water-content ethanol aqueous solution.
[0015] If only sodium bicarbonate is added, the lack of template support can easily cause the collapse of the pore, leading to the embedding of active metal, the reduction of active sites and the reduction of catalytic activity; if only sodium chloride is added, the catalyst is short of micropores, the active sites are less, and the acid washing cannot reach the dense area, which can easily lead to Na + residual poisoning, reduced catalytic activity and low carbon alcohol yield.
[0016] In the application, the addition amount of sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride, the hydrochloric acid for adjusting the pH of the solution, and the carbonization temperature, carbonization time and acid washing time have an influence on the metal particle size, metal content and metal nickel crystal phase, and further have an important influence on the catalytic performance of the catalyst, thereby affecting the yield of C4+ alcohol, C6+ alcohol and C8+ alcohol.
[0017] Further, the preparation method of the above-mentioned double-pore acid-washing HCP phase Ni-based nanocatalyst comprises the following steps in sequence:
[0018] S1: polyethyleneimine and polyvinylpyrrolidone are added to an ethanol aqueous solution to completely dissolve, sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride are added, hydrochloric acid is added to adjust the pH to 7, and nickel acetylacetonate is added in portions, the pH is adjusted to 5-6 with hydrochloric acid after each addition of nickel acetylacetonate to ensure complete dissolution of the metal, and then the solution is dried to obtain a Ni nanocatalyst precursor;
[0019] S2: the Ni nanocatalyst precursor obtained in S1 is calcined at 400 DEG C for 15 min in an inert gas, and the carbonization product is acid-washed at room temperature with 0.5 mol / L HCl, and after suction filtration and room temperature drying, the double-pore acid-washing HCP phase Ni-based nanocatalyst is obtained.
[0020] Further, in the above-mentioned preparation method of the double-pore acid-washing HCP phase Ni-based nanocatalyst, the concentration of the HCl solution is 0.5-1 mol / L.
[0021] In the application, if the concentration of the hydrochloric acid for adjusting the pH of the solution is too high, the polymer will be degraded and the chloride ion will be poisoned, and the strong acid etching of the carbon skeleton will lead to imbalance of the pore size; if the concentration is too low, the nickel acetylacetonate will not be completely dissolved, the nickel particles will be aggregated, the dispersion degree will be reduced, and the catalytic activity will be attenuated.
[0022] Further, the preparation method of the double-pore pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst, the inert atmosphere is one or more of nitrogen, helium and argon.
[0023] Further, the preparation method of the double-pore pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst, the pickling temperature is room temperature.
[0024] The application also provides a double-pore pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst for catalyzing the reaction of preparing middle carbon alcohol from high water content ethanol at low temperature.
[0025] A method for preparing middle carbon alcohol from ethanol at low temperature, the double-pore pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst is used as the catalyst, water and ethanol are used as the reaction substrates to prepare middle carbon alcohol in an alkaline environment.
[0026] Further, the method for preparing middle carbon alcohol from ethanol at low temperature, the double-pore pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst is used as the catalyst, water and ethanol are used as the reaction substrates to prepare middle carbon alcohol in an alkaline environment, the reaction is carried out at 50-100 DEG C, the initial pressure is 0 MPa, the reaction is carried out for 48-96 h, the reaction kettle is cooled to room temperature after the reaction is completed, and then centrifugation and filtration are carried out, and then the liquid and the solid are collected respectively, the liquid mainly contains C4+ alcohol, C6+ alcohol and C8+ alcohol.
[0027] The mass ratio of the water, the ethanol and the double-pore pickling HCP phase Ni-based nanometer catalyst is 2.4-3.2:2.4-3:0.6-1.
[0028] Compared with the prior art, the technical scheme provided by the application has the following technical advantages:
[0029] 1. The double-pore pickling catalyst provided by the application, NaHCO3 is decomposed by heat in the carbonization process, gas is released to form microporous-mesoporous structure; NaCl is removed by pickling to leave macroporous structure, and the macroporous structure forms a hierarchical pore network with the pores generated by the decomposition of NaHCO3; the particle size of the metal active component is 10-20 nm; the double-pore forming agent cooperatively forms a high specific surface area hierarchical pore structure to strengthen the reaction mass transfer.

