Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste gas purification catalyst materials, and in particular to a ruthenium-based catalyst for purifying waste gas from the pyrolysis of wind turbine blades, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the wind power industry, the environmental treatment of a large number of retired wind turbine blades has become a serious challenge. Pyrolysis technology is one of the mainstream methods for treating blades, but the exhaust gas it produces is complex, often containing VOCs, CO, H2, CH4, as well as halogenated compounds such as bromine (Br) produced by the decomposition of epoxy resin, making it difficult to treat.
[0003] Currently, the catalysts used for treating organic waste gas mainly include ordinary metal oxide catalysts (such as CuFe2O4, MnO). x Metal oxide catalysts (such as Pt and Pd) have problems such as high ignition temperature and low catalytic activity. For recalcitrant components (such as CH4) and halogen-containing waste gases, the purification effect is not good and they are easily poisoned and deactivated. Although noble metal catalysts have high activity, they are expensive and equally sensitive to halogens, which limits their application in large-scale industrial waste gas treatment.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of catalyst that is highly active, resistant to poisoning, has a long lifespan, and is relatively cost-controllable, in order to solve the technical bottleneck of purifying exhaust gas from the pyrolysis of wind turbine blades. Summary of the Invention

[0009] (2) After the reaction is complete, cool to room temperature, add mixed solution to dissolve the crude catalyst product, and then refrigerate the pressure tube to allow crystals to precipitate.
[0010] (3) Crystals were obtained by filtration and separation, and then washed and vacuum dried to obtain ruthenium-based catalyst.
[0011] Furthermore, the mass ratio of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) to 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinemethyl)ethane is 1:(2-3).
[0012] Furthermore, the bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) is obtained by recycling and extracting ruthenium-containing waste.
[0013] Furthermore, in step (1), the reaction temperature in the high-temperature magnetic stirrer is 130-150°C, the reaction time is 2-4 hours, and the stirring speed is 600-700 rpm.
[0014] Furthermore, the inert gas includes one of nitrogen, helium, and argon.
[0015] Furthermore, the solvent includes one of toluene, dichloromethane, and tetrahydrofuran.

[0025] Figure 1This is a flowchart illustrating the preparation method of the ruthenium-based catalyst for purifying exhaust gas from the pyrolysis of wind turbine blades according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0026] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0027] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes the ruthenium-based catalyst for purifying exhaust gas from the pyrolysis of wind turbine blades, its preparation method, and its application.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the preparation method of the ruthenium-based catalyst for purifying exhaust gas from wind turbine blade pyrolysis according to the present invention includes the following steps:
[0029] (1) Under inert gas, a solid raw material consisting of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) and 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinemethyl)ethane was added to a pressure-resistant tube, a solvent was added, and the tube was sealed and placed in a high-temperature magnetic stirrer to react and obtain a crude catalyst product.
[0030] (2) After the reaction is complete, cool to room temperature, add mixed solution to dissolve the crude catalyst product, and then refrigerate the pressure tube to allow crystals to precipitate.
[0031] (3) Crystals were obtained by filtration and separation, and then washed and vacuum dried to obtain ruthenium-based catalyst.
[0032] Step (1) is the process of obtaining the crude catalyst product by reacting. A solid raw material composed of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) and 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinemethyl)ethane is weighed, and the solid raw material is added to a pressure-resistant tube under inert gas conditions. A solvent is added, and then the pressure-resistant tube is placed in a high-temperature magnetic stirrer to react and obtain the crude catalyst product.
[0033] The core of the reaction between bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) and 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinemethyl)ethane is the substitution of the unstable 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand by the phosphine ligand to generate a well-defined ruthenium(II)phosphine complex with catalytic activity.
[0034] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) to 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinemethyl)ethane is 1:(2-3). It is understood that the mass ratio of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) to 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinemethyl)ethane can be 1:2, 1:2.5, 1:3, or any value within the range of any two of these values.
[0035] In some embodiments, bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) is obtained by recycling ruthenium-containing waste, thereby reducing costs, wherein the ruthenium-containing waste includes waste electronic products or waste catalysts.

[0039] Step (2) is the crystal precipitation process. After the reaction is completed, the mixture is cooled to room temperature, a mixed solution is added to dissolve the crude catalyst product, and then the pressure-resistant tube is refrigerated to allow the crystals to precipitate.
[0040] In some embodiments, the mixed solution is a mixture of dichloromethane and pentane, wherein the amount of dichloromethane added per 100 mg of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) is 1.6 to 2.4 mL, and the amount of pentane added per 100 mg of bis(2-methylallyl)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ruthenium(II) is 3.6 to 4.4 mL.

It is understood that the refrigeration temperature can be -80°C, -70°C, -60°C, or any combination of two values; the refrigeration time can be 48 hours, 60 hours, 72 hours, or any combination of two values.
[0042] Step (3) is the vacuum drying process of the crystal. After the crystal precipitates, it is separated by filtration to obtain the crystal, and then washed and vacuum dried to obtain the ruthenium-based catalyst.
[0043] In some embodiments, washing is performed 2 to 4 times with cold pentane.
[0044] In some embodiments, the vacuum drying temperature is 60–70°C, and the time is 10–12 hours. It is understood that the vacuum drying temperature can be 60°C, 65°C, 70°C, or any combination of two values; the vacuum drying time can be 10 hours, 11 hours, 12 hours, or any combination of two values.

[0071] Test case
[0072] At an air speed of 10,000 m 3 h -1Under the specified conditions, catalytic combustion tests were conducted using the catalyst prepared in Example 1, a commercially available vanadium-titanium catalyst, and a commercially available alumina catalyst. The test results are shown in Table 1 below. T50 is the reaction temperature required for the catalyst to achieve a conversion rate of 50%, and T90 is the reaction temperature required for the catalyst to achieve a conversion rate of 90%. The exhaust gas contained CO, CH4, C3H6, toluene, and 100 ppm HBr. The commercially available vanadium-titanium catalyst had a pore size of 30*30 and a pore diameter of 4.2 mm, while the commercially available alumina catalyst had a pore volume ≥0.45 ml / g.
[0073] Table 1:
[0074] Example 1 Commercially available vanadium-titanium catalysts Commercially available alumina catalysts CO ignition temperature 160 230 240 T50 temperature of CO 185 265 285 T90 temperature of CO 210 300 325 ignition temperature of toluene 190 265 345 T50 temperature of toluene 230 290 385 T90 temperature of toluene 270 325 420 HBr removal rate >95% <50% <70%
[0075] As can be seen from Table 1, the T90 temperatures of toluene and CO of the catalyst in Example 1 are lower than those of the commercial vanadium-titanium catalyst and the alumina catalyst, and the removal rate of HBr is higher. It is evident that the catalyst in Example 1 can significantly reduce the ignition temperature and complete oxidation temperature of the pyrolysis waste gas. In the simulated waste gas containing HBr, the activity remains stable, while the activity of the commercial vanadium-titanium catalyst and the alumina catalyst decreases significantly.
[0076] In addition, the catalyst of Example 1 showed no significant activity decay during a continuous 100-hour test, demonstrating excellent performance and stability.