The specific parameters for preparing the catalysts in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-16 are shown in Table 1.
[0087] Table 1
[0088]
[0089]
[0090] The structures of the catalysts prepared in Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-16 are as follows:
[0091] (1) XRD
[0092] Figure 1 XRD patterns of the nanocatalysts prepared in Example 7, Comparative Examples 13, 14 and 15 of the present application were obtained. By analyzing the patterns, it was found that different pore-forming agents had a significant influence on the grain size of the nickel element: when a single pore-forming agent (such as NaHC03, KHCO3 or K2CO3) was used, the nickel particles were coarsened due to the disorder of the gas release process, the residual template agent and the difficulty in completely removing the potassium impurities, resulting in a grain size of the nickel particles greater than 20 nm; when NaHC03 and NaCl were used as the double pore-forming agents for pore-forming, the NaCl template could construct a through-hole macroporous structure, effectively ensuring the depth and uniformity of the pickling process, thereby completely removing the residual sodium ions and promoting the real dispersion of the nickel particles, and finally the particle size of the nickel particles could be controlled at about 10 nm, which significantly reduced the metal particle size and was beneficial to improving the accessibility of the catalytic active sites.
[0093] Figure 2 XRD patterns of the nanocatalysts prepared in Comparative Examples 6 and 9 of the present application were obtained. The patterns showed that different concentrations of hydrochloric acid had a key influence on the phase transition of the nickel metal: when the concentration of hydrochloric acid was 0.5 mol / L, the nickel metal showed a single HCP phase; when the concentration of hydrochloric acid was increased to 1 mol / L, the nickel metal was converted into a mixed FCC / HCP phase. The mechanism was that in 0.5 mol / L hydrochloric acid, hydrogen atoms could uniformly penetrate the nickel lattice, causing lattice expansion and completing the stable phase transition from FCC to HCP; in 1 mol / L high-concentration hydrochloric acid, excessive H + would dissolve the protective oxide film on the surface of the nickel, leading to a dominant corrosion reaction, and part of the FCC phase could not be completely converted and remained, while excessive hydrogen atoms were precipitated to form bubbles, which destroyed the integrity of the lattice, and finally formed a mixed phase structure.
[0094] Figure 3 XRD patterns of the nanocatalysts prepared in Example 1 and 5, Comparative Examples 6 and 16 of the present application were obtained. By comparing the patterns of the catalysts before and after acid washing, it was found that the double-pore-forming catalyst without acid washing had a large number of impurity peaks, the HCP phase characteristic peak of the nickel metal was not clearly shown, and the actual loading amount of the nickel metal was low due to the impurities introduced by the pore-forming agent; after acid washing, the HCP phase characteristic peak of the nickel metal was significantly exposed, indicating that the acid washing process effectively removed the impurities and promoted the exposure of the active sites. Further analysis of the influence of the acid washing time on the catalysts found that as the acid washing time was prolonged, the loading amount of the nickel metal decreased slightly, but the anchoring effect of the mesoporous structure on the impurities was significantly enhanced, which was more conducive to improving the catalytic performance.
[0095] (2) Catalyst morphology
[0096] Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image of the nanocatalyst prepared in Example 1 of the present application was obtained. As shown in the image,Figure 4 It can be seen that the metal nanoparticles in the catalyst have a particle size of about 15 nm and are uniformly distributed on the surface of the carbon carrier. Figure 5 Further, the clear spherical nickel particles are closely intertwined with the light-colored carbon skeleton structure, confirming that the acid washing process effectively removes sodium salt residues, and the nickel metal is not completely wrapped by the layered nanocarbon but is fully exposed on the surface of the carrier. This structural design significantly increases the contact area of the nickel active sites with the reactants, which is beneficial to improving the catalytic activity.
[0097] Figure 6 A scanning electron microscope image of the nanocatalyst prepared in Example 1 is shown in the figure. It can be seen that the pore structure formed by the synergistic effect of the two pore-forming agents is mainly mesoporous and macroporous, and the etching effect of the acid washing process on the surface of the catalyst effectively controls the pore structure and surface morphology of the catalyst. The above structural characteristics provide more optimal mass transfer channels and adsorption sites for ethanol molecules, thereby promoting the efficient conversion of ethanol.
[0098] Example 8
[0099] The present example provides a method for preparing carbon alcohol at low temperature by coupling high water content ethanol, which comprises adding 0.8 g of the dual-pore-forming acid-washed HCP phase Ni-based nanocatalyst prepared in Example 1, 3 g of water, 3 g of ethanol, and 0.52 g of sodium hydroxide into a 25 ml steel magnetic stirring reaction kettle, and carrying out the reaction at a reaction temperature of 100°C and an initial pressure of 0 MPa for 72 h. After the reaction, the reaction kettle is cooled to room temperature, and then centrifugation and filtration are performed to obtain liquid and catalyst solid phases.

[0143]
[0144] As can be seen from the experimental data in Table 2, the catalyst in the present application has a significant effect on the conversion rate of ethanol, the selectivity of C4+, C6+, and C8+. The comparison results of Example 6 and Comparative Examples 10, 11, and 12 show that, under the premise that other conditions remain unchanged, the synergistic pore-forming effect of the dual pore-forming agent is significantly better than that of the single pore-forming agent. Specifically, the gas generated by the decomposition of NaHCO3 can form irregular mesoporous structures, and NaCl acts as a hard template to occupy space. After acid washing to remove the NaCl template, the original occupied pores are completely exposed, and the residual sodium salt impurities in the pore-forming process are effectively removed, avoiding the poisoning of the active sites by basic sites, which ultimately greatly improves the ethanol conversion rate compared to the single pore-forming agent system.
[0145] The comparison of Example 1 with Examples 2, 3, and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 shows that, under the premise that other conditions remain unchanged, the addition ratio of the dual pore-forming agent has a key influence on the catalytic performance. When the addition amount of the dual pore-forming agent is too low, the amount of gas released is insufficient and the support effect of the template is weakened, resulting in incomplete mesoporous structures. When the addition amount is too high, the excess pore-forming agent will form weak areas inside the carbon skeleton, which can easily cause the collapse of the pore wall after acid washing, and the residual sodium will poison the active sites, ultimately leading to a decrease in the ethanol conversion rate.
[0146] The comparison between Example 1 and Example 4 further verifies the importance of the concentration of hydrochloric acid for adjusting the pH of the solution. When the concentration of hydrochloric acid for adjusting the pH of the solution is too high, although H + The nickel lattice can be etched more efficiently to reduce the particle size, but excessive H + will destroy the pore structure of the carbon carrier, resulting in some active sites being covered by the carbon skeleton, thereby reducing the catalytic efficiency.
[0147] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 shows that the selection of the washing solvent has a non-negligible influence on the performance of the catalyst. Although the dual-pore catalyst washed with ultrapure water and ethanol has a similar particle size to the nickel particles washed with hydrochloric acid, ultrapure water and ethanol cannot effectively remove residual sodium ions, resulting in continuous poisoning of the active center by sodium residues; acid washing can completely remove sodium impurities, significantly improving the catalytic activity and C8+ alcohol selectivity.
[0148] The comparison between Example 1 and Example 5, Comparative Examples 6 and 7 reveals the regulation of acid washing time on the catalytic performance. When the acid washing time is too short, the sodium salt of the pore-forming agent cannot be completely removed, resulting in partial poisoning of the active sites; when the acid washing time is too long, the carbon skeleton will be excessively eroded by the acid solution, causing the collapse of the pores and the generation of a large amount of residual chloride ions, which not only reduces the specific surface area of the catalyst, but also causes secondary poisoning of the active sites due to the adsorption of chloride ions, ultimately leading to a decrease in the selectivity of carbon alcohol.
